Love it or hate it, there’s been a lot of buzz surrounding Fortnite as of late. Epic Games has been heavily advertising the new, more laid back event called ‘Party Royale’ where players can kick back and relax (and watch some short performances by famous DJ’s, in this instance). Nintendo’s loveable character Kirby makes a brief appearance at the beginning in one of the trailers on an in-game screen which you can view here. However, thanks to Go Nintendo, you can see that poor Kirby has been censored in the Xbox and PS4 versions of the same trailer below:
Would be gunny if we censor the next Microsoft smash character
I’m not into marketing or anything but that doesn’t sound like a good way to be advertise your video game characters Nintendo, if anything it pushes away potential buyers.
More likely it was censored due Nintendo’s strict copyright restrictions.
I doubt anyone is going to refuse to buy a Nintendo product because there’s a blurred out Kirby in Fortnite, that they probably wouldn’t even notice bin the first place
Yes, that’s why Nintendo’s versions of trailers show Playstation cross content in them when ever they occur 😑 seriously, this happens all the time.
Kirby what are you doing in Fortnite?
Next Kirby game is a 3d battle royale confirmed.
Before some idiots in the comment section blame Nintendo for this (as always). They obviously got the permission from Nintendo to do this, or else Kirby wouldn’t be in there in the first place. Assuming that Kirby doesn’t show up on other platforms it only makes sense to censor him as it would be false advertising. (And if he indeed does show up on other platforms that again means Nintendo said OK to that).
I see one idiot has already been faster than me.
Snake and Banjo-kazooie are on Snash Bros still correct?
That’s actually kind of hilarious.
Kirby is naked after all, except for some shoes. They should start censoring him in everything. Think about the children!
Quick! someone do Kirby doing the Fortnite default dance with Human feet, in triplicate!
We already on this mess. Who cares if Kirby is censored on Xbox or Playstation trailers. Nobody gives a shit. 🤣
