Mario Party 8 in UK shelves again by August 3
Finally, Mario’s going to bring his party back to the UK. After Mario Party 8 got pulled out due to the word “spastic” found in earlier UK copies of the game, Nintendo Company Ltd. announced that the video game will be re-launched on August 3.
While steps have already been taken to remove the offensive word, a spokesman from Nintendo said that they cannot guarantee that all of the copies or Mario Party 8 have been returned and corrected, that there may be some initial copies in circulation.
There will be no changes in pricing, and Nintendo said that the stock levels were unaffected, despite the re-launch.
