I have been observing Nintendo's treatment of Birdo since Mario Kart Double Dash and onwards starting with the GBA remake of SMB2 with Super Mario Advance. She was playable in Double Dash, but the disrespect only started from there. She was a boss 당신 had to beat up 의해 throwing her own eggs at her in the OG of SMB2. She was a boss 당신 had to physically assault in Super Mario RPG and the first entry of the Mario and Luigi series, where she was partnered with Popple. Already flipped the disrespect switch right there. She was missing 또는 removed from (6?) Mario Kart games. She helps 당신 in Wario's Woods, but she's not in Super Mario Kart, 또는 Mario Kart 64, depsite being playable in Mario 테니스 64? OK, makes sense (not!). She was removed from Mario Kart DS and replaced 의해 Daisy, but her 담홍색, 핑크 Egg 1 still exists in the files of the game. The finish line of Coconut Mall in Mario Kart Wii looks to be in Birdo's colors, but she still doesn't have her own course. This was changed to red and white in 8 Deluxe. Birdo hasn't reappeared in the Mario Kart franchise until 8 Deluxe as DLC, and Tour as a 랜덤 chance driver to get. In Mario Kart 7's N64 Luigi Circuit, there are several copies of the OG 담홍색, 핑크 Birdo (with a red bow) in the stands. I'll post a 사진 I took as evidence. Why would 닌텐도 lock her away from us 팬 as purchasable DLC in 8 Deluxe?? To get money off of us, that's why. But I'm not giving any to them. They did Birdo and her fanbase dirty. Also, there's no toy version of her in her Wild Wing. When is that gonna be made? In games where she is unlockable for free, we had to do some ridiculously hard tasks, like do 16 different Time Trials in Mario Kart Wii, 또는 get a gold trophy in Mushrom Tourney (Hard) in Mario Hoops 3-on-3. This has to stop. Birdo deserves 더 많이 사랑 and attention. I don't know if the 팬 here put up with it, because I sure won't. Birdo is the best Mario character because she's cute, funny, a physical powerhouse, and won't take sh*t from anyone who insults her and calls her ugly. Haters beware.
