After Nintendo released “The Legend of Zelda Kingdom Tears” last week, it received rave reviews around the world and was well received by game fans, but players in some regions were angered when they opened the game. After some players in China started playing the game, they found that the words “light” and “time” appeared in a line of dialogue, so they called for a boycott.

This is not the first time Chinese netizens have called for a boycott of the game “The Legend of Zelda Kingdom Tears”. Long before the game was released, when Nintendo first announced the release date, some Chinese netizens said that the release date of “Tears of the Kingdom” was insulting to China. Nintendo announced earlier that it would be released to the public on May 12, 2023. Chinese netizens immediately felt offended, because May 12 is the date of the “Wenchuan Earthquake” in China.

Some Chinese netizens also believe that the game has been sneaked away for a long time, and because the plot of the game involves an earthquake, Nintendo still insists on waiting until May 12 to release it with ulterior motives.

In addition, “The Legend of Zelda Kingdom Tears” has a large number of counterfeit and sneaked versions in China, and the counterfeit players actually sued the genuine players for breaking the law. Due to China’s strict censorship of foreign publications, the sale of unapproved parallel games in China violates the “Notice on the Announcement of the Prohibited Sales of Information on New Overseas Publications Purchasing Agents” issued by the Chinese e-commerce website Taobao in 2017. Counterfeit players report on Taobao.com that sells genuine stores.
