Do any of you Italian vidya gamers find Mario to be an offensive stereotype?
I thought he was Mexican.
>>331996138
I find annoying the way he talks but I don't feel offended
>>331996138
No, if anything I'm a little happy to be associated with such widely known vidya icon.
Fuck you Brooklynfags with your shitty US cartoon, Mario is Italian.
no, because he is actually kicking ass unlike Italy in general
>>331996138
Well I for one am offended that shitlords at nintendo have made us Italians seem like were nothing, but bunch of smelly fat mamma-mia saying plumbers who only have spaghetti and ravioli on our minds.
>>331996138
I live near the Italian border. Italy is a beautiful country, but the government let it rot.
Especially the southern part of Italy is a complete dump.
I also don't know, why italiens build houses and never renovate them.
>>331996887
No one gives a shit. If you are offended by it you are a kekold.

Don't make check your privilege faggot.
Nobody here gives a shit. We all love Mario.
We italians love stereotypes. We make up stereotypes about ourselves, we costanlty joke about regional stereotypes, we make fun of everyone and everything.
In italy racism is racism, not making a joke.
Do you think about italy as a first world country, or something more like mexico?

No, I am actually happy to see such an iconic vidya character related to us. Italy is rarely relevant in vidya.Also I find a sort of petty solace in Mario: another small thing to be proud of while our country rots and falls deeper into the pits of hellmfw i nostri politici di merda vogliono far entrare ancora più emigranti e rifugiati che porteranno solo più caos, il rischio di infiltrazioni terroristiche e povertà

I said "rarely", not "never". Assassin's Creed II did a great job at showing our country and I loved Hitman 2.
We still can't produce or develop a decent game that isn't a sport/soccer thing, though. Apart from a few indie, pixel horror games, we are basically non-existent as vidya developers.

Io non vorrei dire, ma, se fossi io venuto qua da un barcone, la prima cosa che tenterei di fare sarebbe andarmene in francia, germania, svezia o inghilterra.
La crisi migranti sta venendo molto, molto esagerata: lo dico io che sono in un quartiere popolare di torino in cui i migranti decisamente non mancano.
La maggior parte, se ne va via (leggi, li lasciamo passare) e comunque diamo molto meno rispetto a quanto non diano gli altri europei.
A me sta sui coglioni che l'europa ci stia lasciando in culo e mi stanno ancora di più sui coglioni gli slavi che se ne fottono di aiutarci quando 10 anni fa gli abbiamo salvato il culo.

>Io non vorrei dire, ma, se fossi io venuto qua da un barcone, la prima cosa che tenterei di fare sarebbe andarmene in francia, germania, svezia o inghilterra.
I migranti sono praticamente divisi in due tipi: quelli che vogliono andare nell'Europa del nord (Svezia, Germania, Inghilterra) perché sinceramente vogliono salvare le loro famiglie e costruirsi una nuova vita, e i delinquenti scappati dal loro paese che vogliono venire qui perché tanto (testuali parole prese da un'intercettazione) "qui la legge non esiste e anche se ti prendono non ti fanno niente."
L'Europa ce lo sta mettendo nel culo perché sostanzialmente abbiamo voluto noi questa cosa (anche tramite il progetto Mare Nostrum): il nostro Paese si becca una bella marea di fondi per la salvaguardia di questa gente (che ovviamente ce magnamo), donazioni alla Chiesa che ci mangia sopra come una scrofa, il rischio ridotto di sanzioni ("Booh wooh, dobbiamo aiutarci tutti, viva l'amore, viva la fratellanza, non dovete rifiutare nessuno! ... Aspè, fateci costruire un muro intanto").
Gli slavi sono fra quelli che emigrano qui, sai cosa gliene frega di aiutarci. Se nel passato la nostra posizione geografica era un punto positivo, ora è solo una gran rottura di palle. E ora come ora, "due musulmani in più" a cui girano i coglioni e che hanno un'educazione estremista possono farsi esplodere in una metropolitana e fare una strage.

La vedo dura il farsi esplodere
Pare semplice ma l'organizzazione che serve per un attentato è comunque molto più semplice che farsi esplodere comodi comodi.
Ricordo sempre a tutte le persone spaventate da attentati del genere che l'italia ha uno dei sistemi di intelligence interna migliori in europa, grazie agli anni di piombo e al terrorismo delle br, molto più spaventoso di questo odierno.
Per il resto concordo sulla faccenda dell'europa, rimane secondo me uno scempio il fatto che non aiutino noi e la grecia, ma anzi che diano soldi ai bastardi dei turchi che stanno pure finanziando l'isis senza alcuna ombra di dubbio.
Che si inculino gli slavi che entrano in europa e si fanno dare solo i benefici, i turchi e gli arabi per aver scatenato la faccenda dei migranti in primo luogo e soprattutto gli americani: con la peggiore politica estera della storia moderna.

>>331996138
We italians are smart bastards who either ravage each other or think about their own economic situation since our politicians can't fix our situation and disinformation runs freely even on TV channels
I honestly don't think anybody in the world is offended by an old plumber with a thick moustache and a bad pronounce, mostly because way too many italians only have a basic knowledge of english and they do sound like Mario
Or even worse
>>332004325
Non metto in dubbio che abbiamo un'ottima intelligence, ma siamo anche i coglioni che anni fa hanno rilasciato uno degli attentatori di Bruxelles per "mancanza di elementi" quando invece era invischiato nel terrorismo fino al collo.
Uno dei nostri maggiori problemi che tanto mi fa rodere il sentimento è che abbiamo gente che si impegna veramente, uno dei sistemi legali migliori al mondo che tutti ci hanno copiato, eppure non riusciamo a organizzarci e a mantenere in piedi un cazzo. Non facciamo rispettare le regole che abbiamo imposto, viviamo nel menefreghismo e "lo fanno tutti" totale e alla fine ci lamentiamo e piangiamo addosso o diamo la colpa ad altri.
L'Europa deve darsi una svegliata, sì. Gli slavi sono i furbastri del momento che si stanno approfittando della situazione; gli americani sono un disastro totale e non voglio neppure immaginare cosa cavolo faranno, non importa il nuovo presidente che sceglieranno.

Mac and cheese is elbow noodles with a thick cheese sauce, typically covered in croutons and baked (unless you're asking about that kraft mac and cheese shit, because that's just fucking awful).
Hamburger Helper has nothing to do with Italy, it just has pasta. Hamburger Helper has more in common with Russia (since one of the most popular hamburger helper things is a beef stroganoff).
