I get it, I also agree Nintendo is an awful, greedy corporation that happens to make fun games from time to time. However, this is a pretty big deal in Japan. For a company to openly support a still quite socially, culturally taboo topic there, is pretty crazy to see.
Anyway, I guess my point is, if they’re condoning and supporting the advancement of civil rights for a stigmatized demographic, I think that’s important, even if the company is still a shitty, greedy husk.

They’re only doing this because public opinion has already shifted towards acceptance of LGBT people.
Virtue signalling is still better than doing nothing.
