Yeah I don't see much issue with Humba. Hell, her Nuts & Bolts design is much more suggestive but I don't remember anyone complaining on that either.

Let me guess, you're one of the ignorant people thst cried out "censorship!!1" and "damn sjws" when they patched out Game and Watch's offensive native american depiction?I'm fine with humba & see no real reason to changer her in a remake, she is what she is otherwise you end up with SJW snowflakes trying to change everthing about the remakes B/C rares crude humor isn't PC for nowadays & we will end up with another simpsons apu situation
Funny thing is that even we mexicans didn't get mad, we thought it was pretty cool and we know they were trying to depict the colors and joy of our culture. I mean they could've portrayed drug dealers/narcos if they wanted to be offensive.There is nothing racist nor sterotypical about her design. Native americans wore garb that like, I remember people getting angry about Super Mario odyssey's Mexican town, yet it didn't change.
People need to understand that there is a difference between sterootypical(every asian is good at math) and homaging design of ancient culture. By your logic every asain character that wears a rice hat is racist and stereotyping.
Banjo Kazooie would be in between Wolf and Sheik for allstar mode.Nintendo @ E3 is 7 days and only 2 hours away! Makes me excited. Hopefully, in something more than 7 days, we know Banjo is joining the series we all love, and will love. Forever.
Yep! That'd be so cool to see them in All-Star Mode in the middle of Nintendo's history representing the N64 era ^^Banjo Kazooie would be in between Wolf and Sheik for allstar mode.
Was about to say lol.This is getting too political. Let’s drop it, please.
My reaction:Though I don't see it getting announced ,But what would everyone's reaction be if Banjo-Threeie gets announced at E3, But they still managed to say it's "Xbox Exclusive"?
I know Microsoft isn't as hesistant as they used to be with exclusive IP's seeing how Halo and Xbox Game Pass is coming to PC, Then again Microsoft has Windows on there and aren't strangers to PC's, But bringing major exclusives to another console will definitely turn heads.
It's a new Banjo game. No way it isn't hype.Though I don't see it getting announced ,But what would everyone's reaction be if Banjo-Threeie gets announced at E3, But they still managed to say it's "Xbox Exclusive"?

Completely UnrelatedWhere’s Minecraft?
The only thing that I fear about Banjo Kazooie's chances is Nintendo themselves. I really hope Nintendo made them the next frontrunners behind Joker.Uh guys?

Honestly that change was really dumb, the animation now looks horribleLet me guess, you're one of the ignorant people thst cried out "censorship!!1" and "damn sjws" when they patched out Game and Watch's offensive native american depiction?
Humba is stereotypical, but its not the offensive kind of way imo. They never really played off her being native for a joke if i remember right, she just was who she was. Just kind of showed that even in the banjo world there were plenty of people with different cultures. Im not pulling out the pitchfork and torch if they change her, but it seems like such a non issue to go out of their way to change it. We never censored Liu Kang for being a stereotypical asian martial arts man, we dont really need to change this either.
Substitute that was also a non issue like 4 wineing SJWs on twitter cryed about it & they changed it despite more native americans comming out saying it was fine, now MG&W looks like its just his dingaling is hanging out without the feather witch is worse looking IMO
There's quite a lot of stereotypes and offensive humour in the Banjo games in fairness. I really don't want to see a bastardised remake. If you're remaking the games, they have to be authentic to the originals.

There's a difference between the examples you all used and Indigenous Peoples of the Americas. Many of us continue to be genocided. Even in 2017 there were Indigenous women in Canada who were sterilized without their consent. Mexicans aren't being genocided. They didn't have their culture outlawed. And a lot of people who say they're Native aren't actually Native so the whold G&W feather thing isn't really a good example either.Maybe I'm just oblivious (which could very well be true) , but why was Humba offensive? Her design is probably generic but is she really giving off negative vibes? What makes her different from Pocahontas?
This sounds like a speedy Gonzales situation to me where people just assume the character is offensive but really the people love them (although obviously Humba isn't that notable to really care as much Speedy)
I know you said to drop it but I had to say something. A lot of people don't really seem to understand the situation and how it's different.This is getting too political. Let’s drop it, please.

Sorry. Still new. Thanks for the advice.You should avoid double posting since it is against the rules. Just wanted to give you a heads up on that.
Tinderbox apparently believes it's not considered a world class franchise, unlike Banjo-Kazooie.Where’s Minecraft?
Who are these guys?Uh guys?

Or more likely they only have a contract with Microsoft and Rare not Mojang.Based on Tinderbox apparently it's not considered a world class franchise unlike Banjo-Kazooie.
Yet another company that's marketing Banjo-Kazooie at E3. This can't be a coincidence.Uh guys?

Perhaps another merchindizing company. Maybe this one makes shirts! I would love a Banjo-Kazooie shirt.Who are these guys?
Well, to be fair, they called State of Decay and Crackdown world class franchises... so yeah... They're reaching a little for advertisement lol.Mmmmmmmmm....Look at that...."World-class gaming franchises" lemme just:

Looks like even Microsoft knows Minecraft might not be good for Smash!Or more likely they only have a contract with Microsoft and Rare not Mojang.
This has nothing to do with that. Beanstalk is an agency that helps build brand recognition. Think like a really intense ad agency. Mojang most likely has a different company doing that for them.Looks like even Microsoft knows Minecraft might not be good for Smash!
