Nintendo has started removing player-made bikini designs featuring Chef Kawasaki from the Kirby Air Riders marketplace. This trend, which began as a meme in Japan in 2020, allowed players to showcase their creativity in the game’s My Machines mode. With the bikini designs being taken down, prices surged as players rushed to grab them.
The first bikini design was pulled quickly, but another version with devil wings popped up and became popular. A new design featuring Chef Kawasaki with cooking pots is also gaining traction. While Nintendo focuses on these bikini designs, other submissions in the marketplace remain unaffected. What do you think about Nintendo's decision?
