I was impressed and a wee bit jealous last year when I posted about four year old George's Mario themed birthday party but these photos from Ethan's Mario/Video Game themed party have left me longing for the days when I could have a cool themed birthday party without people looking askance. An awesomely decorated cupcake table (above), Mario and Luigi papercraft favors, homemade Boo and Kirby pinatas, Mario and Luigi hats, a Yoshi Egg Hunt and a tastefully and detailed decorated back yard. If only cool stuff like that had been available when we were kids we might have been spared the horrors of party clowns. More »

Back in November we posted about a cute Super Mario Bros. scene created on the frosty tops of 28 cupcakes. Today, thanks to BoingBoing, I noticed that the cupcaker has made another game theme, this time showing off Pac Man. I showed these to Mike "GameCakes" Fahey and I haven't heard from him since. Consider his mind blown. More »

Things tend to get a little hairy on NPD sales data day, which, by the way, is not over yet. Media Create sales are due any minute now, so we'll see precisely how well Sony performed with its new 40GB edition of the PlayStation 3 and we expect comments from The Big 3 within the hour. Given all that, Super Mario Bros. cupcakes, specifically, would be a nice break right about now. Something short, sweet, pick up and eat, with that thick leathery frosting might cleanse the palette of bitter fanboy tears. More »

While I was looking over Bungie's most recent weekly update, I scrolled all the way to the bottom and found this awesome picture. A fan made these great Mr. Chief cupcakes and sent a photo to Bungie's Frankie who had this to say More »

If hell had a gateway, it would be that cupcake mouth. Shortly after reader Nathan and his girlfriend made this, they were sucked into a ring of the underworld Dante missed. Truly, truly nightmare inducing. Masochistic readers, check out the complete Flickr set. Yes, there are more of them. Brian Ashcraft More »

Ask the Kotaku Scouts, and ye shall receive. A reader whom I shall dub "Hamswaddle the Fierce" to protect his salty identity has written in to assure me that Introversion's swaggering is misplaced. To further protect Hamswaddle's precious alter ego, I have also obscured his voice with my handheld iPatois, which came bundled with a Buccaneer setting: More »

The improbably named Rakka Deer sent us a link to her great Flickr photoset featuring some enthusiastic and charming attempts at immortalizing classic game characters in cupcakes and pies. Not only she baked the chain of Centipede cupcakes above (or to the right, I guess... this new widescreen template is so damn unpredictable), but a Pac-Man cupcake, a Space Invaders apple pie and Tetris cookies.
