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.

I would definitely pull the lever, it looks like AI designed the track to crash into itself. Is this how AI will save the world, through it's own incompetence? 😝

I'm also an aussie and never seen the show, but I'm assuming the show is/was a reality TV show so they came on during the 90's and the couple gave their backstory as just business partners.

Someone recently watched re-runs and made a post commenting that they're clearly were actually a couple, That post went "viral" the couple saw it and commented with proof that yeah they were gay all along.

Is this plan of mine stupid/bothersome?

I tried making more small talk with strangers, almost all of the time the other person was receptive and it was lovely.

Every now and then, and this is maybe like 1 in 20, the other person didn't seem happy about it. That didn't inspire confidence, but I have kept going. Causing someone to have a slightly awkward experience is nothing to lose sleep over, it's just a part of life. Do it

Only 90s kids will understand

I was born 95, but I was the youngest kid. I was exposed to a lot of 90's stuff that I probably wouldn't have been if not for that, like the snes felt really crusty and old by the time I would have been old enough to get my own console, but I grew up mirroring the excitement of my older peers for stuff like SMW and Plok. I miss a lot of stuff from the 90's and I was only ever 4 or younger in it hahahaha
