This is gordoappreciationblog, signing off. Even The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening featured Gordos as enemies! It seems to me that other games must have been envious of Gordo’s simple yet masterful craftsmanship and wanted it all for themselves. The reason being… I included it in the beginning of the post! And you readily accepted it as a Gordo! Clearly, Unibō’s name and art was made purely to distract us from the fact that it is clearly but a Gordo. Sure, this may not look like a Gordo, or even have the same name… but you may have noticed I haven’t included the sprite this time. And that’s saying something in a series with such weird and wonderful enemies!ĭebut: Super Mario Land 2: Six Golden Coins A familiar face who may be dangerous, but is nonetheless an absolute joy to encounter in the Kirby series. In Kirby 64, Kirby can even briefly transform into a Gordo-like form by combining the Bomb and Needle abilities! In Dream Land 3, a variety of Gordos with different eye and spike configurations are used by friendly characters during memory-based minigames. The Captain clearly suffers from a lack of the humility that is a trademark of the Gordo species. Kirby’s Dream Land 2 and 3 feature a midboss named Captain Stitch, a large Gordo who becomes vulnerable when it throws its spikes. Gordos fulfill the same role in every Kirby game, with a few notable roles. Also what’s with the name? Why is its name the Spanish word for “fat”? Well, that’s just one of the many intriguing secrets that Gordo is full of.

What’s Gordo thinking about? I don’t know. What eyes they are! So inquisitive and charming. A spiky ball with eyes that’s completely invincible.
