Kirby Valderrama

Wilmer Valderrama. Who is he and why is his last name so fun to say?

It's hot outside and I couldn't be more thrilled to stay indoors and gain weight.

So why not pass the time with a little more online nostalgia?

Instead of firing up that worthless $500 Playstation 3, why not try something for free? Check out http://nintendo8.com/ where there are TONS of original Nintendo consule games available to play with a simple Java plug in. Favorites include all Super Mario Bros. games (1, 2, and 3), Castlevania (1 and 2 only), and countless others.

I prayed and prayed that the site had my favorite Nintendo game of all time...and it did! Kirby's Adventure is the cutest platform game, pre-Wii (a new space-time-continuum). In the game, you play a little pink puff ball named Kirby who violently eats other living creatures, including big bosses, and then utilizes their special powers on other living creatures in Dreamland.

Eat your heart out, Rogue.

You can blow flames, blow ice, blow me, fight with swords, hit with hammers, explode out of control (after blowing me), sing badly (love it), and even turn into an alien flying saucer with lasers (that one is totally true)!

The game is so ahead of its time and sadly does not appear in later incarnations on other Nintendo systems. Though, I hear the Wii will have a Kirby game soon...

But until then, you can pass the time playing some of your old faves on this groovy, retro site. But don't expect to have the ability to save your games or do any of those other convenient enhancements found on later gaming systems (such as hand jobs from Wilmer Valderrama...which I hear come with a game pack on the new PS3. Can't wait!).

Seriously. Valderrama. Weirdoramma. DramaRamma. M. Night Shamalama.

Ramalama.

Pony.
