  Shame about Nintendo becoming such a shitty company though...

    Couldn’t agree more

    Good thing we have 40 years of history to play through instead of giving them new money 😁

      Given their lawsuits, emulation is 100% the right way to piss them off. Lol

      Nintendo’s always been litigious and controlling of their brand. What they haven’t been (until recently) is price-gouging peddlers of derivative schlock resting on their laurels. They used to be afraid of low-quality games and rehashes diluting their brand (they witnessed the carnage of 1983). Now they just don’t care.

      I’m sure when they were a hanafuda maker they were a little less litigious…

  Are they just talking about Super Mario Bros.? Because Mario is like 44 now.

  • TachyonTele@piefed.social ⁨5⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Yes. Super Mario Bros (pictured) came out in 1985.

    That was 40 years ago.

      Right, but it says “Mario”, and that was not the first game that featured the character.

  Nintendo makes great games but they are becoming very greedy

  • TachyonTele@piefed.social ⁨3⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    When the OGs are retiring and dying off, the next generation is always greedy for their money.

  Happy 40th Mario! Birthday Bros. Entertainment!

  Someone definitely got a stroke making this.

  I still have the Mario35 game. Though it's not playable. But i do have the 3D All-stars game, and it works great. So stupid of them to sell that as fomo. They could've been taking in money for years on that.

    Low key kinda glad they made it a FOMO game cause the game fucking sucks, so when I sell it for hundreds of dollars in a couple of years I won’t feel bad about it at all.

      How did it suck? It's three critically acclaimed games for the price of one.

    You want a ripoff?! The 25th Wii game! It was straight up a SNES rom of All-Stars (and not even the revision that included Mario World) 😅

    It’s just a picture? Or is there more to the post?

    What in the world could you nitpick about this picture?
