Is Smash Bros Anti-black?

[PS5 Pro]

Sakurai's recent Pic of the Day for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate has anti-Black implications relating to Brimingham Campaign

Here's a pic from one of his previous games...

And I seen a dozen other things he's been involved in and eventually you stop getting the benefit of the doubt.

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.

There are black background characters all over Kamarucho in Yakuza so although I haven’t been to Japan I’m pretty sure they work and interact with more black people than you think.

America is fukked up

Cacs where out there calling the fire department on nikkas.

As much as I love Smash Bros they really pushing it out here


Group of all Black villagers in a spirit battle where the enemy frequently steals from you

Only using the Kong's for black fighter's

Stopped messing with Smash right after that ..

JP devs ain't shyt sometimes.

Caught the boy slacking almost got him slept.

Cross link to reset era.. o no brotha. No.

Yes he's trying to be tongue in cheek slick like accs do when they think you aren't catching the subliminals. Think smash brothers may get broken

outside of Nigerians in Kabukicho I’ve only met one breh over there, who lived in Osaka and had a legit job.

African Americans are still rare over there.

No excuse with the globalization caused by the internet. These same people talk in American Ebonics and swagger jack all types of shyt from us. You ever watch Terrace House and hear the way they talk and the shyt they listen to?

They know enough. America isn’t some little peculiar country

So you run around dressed like BTS or talk like Gordon Ramsay? It’s an isolated state, and they don’t know shyt other than what white media exports.

Have you been there?

No, but i know if a bunch of white dudes can make something like Ghost of Tsushima they can do enough research to stop making us caricatures from the 70’s in their games

The Arcadium is so fukkin trash it literally is Black ResetEra. Y’all will suck off any portrayal Yasuke but then go to bytch about a random image to know about civil rights.

Banderias
Nico
Raven
Adam Hunter
Sheeva Alomar
Zasalamel

Deathloop just made two black characters the stars of their game without being filled with negative and cringe worthy stereotypes. Not japanese but when I think of representation thats what I’m looking for.

And I agree with most of those. Too bad RE will never bring back sheeva as much as they bring back everyone else though. Literally the only playable protagonist to never appear in another resident evil game

 

[Westbama Heartthrob]

Lets not forget the time capcom literally had a character in blackface

 

[ElMorenoFeo809]

Ya forgot about mr.game and watch

 

[Mʀ2ᴋDᴇᴇᴢ]

Smash, brehs

That almost don't read right
