Wii #0593 - Mario Party 8 (Version 1.1) (Europe)

[Raylene2K7]

I'd rather like to see a new release of SUPER PAPER MARIO (without the Level 2.2 bug) and GUITAR HERO 3 (Stereo)

Check the NFO. They changed "spastic" to "erratic."

Also it's an amazing NFO.

 

[OuahOuah]

I'm french and "spastique" does not exist for me

I don"t even know this english term...

 

[kallekall]

It is spastisk ^^ and means "Föråldrad term för muskelryckningar, ofta orsakade av CP-skador"

I *think* I have a fixed SPM disc, at least it sais 0A-1 on the bottom of the disc. You think the changes are so minor that it's possible to create a small PPF patch?

The old (1.0) version is out in the US. I doubt Nintendo will change it since "spastic" isn't a bad word over here.

QUOTE

The word spastic is used differently depending on location which has led to some controversy and misunderstanding.

...

The term can also be used in a pejorative context and all its various colloquial diminutives such as spaz carry this sense. Their level of severity depends on whether one understands them as they are used in the United States or the United Kingdom [1]. In the UK they are not used in polite society and are considered highly abusive terms that generally denote people deemed to be mentally or behaviorally deficient. In the US they are more closely associated with hyperactivity or clumsiness and carry little offensive connotations.

What the fuck?

Why are the game companies bending over so much just for a single word that isn't even THAT offensive?

 

[OSW]

hilarious NFO! good on them.

Oh Yeah that's great! A wrong word, game changed, ISO immediately available. Guitar Hero 3 totally messed up with mono and no fixed ISO in sight... I'm sad and going to cry my eyes out

 

[Lumstar]

Yeah... This is due to differences in US and UK culture. They used the US translation, which had a word the UK feels more strongly about.

 

[Deleted User]

Yeah ... I think the word "spastic" in the UK is similar to using the word "retard" in North America. Is this correct?

 

[Dack]

Spastic, in the UK, usually refers to people suffering from cerebral palsy. One charity "The Spastic Society" changed it's name to 'Scope' just to get rid of it from above their shops.

It is considered offensive over here (my son suffers from a mild cerebral palsy and I wouldn't like him to be called it)

And the original rhyme sucked anyways.

Considering this has been out since, according to that one page linked to earlier, August 2007, it's not really "immediately".
