Harlow Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Dunno the US/EU heard, but the news has spread like Meteo's asteroids. In a really insane feat, Shigeru Miyamoto revealed that Mario and Luigi aren't brothers, but rather lovers! He's quoted as saying: "That was the original intent of the game - Miyamoto said - was a game full of signs of gay culture, Luigi and Mario are a gay couple trying to meet the challenges of a society that rejects them. To enter the international market were adapted some contents and intentions to reach a Western audience, but if you look carefully, many of the original concepts are present" Eg. "The phallic-looking Goombas" and "The pole mario has to slide down at the end of each level" About other characters, he said: "Peach isn't real; she's an alegory of traditional feminity, a simile of homosexuality, while Bowser is a version of exaggerated masculinity, represented as a monster of sexism" The outrage is colossal. Satoru Iwata is expected to declare about the "Mario Love." and other Nintendo characters, like Link, Sonic and Samus It was all published first... by an Onion type site. Hispanic Digital media believed it like crazy and it's spreading like fire. It was revealed as fake as soon as it got out as real.

Drasiana Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I thought I read this parody article ages ago. That's pretty lol that people fell for the article with how clearly goofy it is. I wish we had more games with lgbt protagonists though.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish we had more games with lgbt protagonists though.... GOD DUN APPROVE OF BROS :V My 7-year old self's head would explode at the fact Birdo was meant to be a guy. But I would've ignored questionable clothing. There are a lot of legit news sites (some generic, some game based) that already reported it. I knew I had a dejá-vú when I heard someone believed something from parody site, but this Mario thing is on a bigger scale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Orange Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 My sides... all over the table... they're everywhere. I mean they show the love through out their games as well as the Game Theory idea about Mario being Communist. Gay and a Commie, I feel like I should be more surprised.
