Nintendo is taking down videos that show a modded version of Super Mario Bros. Wonder with swearing flowers.
The game isn't even out yet, but already it's playable on PC via emulators and leaked copies. That means it's moddable too.
That's exactly what modder Contendo did, making all the talking flowers in the game swear.

Nintendo has, understandably, decided it is not going to stand for that and Contendo's videos - shared on X, formerly Twitter - have since been removed.
"The video is funnier now honestly," said the modder.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is due out this Friday, 18th October. But beware, spoilers are already out there - on top of these modded memes.
And no, the game wasn't inspired by the Super Mario Bros. Movie.
