Comic attempt - MP8 — Description
Over here, in the UK, Mario Party 8 was recalled due to a "technical error". It was, in fact, that in the game's dialogue an insulting word was present. Although the word in the USA, or anywhere else I think, isn't an insult. On the train level, when you go on a ? space, a magikoopa will appear and move the carriages around and he "Magikoopa magic! Turn the train spastic! Make this ticket tragic!". Now, the word "spastic" (or "spasticated" or the slang, "spaz") over here basically means retarded. So he essentially said "make the train retarded". In the "fixed" version it was replaced with "erratic".

I loved drawing the expressions. Most are just manga-style, but I have to credit Scott Dewitt 's awesome drawing style for Mario's expression, as I kinda stole it.
