For a self-effacing, portly little plumber, Mario may be the most ambitious guy in video games. It's not enough that he has the most recognizable face in the industry; his parents at Nintendo have promoted him everywhere, from T-shirts and lunchboxes to cartoons and cell-phone ringtone...

How does Kirby find himself wrapped up in another crusade for the residents of Dream Land? Not surprisingly, the notoriously naughty King Dedede is to blame. King Dedede has stolen the Star Rod, ...

By MattG Some folks were concerned that the rise of Nintendo's Virtual Console service would lead to a lack of the company re-releasing beloved older games with a fresh coat of paint for modern platforms.  While that may be the case in some instances, it's not always a sure thing.  Consider the class...

By Heavily Medicated: & FOR A GOOD CAUSE! MY SANITY! I beat the first level with King Dedede. But the other two are proving to be more difficult. And now my co-workers think I'm nutters (even more so than what they normally do.) because every time I die, I start cursing under my breath. ...

This game is not only addicting like any Kirby game, but this game takes MUCH longer to play. This is probably the best one because of the depthness of the game. Nintendo and HAL Labs did a GREAT job on creating ...

By Nadia Oxford The details of the transition from "Popopo" to "Kirby" are lost to time: Sakurai can't remember how Kirby got his final moniker. Popular belief is that he's named after the "Kirby" brand of vacuum cleaners, though it's also possible that it came from John Kirby, the superhero lawyer who sa...

By Joe Haygood So last week, Nintendo served up a juicy bit of news, that discussed a “celestial event” that would occur this week involving their pink, lovable character, Kirby. Do I have to mention how this just adds fuel to the “what the hell is Nintendo doing” fire that has been building since E3.

By Wootini You've gotta give Nintendo credit... somebody in their marketing department is either a total genius or cracked out of their mind.

Nothing ever really changes in Kirby's world, does it? Nintendo leaves the innovation to Kirby spin-off series'. I think that's exactly how it should be. Kirby is a great innovator, and a classic platforming star. I think it's great that Nintendo tries out new, fresh ideas ...

By Kuefler Kirby’s last big game for a console, Kirby’s Air Raid, was also a big diversion from the main franchise.

In Kirby’s Drea...

By Harry The art with the unusual witch-like creature for “Detroit’s Zombi” is unsigned. I cannot say precisely why, but it looks like Avison’s work to me.
