I think Nintendo was trying to divest themselves of the company. I believe they were already the majority stockholder prior to its sale.

Considering what they did with Crash Bandicoot, you're probably right.

I almost put in a line there about how people were probably racing to show examples of our supposed clickbaiting, but why steal the fun from you guys lol? Ultimately, print/web media’s reliance on clickbait is no mystery (though like I said, it has gotten better). YouTube’s on the other hand, is hardly ever commented…

The most rational shit I’ve seen on the internet today!

What do you consider a god roll? I was lucky enough to finally get one to drop this week, has grenadier and hot swap, with braced frame/rifled barrel. I like it but I'm not over the top

one thing I always tell people is that you have the right to be offended by something but you don’t have the right to not be offended.

I agree strongly with everything you've said here to there point that I felt a star wasnt enough.

Isn’t the whole... “Gamergate” thing in itself named after the Watergate scandal anyway?
Young people... -.- (and I’m only 26!)

Ugh for fucks sake, what a fucking non-controversy.

Five Fun Guys. Five Fungis. They’re mushrooms. It has been a recurring joke for OVER A DECADE in the Mario universe.

That’s a very heteronormative statement you made there, you racist Trump-voting MegaHitler!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nintendo did say they are working on something very different for Mario...

We can blame the guy that killed her. Fuck that guy.

But if it’s rated M then during the reveal trailer the M can turn upside down. You know, for Wario.

You used the word “people” instead of “persons”. This triggers me, I’m offended.

This article just makes me really sad (in an emotional way, not satirical). :’(

I guess I can understand from a business standpoint why they don’t want to, but it would really help their company image. A lot of other companies do this sort of thing, but Nintendo is very adamant against it. She seemed like a wonderful…

I respect Nintendo’s decision. Sometimes it’s hard to stay neutral in a situation like this, especially when it comes to a community for a beloved franchise.

see, that is the sane, rational take on things. nobody is the bad guy, it was a nice gesture but unlikely to go anywhere. but still nice. hopefully everyone can leave it at that.

You had me up until “rated M”. I want child-like whimsy and fantastical adventure, not vulgarity and violence.

I actually had to fast forward the video, the voice acting is that bad. Reminds me of early PS1 RPG’s that had been cheaply re-voiced by American ‘actors’.
