Written and edited by Cohlman from @AandKGames What are these characters based off of: Starting off we have the iconic Goomba from Super Mario. These mushroom shaped enemies are based off the real life Shiitake Mushroom. Makes sense, though over in Japan, its name is Kuribō which means Chestnut. From one Mario enemy to another, we have the Boo ghosts. They were heavily inspired by the real-life wife of Nintendo designer Takashi Tezuka. His wife normally acted very quiet and shy but would also go into an angry outburst after getting tired of Tezuka’s working hours. So creator Shigeru Miyamoto turned that personality shift into a gameplay mechanic for Super Mario Bros 3, giving us Boo. Up next is Pikachu, canonically he’s a famous Electric-type mouse Pokémon. However, he was originally designed to be a squirrel. This is because Pikachu’s original character designer, Atsuko Nishida, was deeply obsessed with squirrels at the time of development. This is why several parts of Pikachu’s anatomy, such as his Tail & Cheek pouches, resemble that of squirrels. Next up is Kirby, who was simply just a simple circular blob drawn by series creator Massahiro Sakurai and meant to act as a quick placeholder while programming. However, the placeholder design fit the character enough to remain final. His name also became Kirby after American lawyer John Kirby successfully defended Nintendo in a 1984 copyright lawsuit brought by Universal Studios over Donkey Kong. And finally we have Squidward. Contrary to popular belief and his own name, Squidward is actually an Octopus given the round shaped head and becoming an actual octopus here and there. He just only has 6 tentacles to make him easier to animate, can’t blame the animators there.
