than a dreamland as you learn about deep connections crazy origins and some of the most violent content ever to be seen from Nintendo say what Kirby before you watch click subscribe you'll join our notification squad a me the first to know of new content without further ado here are 10 dark secrets you never knew about Kirby a bloody battle lieutenant has always been known for a family-friendly affair when Mario died in early games he pretty much just shrugged Bowser would disappear without seeing the damage to his body teams would often be censored or heavily edited to ensure content was completely appropriate just super kid friendly it makes you wonder how Kirby's Dreamland 3 slipped through the cracks the game plays off like a regular Kirby game until players reached the true final boss battle and were presented with blood and gore never before seen in an official Nintendo game the graphics were limited but it's still blood nonetheless in the final boss battle Kirby takes on a giant eyeball known as zero one zero gets weakened some of the final hit showcased blood splattering out of the eye before the pupil completely detaches every hit after that delivers extra squirts of blood before Kirby finally delivers his final blow it's like a Tarantino movie or something despite all the blood the original game was released with a rating of E for Everyone future releases of the game had the ratings changed and altered for example in the release of kirby's dream collection special edition Kirby's Dream Land 3 received a rating of e 10 plus meaning that it was only recommended for players over the age of 10 and due to the bloody nature imagine how graphic it would look like with an updated 3d release rated M for Mature Kirby's gun control Kirby's powers are completely unique at first he was only able to suck in objects and blast them back out but things have dramatically changed over the years Kirby has the ability to take on other characters powers and use them as his own while he's able to use swords tools and other weapons he never showcased the need for a gun if you were to watch Kirby right back at you it would be a whole different story Kirby gets a little trigger-happy the animated series starring Kirby and his pals originally aired from 2001 to 2003 it debuted in Japan but also had episodes dubbed in United States as well when comparing the two series he would see a lot of differences especially when it comes to gun violence in original episodes guns are often used by Kirby in one Episode Kirby plays a police officer where he blasts off multiple rounds of a machine gun even for a cartoon the show was incredibly violent so it's no wonder why it was heavily edited for the United States oh so completely relevant now though right along with the gun use another episode showcases king to day day wielding a chainsaw and using it as a weapon now we've got another Leatherface on our hands that's great as if the violence wasn't enough Kirby and his friends are even seen casually enjoying cocktails together and underage drinking okay nothing like a little guns and booze in a Saturday morning cartoon hey Kirby hates link Kirby seems to get along with a lot of his extended Nintendo universe friends but this wasn't always the case long before Kirby participated in Super Smash Bros battles he was waging war against one of Nintendo's most beloved heroes linked in 1993 the Game Boy game The Legend of zelda links awakening was released in the adventure title link battles his usual foes and makes his way through typical dungeons but a big surprise comes in one of the castles PES link makes his way through one of the corridors he comes across a familiar looking face oh it's Kirby himself don't get too close though because this version of Kirby isn't friendly people use his powers to swallow ling colon and spit them back out with damage applied luckily Kirby can't be fought off and killed with a few swings of the sword fans in the united states were upset by the evil version of Kirby and actually referred to him as anti Kirby even though his character name and the original Japanese release refers to him as just Kirby oddly the Kirby character only appears once in the game and there's really no explanation for him being there other than a doormat link and cause a little extra trouble on his journey his appearance is even more evident in the Game Boy Color version of the game the secret stage may be the focus was placed too much on franchises like Zelda and Mario but Kirby developers got away with a lot when sneaking in adult content to their games shocking one of their more risque releases was Kirby's Dreamland 2 for the Game Boy in 1995 in level 5 five players can access a secret door that leads to a drop-down bonus level as you drop through the level you'll notice a number of platform blocks scattered across the sky at first the blocks seem random but if you follow the level closely you will notice a pattern it starts off innocently enough with a smiley face until you discover the elements directly below it are formed into the shape of a woman's chest oh my it gets even more revealing from there as the rest of the female anatomy is shown avert your eyes kids it's nothing to grow to attest but pretty revealing for our 10 year old selves discovering the level while playing on our game voice and then maybe discovering ourselves while it may be hard to find a cartridge of the game now a full version of Kirby's Dreamland 2 was released for the Nintendo 3ds console with a quick download you can travel the world's 5 5 and discover the secret stage for yourself you might even feel like a kid again and reveal Kirby's secrets to all your friends Meta Knight in the iron mask one of Kirby's greatest foes through the years have been in the Meta Knight the masked fighter loves some good swordplay but he also has some mystery to him it's rare to see the Meta Knight without his mask on but when it is removed we can see he's basically a clone of Kirby himself while Kirby is pink in color Meta Knight is appeared with both black and blue skin color with more modern versions of Meta Knight appearing in blue skin although we've got glimpses of Meta Knight there is still a lot of mystery behind the character he obviously goes through a lot of struggles and even though he is Kirby's enemy he has helped him on numerous occasions he loves to test Kirby through battles sword fights and numerous challenges this begs the question about meta Knights origins he looks like Kirby he's assisted him on multiple occasions and still feels the need to hide his identity is he related to Kirby somehow what was his childhood like is about a knight an evil clone struggling with his identity or maybe evil Kirby from the darkest timeline the mystery grows year after year's Nintendo continues to remain quiet meta Knights most recent appearance in the Kirby franchise is in the Kirby battle royale in the fighting game Meta Knight can be unlocked but all of his deep dark secrets remain buried