Kirby is a videogame character (now he protagonizes an animated series too) created by the actual president of Nintendo when he wasn't the president. He though that it could be an arriscated marketing strategy because the first videogame was going to introduce a new concept in the platform videogame type; Mario was in that time the king, and a pink ball (first in black and white) that copy his enemies powers by absorbing them and floating like a ballon was a really weird idea... But it was good! Kirby gained a lot of popularity, and now he's known by all the platform videogame players. The cutest platform hero is played worldwide, by people of all ages.
Opinion
Kirby is my favourite videogame character! His games can be played in a lot of different ways, because each level is like a labyrinth (in most of the games), and, if you're not good playing, you can also pass floating. That's one of the reasons that Kirby is played by all type of players.
He's very cute and pink, so most of people who didn't play a kirby's videogame thinks those videogames are for girls, but it's not true. Maybe the history it's a little childlike, but that isn't the reason for criticize it; Kirby have to thank his popularity to his peculiar habilities.
Other thing is the games' BSO. Here you can listen two really known theme songs of the games:
The music of the first stage in "Nightmare in Dreamland", for Game Boy Advance. What a sweet memories.
Meta Knight's (Kirby's enemy) theme. That song appears most of the times when this character appears.
