This is the best summary I could come up with:


The remake of the Nintendo game "Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door" includes a transgender character, according to a review of the game, which was remade for the Nintendo Switch platform in the U.S.

The character Vivian, who appeared in the original version of the game, released on Gamecube in 2004, is one of three sisters who are some of the game's villains, opposing its hero, Mario.

"Truth is, it took me a while to realize I was their sister… not their brother," Vivian tells the player at a point in the game.

The publication, which reviews video games, had Vivian on the list because in the non-English versions of the game, Vivian has always talked about her gender identity.

In the Italian version of the game, Vivian says she is proud of her transition, according to ING.

CBS News has reached out to Nintendo for comment and is awaiting response.
