Just in case anyone wonders what the incident was that prompted the fatality removal. That incident was horiffic, but I still think it is a wrong decision to remove them. Again it is all down to political correctness - surely it would have been better to lock them out and then hand out a code later to unlock them or something. Also, if they are worried about kids playing this game, I don't know too many 12 year olds who can afford a home cart costing $368 to be honest...
Regardless of the fatality thing, the bugs in the game are still pretty unacceptable, and although they are fixing that bug in Japan (people can return carts) there is still no word about overseas customers. They really need to put out some kind of statement for the rest of us asap imho.
