@matrix Nintendo is famously a coward on these issues, like virtually every japanese company is. They wouldn't understand they live high tech middle ages in japan.

@policeinchains I literally have no idea what's wrong with Nintendo saying it isn't canon. Maybe some people inserted a meaning into it that just wasn't there.

@matrix It's not just about this, Nintendo generally avoids controversy harder than they avoid giving discounts to games. They even avoid having crosses in games. They could've given Bowsette a place in Smash. Like that pirated Crash doll thing, it would be cheap and fans would like it.

@policeinchains
Yes you are right in that sense. Nintendo is trying too hard to avoid controversy, but they are getting better and are now less censorius than Sony, however that's not what these posts were about.

@matrix Tho they retconned that pink enemy as a trans woman, birdo! In japan only i think.

@matrix They are asexual. Some are pink with long hair, others are blue. Soooooo
