Hero-of-Time Posted September 13, 2022 Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) Yet another Kirby game for Switch. Edited September 13, 2022 by Hero-of-Time
Glen-i Posted September 13, 2022 Posted September 13, 2022 Still sticking with the N64 style Dedede, huh? Still weirds me out. A new ability is cool though. More then I'd expect. Anyway, this is a great Kirby game, anyone who skipped it should remedy that.
killthenet Posted September 13, 2022 Posted September 13, 2022 Was Return to Dreamland a brand new game for the Wii or was it a remake of an earlier entry?

killthenet Posted September 13, 2022 Posted September 13, 2022 Sweet, will definitely pick this up when it comes out

That trailer makes me laugh though. "And now, everyone can play as Kirby!" That's not a new feature, that was in the original game!
Ashley Posted September 13, 2022 Posted September 13, 2022 Not watched (I'm currently traveling back from Spain) but I do hope the trailer promoted the fact you heal your friends by kissing. It's a key feature.
Dcubed Posted September 13, 2022 Posted September 13, 2022 YES!!! The best Kirby game gets sweet treatment! GIMME! Cant wait to hear what they do with C.R.O.W.N.E.D

MindFreak Posted February 24, 2023 Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) I got the game yesterday and am about halfway through world 2. It's actually quite fun and fast. Not hard but is a bit more difficult than I expected at first. My son tried it this morning. He had the Magalor helping system on which prevents you from falling down and doubles your health. With that, he was able to complete some levels completely on his own. He's 5. He found it really fun. Edited February 24, 2023 by MindFreak 1
S.C.G Posted February 26, 2023 Posted February 26, 2023 Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe Launch Trailer Now up on the main page. - - - - - I bought the physical version of this, I'm not sure how many other people will be buying this remake, though being that it seems to be doing rather well in the reviews, I'd imagine quite a few, and it would seem to be a title which is well-suited to online multiplayer, so perhaps another potential game for an N-E game night? I know @Dcubed , @Glen-i and @Ugh first aid will quite possibly be buying and playing it, but you already have three players locally, and I'd have thought you'd get a lot of mileage out of the same copy of the game in that case. But anyway, if there's enough of us with copies of the game, and enough interest, then perhaps this could be another online game to try out.

I'm not entirely sure the main game has an online feature. Just a few of the minigames.

I naturally thought a game like this would be a perfect fit. Oh well, maybe we'll play some of the minigames as an after-game then. So soon, we'll have Kibry: Nightmare in Dreamland on the GBA NSO EP service, which will presumably have online multiplayer for the whole (originally local multiplayer) game, yet no online multiplayer for this latest remake... I mean, the game seemed perfect for drop-in, drop-out multiplayer, then if anyone disconnects, the game just goes back to Single Player with CPU for whoever disconnects, and the CPU would take over from whoever gets disconnected, with the potential for anyone else to just drop in and claim their place again. That's how I thought it would work... oh well, I'm still looking forward to the game, and I'm sure it's great in local multiplayer, but a missed opportunity for a game like this. Yeah... I just checked, it looks like any 'online multiplayer' functionality isn't real-time, it just takes stats from others on your friends list, and other similar functionality.

MindFreak Posted February 26, 2023 Posted February 26, 2023 When you first start the game, it kind of aggressively wants you to start an online subscription and it makes it seem that if you don't, you won't be able to play the game at all - selecting cancel then just tells you that you can't see friends' high-scores etc. and starts the game. That wasn't so user-friendly. Other than that, it's a good game. Nothing great but it's fun to play for an hour or two, and do that three or four times and you are finished... I'm about halfway through with about 3 hours on the clock. Haven't touched the multiplayer-games yet, though. 1
