    Super Mario Galaxy, innocent, cute, friendly, and subliminally insulting you every time you take it out of the case. I was told about this from the Grade 12 sex ed. teacher. Check it out.

    You are questioning your sexuality just by looking at this
    You are questioning your sexuality just by looking at this


    Seems pretty normal right? But look at the tiny bright stars under a few letters. Now take the letters with the shiny  bright stars under them and you will end up with "U R MR GAY". Someone at Nintendos art department has a sick sense of humor.

    And I love it.

    How the hell did your teacher notice that! And surprisingly it's actually true in that picture.

    Yeah, this has been known for a while. It's like that on the boxart too. Just some graphic designer slipping in a little joke.

    I could go take a teacher of my copy of SMG, but I'm too lazy. I can confirm that it is real and that U R MR GAY is there with the shiny stars. Heres a boxart picture.

    Just look closely, you'll see it

    Very true. This first was pointed out on NeoGAF back in 2007, and was covered by all the major gaming blogs.

    Wow, that is hilarious. It seems someone on the inside was just as disappointed with Super Mario Galaxy as I was. Dude, whoever you are, way to go.

    That's what I was thinking. It's either a coincidence or the graphic designer having a laugh. Either way, it doesn't really matter.

    #3 MTYH: Nintendo Wii is Great For Kids

    Why Nintendo? Why hide a secret “UR MR GAY” message on the box of your latest Super Mario game? This latest move by Nintendo is just sickening. Many kids will be buying Super Mario Galaxy expecting to get a great game… instead they will be told that they are GAY. There’s no defending Nintendo on this one. They intentionally put this message on the box of their game, it’s NO COINCIDENCE. Does this sound like a great console for kids?

    Hey Gorillawhat, YOU SUCK.
    Ha ha ha. You can't respond because you're gone and will probably never see this, which makes this victory all the sweeter.

    Anyway, I'm guessing it's some designers idea of a joke. Kinda funny. News to me.
