    This time, they're straying away from that Epic Yarn gimmick that some people were apparently disappointed by. I haven't played Epic Yarn yet, so I wouldn't really know what it's really like. This new Kirby game, however, strays away from the elements used in Epic Yarn, and is going back to the good old Kirby that we know and love.

    The trailer alone got me very excited as it's very reminiscent to some of my favorite Kirby titles. Such as Kirby's Adventure and Kirby Super Star. Although I do wonder if this Kirby game is the same Kirby title that has been first announced for the Gamecube.

        Oh man, this looks totally tits.

        And the position of the health bar is pretty indicative that it's gonna be four-player. :D

          Yay, so glad I didn't get Epic Yarn, it just didn't cut it for a Kirby game. Not like we are used to anyways. I did like the cowboy Kirby as well and the big sword. This one I'd certainly consider getting.

            You know I'm going to pick this title up for my Kirby collection. :D
            Looks like a pretty good Kirby game, I never saw Kirby wield a sword that big in my life.

                Haven't played KEY, even though I do kinda want to. But this seems like the continuation of the original Kirby project Nintendo had in mind. Glad to see Kirby back in his roots though.

                  I also got excited when I saw that. I hope that it's the Kirby game that we were promised five years ago. :D

                    So far that looks to be the case. Seems like the Kirby game I've been waiting for since Dreamland 3.

                      As if Kirby's Epic Yarn wasn't already epic enough.

                        Awesome. I love the Kirby games but Epic Yarn was like playing a lullaby, it just made me want to take a cozy nap but this game looks like the Kirby game we have been waiting for.

                          I decided to take a pass on Kirby's Epic Yarn, and I'm glad that I did! The newer Kirby game for the Wii looks so much better! Can't wait to play it! :D

                            I tried out Epic Yarn recently, and I thought it was really fun. I didn't find anything wrong with it. It seems to me that people only hated this game because it's different from the others. If that's the case, then perhaps something like the Paper Mario series should never have been made.

                                I think the general complaint with KEY is that it's offensively easy. For a company that wrote the book on 'nintendo-hard' that doesn't really make a lot of sense. It absolutely oozes style though, and I'm sure to give it a try when the price goes down. For now I'm just more excited about this new Kirby game though.

                                  This new Kirby game is actually the canceled GameCube one.

                                    I disagree with anyone who says that there's no challenge to Kirby's Epic Yarn just because you can't die. In fact, it's actually one of the most challenging Kirby games I've ever played. Now, if you're just going to go from point "A" to point "B" and get to the end boss, then yes it is very easy. But doing just that alone takes away all the fun. The MAIN course of the game is to collect a big portion of the beads and three items of each level to get a gold medal. The items you collect is basically used for Dom Wolle's apartment building where you got to upgrade his apartment building to a higher level.

                                    Also, before I sent this game back to Gamefly, I went through the ultimate challenge that is Beadrix's Sweet Park's minigame, where you got to distroy three bag creatures using either your yarn whip or your heavy weight in order to get all of the beads you need. I swear to god, that level took me 20 minutes to complete as they kept running away and disappearing before I could get to them. Now, if that wasn't challenging, then I don't know what is.

                                    In short, I think anybody who says the game sucks just because you can't die is REALLY missing out on what the game is really about. Even so, I still find it a very fun game to play through.

                                    That's just my thoughts.