for now an angry Kirby how angry can a little pink blob get just that's the North American marketing team for Nintendo in Japan Kirby appears on his game cover releases and advertisements as a happy character floating around and ready for his next adventure in North America things are a little more serious on multiple game covers Kirby's happy faces been replaced for a more aggressive one he looks angry changes his body bows and even holds extra weapons in some of the covers you won't like Kirby when he's angry some of the prime examples of the difference in moods can be seen on the GameCubes release of Kirby's air ride and the we release of Kirby's Return to Dreamland the North American release of Kirby's Epic Yarn was one of the rare titles to feature a happy kirby in North America another crazy example of the angry Kirby syndrome came with an advertising campaign for Super Nintendo in a brandade Kirby appears in a fake mug shot illustration to help promote both Kirby's Avalanche and Kirby's Dream course not only does he have an angry look on his face but he has stubble on his pink face well five o'clock shadow the ad is paired with the quote he used to be such a good boy the old jail theme attempted to give Kirby a harder look so gamers wouldn't think the game just caters to young children and it was weird a competitive advantage Super Smash Bros was one of the most inventive ideas Nintendo could create mixing different series like Mario starfox Pokemon and Kirby created a great world addictive gameplay and awesome multiplayer options when first glancing at some of the massive rosters in the Super Smash Bros series you may think that characters like Link Mario or Sheamus are the most powerful once the tears are broken down this isn't the case at all in multiple versions of Super Smash Bros you can find Kirby and other Kirby characters near the top of the performance test meta Knights role in Super Smash Bros Brawl puts him in his own tier because he's so powerful and strong in the game Meta Knight is so strong in the game he's actually banned for many tournaments because of his unfair advantage Kirby is nearly just as high causing lots of damage to his opponents and enemies and matches his only drawback is that he's a light character who he's easily send flying across the map think it's a random draw and some lucky powers it was actually all done on purpose the creator of the Kirby games Masahiro Sakurai is also the developer of Super Smash Bros and his love for the Kirby characters has clearly been transferred into Super Smash Bros in reality there are a lot of other characters with more strength and power than Meta Knight but he still built as an unstoppable monster for Super Smash Bros Brawl it's it's just totally unfair really Kirby the detective in other countries do a lot of strange things with Nintendo characters while video game content typically remains the same from country to country it varies a lot differently when characters are used in print for the German Edition for the Nintendo fan club Kirby was introduced as a tough detective in a comic series wait what with no explanation Kirby started taking on a ton of different cases each one with a noir theme and some very dark subplots while doing work in his office it wasn't uncommon to see Kirby pull out a cigarette and have a puff or two but the illustrators know how much blowing power Kirby would lose due to extended smoking plus it would stunt his growth looking closely at comic panels you can spot even more questionable items there's a whole ashtray full of cigarette butts making Kirby look like a chain smoker next to that is a shot glass with a bottle of hard liquor it could be whiskey or something else but it's definitely not kool-aid another surprising part of the comic is the introduction of SUSE Kirby's female companion who's never been seen in the games Susie looks similar to Kirby with one defining difference being that bow attached to her head that's really all you need to make somebody a female in Nintendo the full detective case was released in 1996 as a whole comic book and an issue of the german club nintendo magazine the magazine was never released in other countries but copies were obtained scanned and shared online thanks Internet Kirby defeats Mario when it comes to Nintendo and Awards Mario typically takes the prize he's won many awards throughout the years from all types of publications they are usually well deserved due to Mario's impact on the gaming industry and the variety of games the former plumber has appeared in while it may seem like a lot of characters such as Luigi donkey Khan and Kirby are always living in Mario's shadow this wasn't the case in 1993 throughout the late 1980s and 1990s Nintendo released their official magazine known as Nintendo Power each year the magazine published a list of accolades known as the Nintendo Power awards the awards include all types of categories including best graphics best theme and best challenge making his NES debut in 1993 Kirby was nominated for best hero at the annual awards other nominees in the category included Batman Luke Skywalker link and of course super Mario Mario was nominated for the game Super Mario all-stars so Kirby was taking on the best of the best of the Mario world plus a super hero and a Jedi good luck Kirby Kirby won the prestigious award and helped cement his legacy among Nintendo's elite the game he wanted for was Kirby's Adventure the first instance of the hero getting control of other characters powers when he swallowed them with the award Kirby can forever boast about his huge victory over Mario Kirby on steroids Curbeam a balloon up when he sucks in air but his statistics have been pretty clear since the beginning the pink creature only stands around eight inches tall while the short character design works for all of Kirby's solo games it's a little bit different when it comes to other titles for example in Super Smash Bros how can the eight inch tall Kirby stand toe-to-toe with other characters like Pikachu the answer seems pretty simple Kirby has taken some type of growth hormone unless he's stealing mushrooms from Mario Kirby is involved in some type of underground steroid ring no wonder his rankings are so high in the games and dino has never really provided an explanation for his size difference other than relying on players to suspend their disbelief it is a video game after all this would make a little sense if Donkey Kong and Bowser didn't appear as big as they do in the games something's up with Kirby because if he did appear true to his size he would get crushed like a bug from the competition if he were to appear in Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games the Olympic Committee would definitely be opening some sort of investigation on the hero here Kirby pee in this Cup no matter how Kirby got his size he has been an integral part of the Super Smash Bros franchise and will continue to battle in his meteor forum well there you have it what facts
