Dude why even give them attention by making a thread about it? It just encourages them. Plus the irony is when you give them attention it just means (or makes it sound like anyways) that you are offended by them being offended. It is better to just laugh at something like this, shake your head and forget it ever happened.

It's a good point, maybe the best respons eis to start treating the professionally outraged as if they were trolls.  Just ignore them, and any acknowledgement of their existence simply feeds them.


The only reason these people exist is because the Internet. A) there have always been easily offended whiny bitches, but it used to be they had to be angry enough to sit down and write a letter that would probably never even be read half the time so only the most offended people would even bother to finish writing it but now the internet gives these people almost instant access and they can easily get attention.

And B) clickbait. Being offended on the internet sells, and by sells I mean gets clicks. People are basically pulling a type of fox news type move where they just have stir shit up and they get what they want: clicks. Because people love to fight over stupid shit.

I'll not play this game. But if I were to play it, the hand would stay the color it is by default. Things like these are now just being said and done just because...



PC GAMING: BEST GAMES. WORST CONTROLS

A mouse & keyboard are made for sending email and typing internet badassery. Not for playing video games!!!

I'll just leave this over here.

This is really offensive towards Mussolini since he gave fascism its name, yet you depict Hitler as the symbol of it.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Maybe we should make the hand quarter 10 year old, quarter black, quarter asian and quarter white.

Why not use a white glove resembling Mario?

Why does it have to be white?

Try buying gloves from the non-racist factory next time.

I'm in the "I'd rather there not be a hand on the screen at all" camp. I think it makes the game worse to have it there.

Catering exclusively to amputees and invisible gendered people isn't the right way to go either.

Once again, people are too dang sensitive. They need to put their big girl panties on.



"Given the mainstream appeal of the mustachioed hero and his ongoing battle against Bowser, you'd think Nintendo – a company that's repeatedly shown willingness to be inclusive – would have thought of this.

And it apparently did: A Nintendo of America representative tells Business Insider, "We are able to confirm there are more options, including various skin tones."


There you have it folks. Business Insider saved the day and made Nintendo include more options in skin tones.

Make article bitching about something trivial

Complain about white hand when it is Asian hand

Take credit for making a company make a change (even though they already had different color options available)

my first thought is i'm surprised that hand is actually in the game. i thought when i've seen it it was just marketing material.

my second thought is why do a real hand if your going to do a hand. make it mario's hand or bowsers hand or peaches hand ect. would make a more athetically pleasing art direction to me.

lastly, people are dumb.
