10 Video Game Easter Eggs That Went Too Far

8. The Naked Lady - Kirby's Dream Land 2

The Kirby series is so cutesy, even the baddies make you go gooey-eyed. (especially the Waddle Dees). When our Popstar-born hero is draped in menacing armour or cybernetics, he still looks adorable!

So, since the platforming series is obviously tailored for a younger demographic, you would never expect Kirby would contain raunchy content. But while playing Kirby's Dream Land 2, you might spot an inappropriate secret in the fifth level of Red Canyon.

As soon as you enter, you'll notice blocks to your left that resemble a face. If you jump down, you'll see another group of blocks, shaped like breasts. Below that, there's a single block that represents the bellybutton. Below that... well, you can tell where this is going.

Basically, the developers decided to insert the image of a naked lady in this level. Although you can't see the whole image in one go because the blocks are spread out, that doesn't make it any less inappropriate.

Naughty Easter eggs are nothing new, but it's tasteless to insert a crude image like this in a Nintendo property that's geared towards kids.
