I understand what you are saying, but I certainly disagree that my tone is divisive. I credit Nintendo for growing with the times and improving their depictions of the characters in more modern games.

The point stands that the characterizations of the fighters in the NES version can be interpreted as racially insensitive at worst and lazy at best.

Thank you for reading.
