"Here at at Nintendo, we treat all our customers equally.
Like absolute shit."
Hey at least they dont discriminate /s
They hate, not discriminate
“Do you have money?”
“Yeah.”
“Right this way, you exploitable rube!”
Hello, gay Bowser
It’s, “So long, gay Bowser!”
Thats the joke
I thought they were trying to be welcoming to the gays
They are, it was an exclamation of surprise at Bowser’s … dimensions
They’re not really enemies. It would be unprofitable for both if one destroyed the other for good.
At this point, Nintendo should be aware of all the rabid gays that would die for Bowser (me included)
We are all Mr Gay!
I am ALL gay on this blessed day :-)
Wait you skipped a step
Speak for yourself!
Wife makes gay with a rolling pin for extra flavor.
Duddits!
The comment we needed
Hey nintendo, your rainbow capitalism does not excuse your anti consumer behavior and general shittiness towards your biggest fans.
i could almost forgive them if they fully animated mario with the suit declaring he accepts gays and voiced by charles martinet with a speech of around an hour long
I’ll forgive them if they rescind all cease and desist orders sent to fan games/animations/comics/etc.
voiced by charles martinet
unfortunately, he’s retired from the role
Surely the deeply religious Chris Pratt doesn’t have any problematic views on gay people. The same Chris Pratt who has worn a Three Percenter hat, a known white supremacist org that his brother is a part of.
of course nintendo would support the gays, gay luigi has been an open secret for years
How nice of the princess
Dear pesky okamas,
The Liberal Democrats and I have taken over the National Diet. Same-sex marriage legislation is now a permanent guest on one of my seven Lib Dem tables. I dare ya ta sign it if ya can.
Nintendo can fuck off with this ploy. They’ve sued the living shit out of anyone and everyone, including people just opshop selling retro Nintendo games and consoles; leading to hatred and disgust by, once avid, Nintendo gamers and fans; and now, suddenly, they love the gays? Fuck that lie up their money shitting shitter hole!
I get it, I also agree Nintendo is an awful, greedy corporation that happens to make fun games from time to time. However, this is a pretty big deal in Japan. For a company to openly support a still quite socially, culturally taboo topic there, is pretty crazy to see.
Anyway, I guess my point is, if they’re condoning and supporting the advancement of civil rights for a stigmatized demographic, I think that’s important, even if the company is still a shitty, greedy husk.
They’re only doing this because public opinion has already shifted towards acceptance of LGBT people.
True. Rainbow capitalism is still capitalism and only done to get more money, BUT look at the US right now and how much it sucks for the LGBTQI+ community. If the decision is between rainbow capitalism and capitalism that dosn’t even pretend to care, rainbow capitalism is the better choice.
Virtue signalling is still better than doing nothing.
pirating nintendo games somehow feels extra good now
be gay do crime etc etc
Bilking customers to make money line go up = hating gays?
You are assuming they said Nintendo hated gays before, they are saying that Nintendo treats people like shit and now they preach gay love (call it pinkwashing or whatever)
Look at the roster of F-ZERO GX and tell me there aren’t at least half a dozen LGBTQ reps among them
well, it’s called F-ZERO G(ay)X
and don’t forget the arcade F-ZERO A(roace)X
Mr. Gay Men Watch
So long gay Bowser
Have fun at your gay wedding
It’s nice to see a household-name company standing up to a stupid conservative stance taken by their government, especially as a USian who was a nintendo kid.
It doesn’t make the soulless corporation GOOD (and I see they are getting the hate they’re due) but it’s still nice to see.
Kinda like when Chick-fil-A corporate stood behind the Utah location that had pride flags.
It doesn’t absolve them, but it’s a good step forward.
Just go FUCK YOURSELF, Nintendo
probably the gayest thing you’re capable of
rare nintendo w
I just realised Mario’s moustache goes far beyond his mouth.
It’s a classic cartoonish exaggeration. Nobody has that nose shape either.
Or that shape dick.
What?
Speak for yourself
There are definitely people who could grow facial hair like that, though.
It’s only attached to his face above his lip. The rest a kind of handlebar moustache.
I lean over to loudly whisper at a bunch of shitty conservative businessmen in expensive suits - I heard it was gay to wear a business suit.
Well of course, he wants to leave a good impression for all those gay men
