[the madman]

this looks so good.

too bad I sold my Wii three years ago.

 

[sixteen-bit]

I love Kirby! Will buy.

 

[lupinko]

boxart

lol Angry Kirby.

 

[Bulzeeb]

looks great, it almost makes me forgive Nintendo for not bringing Xenoblade over here

 

[Brazil]

lol Angry Kirby.

At this point, I'd be angry if Angry Kirby wasn't on the boxart.

 

[Boney]

I call dibs on Waddle Dee.

 

[Jockel]

She wasn't too in to Epic Yarn because she said it didn't "look like a Kirby game, it looks like another game with Kirby thrown in there."

Well that's probably because it is.

 

[Regulus Tera]

this looks so good.

too bad I sold my Wii three years ago.

Every fucking time.

 

[Mlatador]

this looks so good.

too bad I sold my Wii three years ago.

It seems it also plays very well! (Gamescom 2011 gameplay)

I like the fluidity and the great variety of attacks you can perform. So many option to have fun.

4 player mode is gonna be KILLER!

Here's Kirby's competition for October:

October

This is the kind of Kirby game my girlfriend has been waiting for. She wasn't too in to Epic Yarn because she said it didn't "look like a Kirby game, it looks like another game with Kirby thrown in there."

She has good eyes, since that is exactly what it is.

Looks like it will be coming out with at a good time, not much direct or even indirect competition.

 

[Boney]

Could we be seeing a worthy succesor to SS here?

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

I absolutely adored Epic Yarn.

But a return to traditional Kirby is welcome any time.

 

[Insaniac]

Epic Yarn wasn't as Kirby as it could've been, but god damn it brought us this:

This is the kind of Kirby game my girlfriend has been waiting for. She wasn't too in to Epic Yarn because she said it didn't "look like a Kirby game, it looks like another game with Kirby thrown in there."

Battlefield 3 doesn't stand a chance against the mighty power of Angry Kirby.

 

[Regulus Tera]

Could we be seeing a worthy succesor to SS here?

Woa let's not get crazy here. People say this with every new Kirby game and it never delivers on that promise.

 

[ScionOfTheRisingSun]

Hmmm... there is a sound effect in that trailer which eerily reminds me of one in Super R-Type. Can you guess which one.

 

[WillyFive]

this looks so good.

too bad I sold my Wii three years ago.

That's your problem. We're not going to feel sorry for you.

 

[Jaded Alyx]

Might just be the first Kirby game I buy.

 

[LOCK]

This looks amazing. I love kirby so much. (^.^)

 

[Boney]

Woa let's not get crazy here. People say this with every new Kirby game and it never delivers on that promise.

It's just been so long

And this has tons of abilities per power!

 

[zephervack]

I was sold at Indiana Jones Kirby, day 1.

 

[dcdobson]

Might just be the first Kirby game I buy.

Same..my expectations couldn't have been lower, but this actually looks pretty good. No online, I'm assuming?

 

[lupinko]

At this point, I'd be angry if Angry Kirby wasn't on the boxart.

Didn't Epic Yarn lack Angry Kirby?

 

[KeeSomething]

It looks just like every other Kirby game-- slow-paced and boring. I don't understand the appeal of these games, and I've tried by downloading nearly every Kirby game on the VC. Every time I think "I should have gone with Mario or Sonic or Donkey Kong..."

 

[Shiggy]

Kirby's Adventure Wii is a better name. Europe wins again.

 

[Bulzeeb]

Didn't Epic Yarn lack Angry Kirby?

angry kirby in epic yarn would feel a bit out of place

 

[CoffeeJanitor]

God I hope that the little attack cutscenes will be skippable. Those types of things get old fast.

 

[MYE]

You say that with every Wii game release.

lol

 

[Shiggy]

[GeekyDad]

Looks like a modern Kirby platformer without having sacrificed its...Kirbiness.

 

[Kerub]

Europe?

Nintendo's releaseing this the same day as Pokemon Rumble Blast. Its been sent to die!

Those bastards!

Anywayz this looks pretty good. I don't know if Iwanna buy it day one or wait for a price drop since I got to many other games coming out and the Kirby games are usually so easy, amd considering I'll probably beat it in less then 10 hours I just don't know if I wanna pay full price.

But its Kirby....KIRBY!!!

 

[MNC]

This is the kind of Kirby game my girlfriend has been waiting for. She wasn't too in to Epic Yarn because she said it didn't "look like a Kirby game, it looks like another game with Kirby thrown in there."

It was. It was supposed to be a different game, but kirby didn't have a game for some time so they put kirby in it.

My gf liked EY either way and she's gonna love this one.

 

[Seda]

Europe?

Still slated for December apparently.

 

[Kilrogg]

God I hope that the little attack cutscenes will be skippable. Those types of things get old fast.

Yeah, that's the main thing I don't like about the game.

Well, that and it's still a bit too slow for my tastes. It's also guaranteed to be way too easy but my expectations are low on that front.

 

[ciD_Vain]

that looks like a lot of fun!

 

[Boney]

It was. It was supposed to be a different game, but kirby didn't have a game for some time so they put kirby in it.

My gf liked EY either way and she's gonna love this one.

In the end it incorporated other Kirby elements in it's design though.

 

[Vanille]

Looks pretty bland compared to Mass Attack.

Oh well, I'll pick it up cheap sometime next year.

 

[AwShucks]

Just give me a 2nd Canvas Curse. That's all I've ever wanted

 

[.la1n]

Well someone had to bring back Kuribo's shoe if Mario doesn't want to.

 

[PowderedToast]

Why do all the awesome games come out when the system is on the decline? I don't get it.

kirby has a history of releasing at the end of console life cycles.

 

[sixteen-bit]

kirby has a history of releasing at the end of console life cycles.

Yeah, wasn't Kirby's Dreamland 3 the last North American SNES game to be published?

[DarkChronic]

Epic Yarn was a borefest.

YOU TAKE THAT BACK!

Can't wait for this.

 

[Bulzeeb]

I stand corrected, that looks angrily adorable

 

[Urban Scholar]

Whooping arse in pink? Why yes please

 

[ThatObviousUser]

For some reason this really feels like a Sakurai game. The air ship, Kirby's statue form being like his trophy in Smash Bros., etc. This has gotta be HAL, right?

 

[Seda]

Yeah, it's HAL.

 

[Sciz]

Woa let's not get crazy here. People say this with every new Kirby game and it never delivers on that promise.

This is, however, the first game since to get the ability system right again. That right there puts it ahead of the pack.
