Title: Mario: The animal slaughterer!
Post by: DarkTrinity on November 14, 2011, 06:14:18 PM
Just saw this article on msn a lil bit ago. Gave me a good laugh. If PETA could think of one way to lose their credibility, they have just nailed it.

They've lost their credibility long ago.  The media just won't let them die off quietly.

True. Like the whole "Obama swatting at a fly" thing...

Criticizing Nintendo just because Mario can wear a tanooki suit I find to be stupid, though there are other reasons why they would want to criticize Nintendo.

Meh, I don't really care for animals. Nature has never been my thing. I don't have anything against nature lovers, though.

@11clock: They aren't suing anyone.

@ARTgames:  Yeah, saw that a few days ago that they were apparently just 'joking'.  Bullshit.  They're just trying to save face after being retarded.

Oops, used the wrong word. *rewords post* It does seem like their claims that they were joking is just an attempt to cover up their stupidity, I agree with that.

Wait, who was suing who?  Please tell me Nintendo is suing PETA for their rip-off game.  That would be downright hilarious and I can almost think that they would win in court if they did.

I used the word 'sue' in my post when I meant 'criticize,' (I have a rather bad vocabulary bank) so I reworded my post. Would be pretty interesting if PETA was sued, though. :P
