Seems to be overly protective politically correct activists putting matters into their own hands and failling yet again.

Seems that an unjustified outlash with Mario wearing a sombrero has made the Hispanic community to stand up and say they actually love Mario wearing a sombrero.

SJW needs to stop trying to police everything stfu and keep their nose out of everyone's ass.

I don't know if the 2 people who complained about the sombrero on Twitter had anything to do with this.

How in the world does removal of a sombrero "ruin gaming?"

Oh, that's right. It doesn't.

You're being just as ridiculously oversensitive as the people who removed the hat in the first place.

What a bunch of dumb fucks. They need to wear their pussy hats somewhere else.
Actually, the new boxart looks better, and shows a greater variety of stages... so, this is a change for the better.

I don't think "box art is changed before release" is such a rare or unusual event that you really need to blame someone for it.

we even have parades of Mexico, brazil, Cubans, and all latin America here in Japan and guess who are the ones parading? sons and daughters of immigrants as well as Japanese native and no one bats an eye, also most of the mixed races here just look like a native because our genes are strong and come out on top. what the hell Americans?

Isn't it possible that the Sombrero Mario was just a placeholder image, and that they had planned all along to replace it when a better, more colorful and dynamic image was available? The old Sombrero Mario image just features Mario standing near some stairs, while the new Swimmer Mario features him swimming, with an enemy on his tail.

Until Nintendo themselves reveals the reason of the change, however, this is all supposition.

Also... is it necessary to bring the "SJW boogeymen ruin everything" into this board? There's enough of that in the PS4 Board already, this last weekend there was a crazy influx of "Aloy is ugly", "Feminism is bad", "SJWs Blah Blah Blah" topics over there, and mods started to erase topics that devolved into nothing but insults. One guy even had his account suspended, it says he's currenty in purgatory. Probaby because he lied about a supposed interview with Horizon Zero Dawn's director...

Yes, the regressive left is real... but they don't have as much power in gaming as some think. Otherwise, plenty of games, which feature sexualized characters, such as Tales of Berseria, Nier Automata, ARMS, Shantae, League of Legends, Senran Kagura and others, would have been heavily censored, or their producers would have decided to not export them to the west in the case of the Japanese games.

i will let you know when our version comes out here in Japan.
also, all of you guys, just buy the original Japanese game, theres no need to read on a platformer Mario game, and then NoA will know that theres no need to be afraid of some fat ladies behind a computer pushing her bias and agenda on america only, their cries dont reach over here.
Others have pointed it out: Sombrero Mario is still in the actual game. It was likely for more visual diversity. I'd SJWs were really a problem to Nintendo, Sombrero Mario would have simply been removed from the game, not just the box art.

^ Thanks.

Take a look at this, from the website that TC posted (Post #251):

The sombrero part of the picture was probably just a placeholder. On the original box it's clearly a hasty screen from the game while the others are much more posed and action-packed in comparison. 

Nintendo change boxarts to reveal they were hiding unrevealed elements all the time. Cranky Kong on Tropical Freeze's box, anyone?


It sounds plausible. Also, the ones who complained were some random people on the Internet. I didn't hear of anyone making protests outside Nintendo of America's offices, or of influential news networks denouncing it.

Check Post #264 in the NeoGAF thread. The poster does raise some valid points regarding dynamic images. Mario standing in a desert with stairs behind him is not as colorful appealing and marketable as Mario swimming, with an enemy behind him.

Take a look at the two posts I mentioned:

only reason a government does that is because the people leave them, no government can support itself without its citizens, if the population speaks, the government has to listen and do what the votes dictate, unless you live under a dictatorship like USA and Russia, Korea, major part of china, etc.

Anti SJWs often lie and exaggerate, they know that other Anti SJWs rarely check any sources and will believe anything immediately if it helps them justify their scorn against the SJW boogeymen. Here, I'll show you:

The creator of this thread (One of the "Aloy is ugly" topics I mentioned in an earlier post) NEVER links to the interview he claims he read. He spends most of his topic insulting anyone who disagrees with him... and he was eventually suspended.

The US and South Korea are dictatorships... 

I don't think you know anything about those countries or don't know what a dictatorship is.
who said it was SJWs? that picture looked kinda blurry so they replaced it. I think you're reading too much into it.

