Hahahah, wow. I love how things like this can escalate.
I mean, darknessslayer is right. If I were insane enough to be a pedo, I would worry about the multiple-personality-disordered Hannah Montana/Miley Stewart/Destiny Cyrus. Wow. Three! She kicks my arse to the curb... xD

Hmm... why do I get the awful feeling that Jack Thompson will love to argue this for his ideas? And so would Glenn Beck. And maybe Nancy Grace. And... nevermind...
If ya don't who any of these folks are, look 'em up and see what I mean.

Perhaps I should go thank this Andy for bringing something to light that even I didn't know about myself. Go figure!
"Hello, I'm here to turn myself in. Apparently I'm a pedo. No, I don't think I'm attracted to young children. Nope, never raped or taken advantage of one. No child pr0n either, but I DO play video games!"
well, then we'd better ban almost all FUN games, because, for instance, Pokemon promotes keeping wild animals in small enclosures, using them for violence, and running away from home.
Isn't there enough trouble in the world already without LOOKING for more senseless drama? If people were as interested in, say... ending world hunger, as they were stopping every minor percieved sociatal infraction, no one would ever go unfed.
Oh yes, that is the only reason I would ever play Animal Crosssing. nevermind the fun of the game, its the small childeren that get to me. (note the scarasm) People are idoits, they need to stop over anaylizing every little thing. If they want something to complain about, why don' they go after Hannah Montana, she is teaching your kids its ok to have a double life.
That's ridiculous. One, those characters are in no way appealing sexually. Two, there's the Friend Code system like you mentioned. And three, adults have every right to enjoy something as frivolous as writing letters to talking to animals. Is he trying to say adults should only be playing games that are violent? It's nice to have to sit down once in a while and relax with something silly like Animal Crossing.

I side with Shin...if anyone's a pedo it's Tom Nook, not the adults buying this game.

Really? I just thought it was because I like to have fun and I'm incredibly immature? Anyone hear of the Peter Pan effect?

Oh god, more useless arguments about why everyone is a pedophile. If people weren't so obsessed with it, I'm sure it wouldn't happen as much.
I bet you anything they're just hiding their own fetishes.

Oh, also, Animal Crossing promotes bestiality and nudity, what with the animals going nekkid on their bottom half most of the time.
That's half the reason I play the game!
The other half is so I can prey on little kids. Of course.
Nothin' like AC when I'm in the mood for some good old fashioned bestiality and pedo!
I'd rather see in shades of gray.

This is the stupidest bit of video game news I've heard all month. Wonder what will top it in April?

I'm pretty sure Tom Nook is a pedo, actually.
