The story and work of Gary Bowser is pretty badass and would make for an interesting ama and event on lemmy. Here’s a recent article on Gary Bowser https://torrentfreak.com/gary-bowser-how-a-1980s-hacker-became-nintendos-nemesis-decades-later-230702/

I somehow read his name as Gay Browser at first

So long, Gay Bowser!

In all seriousness though, I wanna hear more about how Nintendo fucked with him. What we know is already crazy so ya.

That's only slightly more ridiculous than the actual name. How is it real that someone named Bowser is in an IP dispute with Nintendo?

The president of Nintendo of America is actually Doug Bowser. No relation, I'm assuming.

If someone could make this happen I’d love to read it
