Mario Party 8 ban

Apparently, they banned it for the use of the word "spastic". -Cobold (talk · contribs) 07:48, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
- What does "Spastic" mean? My Bloody Valentine

- It's a disabled person of some kind, but the word has been evolved to a heavy curse word, something they didn't think of in the British localization. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 07:52, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
- I think it was overreacting, too. But don't worry, Nintendo will for sure release a version without the word in it. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 07:54, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
- Man, that is ridiculous. But, I guess I can't blame the British, after all, if it is a curse word, I guess they don't want to expose their children to it. But, believe me, we Aussies aren't smart either. My Bloody Valentine
