    Binding of Isaac 3DS Refused by Nintendo Because of "Religious Concerns"

    Edmund McMillen, the creator of The Binding of Isaac, revealed via Twitter today that Nintendo has flat out refused to allow the game to be released on the 3DS.

    McMillen revealed the bad news and then later praised the fact that Steam exists where his game is still selling quite well.

    Attention: After a long internal debate Nintendo has decided NOT to allow the Binding of Isaac on the 3ds.

    As many assumed the reasons were due to the games "questionable religious content". Thank GOD Steam exists!

    Seriously though, i gotta again publicly thank steam for fully supporting Isaac and not requiring ESRB or censoring its published games.

    Just one of many reasons why Steam is the top dog of digital distribution.


    I'm going to assume that given how popular The Binding of Isaac ended up being, that Nintendo simply hates money? It's ok for a bunch of crap, shovelware to be released, but not an actual game that has even a hint of mature content? I don't understand!

    The Binding of Isaac can be yours through Steam for just $4.99. If you spend an extra $0.99 you can get the game AND the soundtrack. The game is not for those who suck at games. It is hard but quite enjoyable in the long run.
