Origin of Kirby's Final Smash
Butmac | 10:59 AM on 03.31.2008 30 comments




I found this kind of interesting.

while playing Kirby Super Star I was fighting one of the mini-bosses, a cook. After I defeated him, I decided to see if I could inhale him and do the ol' power steal trick. Well, sure enough it worked and the power picture in the lower left part of the screen said "Cook."

I wondered if it was the same, and sure enough, it was. Kirby breaks out a big cooking pot, sticks on a chef hat, and all enemies are sucked into the pot. They then turn into food to replenish your health just like in Brawl.



I always wondered what the inspiration for the Final Smash was and now we know.

I knew it probably had something to do with one of his past games, but I never knew which one, how it got translated, etc... by the way, for anyone who wants to know the history behind smash bros. melee, this guy on youtube called "CrappyCaptureDevice" has been doing it for quite some time now, and he's pretty much finished the project, his videos are kind of interesting, check it out

Kudos to you for playing your classic games instead of merely nostalgicizing* about them.

I guessed it was from there, but I've never actually seen it in action.

not common knowledge. I just figured the little guy was really hungry!

Seeing as that chef was the first miniboss of the first episode of Kirby Superstar (Dynablade I believe) I sort of thought this was quite common gaming knowledge. I'm no Kirby fan by any stretch of the imagination and it's been at least 3-4 years since I last played Superstar.

Perhaps I should go play it again, I remember it being pretty fun.

I didn't know this was a big mystery. I guess it's solved now.

Anyone who hasn't played Kirby Super Star needs to play it immediately. Shame on you for not having already done so.

I like the Kirby games, but I totally didn't know where it came from. Then again, I missed out on this one.

No offense dude, but reading your comments is like playing Rainbow Six: Vegas 2.

Yeah, this is nowhere near common knowledge.

Among huge Nintendo/Kirby fans, maybe, but Brawl has mass appeal and I doubt many people know it.

I've had to explain who King Dedede was, so I doubt everyone knows every power Kirby has ever been able to use in every game ever.

Well, I knew this, but only because I've played Kirby Super Star. But hey, EVERYONE SHOULD HAVE PLAYED KIRBY SUPER STAR.

So, I guess it should be common knowledge. :P

Are we pointing out stuff that was yanked straight from Kirby Super Star now? Has anyone mentioned All Star Mode and Boss Battles yet?

As far as Sakurai's concerned, there's only one way to make a million-seller. Curious?

1) Copy
2) Paste
3) ???
4) Profit!
