In commemoration of the 10 year anniversary of marriage equality in Massachusetts, Last Week Tonight lampooned the lack of same-sex relationships in Nintendo’s Tomodachi Life by making a video showing beloved Nintendo characters enjoying domestic bliss.

Sure, the updates Nintendo has promised to Tomodachi Life won’t feature Bowser and Donkey Kong enjoying a romantic dinner, but hopefully they’ll still be a step in the direction of virtual equality.
