Alters Grandma's Dialogue On Non-Switch Platforms","summary":"Konami released 'Ganbare Goemon Daishugo!' on July 2 for Nintendo Switch, PS5, and PC. In versions other than Switch, an old woman's dialogue referencing 'Famicom' and 'Game Boy' is redacted with asterisks, and a Super Famicom controller graphic is replaced with an original coin-shaped controller. The changes are likely due to Nintendo trademark considerations.","whyItMatters":"The re-release, the first console Ganbare Goemon collection in 21 years, shows how multi-platform ports of classic Nintendo-published games require careful handling of trademarked console names and imagery.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eKonami released \u0026#39;Ganbare Goemon Daishugo!\u0026#39; on July 2 for Nintendo Switch, PS5, and PC. The collection bundles 13 series titles from the Famicom, Game Boy, and Super Famicom eras, developed by M2. On non-Switch platforms, an old woman\u0026#39;s dialogue in \u0026#39;Ganbare Goemon: Yukihime Kyushutsu Emaki\u0026#39; that originally mentioned \u0026#39;Famicom\u0026#39; and \u0026#39;Game Boy\u0026#39; now shows those words replaced with asterisks. In \u0026#39;Ganbare Goemon: Kirakira Dochu - Boku ga Dancer ni Natta Wake\u0026#39;, a Super Famicom controller graphic in a mini-game explanation has been changed to an original coin-shaped controller. Platform trademarks have also been removed from instruction manuals. The Switch version retains the original text and graphics. The changes are likely out of respect for Nintendo\u0026#39;s trademarks, similar to Capcom\u0026#39;s approach with the \u0026#39;Mega Man Legacy Collection\u0026#39; on non-Nintendo platforms.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"Konami's Ganbare Goemon Daishugo! redacts Nintendo references on PS5 and PC.
