Perfect for developing the observational skills of younger players, Top Trumps Match is suitable for all the family, and the Kirby-pink game grid folds up to form a carry case as well, meaning you can pack it safely away before travelling via Warp Star on your next adventure. That seems relatively harmless on its own — despite the fact that it's a card game featuring Kirby, a pretty huge Nintendo property, that was being sold on the Japanese marketplace BOOTH — but when we tell you there's a micro bikini-clad Chef Kawasaki, you might raise an eyebrow. As highlighted by Eurogamer, there's a little more to this story than Nintendo not taking kindly to people unofficially using its IP to make money. I never heard of many if any cease and desists from HAL labs themselves other than this and some music take downs.

Included with the game are 16 cards: Five ones, three twos, three threes, two fours, two fives, and one "lose your turn. That popularity right off the bat may well be what alerted their existence to HAL as shortly after that, the cards' creators revealed they are no longer allowed to sell them.Be the first to tap the card on the bottom screen that matches the card appearing on the top screen. It is worth mentioning that this fanmade work was created by the KWSK Karuta group, who had been successfully selling the cards for a few days until the case reached HAL Laboratory since the sale and distribution were stopped for them.

The rather risqué imagery aside, Nintendo and its partner studios are known to be extremely protective of their properties and likely would have cracked down on the use of the Kirby IP, whether Chef Kawasaki was in or out of a micro bikini.
