Do I Want To Go As Princess Peach For Halloween?
8:30PM AJ Glasser | I resisted going as a video game character for Halloween because cosplayers’ homemade duds invariably put mine to shame. But now video game costumes are commercial — so I should get my Peach on. More »
A Most Bold Approach to Oregon Trail
11:00AM Owen Good | I usually try to wrap up Saturdays with some laughs so, here’s this and two other funny pics I found through the week. On their own, maybe not worth a post but together, hey, it’s the weekend, so here’s a funnies page for you to spread on the living room floor. Remember, if you’re a Madden gamer and want in on the KFC (Kotaku Football Conference), that announcement will be at 1 pm MDT (3 pm Eastern, noon Pacific) This one apparently came off of Facebook. I friended the guy who created/posted it, I’ll let you know if anything comes of that. Also, someone run out and register www.muahahahahahahahahaha.com. More »
But the Bride is in Another Castle!
1:00AM Owen Good | Newlyweds Frank and Paige Hackett are gamers, he on his PS3 and SNES (yep), she on her DS and PSP. They’re also, in Frank’s words, a “short Italian guy and much taller blonde girl”. So it would follow that that thing, above, would be the cake at their wedding last weekend. Frank provided us the source pictures and we’ll have an architectural discussion on the jump. More »
The … eh … Babes of Gaming
9:00AM Owen Good | The always droll Games Radar has come up with a list of the “mediocre” women of gaming — if by mediocre, you mean “somewhat sensibly proportioned and no gratuitous jiggle”. In other words, “girlfriend material”, a “compliment” that has gotten millions of insensitive, fumble-tongued 20-something males backhanded by their angry SOs. So, sorry, no bursting-at-the-cups Ivy from SCIV in this one, just good ol’ 2D renders, and maybe some cabinet art. The list features Marian from Double Dragon (seriously, they punched her in the stomach at the beginning of Double Dragon. And no one batted an eye!) Carmen Sandiego and Meryl Silverburgh from MGS. But leading off is Pauline from Donkey Kong, who’s dressed like she belongs in a polygamist cult. Pauline was sort of the George Lazenby of the Mario franchise. Made one big appearance and that was it, although she did get some TV work out of it. I hope Pauline’s still cashing royalty checks, spending them on cheap whiskey and ranting about Princess Peach.

Smash Bros. Dojo: Stop Sending Us Panties
12:20AM Mike Fahey | Masahiro Sakurai is not amused! Apparently someone has been fostering an unnatural fascination with getting a peek at Princess Peach and Zelda’s panties, sending them in to the Dojo on a regular enough basis that Sakurai needed a disclaimer at the bottom of the picture page.

This Is It, No More Princess Peach Upskirts After This
12:00AM Brian Ashcraft | It’s still Kotaku After Dark, right? Good. Got this very riqué post right under the wire, whew. Last week, we posted the Princess Peach freeze frame to end all Peach freeze frames. Now, we’ve got the exciting follow up: hi-res screenshots! This should enforce the idea that Nintendo doesn’t only put great attention to details — even in lady’s underoo lace. Hit the jump for the embarrassing images. More »
