It's worth noting that Mario's skin here is coloured darker than the rest of his sprites

I miss the days of rare Marios and celebratory hangings in my baby games.

It's a shame we never got a true sequel.

Reminds me of those spear guys from Yoshi's Island. I think they're subtle enough to not get censored though.

A game like Butt Slam!!! wouldn't fly these days. It's way too subtle.

In Famicom Detective Club 2 there's an incredibly insensitive "joke" they thankfully removed in the Switch remake.
When investigating at the school there's a student who gives you some information on the murder. They're always standing far away but they have a pony tail and feminine way of talking so it appears (to the player) that it's a girl.
Then at one point the protagonist finally says something like "by the way, why do you talk that way and look like that even though you're a boy?" And suddenly he comes close to you for the first time and it's a really ugly face and he says "what's it to you, excuse me for being an okama!"

Why is Fred running away if he's a flaming faggot?
>all the faggots were afraid of greg because they were afraid that he would ram that big piece of man meat (or should we say fag meat?) up their ass and right their asshole right open
That's like the #1 faggot fantasy tho.

Team Sega Newsletter telling kids not to say the n-word would be seen as "too political".

Not retro, but River City Girls also has a few characters like that and no one gives a shit.

No, we wouldn't. She has blond hair, she would just be seen as an obnoxious white fake-tan valley girl.

These games feature racist characters who are not depicted as being bad people just because they are racist

If the goal of this game is what I think it is and the devs had to write unfunny punchlines on purpose then that is unironically comedic genius.

The FF7 remake proved you absolutely cannot make a game like the original where the protagonists are unrepentant terrorists. Kira from DS9 couldn't be done on a current day show for similar reasons.

Kek, you would have to be extremely sheltered to think this is offensive or anyone would be offended by this. It's a reference to Zulu and Swazi natives, nothing racist about it at all.
