So, aside from kotaku being just awful, what specifically got them blacklisted by Nintendo?
No points for guessing.
See, I think being able to play the game on my beastly gaming rig is a selling point. I might try this with Tears of the Kingdom, if it's viable. It's a pity I can't just get some sort of adapter to run the game off the original cartridge, but I understand why Nintendo doesn't want that to exist.
My limited understanding is they wrote some of their usual bullshit but aimed it at Nintendo for not being diverse or woke enough or something in some of their reviews of Nintendo games, so rather than artificially souring the market based on that leading up to a game’s launch, Nintendo has been flipping them the bird ever since with sending them anything, prerelease or otherwise.
Kotaku would have just said that it’s still a regressive game for not making Zelda the lead or Link black or something. And that the only person of color in the whole game is usually the villain.
