NY Times: Nintendo Will Not Develop Game About The Holocaust (Update)

By  •  Wii

Last month, when a 21-year-old British video game developer named Luc Bernard posted a description on his blog of a Holocaust-themed game he is writing that describes how the Nazis tortured children, the reaction was swift and visceral.“Disgusting concept. Some people have no shame,” wrote one video game blog reader. Another called it “pretty creepy.”

The game, called Imagination Is the Only Escape, apparently will not be distributed within the United States. It casts players in the role of a young boy in eastern France during the German occupation who seeks escape from real-life horror through a fantasy world.

Darkly illustrated and full of gruesome historical facts, it is a far cry from the normal fare written for the Nintendo DS, which tends toward games featuring cute ponies and the like (DS stands for double screen).

So don’t expect the Holocaust game to be popping up on the shelves of Toys “R” Us anytime soon. “At this time, there are no plans for this game to be released for any Nintendo platforms in North America,” the company said in a statement.
