Nintendo tapped out of 3D conversions really quickly. Sadly, I don't see them effectively deciding to double the amount of classic game conversions they've done in one swoop.

I actually think it looks like the current Kirby line Kirby amiibo.
You can see a pink thing on top of a yellow thing.

Looking forward to it.
If they release another compilation disc, I hope it's handled better than the Kirby 20th anniversary Wii mess.

Is this gonna end with a "tune into the upcoming Switch presentation for more Kirby news"? Hopefully anyway.
What if they just hired M2 to do it?
Kirby's not usually there for console debuts, but it would be nice.
My rampant speculation is that it's another batch of transcended minigames from Planet Robobot, like Triple Deluxe before it, only this time with amiibo compatibility.

Hey a series not called Mario or Zelda getting an anniversary doodad, how nice.
(yeah I remember Kirby got his dream collection before)
In a world where Coo and Nago already exist he can get to the back of that line.

I only just realised that the I was capitalised. I've been reading it as "Push Dustin" for...years, I guess?
Fuck them too. ChuChu dating game.

Looking at the blurred picture again, I think it's official artwork for the 25th Anniversary Celebration. Looks like the Fountain of Dreams with a bunch of characters surrounding it.
Anyway we'll know in a few hours. Seeing how Nintendo hasn't announced it or retweeted the broadcast announcement on their official account, I'm almost 100% sure this won't be a game announcement. I'm sure it would be in their best interest to hype something like that on their own channels. Then again, we're talking about Nintendo.

Full HD remake of Kirby Super Star for Switch.
It'll be music-related

Yoshi's Wolly World and says hi.
After Zelda (and getting rejected to make a game for StarFox), Koei's Omega Force team moves on to make Kirby Musou.
Shenanigans involving an OP puffball and his friends wrecking havoc and mowing down multitudes of enemies (with light platforming) sounds right up Kirby's alley. And we'd FINALLY get a fully 3D action Kirby game out of the deal.

No it doesn't. Yoshi's Wooly World isn't a 3D Classics release.
I thought they were referring to just regular Nintendo ports. My apologies.

They did a collection release for the 20th anniversary so I doubt they are gonna do that again. Wonder what they'll do.
Miitomo items, pop-up restaurants in Japan again, and maybe, here's hoping, a 3DS port of Rainbow Curse >_>

I just want them to release the Kirby Cafe Soundtrack.
That's all I want.

I'm just dying to see what a Kirby platformer in 3D would be like! I have so many ideas of what it could be but Nintendo is allergic to 3D platformers for some reason.
Doubt we'll get a new game announced but I'm hyped regardless!

If we lived in a perfect world where game quality = game sales, then Kirby would be a Triple A franchise. Few other franchises are anywhere near as consistent.

I would play this in a heartbeat. This or a game from Platinum.
Koei's Omega Force team, Team Ninja, Platinum...
I just want someone to finally give Kirby the full 3D action title he's way past due for, with Hal being able to oversee it all so that it still is very much a Kirby game.

Haha, I thought about including Omega Force but stopped myself. For a Warriors game, the different "characters" could pull from Kirby's cast of allies and enemies, use each copy ability as a separate "character," or some combination of both.
Anyway, it sounds like we're on the same page. You hear that, Nintendo? That's two guaranteed sold copies!
*silently lowers expectations and accepts that it'll never happen*

So it turns out it wasn't a broadcast, but a series of tweet announcements. And the very first one was a concert announcement for next year in Japan! YEEEEEESSSS PLEASE COME ABROAD (or at the very least, a soundtrack release!) Nintendo Insider has some more details here.
Also featured were a 25th anniversary watch and the just-released Planet Robobot soundtrack. Also feast your eyes on some delicious artwork.
If anyone with some Japanese skills could translate more, it'd be appreciated! My meager skills, though growing, aren't enough to cover it all.

They should announce the Kirby Cafe being permanent instead of being limited time only.

So this concert is the announcement? Nice.
