Weren't all Kirby endings kinda on an epic side, with drastic tone shifts to something cool or dark or something?

Kirby combines the Popstar's Star Rod and Planet Robobot's Star Rod. Then a voice comes out of the combined Star Rod telling Kirby that they are the creator of the universe. Kirby is then forced to race the ghostlike creators on a rainbowy racetrack with no walls. After that, it's revealed that the whole game was really just a training simulator Kirby was playing on the Star Cycle from Milky Way Wishes.

I'm not really sure where you were expecting this topic to go except spoiling the ending.
The music during the end sequence is so damn good.
oh I wanna see reactions to it or confirmation on how batshit it is for sure
but given the lowkey talk about the game, it's fun to find something unexpected to look forward to
Good stuff, hopefully they don't get in trouble for that, I know Nintendo has very strict rules on what the media is allowed to show of their games, usually restricted to the first two braindead worlds, but its footage like this that sells me on the game.

Of course, though why even start this thread then? Isn't it just asking for trouble?

This is making me so excited! I've been dying to play a game starring the pink puffball forever! Epic finale you say? I'M IN!
im being kinda facetious I doubt anyone cares that much
thread is cause at the same time I doubt anyone knew or expected this if not told
apparently it's way over the top than the others
Without spoiling much, just like in Triple Deluxe the ending isn't the ending ending.
Finishing
reveals more about the antagonists and the origin of another entity.
In short, Kirby has the deepest lore.
It's over the top, but I wouldn't say it trumps Sectonia just yet.

lol, so I guess while they might be under media/ review embargo for the western version they can show-off/ review the japanese version? That's weird.

Well, that whole segment looked better than the complete game of Star Fox 0...

Both, but only if you've been invested in what few plot threads the series already had.
Better idea:
Kirby of the Stars Vs. Giant God of Legend: Gigantis' Counterattack
Where the final boss is the Ideon, trying to destroy the universe.

The final boss battle of Triple Deluxe was fucking A and I really liked the Crystal Shards one as well. If only there wasn't so much to play already I would have definitely picked Robobot up.
YouTube relayed video thumbnails have already spoiled to me that
NOVA from Milky Way Wishes is involved in the end game. In RTTD it was mentioned that he was built by the people of Magalors home world so are they actually connecting game storylines now? I remember the amazing mirror was basically the whole cause of Triple Deluxe too.

They really
some other game with that one.

This game has a shitload of kirby lore in it. Don't know what made them decide to do it but it's amazing.
Basically full on spoilers:
It's not outright stated but it's heavily implied that DREAM OS, the final boss, is the original creator of NOVA and the very similar comet that forms during the ending.
While neither of them appear in the same form as they did in Super Star, the attacks that each of them summon are the same bits of junk that surround NOVA (the piano keys, windcock, compass, etc).
In the True Arena, the final boss is NOVA, and instead of the robomech armor destorying him you proceed to fight the heart of NOVA boss as an extra finale.

Basically they've been tying the world together starting in KSSU, and just kept at it with RTDL and 3D.

I don't really want to spoil it.
It is pretty close to the ending of Milky Way Galaxy in Super Star, at least in style.

Sweet. This makes me want to finish Triple Deluxe and play through this one. (I never finished because the game was so good to play, I didn't want it to end)
It's going to be hard to top the true final boss from Triple Deluxe for me. Triple Deluxe spoiler:
That fight was amazing.
You should really finish it (and the arenas). The final bosses are so good.
She's fed off countless hosts and now cannot remember her true form. A voice called out to help her, but it has since fallen silent. Before the night ends, she must be given her eternal beauty sleep.

Breh in Dreamland 2 you follow a monster made of and called Dark Matter and cut him to pieces with a sword made of rainbow shards.
That's epic as shit

Must...resist...spoilers.
But yeah, Kirby games typically have final bosses/endings that don't match up to the tone of the rest of the game.
Triple Deluxe in particularly I remember being very epic as well.

Yeah, that's basically a kirby staple, he's always going after some dark horror shit in the end with galactic stakes.

The first trailer they showed looked AMAZINGLY great. Like the best Kirby since Superstar with lots of love poured into it. And like the budget was really high compared to older kirbies.
Now hearing this doesnt surprise me. Maybe I buy it.

Come to think of it, I might be a chronic Kirby game non-finisher. I only remember beating Nightmare in Dreamland, yet I own almost every Kirby game...

Other than the robot suit the gameplay looks identical to Triple Deluxe, and I'm still trying to force my way through that game. I can only get through a couple of levels before I'm bored and have to put it down. I may just watch the ending spoiler video and pass on buying Robobot.

No longer canonical
If it's anything like Gundam Unicorns finale than it will be epic

Dark Matter does not get close to Zero's eye bursting out and shooting blood at you while it follows you around.
I enjoy my romps though the games, but the real meat is actually the boss battles. Everything up until you unlock the boss rush arenas are basically filler.
But I definitely don't blame you if you can't get to that point. The actual levels are just beat 'em up lite.
