Nah, he created both. Interesting Kirby facts:

- Originally Kirby was just a placeholder to allow them to make the game before coming up with a character. They liked Kirby, it stuck.

- Miyamoto wanted Kirby to be yellow (the first Kirby game was on the Gameboy, no one knew what colour he was meant to be), Sakurai insisted on pink.

- Probably named after John Kirby, a lawyer who represented Nintendo in a major lawsuit against Atari way back. Though as there are Kirby vacuum cleaners, which is of course very similar to Kirby's abilities, I'm not sure which one's true.

OH! I didn't know that. Ya learn something new everyday :)

Ok so it seems like Yoshi, Pac Pix, Meteos and Another Code are great or at least good. What is there worth picking up after spring? The only other DS games I've heard of note are Castlevania and Advance Wars, which I believe are coming out in the fall? What about summer?
