Kirby's Rainbow Resort

Bucky Katt never wrote in, or I never got his message. So, you're stuck with the usual suspects for Mailbag 40, which is around the same age most guys have midlife crises? (IT'S WHY YOUR DAD BOUGHT A MOTORCYCLE, KIDS.)

I think every Mailbag is its own midlife crisis, though...

Asotoku is Welsh and author of the upcoming 101 Things To Not Send In To The Mailbag.

Diddgery recently attended Comic-Con. A leading expert on Cricecorn Anatomy, he is writing a thesis paper on how their digestive system is able to endure a live bee in it for 2 hours. Or something. I don't know, I really don't give a darn.

Disaster likes anime and we've all given up hope as far as he goes.

Shiro left towards the end of this mailbag for no apparent reason and Asotoku had to answer for him instead. They're pretty much the same person anyways.

-RMD

Dale is insane, RMDE something? forgot your name your funny, weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

RMD: We didn't get very many letters this go around, so we have to answer to things like this! If you want a better KRR Mailbag in the future, make sure to write in!

Shiro: ... i'm sorry, who's insane?

Diddgery: What is this? Did a bunch of incredibly hyperactive kids get together and mash the keyboard?

Disaster: Too much anti-depressants.

Asotoku: A preview of my new book - 101 Things To Not Send In To The Mailbag.

hey guys i have something interesting to tell you about: My cat acts like Kirby! Here's how:

1) He eats whatever is in front of him (mainly just cat food)

2) He moves around alot (like how Kirby must go through various levels to get to the end of the game)

3) He always fights something stronger than him at some point, whether it be a piece of string, my foot (OUCH!) or the strongest one, my cat Nightshade (who's 4 years older than him!)

Neat, eh?

Diddgery: ...A piece of string is stronger than your cat? That's, um... i-interesting..

Asotoku: If Kirby fought something stronger than him, then he wouldn't be able to get to the end of the game ??

Shiro:
1) you just contradicted yourself
2) cats tend to do that, you know?
3) see #2.

Disaster: What makes that any different from any other cat? You just want to think your silly cat is special.

...well...I never commented in the mailbag before (to be honest I never noticed it), but I've actually been around here for awhile. man, KWRPG was so much fun...

....First off the series will most DEFINATLY still exsist. If it doesn't I'll go back to my first username, Kirby64.

...Sadly I've never played any of the SNES games. I'm 13 right now; so the first Kirby game I saw was Kirby 64. However I'm slowly able to play the classic games once more thx to the wii; I've got Kirby's Adventure (I was a little surprised when I found it was just Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland with 8 bit graphics. Still, it was fun playing thru it again. Also, for the gameboy games, I actually just ordered Kirby's Dreamland and Kirby's Dreamland 2. Are there any more Original GB and GBC installments?

And MAN, do I love deep storylines; so I hope they'll explain what's up with Metaknight. Though I get the feeling they'll never tell us...
Seriously. It's like those books where they end the book with...nothing really, so you speculate at what you think happened.

Guess that's it;
One last irrelevant question; Whatever happened to the beautiful beta Kirby Gamecube game they showed? not the kirby tilt and tumble 2; They just called it Kirby. Will it go to the wii instead like Super Paper Mario?

RMD: It's coming out for the Wii.. one day. :\

Asotoku: They've listed a Kirby Wii, which we all assume to be the Gamecube game, but recently someone in Nintendo said not to give up on Kirby on the Gamecube yet.

Diddgery: Whoa whoa whoa slow down. First off, the only things on the GB aside from those are Kirby Star Stacker and Kirby Pinball Land, so don't worry about that.

Oh also I think that Kirby's Adventure is better than Nightmare in Dreamland because I think they toned down the difficulty in NiD quite a bit.

Shiro: oh. i haven't been following the GC Kirby thing muchly.

Disaster:
1) lol, exsist.
2) It's called ROMs. And Nightmare in Dream Land is just Adventure with 32-bit graphics.
3) There's Kirby's Pinball Land, Kirby's Star Stacker, and Kirby's Block Ball, but those aren't platforming games.
4) They'll never reveal anything about Meta Knight ever.
5) Kirby (tentative title) was mentioned recently at E3 2007, so it isn't dead just quite yet!

