>Kirby thread got deleted for no reason
What the fuck? Everything was fine.
Get the fuck back in here, you borbs.
Lot of threads just got nuked. Someone's cranky today.
Probably because it was started by You Know Who.
Right, redumping the book...
Last cute fae before I head to bed.I think I was the one that got it pruned with my imgur link, gg.
>>322317997
Batamon's existence still fascinates me to this day.
I could understand it as a one off easter egg, but what made them put so many in the game and have an entire secret around them?
>>322318007
>>322317997
That's the thing though. Why not just delete the offensive posts while leaving the thread intact? Fucking retarded. It just causes more tension between anons and mods/janitors, and there's enough of that as is.
>>322317712
Did someone post porn or something? I know that one guy posted his shitty ribbon folder but not any in the actual thread. Anyways I art dump the stuff I saved.
>>322317712
/v/ seems more preoccupied with pointless platform shitflinging than video games.
>>322318094
>>322318104
Rumor has it the Batamon sprite was an early Kirby design that was scrapped then used as an easter egg, but some also speculate it was to hint at Kirby's true species since it was kind of out of the way. Honestly, your guess is as good as mine.
>>322318205
>>322318094
Hey what book is that, I'm sure you mentioned it last thread but I didn't catch it.
Also I asked this last thread but no one replied and maybe you know. I found a book for kirby's adventure that had scenes from the game in a nice clay style, do you know what I'm talking about?u
>>322318354
>>322318445
It's something that was released back a few years ago that's difficult to find in Nippon, let alone anywhere else that is basically a giant trivia book with lots of obscure and beta/alpha information on the games.
As for your own request, still drawing up nothing, though I still hope you find it, since I want in on it too!

Why do people dislike squeak squad?
>>322317712
I really enjoyed Kirby Squeak Squad
>>322319584
Fuck these mods
>>322319643
Probably because it adds nothing new and is a basically a level pack for Nightmare In Dreamland. I personally enjoyed it.
>>322319697
Holy fuck I found out I actually saved a picture of the kirby's adventure book, I thought I was imagining it. Anyone know anything on this book?
>>322319643
It's not that I dislike it. It merely has the misfortune to be the least good Kirby game, which is still a pretty decent game. Even so, you can 100% it in fucking no time, it doesn't have anything even remotely difficult like a True Arena or Extra mode. It's simply lacking, all there is to it.
>>322319847
>>322319910
>It merely has the misfortune to be the least good Kirby game
Why?

I have another picture too, such a shame a high quality version of this doesn't exist, at least to my knowledge.

Sorry, still nothing. You'll need a more dedicated Kirbster than me to find your missing book. Perhaps if you entered the title on Japan Google or something?

>>322320049
Because despite being fun, it does nothing noteworthy nor is there anything particularly special about it. Having his belly be an inventory is a good idea but they ditched it, copy ability mixing was pretty useless since the only actual mixed abilities are just elemental swords and bombs. Copy ability scrolls are a nice concept but Super Star-tier copy abilities are far superior anyways. The treasure hunting and chases were an okay gimmick, I guess. I get the feeling the game wanted to be something more but it just fails to wow in any aspect. At any rate it's still worth playing. Ninja ability letting you walk on water was the shit.
>>It felt more like amazing mirror to me.
Rude. Amazing Mirror was way cooler.
>>322320493
Can someone please explain this borb meme? Not even Google is helping.
>>322320250
I unfortunately can't tell the title of the book, I don't know a word of Japanese. I actually remember finding it in a /vr/ thread, I wished I remembered what was said on the book. Thanks for replying though, also does your book have a specific name, I'm kinda interesting in trying to hunt for one myself.

Even without him it's the best game. It's interesting that he wasn't in any of the dreamland or "dark matter/zero" games. I think it might be because sakurai wasn't in charge of those and instead shimomura.

Fucking love it. It's my favourite Kirby game and probably one of my top 5 games overall. I've never seen any flak for it so I dunno what you're talking about there. Whenever I pick up a Kirby game I expect it to be like amazing mirror and then get disappointed when it isn't. I do a 100% run every year. So glad it was an ambassador 3ds title
>>322323081

My dream Kirby game is one with 64-style element based abilities but Super Star-style controls, so each combination of abilities would have its own unique set of moves that Kirby could do.

