New Jersey Video Game Law To Regulate Non-Existent Games

Posted: 14 Apr 2013 06:53 PM PDT

Assemblywoman Linda Stender wants to make it illegal to operate arcade games rated M or AO by the ESRB anywhere in a public space. Fortunately, the ESRB doesn’t rate arcade games, making this an exercise in futility likely brought about by the recent ban of light gun games in Massachusets public spaces.

Animal Crossing New Leaf Making Mr. Resetti Optional

Posted: 14 Apr 2013 06:23 PM PDT

Animal Crossing’s Mr. Resetti is something of an Animal crossing institution. Despite annoyingly blasting ever larger dollops of text at the player when the game is reset without saving, he’s as much a part of Animal Crossing as Tom Nook’s enforced loans or a turnip market crash. However, making little girls cry seemingly turned him into a liability Nintendo can no longer ignore. As Mayor, the player will be able to build a Reset Surveillance Centre if they want the character in their game.

However, due to licensing issues, the developer won’t be able to keep its promise of DRM-free content past the first bit of DLC, the Berlin Campaign.
