The depiction of these characters in the original game is neither offensive nor racist.

Being Australian I don’t know how how offensive this is to the Native American people, if it is then it’s just a minor aesthetically change that hurts nobody and appeases some so no harm. Though with my limited knowledge and thus ignorance of the situation I find it no more offensive than a cave man with a club, an old English knight in a suit of armour, Samaria attire, togas, kilts or boomerangs. It’s just cultural history, right? If he turned red in the animation I could understand and would openly push for removing it. Anyways, it doesn’t change the game and if it was removed prior to footage being shown then it wouldn’t matter. Again, Australian and could be missing a sensitive issue here so feel free to correct me :)

LMAO did I call it or did I call it?? Smh, society is so predictable. Man, I can't wait for this ultra puritanical PC fad to die, just like it did after the early 90s..

Honestly,why wouldn't Nintendo cave?  It's a huge entertainment corporation with nothing to gain by taking a tough stance on a tiny animation. There is no reason for a mega entertainment company like Nintendo to take a strong political stance, the vast majority of Smash players will never know it happened and do not want politics in their games anyway. 

What I find hilarious is the source that I will not name is after Smash, when something like Street Fighter is entirely built on racial stereotypes.

I see. I didn't know that. I thought this thing had been dropped.

Muh 2 frames.

SJW, what a joke.

While this is a video game character, I hardly care.

BUT, this is just a slippery slope it seems. I mean we are tearing down statues, renaming buildings, ect. While I'm no confederate fan, I'm worried that our social justice is just another way of us rewriting history to show that we never did anything bad.

You know how the winner writes history how they want it. That is what I'm afraid of. Our children will never know that there is such a thing as the holocaust or the civil war or racism, because in order to protect on anothers feelings we hide it from them or erase it from history.

What you posted here makes no sense. None at all. But then again, I expect nothing less from people that try to tell other people what is and is not acceptable to be offended by. You see, where you have it wrong is right there. I have the right to be offended by anything I feel offended by (genuinely). For example, I was offended by Trump's, "grab em by the pussy" line. However, you may not have been. Some women were offended by that. Others were not. Those that are offended should be allowed to express their feelings just the same as those who are not offended. I can be offended and subsequently you have the right to not be offended by it just the same. Ultimately, I am allowed to speak my mind and you are as well. It is up to the powers that be to make a decision to change things or not and it is up to you and I to decide how we will progress based on those decisions. But telling someone they cannot be offended or that they should not express their opinion is as ludicrous to me as your view of those that voice their opinion are to you. And that is what your initial post attempted to do by asking that question. It was a, "if you are not offended by this, you cannot be offended by that (anything)" type of question. Which is silly. The world is bigger than just one man's opinion.

You ultimately are pushing for people to not express themselves and use their freedom of speech which is totally incorrect. I have no idea who is really upset over it. I would think, just like with any large group, there will be some people that are and other people that are not offended by it. But I am not going to ignore those that are offended because some people are not offended. That is cherrypicking. I believe ultimately, everyone should be allowed to voice how they feel and then leave the decision to the company or powers that be. Being told not to speak how you feel is oppression and I am adamantly against that no matter which group of people are upset (Native Americans, sjw's, adversaries to each of those groups, or otherwise).

Do you ever get tired of making such laboured leaps of logic?
