I never understood why this was the worst received Kirby game. Everything I see is reviewers disappointed about it "not being as creative as Canvas Curse."

God forbid they make a new, normally structured Kirby game for the DS, it's always been one of my favorite classic style Kirby platformers.
>>
>>340539618
Because it was a mediocre game with no extras you could 100% the first time through in about 3-4 hours

cuz is not amazing mirror 2

Kirby's Dream Course, Kirby's Dream Land 3, Kirby Air Ride, Kirby's Return to Dream Land, and Kirby Triple Deluxe were not received as well as Kirby Squeak Squad.
>>
>>340540302
This was the issue I had with it. The abilites it introduces and the stuff you could do with them was fun, but it feels like there's just too little content to the game itself. You can easily 100% it in a day without even consulting a guide.

Having the most disappointing final boss in a Kirby game of all things kinda hurts a little too.

Not only are the extras really easy to find, the level design is just not good.

Adv > NiDL
Better visuals, better minigames, better physics, much bigger field of vision

SS > SSU
You've got co-op and a TV, and the new subgames in the remake are boring rehashes.

RtDL > Robobot
Neither are great imo, but at least RtDL looks and sounds totally beautiful and its fun to play with friends.

DL3 > DL2

Kirby 64 has aged like milk, but it still has a lot of good stuff going for it that barely puts it above the GBA and DS games.

The only handheld Kirby better than its console counterpart is Canvas Curse.

Epic Yarn is a great game full of fun stuff, it's just not a challenge by any stretch of the word. But neither are any of the Kumazaki games.

I like all the handhelds, the console games are just better. Kirby just works better on them.

>>340542934
I wasn't talking about Dark Matter, I was talking about this Dork Matter. Don't insult people.

>>340543051
Agreed, poor thing. He came right out of left field too, they didn't give him any set up at all like they did Nightmare, Dark Matter, Zero, and Zero-Two.

>>340543327
Probably so people don't start thinking he's related to Zero, and because he's a star not an 0.

>>340539618
game feels like an afterthought with some interesting ideas that are never expanded on.
uses the life bar system which I always hated.

the squeak squad are boring
final boss looks fucking dumb
only cool aspect of item combination are elemental abilities combined with sword, but I think there was only a few sword variants, I don't remember.
just a bland Kirby game.

Nah, besides being gorgeous DL3 has better gameplay mechanics, better levels, better enemies, better bosses, better atmosphere, and more friends. Helping a new character each level gives motivation beyond just completing the level or looking constantly for tucked away little collectables. Final boss is the best in the series imo. DL2 is great though.

There's a difference between lasting forever and lasting jack shit, but of course you can only talk in extremes like the average vermin.

Dude, you're the one talking in extremes. The subgames aren't really THAT short, I mean what did you expect? They can't make a full game out of each subgame when there are like 6 of them, plus extra minigame shit. I would rather a bunch of different games that add up to the normal length of a game than one really long game that stays the same throughout. Do you just hate variety or something?

I agree. I don't agree it's great, but it's nowhere bad too. The content was great, but it's little. The new copy abilities are good, with Ghost being the best, and the story is different. Also, combining Sword and Bomb with elements was really neat. The final boss was really disappointing, though.

I would give it a 7.

>>340547269
The graphics are quite clean in Super Star Ultra, but I prefer Super Star's. There's a lot more expression and personality there, the art style has more variety in tone, and everyone is really cute, but not exaggeratedly so. Also, the graphics for all the cutscenes look like complete garbage in Super Star Ultra, compared to Super Star.
SSU didn't introduce us to Dedede's other theme, Super Star Stacker did.

>>340549923
Why not throw them at you, then have its pieces attach to itself as you break off more pieces of the access ark when it takes damage? Breaking away the access ark and revealing the face was cool, it should have continued to the full body. And I'm pretty sure the exposed bit over Nova's left eye was there by design, since it contours with his eye and shooting star perfectly.

I'm sure when it comes to lore NOVA might be designed like that either because it's older than the Star Dream/Access Ark and it might not even be fully completed.
If you look at NOVA you begin to realize how cluttered it is and that there's parts of it just completely missing.

