Hooray it’s back! Interesting topic that came to mind, sort of related to the podcast we’re trying to make function properly. What do you guys think?

Edit: I enjoy that- despite the new channel, new camera, and new “season”- youtube still picks the greatest thumbnails. So good. So brave.

Like almost every game out there, a bunch of content didn’t make it into the final release of Super Mario Galaxy.

Some items are more interesting than others. For instance, EAD Tokyo made a fortress level at the very beginning of development that was ultimately cut. There are more planets, characters, and objects that were scrapped as well.

We’ve posted a gallery above that offers a look at some of Galaxy’s cut elemenets. You can find even more photos and a ton of details over at The Cutting Room Floor.

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– Nintendo fans found a spectacular way to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the iconic Kirby™ video game character. On Sept. 1 at the PAX Prime conference in Seattle, 536 attendees gathered together and set a new Guinness World Records® achievement for the most people blowing a chewing gum bubble simultaneously. Participants had fun blowing bubbles that resembled the round, pink Kirby and helped Nintendo of America celebrate, after a representative from Guinness World Records confirmed the official record-setting count.

The new world record added to the growing excitement about Kirby at PAX Prime, where attendees had an early chance to experience Kirby’s Dream Collection: Special Edition for the Wii™ system. Launching Sept. 16, this commemorative game collection includes six classic Kirby games on one disc, plus a commemorative booklet, a music CD and an interactive timeline that gives players a fun way to explore Kirby’s colorful history. Since debuting in 1992, Kirby has starred in 22 video games that collectively have sold more than 33 million units worldwide. His distinctive appearance and unique ability to inhale enemies and copy their abilities have made him a fan favorite for two decades.
