Mario Party 8 ban
http://themushroomkingdom.net/news.shtml#10576

Apparently, they banned it for the use of the word "spastic". - 07:48, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
 * What does "Spastic" mean?
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spastic
 * It's a disabled person of some kind, but the word has been evolved to a heavy curse word, something they didn't think of in the British localization. - 07:52, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
 * I think it was overreacting, too. But don't worry, Nintendo will for sure release a version without the word in it. - 07:54, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
 * Man, that is ridiculous. But, I guess I can't blame the British, after all, if it is a curse word, I guess they don't want to expose their children to it. But, believe me, we Aussies aren't smart either.
 * It isn't even used as a curse word. Kamek says he wants to "make the train spastic". That's not all too hard. - 07:59, 26 July 2007 (EDT)
 * I know it isn't used in that context, but, if the OTHER context is a swear word, you wouldn't want to expose your children to it, even if it wasn't the curse context. I'm still confused on why SMRPG was never released in the PAL Region.
