Nintendo Kids Space
The title of this article is official, but it comes from a non-English source. If an acceptable English name is found, then the article should be moved to the new title.
Nintendo Kids Space (ニンテンドーキッズスペース) is a division of Nintendo's official Japanese website. Primarily aimed at children, the website promotes Nintendo-published products through material such as printables, comics, and articles. Its American counterpart is Play Nintendo and its European counterpart is Nintendo Kids Club. The website was regularly updated with new content until January 13, 2017, when it was announced through a sitewide notice that further children-oriented content would instead be hosted by the Topics section of nintendo.co.jp;[1] however, the website presently remains open to visitors.
Choite-kun[edit]
Choite-kun (ちょいテくん[2]) are thumb-like characters that appear throughout the Nintendo Kids Space website. They host the "A little tech" series of articles (ちょいテク, officially romanized as Choitech[3]), where they convey information and tips on various video games published on Nintendo consoles. They often adopt appearances that reflect the game they talk about; for instance, in an article about Super Mario Maker, they dress up to look like Super Mario characters. One Choite-kun in particular, Afro-te-kun (アフロ・テくん[2], Afuro te-kun), is recommended as "the funkiest bro who gives you a little tech with a badass flow."[2]

"Answering questions!"[edit]

March 16, 2016 | Part 2 of the extra episode of Super Mario Maker Course Sakusei Kōza Mashiko to Yamamura, in which Yamamura revises the course Mary O. was assigned to build in the episode's first part. One of Yamamura's observations regards placing a key so it is obtainable after touching a Checkpoint Flag; otherwise, restarting the level from the flag may render any further Key Door unopenable. For this episode, Mary O. briefly assumes a disguised look, which takes Yamamura by surprise to such a degree that he spits the soybeans he was eating. Mary O. states that she disguised herself to evade the persistent attention of fans following the popularity of her Mystery Mushroom costume. |

November 20, 2015 | The fourth episode of Super Mario Maker Course Sakusei Kōza Mashiko to Yamamura. Yamamura is largely displeased with Mary O.'s Memorable Course assignment, criticizing its lack of cohesion to the point where he compares it to a "life without karaage". He does, however, praise some aspects of the course, such as the concept of Cloud Blocks being used to hide Boos. Yamamura rebuilds Mary O.'s course almost entirely, placing Boos more sensibly and removing a Yoshi that, he claims, served little function in a Boo-centric course due to his inability to eat them; he thus explains the importance of extensive planning and limiting oneself to their own rules, emphasizing "purpose, style, and functionality". For her next assignment, Mary O. is tasked with making a course that truly utilizes Yoshi's abilities. | [useful 19] |

Frustrated, Barbara takes Yamamura into a stranglehold, demanding him to use the voice talent of Yu Ayasaki (a character from Daigasso! Band Brothers P) for Mary O.'s soon-to-be-included Mystery Mushroom costume.
