I don't know the context so I could be missing something, but traditionally any time Nintendo censors something, it's because they still view themselves as a family-friend toy company and they're fiercely protective of this brand reputation. This would also explain why they banned the trans stuff so quickly.
Later, Nintendo issued a statement to Kotaku, confirming they would be moving employees and operations to headquarters (Redmond, Washington and Vancouver, British Columbia) and will be closing smaller satellite offices over time; including Toronto, Ontario.
Toronto and cali... arent they more woke than the other office locales?
100 ppl in an office in redwood city would cost at least 15 mil per year, if they arent producing at least 5x that with their labor then it isnt worth it.
They have an office in Washington state that they can pay workers 30% less at
Based.
Nintendo also banned the trans flag from smash bros custom stages calling it a "political statement".
Excellent news.
I play a good amount of Splatoon and had to turn off the banners. That cancer is EVERYWHERE.

Wasn't Mythra done to preserve the CERO rating?
Cutting out the california cancer is a good move for the long term health of the company.
Good
Anyone want to speculate why? The article mentions 100 people, that seems such a small number.
They're just satellite offices.

Until they fire every single employee in Treehouse, I wouldn't assume "based" anything.
We can cheer steps in the right direction.
Great news. Now close Redmond as well. The less westerners are involved, the better.
Fantastic news. Helps keep leftist politics away from the company
