Nintendo asks Animal Crossing not to be a political tool
Launching the antaranews.com site, Nintendo as the developer and publisher of the Animal Crossing: New Horizons game asked not to be used as a campaign tool, especially for political purposes.
“Our services and products are generally for personal use only, we understand that there are businesses and organizations that want to use or refer to games for their business,” said Nintendo, quoted by The Verge.
Animal Crossing: New Horizons launched in March 2021 for Nintendo Switch. Nintendo prohibits the use of this game to serve as a marketing campaign, especially for politics.
This ban comes after the President of the United States elected Joe Biden used this game as a campaign some time ago. Nintendo insists that the use of Animal Crossing to be such a political tool requires their written permission.
Previously, Nintendo had banned content that was vulgar, discriminatory and offensive because the Animal Crossing: New Horizons game had an E rating. In addition, users are also prohibited from obtaining financial benefits from the game, including selling customized designs or advertising revenue.
If these rules are violated by the user, Nintendo states that it will block the business of the user who has used the game.
As you know, Animal Crossing: New Horizons is a life simulation video game. The game is the title in the fifth series of the Animal Crossing series. This game is available worldwide on March 20, 2021 on the Nintendo Switch platform.
