“When Warner Bros. first developed the Mortal Combat 11 and ran it on the Nintendo Switch, I flew downstairs and met with the team in Southern California. One of the executives there met me and showed me the game. Are you sure? ‘ I said, ‘Yeah, we absolutely love this game.’
“He was worried, because it’s a mature rated title, it’s not Nintendo friendly.
As highlighted by Hawkins, the Eleventh entry was well received when it finally arrived in Switzerland – once again proving the presence of visitors to this type of content on Nintendo hardware.
When the Mortal Combat series first launched, Nintendo was known for censoring games due to its own family-friendly policies and the lack of a video game age rating system at the time.
