On: Ninjhax – 3DS Homebrew Exploit

[jsheard]

Nintendo wouldn't allow Isaac on their systems, but two years later the developers of the remake are teasing 3DS and Wii U versions.

Either Nintendo have lowered their standards or the increased popularity of the game makes the potential backlash a worthwhile risk.

Nintendo allows games like Senran Kagura to be published on the 3DS, even outside of Japan, so while I'd be happy to be proven wrong, I really doubt that they had any kind of moral dilemma about The Binding of Isaac.

I think you guys are forgetting that Isaac was a Flash game. Porting it to any mobile platform would have required a C or C++ rewrite... which, hey, what do you know, was just released as The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth...

The specific reason they gave was "questionable religious content", and none of the religious themes were toned down in the remake.

Oops, my mistake.

Well, at least that's encouraging. :) Thanks.