Hello gentlemen (and possibly ladies) of the mailbag. I bring tidings of Kirby.
In 2010, Nintendo MIGHT have someone like Sakurai there to steer the Kirby games to the right place. I'm an anime fan, although I agree that it could be a total disaster to have characters like Fumu in the games. I thought about some cool stuff they could add for a little bit of added interest and difficulty; an energy meter for abilities. If you breath fire too long, you get tired and lose the ability. BUT, if you use little bursts, it won't go down all the way, because it will refill over time. Maybe there could even be emotions to add special effects, like anger to make attacks more powerful (like when you get hit), and fear that makes you faster (like when your health is in the red zone). Also, enemies will give you a TINY bit of health when you eat them. And, you will have ACTUAL PLOT. A good one, kinda like the Crystal Shards one. The Squeak Squad one was HORRIBLE, and I ONLY played it because it was a Kirby game, and stuff.

If Kirby's games go bad enough, maybe he'll become a secret character in all the later SSB titles, in order to honor Sakurai.

I wish I could give Nintendo GOOD ideas. I think they have the wrong kinds of ones for Kirby. But, who knows? Maybe he'll become insanely popular, like Pokemon!

Yeah, I know this is the topic from 39, but... Eh, does it really matter?

If I get a Piplup, which of these names is best; Dedede, RMD, or ArrEmmDee? I want one.

Thanks for your time, and sorry for the long letter. I just hope this gets answered.

Can you tell me what you think of my ideas?

Thanks again!

<(.n.n.)>

Disaster: "And, you will have ACTUAL PLOT. A good one, kinda like the Crystal Shards one." You lost me there. <(.n.n.)>

Asotoku: The health idea has been needed for a long while, but I think you should only get health if you eat something that doesn't give you an ability, so it doesn't become overkill. As for the piplup, call it RMD.

Diddgery: tl;dr. I'm just gonna say your ideas are silly and a good name for Piplup is RMD

RMD: A clever insult from Disaster! Crystal Shards had a bad plot if at all, yeah. Like they said, RMD is definitely the best name!

It will be a Kirby franchise in the fall of 2010. It will still exist after Kirby title. It will become as fun as it was in the SNES era one more time. I think it will not be any plot to explain.

In 2010, there will be a Kirby RPG, like Paper Mario. Others are Kirby sport titles: Kirby Golf, Kirby Tennis, Kirby Soccer, and Kirby Baseball. And some few titles like Kirby Party and Kirby: DDR Style.

What did you think? Am I wrong or right? (Scale 1 to 10)
That's all I say! Bye!

Asotoku: 1

Shiro: -2

Disaster: There already is a Kirby Golf you nincompoop; it's called Kirby's Dream Course. -π

Diddgery: Kirby is not Mario and never will be, and if there was a Kirby RPG I would be very happy but there's no chance really. ...how would Kirby DDR work that's just silly

RMD: Paper Kirby would be the best RPG ever... Also, BAT out of ten.

Is this your work? If not, just ignore me.
On 6:29, you miss-translated dedede's words.
he is saying 査察 or inspect.

Diddgery: WE'RE NOT IVY DAMNIT

Shiro: shouldn't ivy handle this

Asotoku: THERE'S A SPECIFIC MAILBAG-ESQUE THING FOR THIS CALLED KIRBY GURUS OR SOMETHING

RMD: If you have questions about the anime, there's this 20-something year old who refuses to grow up that is an expert on children's animation series here at our very own Kirby's Rainbow Resort!

Disaster: No one cares, it reads fine either way.

1. What do you guys think the chance is of the next handheld Kirby game using the same sprites as the past three have?
2. If Dale doesn't like Kirby games, what is he doing here? Looking for tasty hamsters?

RMD:
1) Embarassingly likely. Good going, HAL.
2) Laughing at all of us!

Asotoku:
1) I dunno!! Hopefully they'll realise that the DS can do more than sprites though, instead of abusing the touch screen in games that don't need it!
2) Who cares? It's Dale!

Disaster:
1) Seems rather likely!
2) Dale is Dale.

Diddgery:
1) pretty high!!
2) Because sometimes you wanna go where everybody knows your name, and they're always glad you came.

Shiro:
1) if they make another kirby handheld i am going to dropkick someone through a concrete floor.
2) what are you talking about? Dale LOEVS kirby.

Diddgery: ..y-you're not gonna dropkick me again, are you Shiro ;^;?

Hi, various insane people with lots of power!
(*coughnotsurewhetherinsulttopeopleacknwoledgingthey'reinsanecough*)

I have a few quick questions about video game bosses.

1.) Your Favourite Boss?
2.) Most Annoying Boss?
3.) Most Disapointing Boss?
4.) Hardest Boss you faced?

