Nintendo Switch Sports Players Are Making A Mockery Of The Profanity Filter

thegamer.com:

Quite early in my Nintendo Switch Sports career, I found my perfect title. Much like in Animal Crossing and several other family friendly games, your name has strict profanity filters on it, and you can choose a title to be known as from a pre-selected list, and can create a few different combos from the list. As you play online, you can unlock more titles as part of the needlessly complicated rewards system. I will never change mine, as 'Fan of Myself' is just too perfect, but what's most interesting is the creative ways people are getting around Nintendo's filters.

One of the labels is 'Child', which makes a lot of sense. This is a child friendly game (at least, it would be if the filters worked), and there are also categories for Mom, Dad, Grandma, and Grampa. 'Former Child' seems to be a popular label for people. Unfortunately, so is 'Fan of Child', which has iffy enough implications, before you add in the people changing their names to be 'Fan of Child Balls', 'Fan of Child D34TH', or 'Fan of Child A$$'. Even without the titles, ‘Pu$$yeater’, ‘4N4L King’, and ‘Mil Fluver’ have all been spotted online.

While the new look avatars are proving to be very popular, the old, classic Miis are ripe for customisation. I've played against three Peter Griffins already. But, as spotted by Polygon, people are also turning themselves into Michael Jackson for that cherry on top of 'Fan of Child'.

As well as 'Fan of Child', you can also have 'Fan of Mom', which seems very cute and wholesome. However, players have been pairing this with the name 'my Milkers' making for 'Fan of Mom my Milkers'. It's creative, and admittedly a lot funnier than the desperately edgy 'Child D34TH', but
