Everyone has a dark past. "You don't get to 500 million fans without making few enemies."
Yeah, but the movies and recent games are trying to pretend Mario was never an animal-abuser.

So, Sega are upset they're not making enough sale, yet practically giving the game away now?

At least the movie acknowledges the third brother ...

They are not upset. They just report how it was going and what's their strategy for next fiscal. Game sites and youtubers are the one who wrote as if they're upset.

Well, you gotta mind since he's already has a name: Guiseppe

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RMC9PcqHeNU



Also some fans has a theory that Guiseppe was Mario the Jumpman in Donkey Kong and Donkey Kong Jr since his design was based on Jumpman.
There are three Mario, right?
Mario Mario, Luigi Mario, and Guiseppe Mario.
This could be used to erase the dark past of Mario.
The one who's an animal abuser was Guiseppe.

I thought Guiseppe was merely for a voice-cameo by Charles Martinet, Mario's canon voice actor.

Yes and I think it's a nice gesture from Universal to include him.

Clear English? But Mario is an Italian ... who grew up in New York.