Here, I'll give mine:

1.) Ed the Undying : Kingdom of Loathing
2.) Moldorm (yellow worm) : LoZ:LttP
3.) Bowser : Super Mario Sunshine
4.) Broli (by The Necromancer) : Mugen (not sure if counts, owell.)

(Awaits someone to say someone else on mailbag, someone posting text, something about job boss, final boss of Dream Course, Bucky Kat, and Diddgery is a Bunnicorn (DQ)!)

Asotoku:
1) Doopliss
2) Biolizard??
3) Metal Overlord
4) I DUNNO I CAN'T REMEMBER I DON'T PLAY VIDEO GAMES OFTEN ANYMORE

RMD:
1) Lord Crump, maybe. I have a lot?
2) Agreement with Asotoku.
3) A lot of bosses in SPM looked pathetic and contributed to my apathy of the game?
4) Weil from Mega Man Zero 3 or 4 (i forget..) was a monster for me.

Diddgery: One time I drew a picture of a meeting between myself and a Bunnicorn. It's on my DeviantART somewhere but I don't feel like linking to it. Anyways...
1) Ultros [Final Fantasy VI]
2) Hades [Kingdom Hearts II]
3) The Koopa Bros. rematch from Paper Mario because it didn't happen.
4) KING ZINGER FROM DONKEY KONG COUNTRY 2 FFFFFFFFF

Disaster: I can't answer this correctly because I don't really keep tabs on those kinds of specifics when it comes to video game bosses.

Kirby and Meta Knight have been confirmed in Super Smash Bros Brawl! Yay! But here's one question ... with assist trophies and possibilities of playable characters ... who else do you think might join in for the fun ... I think Dedede will be an excellent character.

RMD:dedede will be playable

Disaster: I DUNNO KNUCKLE JOE MAYBE

Asotoku: IDK, MY BFF FOREVER, KNUCKLE JOE?

Diddgery: Like those guys said Knuckle Joe is an Assist Trophy but I am hoping Rick appears or maybe Gooey that'd be swell.

Shiro: if i hear one more person throw a fangirl seizure over putting more kirby characters into brawl i'm going to dropkick diddgery through a concrete floor. again.

Diddgery: ;^;

first of all, i am not english so if you find a spelling mistake dont be surprised, in fact, i love english, more than spanish, my language, well, enough!
i really love this site, i check all days if there are new updates.

well, i had been checking some old issues and i know you can't but i want to let all of you know that i would try to help in all the part of music, starting from the title that says "muisc and sounds" instead of "music and sounds", i would be glad to share my information... well, i think this is not the place to talk of this

i wanted to thank RR and this mailbag is precisely where i want to send my congratulations for all the staff.
i hope RR never closes! Keep on with the good work!

Diddgery: Like those guys said Knuckle Joe is an Assist Trophy but I am hoping Rick appears or maybe Gooey that'd be swell.
PS: i dont have nothing to say about the theme... is that ok, i think?

Disaster: Holy crap this is like the 500th time someone has pointed that out

RMD: I need to fix the theme..

Diddgery: Well thank you sir! Or madam, I don't really know. Don't be offended though, okay?

Shiro: you get a medal made of avocado.

Kirby should ride a skateboard.

RMD: um..

Diddgery: H-Homsar?! Dude, I thought you were on vacation! I haven't seen you in a while, you know? I guess you brought your laptop or something. Well, when you get back, you'll have to tell me about your trip, okay? I'll be waiting for your return.

Disaster: AAAaaaAAAaaaAAAaaaAAAaaaAAAaaaAAAaaaAAAaaaAAAaaa

Asotoku: This dinner party is top dollar!

Shiro: no.

RMD: I'm a trendy tote bag.

Hey guys!

1. What is your favorite ability in Squeak Squad? Mine is Ninja.
2. What would happen if Kirby swallowed.....a. Lucario b. Homestar c. God
3. When will Kirby ever be able to use Jet, Backdrop, or Mirror again? I don't have a Wii, SNES, or an emulator?

RMD:
1) Smash Kirby FTW.
2) [a] I'd get annoyed. [b] He'd have no hands! [c] He'd stop existing, lol.*
3) i dunno lol

Shiro:
1) probably ninja, yeah.
2) THAT IS 3 QUESTIONS, NOT ONE.
3) yes, because we obviously know when.

Asotoku:
1) Never played it!
2) Who knows!
3) Don't look now, I'm just a friendly reminder!

Diddgery:
1) Magic was cool.
2) Sewiouswy, Pom Pom.
3) Wing and Yo-Yo should make a return too amirite!?

