Luigi knows ASL

| No Comments

I sent email to Nintendo about Mario Golf:

Hello.

    My name's David Fulmer. Being profoundly deaf, my main method of communication is American Sign Language (ASL).

    I bought Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour for GameCube and has been playing addictive since July 28th 2003. I have played every character, include secret characters. I enjoyed seeing the characters actions & behaviors after the ball got into the hole. Each character has different actions & behaviors such as birdie (happy), par (calm), eagle (excite), bogey (sad), and double bogey (upset).

    One day, I am using the character, Luigi. I noticed something bizarre about his actions after birdie the hole:

This sign language image was taken from 1994 Random House Webster's American Sign Language Dictionary, page 248.

I am sure how I feel about the Luigi's animated sign language in the game, making the humorous to a deaf person who plays the game and use the character, Luigi.

I am glad if you could give me the feedback. Thank you for your time to read this.

Heh, It must be funny, really funny.

UPDATE: Nintendo replied back this comment.
