I honestly thought he was named after the vacuum company because he sucks up stuff like a vacuum cleaner does.

He’d be a ghost white character when he was named. Kirby’s first appearance was on the OG monochrome GameBoy, and he was white on the box art. He picked up his pink & red color scheme in his second game, on the NES.

    No, he was always meant to be pink and is depicted as such on the Japanese box art. The North American box art got it wrong.

    Okay but why does White Kirby look like that one Mario character? (I think his name is Boo/Teresa?)

    Okay, I'm not even into videogames like that (used to play Super Mario Bros 2 for the 3DS when I was 11 or so, but not anymore), but oh my stars this is awesome, I friggen love this!!

    Did you do this yourself?