That is true.

Maybe I see it this way cause most people I hang out with see the same thing? I kind of envy you, over there in Japan. You don't have to deal with the BS that suffocates us here in the west.

Even my country, although it is worse in the US and French and Germany, sadly. UK is probably worse too.

But Sweden will be just like that soon, with the agenda that they drive here. 

I just want to build a bright future for me, my family and my children. That cannot be done in Sweden currently. Changes have to be made.

The funny thing is agree with you 100%
Blizzard did the same thing with Tracer before launch. We've reached a point where 1 person bitching can get a game changed. These companies would rather deal with the "backlash" of censorship than leaving things as they are and seem as insensitive they know that at least with fake censorship for the sake of censorship they have enough dolts out there defending them for "doing the right thing".

Oh sure, there are plenty of people that qualify as "SJWs", but a game containing aspects that relate to things "SJWs" talk about in no way indicates that there was an influence, and most especially, not that they are "ruining gaming".

It's like saying that if a game features a black character, it was automatically influenced by Black Lives Matter. Obviously, that is not true at all, as black characters have existed in games long before such a movement, yet people could claim such a thing because, hey, it has some vague relation to a modern movement, so clearly it must be responsible for it, right?

There's some irony to the fact that if anything, developers would almost feel inclined NOT to include elements in a game because people like the topic creator would take them as being influenced from some unrelated "movement" IRL, so you could very well claim that it's the people that state idiotic things like "SJW is ruining gaming" is what's REALLY having an influence. I mean hell, Bioware released Jade Empire in 2005, and it featured the option for a homosexual relationship. Now they do the same, and somehow it was ruined because of the "SJWs"?

    SJW's don't exist. Just another overused buzzword.

    SJWs DO exist, in the sense that there are legitimately Social Justice advocates that are extremely ridiculous and take offense to nearly everything because it's "racist," (even if it's not racist) which is what the term pretty much means in the context of the people that term is supposed to represent. They might be .001% of the population, it might differ from that, but they DO exist, in some sort of capacity.

    It was probably to coincide with the water world "reveal." Either way, this reminds me of that Mario Party 9 box art that forgot Luigi, some fans reacted, and Nintendo put a tiny render of Luigi on top of the castle in the background. That was funny.

    Mario is still going to be sporting a sombrero ingame. So this doesn't change anything. 

    The funny thing is agree with you 100%
    Blizzard did the same thing with Tracer before launch. We've reached a point where 1 person bitching can get a game changed.

    Blizzard said they agreed it didn't fit Tracer's personality and gave her a different sexualized pose.

    So no, the imaginary SJW menace did not win that battle.

    Correct. The only boogeyman of the right that actually exists is George Soros. And..... he's just the same thing as the Koch Brothers but funding liberal causes. They're just mad he's not on THEIR side so they make up a bunch of bullshit to make him more sinister than he really is. (Or address the real problem that is money in politics.)

    No it is mostly a buzz word, the "censorship" found in video games can be attributed to several groups from the so called SJW's(far left) to social conservatives... 


    People seem to be missing the part where companies try to avoid stepping on anyone when it comes to anything that could spark a shit storm(references to religion, and all the 'ism'). Their goal is to sale products, and you don't do that by pissing off a chunk of potential customers.

    No idea what you're talking about.
    I'm probably a little late here, but this is from the thread TC linked to: 

    The water world was only officially revealed yesterday. A reveal which was followed almost immediately by the box art change.

    It's 99% likely that this change had nothing, or at least very little, to do with people being offended.

    Are you sure it was the left that cause the box art to change? Nintendo might have looked at the current US president here and decided it might be offensive the current people in charge. Don't forget that the President is also an SJW, his version just happens to be going the other way.

      If you are seriously claiming that SJWs did this, you're no better than them.

      This could've simply been a design choice. Note how the blue of the water complements the sky in the middle of the box much better than the picture of Mario with the sombrero.

      In all honesty, I think it's just a design choice. This is like the 5th topic I've seen on this exact same topic, and this is a waaay bigger deal than it should've been. I'm saying this as a Mexican who lived most of my childhood there, in Mexico City.

      At the end of the day, the actual sand kingdom and sombrero costume are still in the game, and as long as I can still dress Mario as a mariachi, I'll be happy.
