I can see how that would make sense, forget the notion that it might just be random highlights on some letters edges, it must be Nintendo calling us gay.

Never mind our plumber friends homophobic disposition, anyone else think Mario has too many fingers?


less is more, but if less is more how you keeping score?

Lol maybe they diddled the artist. I remember when Boots (A UK chemist) upset their photographer and they produced a free catalogue with a porn Jamie Oliver in it

Yes, and what if you really are gay? What then? Are Nintendo still being offensive?

If by your logic, then Nintendo clearly supports homosexuality and about time too, it's all been Mario and Luigi chasing the princess down, for once it'd be nice to see Mario and the Princess chase Luigi down in support of our homosexual friends.

I thought that day would never arrive.

I wonder...

It could be Canadian or some other butchering of English -

U R MR G, A, Y?

You are Mr G, eh, Why?

So it's an enquiry as to why we're all Ali G and how it doesn't make sense. Perhaps Nintendo are part of a cult whereby they think Ali G is everywhere, even in our souls. The message is cryptic because of how undecipherable our 'text' language is - really a curse we've brought upon ourselves.

You see, that makes more sense, cultists tend to hide hidden messages about their cult - like the old painting thing where people have their finger up in the air.

I'm reading too much into this, aren't I?

I used to respect Nintendo, but some stupid choices they've made recently has caused me to hate almost everything about them (this is not one of the, but it is vaguely funny for a moment).

Okay, Grandma, just for you, I'll uncover this conspiracy theory for you - I've been meaning to make one up for a while now, give me a week and I'll do it, I just need to get these assignments out of the way first.

See, the problem is that you're all reading it WRONG... SPEAOALX is what they were REALLY trying to get across, but the perverted minds of people these days made everyone look at it the wrong way.

I found another message in there too...

Ummm....maybe there ISN'T a message at all, maybe they were going for a different graphic/logo design with a twinkle under every third to fourth letter. It's just whoever started this whole "URMRGAY"
obviously is a complete idiot and hates Nintendo, so therefore he tried to make it sound like Nintendo was trying to offend people.
And yet drugs, violence and other stuff that Sony puts in there games doesn't offend people? Hmm.....I guess people just love to hate Nintendo for actually making games for the right people--CHILDREN!!

Well actually if you look at the fog that comes from mario there is Gay word hidden there too.. You can clearly shape letters G and letter A and Y in 90 degrees.. And its pretty rare thing that the stars at letters are placed like that..

The Fog as G and the yellow thing as A and mario as Y is tho just my imagination

If you backtrack the history of video games you see that they were originally designed for everyone of all ages. G rated. Nothing obscene. No drugs, violence or anything too obscene to mention. No vulgar language, no gore, basically, all games were for all ages.

If you google it, I'm sure you'll see that what started the whole 'gotta put all this in the games!' was Sony back in the early 90's, when Video games were just reaching their SECOND peak of popularity (there first was before 1983 when Atari almost completely destroyed the industry and Nintendo rescued it with Donkey Kong, the first Mario game.).

At this point they realized that the level of detail they could put into it was outstanding, so therefore they put in all kinds of stuff to make them for OLDER ages. Sony figured that Nintendo wasn't going to last because of their main focus on Family friendly games.

Well, Sony was wrong, so when Nintendo released SMG some guy took the box art, scanned it into his computer and said that Nintendo was trying to offend people, probably because he hates Nintendo.
Don't get me wrong, I still like war games such as Star Wars battlefront, but I just don't like the games that have obscene stuff in it, simply because I don't.
