Is this a joke?

As a person who grew up in a house with only a mother, I must say I still wouldn't have wanted this game. Sounds kind of...boring.

In any case fathers are overrated anyways.

Umm, this is actually pretty insulting. I guess it's probably not targeted specifically at people who grew up without fathers...probably just people in general, but still... I grew up in a house full of sisters and my mom, and there's no way I'd ever play this. And totally disagree with ya there Geoff. You should read To Own a Dragon by Donald Miller. I guarantee you'll relate to 95% of what he says in the book.

Learning to shave from that old Simpsons episode when Homer taught Bart instead of having your own pops show you how to use a razor?

:(

I grew up in a house with 2 parents, but I must say that this post kind of crosses the line, even for NWF. Whats worse is that the 'humour' has no point but to reference Father's Day. You guys are better than this. Unneeded, possibly offensive humour only works on television.

I didn't even learn from the Simpsons. One day I just started cutting my face up until I found out how to do it right.

It may not be that funny but it sure isn't that offensive either... infact it's not offensive at all. Lighten up. Geez...

I can assure everyone it is a joke, and in fact was not a rip on Nintendo at all. It was a commentary on all the bad father's out there who dump their children in front of a video game system instead of being their dad.

How can I say this, It's was my idea. I wish that the original poster had included the complete text of the site.

nintendadz.cwbuechler.com

BTW I am a divorced/remarried father of two, I know of what I speak.

those scenes weren't meant to be offensive; they are specific experiences that i picked out of my own life, growing up without a father. yeah, they're pretty pitiful, but i found them funny looking back on them now.

K now that I go back and read it, it is kind of funny.

That was hilarious! It's making fun of the stereotypical bad father.
