Why is it that only a black character can make the game diverse? It would only be fair if we had have every single race on earth included in MK8. I don't ever see anyone play the race card when there is no Native Americans in a game. What is it with black people? There are many other races in the world and I don't see why we only complain that there isn't black characters in the game. Either complain about every other ethnicity or shut up because blacks are not the only minority.
To be fair it's not black people complaining about equality in video games, it's mostly white liberals stroking their egos by thinking they're helping minorities by getting outraged about everything.
This is a poor argument. It's seeking to devalue the points made because they're not being made about all races. Yes, the discussion should be about all POC rather than just black people. This does not mean that the discussion of black people in video games lacks value.

The problem is the only "human" looking characters represented by Nintendo are all White people. No other race/ethnicity is being represented. Mario, Luigi, Princess, Link, Zelda, Samus, etc they're all White.
