This week, Nintendo's official website was updated with new guidelines in place for tournaments. The guidelines offer some strict rules and regulations to follow for groups planning to hold small scale community tournaments throughout the world. There are plenty of things listed that are to be expected, including an expectation that organizers"will not tolerate harassment or discrimination of any kind" and"not permit gambling or the use of alcohol or drugs.
AccessibilityOne particular rule that's drawing a lot of concern from fans is a prohibition of"game consoles, accessories and software not licensed by Nintendo." Essentially what this means is that tournaments are not to allow the use of third-party controllers. Some have noted that this would block the use of accessibility controller options, ultimately excluding disabled gamers from participating in community tournaments.
