    PETA just does this stuff to get attention. Hate to say it, but you're giving them exactly what they want. Probably would be better off just ignoring those nut jobs... as long as they're not breaking any laws that is.

    This article may have just made my day.

    This is my favorite thing they've done since the Sea Kittens. Which surprisingly is still online AND with more things to choose from!

    And let's not forget this classic game.

    Should we tell them about Snake Eater? Perhaps we all should be worried about Super Meat Boy? Time to check the Burgertime Chef to make sure he is only serving the fniest soy based patties??? :confused2

    What PETA doesn't like to tell you is that they're the leader in pet euthanasia.
    In 2009, PETA euthanized 2,301 dogs and cats -- 97 percent of those brought in -- and adopted only eight, according to Virginia state figures.

    Apparently, PETA has turned, and are now claiming it was "all a joke", and that they "love the Mario games."

    If i had a fire flower for every IQ point PETA does not have, I could set the world ablaze with 8-bit fire

    Even still, by using Mario in a video game they are technically stealing Nintendo's intellectual property...I can't wait to see how this gets handled.

    Parody is fair use.

    I suppose, I rarely think of PETA's actions as falling under parody however.

    Well that and in Canada parody is not a defence to a copyright claim...such as featuring a character of intellectual property in a video-game.

    EDIT: The game nowhere mentions Nintendo as the original creator of Mario. Therefore under neither Canada's copyright law or 'Fair Dealing' is it protected and is thus considered copyright infringement and theft of intellectual property.

    Of course I don't know what the copyright laws in the US are so this is purely my own viewpoint based on the laws I know of.

    I love animals, I love videogames, I love a good steak, because they hate these things (and are crazy)
    I HATE PETA, anyone with a normal mind and an IQ over seven (7) can stomach video game violence normally.