I think the Access Ark Soul form or whatever is what NOVA was SUPPOSED to look like or USED to look like.

>If you look at NOVA you begin to realize how cluttered it is
That's on purpose, it's supposed to look like like some mystical wish granting machine. Like all those random pieces help him function and gather magic from the universe somehow, and the gab left above his eye shows you a big gear within him, assuring that he's fully mechanical. It's a really great timeless design, Stardream is kind of a sterile, less creative rehashing of it. And that's not an insult, it works in the context of the game, because HWC is probably not on par with Nova's original creator, which may have been some sort of Hephaestus type god.
>there's parts of it just completely missing.
I don't think so. It assembles itself

>I think the Access Ark Soul form or whatever is what NOVA was SUPPOSED to look like or USED to look like.
Nah, Nova was probably built like that on purpose.

You got a source on that Sakurai part? I can only find Miyamoto complimenting the game here: http://www.glitterberri.com/developer-interviews/making-mr-gimmick/

>“After completing Mr. Gimmick, an acquaintance of Miyamoto’s was kind enough to mention to me that Miyamoto said Gimmick was a lot of fun. Mr. Miyamoto doesn’t seem to be the type to praise other people’s work, so he added that he thought Miyamoto regretted being forced to admit it. Considering I’d always wanted to make a game that outdid every other action game out there, including Mario, that made me really happy.”

According to Wikipedia they pretty much went through hell due to barely not go bankrupt in 1995 eventually just residing in Japan for a while just "developing and publishing role-playing video games, pachinko games and mahjong games, and mobile platform titles in partnership with other companies such as NTT DoCoMo and Yahoo!." They partnered with Nintendo & GaijinWorks to bring their older games back on the Wii Virtual Console & to release a remake of Blaster Master (Blaster Master: Overdrive) so I guess they still have their IPs at least.

Their English site is stuck in 2010 advertising their VC games still but in Japan last year they apparently started re-releasing their classic PC games to work on modern PCs.

So, Haltmann Works Company built NOVA, right?

I mean, that's all but confirmed. They obviously made NOVA in it's early days, which influenced Star Dream's design. This also means they built the Lor Starcutter, which could also mean the Metal General and HR-D3 were built to travel and get it back from whoever stole it. Which is why their Security Force looks like Metal General.

Well, then why do the Security Forces look exactly like the Metal General? And why does Star Dream look like NOVA despite it having been destroyed in Super Star / Ultra? It's obvious Haltmann tried to build Star Dream to grant his wish to see his daughter again, which implies prior knowledge of it.
They weren't "behind everything" obviously, but they've had to have a ton of influence since they had to have been around during the Dark Matter games in order to "clone" the Swordsman.

Of course it does. When you play the game, you have to suffer through Ultra shitty looking and sounding cutscenes. Tacking the originals on when you've already 100% completed the game is meaningless. And there's still the matter of Return of the King, Meta Knightmare Ultra, and the True Arena not having any sort of good looking SNES style cut scenes.

You have half-health, enemies are generally larger and every boss & mini-boss are upgraded as labeled by the "Ex" in their name. It's pretty much the same otherwise beyond being harder.

HWC workers discovered them at some point and tried to copy their designs for their own use. They have vastly inferior versions of all those things, they didn't make the originals. It's doubtful that a single one of their creations was invited/designed internally. They probably have scouts specialized in scouring the galaxy and finding incredible technology, which is how they have something resembling Pix and HR-E as well.

Plus, Egg Engines and Nova have nothing to do with what HWC does.

>but they've had to have a ton of influence since they had to have been around during the Dark Matter games in order to "clone" the Swordsman.
Doubtful. Perhaps they opened a random chest in some random location with a Dark Matter specimen inside. Dedede has several of them.
Remember, Dark Matter wasn't some short-lived event localized around Pop Star. It's likely they're older than life and have been all over the galaxy, like HWC.

HWC has not been involved in the Kirby lore at all until this entry. And that's a good thing.
