So only Pokemon has non-white characters? What other Nintendo properties and IPs have non-white characters? (hexbear.net)

The only character with any melanin seems to be Super Mario (get it? because he's Italian? eh, probably not even from Southern Italy).

Having watched the recent Pokemon Presents, it seems that the next Smash Bros. game is just going to be white, white, and more white. But more than that, does Nintendo have any major BIPOC representation aside from Ganondorf? That chap seems to be the only Black and/or Arab guy around. And he's the villain so that's going to irk even more people.

Idk. Quite a pity that at best you're getting Asian representation, not that that isn't important or anything. Only the Pokemon games have any sort-of BIPOC representation.

Pretty fun flight game for N64

Oh, to be fair, I have heard of it, and I can guess that it's a "flight sim" of some sort.

Just never seen footage of it, not that I know of.

But yeah, I hear that it's pretty popular or was back in the day; still sticks in the imagination.

Pilotwings on SNES is fun, even if all I can do is crash. Haven't tried Pilotwings 64, but I do have access to N64 online...

She would be great, but then you finish the game.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I'm bad at finishing games. What happens?
