Yeah, agree but since Nintendo was not the developer and the developer is off Nintendo it would make sense that where ever that developer resides, would most likely be where the game or application would release 1st.

But it really does not matter pretty much anyway, because it's been a certified Hit where ever it's been released sofar.

They removed curves and made em look sickly. But hey now you can make a morbidly obese character, or a very buff chick. Tell me how I'm the crazy one, and how there nothing wrong with this. Gaslight me by asking why I'm bothered by video game characters not looking sexy and by telling me that i don't know how real women look like. Smh