Disaster:
1) Cra- oh wait Crash isn't in SqSq... still, Crash.
2) Haruhi Kirby!
3) Why did all of the cool abilities get neglected huh? And the cool attacks that came with them? IT'S A MYSTERY!

* RMD is not actually an athiest, he's just being edgy and cool! --Ed.

Has anyone ever played Adventures of Lolo for the NES. I have, and it made my brain hurt.

PS Can I have a cookie

Asotoku: No, and no.

Shiro: what aso said

RMD: what shiro said

Diddgery: The Adventures of Lolo? I hope you sh-shav-saved the receipt!

Disaster: Nope, not to my knowledge.

RMD! Its easy as Kir-rby!
Like it? I don't i was just bored. So...do you think there are other lifeforms on other planets. I do.

RMD: This is only in the mailbag because it says "RMD"!

Disaster: God that song is annoying to play on Elite Beat Agents!

Asotoku:
1) No
2) ††† GOD KNOWS THE ANSWER ††† * (aka yes)

Diddgery: Kirerby?

Shiro: no, axy. we are on the only planet in the entire universe capable of supporting life. yeah, that makes perfect sense. >:(

*Asotoku is from the United Kingdom. --Ed.

Hi there! I've already given my opinions on the theme.
List of characters I'd like to see in SSBB in importance order:
1. KING DEDEDE. DEFINITELY
2. Biospark.
3. DIDDGERY XD(just kidding)
4. l i s t e n d s h e r e
And finally, some questions!
What happened to Mailbag #36? I noticed that it's not there.
If Diddgery was to actually appear in SSBB, what kind of moves do you think Diddgery would have?
~Cacaruka

Diddgery: I am flattered that you decided to include me on your list!! Let's BEE friends! Ha ha ha ha ha see what I did there?

RMD:
1. YES.
2. He'd be an excellent Assist Trophy.
3. I'd play as him.
4. o h o k a y

1) Didn't happen.
2) We'll never know. However these losers have a bunch of ideas;

Asotoku:
B = Bite
Direction + B = Horn stab
Down + B = Cry
Up + B = fired out of a cannon
Final Smash = Eat Bees, Spit Bees

Disaster: Final Smash: "I AM A CRICECORN! NOT A HAMSTER DARN IT!"

Shiro:
1) mailbag 36 never existed. do not question further or you will be terminated.
2) any button = get fired from cannon

Hey!!! I hope Bagel is in this mailbag!! and well, the "Random People"...
Ok, thats not the point...
Theme:
What on earth is Kirby franchise? Its something french or something like that??
Well, hahahahahaha goodbye!
Joker Joke

RMD: Oh, that Bagel.... not around enough.

Asotoku: Random People? We are THE mailbag people. Bagel is in a retirement home shouting at his teeth.

Diddgery: If Bagel ever shows up again that would be pretty cool but also a bit awkward but I don't know what he thinks of the current mailbag.

The Kirby franchise is the series of video games released that are about Kirby okay?!

Disaster: Look up Franchising on Wikipedia you idort

Shiro: ...who's random?

Well, It's been a while. I have one question, and an answer for the theme. I'll get the theme out of the way first.

I don't know what a 'franchice' is, and I'm too lazy to look it up. But if you mean, "What do you think Kirby will be like in 2010?" Then I have an idea of what it would be like. That's about 3 years from now, so it's a safe bet he'll still be alive and kicking. In 2010, Kirby fans will start to overpopulate the globe... By 2015, everyone that doesn't like Kirby will be killed and eaten by the Kirby fans. And by 2020, Kirby will come down and somehow, lay an egg of his species, and it will be twins, and of the opposite gender. But because a large amount of americans are lacking in common sense, Kirby will bring the egg to Canada! Yay Canada! Oh, back to the topic. I've never played Retro Kirby games, so I wouldn't know if it would be alot of fun. If it's really fun, then yes. At least for the Kirby fans. (I'm happy that some people out there don't judge an entire game on the graphics.) And as for plot aspects being explained... Maybe it might turn out that Kirby and Meta Knight are related.

Now for my question.
Why is Meta Knight so HOT? (METAphoricaly speaking. Haha, geddit? It's a pun!)

Diddgery: I am going to kill myself

RMD: Suicide party.

Asotoku: Funny species, the human race. I think I'll join Diddgery in his suicide party.

Disaster: Holy crap is this really the last mail to be answered this time? I'd rather kill myself than try to answer it properly!

Shiro: .. . it's all over ;_;
