Nintendo just announced it (after "leaking it" earlier this morning) via Twitter:

#Kirby Fighters Deluxe & Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe will arrive on Nintendo #eShop for #3DS on 13/02!

 

[JordanKZ]

Oh yeah, those are totally the games I wanted a release date for in Europe.

Not Rainbow Curse. Nope. Not that at all.

 

[BGBW]

So these are just the minigames from Triple Deluxe extracted and sold seperately.

Reminds me of Paper Plane and "Birds and Beans" (it's Pyoro you silly billies!) from the early DSi days.

 

[Aostia]

are these any good?

 

[DownGrader]

They totally missed the opportunity with Kirby Fighters Deluxe - it was a perfect game to spend time before the release of Smash 4 3DS,

By the way, does downloadable version have Download Play or connectivity with Kirby Triple Deluxe?

My memory might be failing me, but didn't these have additional content?

 

[Why would you do that?]

They're also enhanced. Kirby Fighters, for instance, has more stages, more fighters, and I'm pretty sure 3DS Download Play support.

Huh, I forgot about them. I was highly anticipating Fighters back in the day because Smash wasn't out yet and it could be a nice distraction until its release, but now...

I hope that we also get the Mii Plaza puzzle.

Off the top of my head in Fighters if you had Streetpass data from Triple Deluxe you would unlock a couple of exclusive stages.

OK, so not as bad as I thought.

That's... actually pretty cool, but I meant local play.

 

[Storm Kyleis]

Dedede's Drum Dash is pretty fun.

Oops, my bad. Considering it includes new modes and items I don't think it will be compatible with the regular Tripe Deluxe minigame.

 

[Memory]

I liked Kirby fighters on Deluxe so i might pick this up if the price is right. Didnt like ddd's game though.

 

[L~A]

They're not just mini-games from Kirby Triple Deluxe, they also got quite a lot of additional content (including some stuff you can only get with a save data from KTD).

And yeah, Kirby Fighters got download play.

 

[Lernaean]

Yeah, but you know, Rainbow Curse release date maybe?
I have no idea why the fuck we ain't getting it along with the other regions. It's not like it needs localization or anything.

 

[Spades]

Anyone purchased either of these yet? I'm curious to know if either is any good!

They're not all that different to the versions included in Triple Deluxe, so if you've played that game you'll know what to expect.

Kirby Fighters is surprisingly fun and the the eShop version adds quite a bit of content--boss fights, extra modes, new stages, unlockable skins for each copy power, etc. Multiplayer is still local-only, unfortunately, and the two new copy powers are only unlocked if you have Triple Deluxe save data on your system.

Dedede Drum Dash is pretty shallow and doesn't have a lot of content; the eShop version adds some stages (plus harder remixes of every stage) and some new gimmicks but I still don't think it's very interesting. There are some aesthetic unlocks but they're almost all tied to having Triple Deluxe save data on your system.

Thanks! I haven't played Triple Deluxe, which is why I was curious.
