Is Smash Bros Anti-black?

[Tenchi Ryu]

Very suspect

Gonna be kinda hard to get japanese people go think of black representation in a videogame,it's not important in the grand scheme of things.

It seems like Nintendo is the only Japanese gaming company that doesn't make any attempts to connect with their black cusumer base.

All the other Japanese gaming companies with a global audience seems to understand the importance of diversity even if they dont always get it right.

That was an understandable excuse in the 90s and early 2000s but today they should know better. Reggie was black, they can't act like they have no experience with black people when a black man was the face of the company outside of Japan for years.

Eh I think the picture is a bit of a reach.

BUT

Nintendo historically has done a less than stellar job with diversity and should know better by now.
