I just noticed that you have Twilight Princess listed only under Wii, not Gamecube. You might want to add Twilight Princess to the Gamecube game list.

I wasn't actually going to bring this up, since it's one of those annoying nitpicky things... But what the hell? I've been watching a lot of the Hoshi no Kirby anime lately (I can just about stand it in Japanese, without the crazy accents) and noticed that in it the phrase "Hoshi no Kirby" is used to refer formally to Kirby himself, meaning that "Kirby of the Stars" is probably a more accurate translation that "Kirby's Star". Of course, it's not actually an error, since both are correct. This just seemed the best place to bring it up.  |

That's fair. NinDB's translation was a guess on my part Unfortunately, until the anime this was never really explained. Sure, he lives on Popstar - but that wasn't named or depicted for a while, and from what we could gather, Kirby lived with other Dream Landers. The anime seemed to change things again, so now he fell to Popstar on a Warp Star (so would be an "alien") and lives with Cappies. But I don't think they've ever been shown here, and I have never downloaded them to watch them... so I don't know if they ever went into more detail or anything. |

I'm pretty sure they've never been shown here, but I got the first DVD boxed set from America some time ago... it was awful. Since then they started fansubbing episodes over at Rainbow Resort, but I've only seen as far as part one of the Grand Prix thing... They haven't gone into much more detail from what I've seen, but it appears that Kirby was created by Nightmare in the anime.

First update in almost three months, and I've already spotted an error. (Ha! Beat YoungLink to it!)
The date for the update is listed as 30th January 2006. Common error this time of year.

Dammit! That's actually the first time I've done that this year. I've been so careful when signing forms and cheques. Well played, sir, well played. |

The graphic leading to 3PS #12 reads "Trauma Centre" instead of "Center". I know that's the correct British spelling of the word, but I'm pretty sure the game title isn't spelled that way even over here. |

Bah, I swear I changed that!! Well, I'm not changing it now You'll just have to put up with my quirky British spelling for now. |

I was just scrolling through the Kazumi Totaka's Song Guide and happened to notice a little typo on the Luigi's Mansion entry... although I've (sadly) never played the game, I'm pretty it's Poltergust, not Po ultergust |

Hmm... I think what we have here is no typo!!
I believe it's another English/American spelling issue. Damn you Yanks and your deviant ways!

He's right... it should be Poltergust. It'd be different if it was just a generic word, but it's the name of something, and it's used over here as well as in America. So calling it the Poultergust isn't really much different that calling Marth "Mars".

I do agree with you. Just wanted to point out that it wasn't a typo but an instinctive response On that point - the fact Marth was translated for years as "Mars" is really bizarre. During the end credits for the original Fire Emblem, all of the characters names are shown in English - and it says "Marth". I'm guessing the fans didn't get that far in the game |

Ahh, fair enough. Speaking of Fire Emblem, I realised the other day that I know next to nothing about it. I looked for fan translations of it some time ago, but none seemed to be complete. Time for another look, methinks... |

Sorry for the double post, but I noticed something on the StarFox Command page...
The F-Zero reference ending is actually the ninth, and final ending, not the second. Also, the race is called the G-Zero Grand Prix, seemingly a reference to Zero Racers, the cancelled VB game.
