Nintendo made plenty of announcements at its latest Direct about games old and new.
Yet for some corners of the internet, the eyebrow-raising Mouthful Mode in Kirby and the Forgotten Land really stood out as ripe for innuendo.
The mode lets Kirby inhale some impressively sized objects, from a car to a cone, a vending machine, and more.

For some, the announcement of more DLC for Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was the biggest surprise. But isn’t this the real crossover we wanted from the Direct?

Brains immediately began whirring at the possibilities. If Kirby can suck up a car, what’s next? Memes ensue.
