GN 1.0 / 2.0

A portion of a Chris Kohler interview with id’s John Carmack…

JC: We’re hoping to do a DS game version of Orcs and Elves, moving over and enhancing the cell phone game on there, which would be our first real direct entry back into the Nintendo world. We’ve never had a close, good relationship with Nintendo from like way back, when we had some back experiences really early on…

CK: Like when they made you put rats in…

JC: …Wolfenstein stuff…

id CEO Todd Hollenshead: …green blood…

JC: …and we were always just kind of peeved at the whole Nickelodeon censor arrangement with Nintendo. So we’ve kept them at arm’s length for many console generations now.
