Four years in the ~~rubbish heap~~ works and counting... This'd better be one ~~hell~~ HOLY [dukar] of a game.

I've heard that it used to be that Kirby games would be one of the last Nintendo games to show up on a console. Of course, that's not the case with the DS, but...

Hey WeeGee!
Watch the foul language!
This site is PG!
No Foul Language!
Think of alternatives!
"Heck" works just fine!
Please edit your post!

I'm sorry, but any foul language ticks me off!
other words such as crud or dang or crap is just fine!

Hey, me too!
He was always my favorite helper to play as as the 2P.

Turtlekid1 · « **Reply #17 on:** December 01, 2009, 07:32:31 AM »

I prefer Tac or Bonkers, myself (in Ultra, anyway, I've never played the original).

PaperLuigi · « **Reply #18 on:** December 01, 2009, 01:54:11 PM »

I like playing as Knuckle Joe. Also, Kirby Superstar Ultra is a really good game.

Weegee · « **Reply #19 on:** December 01, 2009, 03:23:29 PM »

I'm probably alone in citing the oft-overlooked Kirby and the Amazing Mirror as my favourite instalment. As for KSSU partners, I'm torn between the near-invincible Simirror, or Plasma Wisp.

PaperLuigi · « **Reply #20 on:** December 01, 2009, 03:28:46 PM »

You're not alone Weegee. Amazing Mirror, when played with four people, is just that. Amazing.

Turtlekid1 · « **Reply #21 on:** December 01, 2009, 03:36:14 PM »

Is that why I can't seem to enjoy it? Because it's best played with four people?

waddle_doo · « **Reply #22 on:** December 01, 2009, 04:05:53 PM »

It is best played with four people, but I wouldn't know.

ShadowBrain · « **Reply #23 on:** December 01, 2009, 07:59:32 PM »

Yeah, I never played it multiplayer, either. The Kirby games are usually pretty vanilla for me, so all I can say is the Metroidvania setup was a bizarre choice.

Bandwidth exceeded, mo'fo.

I suppose why KatAM struck my fancy was its relative difficulty. Kirby games are generally cakewalks destined for absolute completion within a matter of hours, so the sprawling worlds and well-concealed treasures was rather refreshing.

PaperLuigi · « **Reply #28 on:** December 01, 2009, 11:58:52 PM »

The Great Cave Offensive is also pretty difficult the first run through.

Turtlekid1 · « **Reply #29 on:** December 02, 2009, 07:13:41 AM »

I still have trouble getting that one chest in the garden in the room with the wind.

I had a hard time to! i think i used jet.

Toad · « **Reply #31 on:** December 02, 2009, 10:59:47 AM »

Jet power is your friend in that room. Did you know you can angle your flight up or down? Start a horizontal dive, the hold up or down to angle it. This has helped me get that treasure many a time. :)

Tv_Themes · « **Reply #32 on:** December 02, 2009, 09:35:19 PM »

Whenever I play the Great Cave Offensive, I just fly through the game not giving two rats rear sides for the "treasures."

You fail.

penguinwizard · « **Reply #34 on:** December 02, 2009, 11:32:29 PM »

I can't even get through the Great Cave Offensive (there was some room where I didn't know where to go next, but I forget where that is now. It was a tall vertical room however).

What's the point? All you get for collection a bunch of garbage is a "Congratulations" message (I'm talking about the non "Super-Star Ultra" version).

The point is to get everything, not to get something for getting everything. Your motivations are all wrong.

Otherwise it's just another Kirby game.

I'm sorry but I don't play video games for bragging rights. I play mainly for story. "Great Cave" has very little, "Milky Way" has tons.

You're doing something wrong if you're trying to play a Kirby game for story.

I hope for your sake you never get Squeak Squad, because you'd never complete it with that attitude. Seriously, the entire sense of uniqueness from that segment comes from the treasures. What's the point of even playing that part if you're not even going to try to collect all of them? I can't speak for the original, but the Ultra version of GCO has several neat shout-outs to other Nintendo franchises that make it worthwhile.

Chupperson Weird · « **Reply #41 on:** December 03, 2009, 11:27:26 AM »

Uh yeah, those are in the original, just so you know.

Tv_Themes · « **Reply #42 on:** December 03, 2009, 01:51:45 PM »

Ultra's CGO I did complete, because I wanted the extra games.

That's "Face Heel Turn."

My favorite game in Super Star [Ultra] is either Revenge of Meta Knight, Helper to Hero, or GCO. Meta Knightmare Ultra was fun but would have done better fleshed out and made into its own game.

CrossEyed7 · « **Reply #52 on:** December 04, 2009, 02:58:52 PM »

Heel Face Turn is when a bad guy turns good. Face Heel Turn is when a good guy turns bad. I'm not familiar enough with the plotline of Kirby to know which one's right.

PaperLuigi · « **Reply #53 on:** December 04, 2009, 03:06:59 PM »

CrossEyed's definitions are correct and are normally applied to professional wrestling. As for Marx, he did a Face Heel Turn:

"He originally appeared as a small jester, balancing on a multicolored ball who asks Kirby into helping him end a quarrel between the sun and moon. When Kirby listens to his plea and does as he says, he turns up just in time to initiate the final part of his devious plan, and reveals that he manipulated Kirby to gain power."

Sort of like Sirius in Bomberman.

But DynaBlade had a cliche story. It ruins crops, an evil act, just to feed its babies? It's like a flying version of Dedede!

Dedede's plots only look bad on the outside. By the end of each game (after Dream Land), it is found that Dedede had good intentions all along. Same thing happened with DynaBlade.

PaperLuigi · « **Reply #58 on:** December 05, 2009, 01:56:51 AM »

You have serious problems if you play Kirby games for their plot.
