Nintendo to patch ‘bug’ that allows for same-sex couples in 3DS game
Nintendo Co. Ltd. has removed a “bug” from the Nintendo 3DS title, Tomodachi Collection: New Life, which allowed players to create same-sex couples in the game.
Players noticed this was an option when they began to migrate their virtual Mii avatars from the Nintendo Wii U to the portable version of the game.
In a statement issued by Nintendo and translated by Kotaku, the Japanese company says the patch is meant to fix a number of problems in the game, among them “human relations that become strange.”Twitter users have already shown their disdain for Nintendo’s move to fix what many users had considered a feature of the game.
