Controversy

The following section contains explicit content. Read at your discretion.

Baabara saying the modified greeting and catchphrase.

Baabara was featured on gaming news websites in December 2008 when Nintendo released fourteen review copies of Animal Crossing: Wild World to the press to demonstrate its player data transfer feature with Animal Crossing: City Folk. Unbeknownst to Nintendo, Baabara's catchphrase was tampered with; what should have been "daahling" was "Ñ****á", a racial slur. The slur was modified, likely to bypass the game's profanity filter, which prevents players from setting catchphrases and greetings to anything deemed inappropriate. Additionally, her greeting was changed to ♥ u long time!!, a quote from the film Full Metal Jacket that is used in a sexual context. Nintendo responded by issuing an apology to the media and recalling all offending copies of the game from the press, explaining that the game's Wi-Fi features (which allow catchphrases to be spread) were to blame.
