Yesterday at 10:27 AM # 72 Min Min revealed as ARMS rep in Smash Ultimate 2 Mariolee · O Yesterday at 10:17 AM Eh, better than getting one of the guys. I'll take a silver medal. Yesterday at 10:18 AM < #2 Neoxon Community Resettler Trash, Twintelle is the only character from this IP worth a damn.

Another L for black representation in Smash. Pretty disappointed by this when they had an extremely popular character they could've gone with.

A real opportunity for diversification -- one of the only opportunities among Nintendo's brands for a black woman specifically -- totally squandered. Wow, there are some ridiculously bad takes in this thread. Disclaimer Member I'm a fan of both characters and am glad that a female POC has entered the game. Disclaimer Shame on some of you. Member Shame on some people for being upset that the only real option from among Nintendo's IPs to have a black woman representing wasn't taken? Right now? Are you for real? Yesterday at 10:20 AM #15 she's the best design but twintelle would've been nice for representation. Yes, Smash desperately needs more female character mains, and so Min Min is far from nothing (it could have been another white dude), but it's an inarguable loss of opportunity. Dachhase Yesterday at 10:32 AM #113 Coward I knew she would win because it's the producers fav character ever since it's announcement of the game. Also ppl when most ppl say minority representation they mean a POC the average person would think she is a whit blond girl, you can say cloud is Asian but when u look at the board they Yesterday at 10:21 AM #16 all have white skin, having a black person or more POC shows a lot of representation to the eyes of many, so maybe ppl should have said more black Stopped watching once it was revealed to be Min Min. Not happy at all. Hoping to see the next character soon but for now l'll hold off on purchasing Fighter's Pass 2 since so far representation а pass.

Obviously Nintendo once again decides against the represantation of a black character ArchedThunder Uncle Beerus Yesterday at 10:42 AM # 219 Once again they refuse to put POC representation. Twintelle was an awesome popular character as well and yet they didn't add her... Imagine making a fighting game with 80+ characters and the only playable Black people are alternate costumes. It's ridiculous and it's pretty clear at this point that they see zero issue with it. Member I wonder why Twintelle struggles in Japan.jeeze.

I know what you are saying but I wouldn't call it an L for representation. Nimby PLANNER Member Yesterday at 10:23 AM # 43 This is the most disappointing reveal ever for me.

Poodlestrike NSESN rAndom said: O No Justice, No Peace Banned There are some thorny intersectional issues at play in this thread that we need to cover before reopening. Many posters are disappointed about the ARMS rep not being Twintelle, as the game doesn't have much in the way of black or brown representation, and at this point that lack is fairly egregious. We banned a number of posts dismissing the idea that black representation in a game like this is a reasonable thing to expect and we Yesterday at 10:39 AM # 172 Administrator Minority = Asian Extremely popular = Min Min tops popularity polls Disclaimer said: O would like to make it clear: It is. Sorry but everything checks out in your criteria. The second issue is Min Min, a character with a Chinese name who speaks her lines in Chinese, and who is clearly Chinese-themed in a way that other Asian Smash characters are not. There are gamers who identify with Min Min and feel represented by her, especially at this time of increasing xenophobia and tensions towards China. This representation has value too, and dismissing that is also not okay. Shame on some people for being upset that the only real option from among Nintendo's IPs to have a black woman representing wasn't taken? Right now?

I will apologize. Of course it would have been the perfect opportunity for Nintendo to include its first Black woman character in Smash and this is a a sorely missed opportunity. SalvaPot said: O Minmin is not a minority? AuthenticM I just meant to say that I was upset that some at the start of this thread were neglecting and overlooking that Min Min herself is a POC. The Fallen I am sorry for what I said and how I said it Ryuelli said: © Isn't Min Min the first Chinese character in Smash? Yesterday at 10:40 AM #179 If you're going to deviate from putting the main / most prominent character from a series into Smash I would think it would be to take one of the few opportunities to add diversity in an area where it's entirely missing. chusetto said: O She's Chinese (or from the Arms Universe China) I view Smash Bros. as having a passive lack of diversity given the rules of inclusion, but with this it's a choice.

Sorry but everything checks out in your criteria. Blunoise Member She has all the characteristics of white beauty standards: light-toned skin, green eyes and blond hair. It doesn't matter much that she's canonically chinese in the context of demanding diverse-looking characters, especially dark-skinned ones. Honest question if you ask any normal person you think they gonna think she is Asian?? The issue is that everyone in the game looks white doesn't matter if use gamers know there lore it's the fact that when u look on the board they all look white SHAN

Reminder that these are the same mongoloids that have been bitching for months about "no female DLC character." They finally get exactly what they wanted (where it isn't an alt or, bird, and is a standalone, solo female fighter) and surprise surprise they immediately move the goalposts again to bitch some more.

This is why you never give in to the demands of such lunatics, because no matter what you do it's NEVER enough for them.

It's hard to view them as anything but angry entitled brats upset that their "waifu" didn't get in considering they're demanding the most overtly sexual character from the ARMS roster.
