Nintendo reveals that the new Mario game will have a trans character

For those who didn't read the article, the game is already released, it's the Paper Mario Thousand Year Door remake. In the Japanese text of the original gamecube release, Vivian was a trans character. The English localisation of the Gamecube release cut out all references to her being trans.

The article is saying the Switch remake's English translation now contains the cut dialogue that fleshes out Vivians backstory.

Birdo?

Will they have a character that goes to jail because he wanted to play old video games?

It always had a trans character; they're just going to stop pretending that they're not.

I'm sure gAmErS will have a totally reasonable and normal reaction to this.

It's Zelda. They're putting an end to the age-old mixup once and for all!

They already have Birdo in the games tho, maybe it's a new character 🤔

Toad, birdo, the shy guys can't all be guys, they must have a hundred trans characters at this point, right?

That's great, but, I mean, it's Mario. How are we supposed to know?

I haven't played Mario in a while. It seems like, given the general art style, in order to make it obvious enough to notice, they'd have to flirt with stereotyping.

I don't know. Maybe I'm overthinking it.

Bowsette confirmed!

This is how Nintendo will get banned in Florida. I hope DeSantis and Ninento sue each other and blow through tons of money on legal fees.

Okay - can we localize mother 3 now then?

This will be the second LGBTQ character Nintendo has had in their games since Gay Bowser in Super Mario Galaxy.

Isn't Vivian trans?