These are the /mlp/ threads of /v/. You people are sad and it pisses me off that I'll never be allowed to discuss Kirby as an actual game.
It perpetually amazes me how a placeholder sprite has come so far.
He assimilates his food's skills, he gets animal friends, he gets hats, and he becomes a contestant in a pugilist contest with other better-designed characters.
And finally they give him the intelligence of a 4-year old child and he's still a charming little fucker.

It's not like there's been a new noteworthy game. Triple Deluxe was a somewhat more interesting rehash of the exceedingly mediocre RtDL and Rainbow Curse was not only a rehash of Canvas Curse but utterly borbed (blue-balled) the Dark Matter fans.
Besides, /v/ has a fetish for migraine-inducing difficulty, something that Kirby is generally not.

I'm sorry, what exactly do you want to discuss?
Kirby games are universally easy and cute.
No game has since reached Superstar Ultra (or DL3, if that's more your thing) in the game play department.
New games have less depth and meh level design but more powers and combos.
Really, unless you want to discuss the merits and pitfalls of Amazing Mirror, what is there to discuss?

Neither of these had particularly complex gameplay, especially DL3. I think Triple Deluxe has the best gameplay in the franchise because the bosses have so many forms and so many attacks.

Clearly my primary concern was the content. And the bosses are usually a challenge in Kirby, except in 64 where each boss has like two attacks in total.

Dreamland or Dreamland 2. Toss-up because the former only gets hard on Expert mode and the latter is only hard because of the final boss.

>>322327946
Triple Deluxe easily has some of the most shallow gameplay in the series. Needing to memorize different boss attacks doesn't make a game fantastic.
>Bosses are usually a challenge in Kirby
Literally which boss. With the exception of literally no one, there's no difficult boss in Kirby. There's a reason there's a boss rush mode in most games that kids have no trouble getting through.

>>322319643
At the time it was just a third "Kirby GBA" styled game, didn't have much that was new, and on top of that was exceptionally short, even for a Kirby game. The big new feature was just an inventory and the ability mixing was incredibly half-baked. It's not bad, but it was basically a filler game.

Kracko, Kracko Jr, Mr Shine and Mr Bright, Galacta Knight, Son-Goku, most endbosses where you fly around with a sword etc.

The bosses are really the only excellent part of K64, they're some of the tougher ones in the series due to massive health bar and multiple forms

I know you're exaggerating, but that's really not fair at all. Not every boss in K64 is Acro.

The giant robot, whispy, the fish, everything except that polygon mass was as simple in structure as the levels, which is an insult.
I'm of course basing this of Kirby standards, they're pretty average 2D platfoermer bosses. I mean, the minibosses in Kirby's Adventure had more depths to them.

If you want to criticize the boss fights in K64, it would be reasonable to say that they're painfully slow to make up for the fact that Kirby himself moves like molasses, and their availability to be hit is far too low, leading many encounters to consist mostly of waiting for the boss to make itself vulnerable (although most Kirby bosses are guilty of this; not every Kirby game can be Triple Deluxe). Saying they have a lack of attacks, especially compared to fucking KA bosses, is simply false.

No, the amazing mirror didn't always reflect bad things. It only got that way once Dark Mind showed up.

Yeah it did, she was just cut off. Look up the background sprites.

No, it didn't.
>>322330187
Fair enough, I consider two-four attacks to be in the same category. Like, the fire lion can pounce, claw, bite and charge, Buggzy can fly, charge and shit bugs, about the same level.
>>322330470
You fucking retard, stop replying about shit you know nothing about. Now I had to go dig up proof just to sate your idiocy. Asshole.
>>322330680
Calm down anon. I was just mistaken.
It's been years since I played the original and the camera (and most sprite sheets oddly) always cut her off.
S-so perfect.

