Promoting companies that hire literal death squads. Awesome.

Promoting a company that lead the overthrow of the Hawaiian Monarchy and thus partial destruction of their culture and way of life

Wait until you find out that the list of people and groups that have NOT done terrible things to other people is so small that there might be only one group or person on it, if at all.

I’m confused, why is turning bananas into ads exciting? I don’t get the value added for anyone other than Dole?

I'm guessing it's nostalgia. The bananas in the original game had stickers on them, but the newer games didn't. There are a lot of people who love the old SMB games and are happy when anything is done to make the new ones like the old ones.

I don't get being so excited about it, but these games weren't a core part of my childhood. I played the party games in SMB 1 once and those were fun, but I don't think I ever actually played the main game.

Ah, makes sense, thanks for the context

The same reason I hope CalorieMate stays in MGS 3 Delta, it was in the original and became a part of the identity of the game. Not having it would feel weird.

Kinda like when something gets remade and is nearly completely different from the original. All the right names and pieces are there, but its off and doesn’t feel right. 2010 Nightmare on Elm Street stuff.
