Nintendo has responded to the controversial change to Dispatch that censors the Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 editions. Dispatch arrived on Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 earlier this week, and while the acclaimed superhero adventure game finally arriving on a handheld was an exciting prospect (I was personally waiting on the Switch version to finally play it), it arrived with the news that – unlike the PS5 and PC versions, which have the option to toggle nudity and other adult content – the game would be completely censored on Nintendo platforms. Despite all the hentai games, Nintendo won't allow episodic superhero hit Dispatch on Switch uncensored "A single word in more than 100,000 words of localization" got a bestselling Switch shopkeeping sim removed from the eShop Nintendo fulfills a 12-year-old promise by bringing non-binary characters and queer relationships to Tomodachi Life Many wondered why Dispatch was affected by this change, while Cyberpunk 2077, which features pretty much everything that's been censored in Dispatch, was marketed as one of the Switch 2's killer apps. As VGC explains, the Japanese ratings board CERO is very strict about nudity in games. The Nintendo eShop – no matter which region you buy the game from – will default the game to the region your system settings are in (so buying a game off the Japanese eShop and playing it on your UK account will default you to the UK version). However, in Cyberpunk 2077's case, CD Projekt Red released two versions of the game, with the Japanese-only edition removing nudity and decapitations. Given that CD Projekt Red is a major publisher and AdHoc is an independent studio, the cost of handling two separate editions may have been deemed prohibitive, especially since it would require two separate submissions for both the game and any updates. Dispatch is styled like “a premium animated television show” because devs didn’t want players to reject it.