The big difference between a miniboss in KA and a boss fight in 64 is that the bosses generally had some sort of impact on the arena, whether that was movement or the spawning of smaller minions. Ultimately, 64's a really, terribly slow game, and that by itself can be a big enough sticking point to ruin basically everything else for a lot of people. (I totally fucked up when I read Kirby's Adventure, for some reason my mind took me to DL instead. KA has pretty good minibosses, on the whole. I've seen way better, but for the time, very strong.)
Either way, I don't totally disagree with you since, in the end, I want the same thing. K3D had really exciting fights - I wanna' see the developers go even harder, but I feel like they've gotten themselves stuck in the zone of "what Kirby should be" and are too afraid to break out of that mold.
Y'all niggas too angry.
>>322331121
Yeah, DL's minibosses were basically hop back and forth, attack and nothing else.
I'm really hopeful for the future because while the bosses in RTDL weren't quite up to par with 3D, they were still pretty impressive. So the new director knows what to focus on in the franchise.

>>322331371
There was a huge leap in 3D that I feel was partially brought on by the fact that the game was, y'know, in 3D. I think that they felt that the best way to get good use out of the 3DS hardware was to have bosses that got in your face a lot, with wildly dynamic camera angles compared to the norm for Kirby games - I hope they realize just how good the result was, but I also hope they notice that Pyribbit was way too opportunistic compared to other fights, where the boss could be hit almost constantly as long as you were good enough.

I can't wait for Bayonetta to come out just so I can become pic related against people on FG

>>322331619
Pyribbit was the only boss I didn't like for just that reason. As for the whole "getting in your face" shtick I think it really only worked with the snake boss, since his body is constantly kept between layers. The witch had the best use but pretty poor execution since it's way to easy to see which objects are real or fake.
Honestly the best bosses to me are the ones with very little 3D effects, like Axe Dedede and all forms of Sectonia.

>Honestly the best bosses to me are the ones with very little 3D effects, like Axe Dedede and all forms of Sectonia.
Yeah, but even those fights still played with the camera a bit, rather than just constantly holding the camera at the exact same angle/position. Even when the effect is subtle, it makes a huge difference, and I think that just the idea that they wanted bosses match up to what the camera was doing played a huge part in making them all so active. I'm not saying the 3D effects made the fights good, I'm just saying the mentality that those effects brought encouraged the designers to make good choices with them.
And Flowery Woods was amazing to me by sheer fact that they somehow managed to surprise me with fucking Whispy Woods.
>>322332312
I think Dedede was the biggest surprise. I never really like him, at first I was like "daaw Dedede thinks he's the final boss again", but the instant the health bar ran out, holy fucking shit.
Despite all the hype, Masked Dedede was just Dedede in an electrified cage. With absolutely no build-up, Axe Dedede managed to be completely different and extremely awesome.
I wish they would make another game with dual copy abilities. As a kid, trying to find out what all the combos did and finding really good ones was magical
>>322332841
Hell no, it was way too tedious to get the power you wanted. Had to replay that forest level 20 times for the lightsaber.
I prefer the new games where all powers have different moves, so they're all fun to play.

I wasn't expecting for my dick to get that hard. And that was just the first of Triple Deluxe's lovely surprises.
>>322332740
Yeah, Axe Dedede definitely caught me off-guard.
Shit, now I gotta' go play Triple Deluxe again.
>>322332841
I think the reason they won't do it again is twofold:
A: It would severely increase development time the more abilities/combos there are.
B: They would have to put ability mixing in all future games which would really hamper creative freedom.
If they didn't put a lot of abilities in the game to manage combos and dev time, then it would feel sparse. If they put a lot of them, it would take forever to develop.
If they removed ability mixing from the next game after that, people would complain that it's gone again. If they kept it in every game after, you get back to point A and once again limit creative freedom.
You can't win.
>>322333174
People suck each other's cock over this, but it's really not that big a deal.
>>322333192
How many forms does the final boss have? As in unique movesets.
DDD
Axe DDD
(Dark DDD)
(Dark Metaknight)
Sectonia
Sectonia on the crystal
Sectonia OHOHOHO
Short minigame
Bulb pattern 1
Bulb pattern 2
Bulb pattern 3
Flower Sectonia
Hyper Sectonia
(Sectonia Soul)
(Sectonia Soul phase 2)
I count 10, 14 on repeat playthroughs.
>>322333198
But, what if they're doing that right now, and that's why there hasn't been a Kirby game recently?
>>322333401
Kirby and the Rainbow Curse just came out a year ago. I think you should lower your expectations.
>even more Kirby badges are on badge arcade now
Fuck. I swore to myself when this came to the west I wouldn't spend money on it. I wasn't counting on an assload of Kirby badges to exist.
