I just want that 4-player Kirby game that was shown for GameCube, then shifted to Wii, then forgotten entirely. Fuck you, Nintendo.

I'm willing to bet that actually literally became Super Smash Bros Brawl's atrocious Adventure Mode.I just want that 4-player Kirby game that was shown for GameCube, then shifted to Wii, then forgotten entirely. Fuck you, Nintendo.

Re: Wii Suck
Has simultaneous multiplayer been explicitly dropped? I don't see that mentioned in that article.
Also that sword move looks obnoxiously over-animated.

Re: Wii Suck
That was rather quick! The game about rope only just came out a few months ago, I thought, as well as that DK game. And I think they have a new DS game?

Re: Wii Suck
Now that's more like it. I never picked up Kirby Epic Yarn because it didn't strike me as a Kirby game whatsoever despite the Kirby name (that and I disliked feel-good's earlier Wario Land game). I just hope that using abilities doesn't cause the game to load up an attack like the giant fire dragon every single time you use it like indicated in the trailer.
Re: Wii Suck
New trailer and screens. It's 4-player co-op!
Kirby Mass Attack (DS) trailer. You get to play as a bunch of Kirbys in a Katamari-ish way.

Re: Wii Suck
Did they do Wario Land Shake It? God, that game was just so bland and oversimplified. I thought Wario Land 1 for the GameBoy had more depth and fun than that game. Everything about that game involved using those damnable speed-boosters to solve a puzzle. It felt like a damn Dimps Sonic game.(that and I disliked feel-good's earlier Wario Land game)
Both new Kirbys look great, which is a nice change of pace since I thought Amazing Mirror, Squeek Squad, and Yarn Adventure were terrible.
Re: Wii Suck
Wario Land 1 was fucking awesome though.
Those new Kirby games look adorable. The Mass Attack one had me practically clutching my chest.

Re: Wii Suck
Yes they did Wario Land Shake It. I played it for a couple of hours and realized it was the same levels with different backdrops, along with the "hurry up" end of level gimmick stolen from Wario Land 4. And with almost none of the fun power-ups from Wario Land 2, or the great platform gameplay from the original Wario Land. I sold it barely a week after playing it.Zeta wrote:Did they do Wario Land Shake It? God, that game was just so bland and oversimplified.

Re: Wii Suck
I found Wario Shake to be really enjoyable. There's no excuse for "the first several levels are really boring" or "it is a watered down version of something else" (stripping away so much from WL4's moveset sucks) but that doesn't change the fact that I played the heck out of it, and it was one of my favorite games for 2008 or whenever it came out.

Re: Wii Suck
I played up to the beginning of the fourth world before I stopped, if that defends my opinion on it any better.
Re: Wii Suck
I actually thought there was a lot of replay value. Sure, it wasn't quite the same as any of the preceding games, but the levels were very tightly designed and the extra challenges were a nice addition.
Re: Wii Suck
The extra challenge and replay value were all the same puzzle - hit as many zippers as possible without stopping to bash open a wall to get a treasure. It's like that's the only gameplay mechanic they had.
Re: Wii Suck
So the demo of Mass Attack is on the Nintendo Channel. It's... interesting.
The demo starts off with one Kirby, who you move around with a cursor. You can make more Kirbies by eating fruit, which can be gained from killing baddies or solving puzzles. Fighting is a joke - you simply tap the enemy you feel like murdering, and your Kirbies hop on it and start punching it. Beating one of the enemies entirely depends on how many Kirbies you have, if you haven't enough, you'll bounce right off. If one of your puffballs get hit, they turn blue. If they get hit again, they turn into a ghost and fly away, but you can get it back by having another Kirby drag it back down, denying it the afterlife it deserves.
You break blocks and solve puzzles by flinging your Kirby into them. Once again, this entirely depends on how many of the pink buggers you have. You can amass up to ten of them, which gives you a nifty bonus at the end of the demo.
Overall, it's intriguing, but too easy and the controls are a bit wonky.

Re: Wii Suck
Return to Dreamland Trailer, and details from NP. Looks like a cross of Super Star and Kirby 64, as well as some elements from the "cancelled" GCN title. I'll definitely be picking this up.
Re: Wii Suck
Well, I really hope we don't get another Kirby adventure 3...

Kirby's Adventure was awesome. What are you talking about?Arcade wrote:Well, I really hope we don't get another Kirby adventure 3...
Return to Dreamdland looks fantastic. It'll be the first time since Kirby 64 I buy a new Kirby game.
I'm also glad the new super abilities seem to have a fixed usage, like the Mike and Crash powers from Kirby's Adventure.
Re: Wii Suck
I think he was referring to Kirby's Dream Land 3. There was never a second or third Adventure.
Re: Wii Suck
It would be super neat if they put in the animal friends.

Re: Wii Suck
Kirby's Dream Land 3 was great and I'd love to see the animal friends return, too.
Re: Wii Suck
Another vote for the animal friends from me.

: D- Kirby is the only one that can copy abilities and use Super Abilities
- Waddle Dee can attack from a distance and fly
- King Dedede uses his hammer and is slower than the other characters
- no puzzles that require another person to access
- hop on the back of co-op players to let them carry you
- characters can stack on-top of each other
- Meta Knight can fly through areas with other characters on his back
- attack as a team by holding A and releasing at the same time
- the player at the bottom of the stack determines the attack
- players who grab more health than they need can share that extra health by hugging each other
- jump in/out co-op that allows you to change your character whenever you want
- player 1 is always pink Kirby
- camera stays centered on Kirby
- if teammates get left off screen, they are immediately put back by Kirby's side
- can play as 4 Kirbys, but cannot play as multiples of other characters
