Planet Robobot's probably the best of the Modern Kirby trilogy. Return to Dream Land was a great comeback for fans wanting a traditional home console Kirby game ever since Crystal Shards. Co-Op was fun addition. The Super Abilities were fun, but felt like limited cutscenes. Triple Deluxe was a step-up from RTDL in terms of level designs, music, visuals, and the great use of puzzle solving for the Hypernova ability, but also felt limited. Planet Robobot takes it even further, outshining both RTDL and TD. An actual storyline, the mechanized setting adds in a lot of unique levels that even surpass TD, the Robobot Armor is a great balance between power and puzzle-solving, and is a truly great "gimmick" that even surpasses the Super and Hypernova ability combined. And not to mention that the bosses and the final boss are really fun to fight. While the extra modes are short, but sweet, I believe Planet Robobot is a great addition to the amazing 3DS library.
I disagree with the argument of the "actual storyline" because it's basically Triple Deluxe's story with Robots, hell even the intro cutscene proves it.
I, the Nintendo fan True, but you *do* kinda get a difference of the story up to the boss fight in World 3 towards the final boss. There's a huge difference between TD's and PR's story if you actually look hard enough.
I, the Nintendo fan Plus, the cutscenes in PR ran on thr same engine that RTDL and TD had, so that's to be expected. But it's the presentation that made the similarities end. In RTDL, Kirby and co found an alien from another world crash landing into Pop Star, who lost the major parts of ship that scattered across the planet. They agreed to find all the parts to visit Magolor's home world in return. Then towards the end, he tricked Kirby and the others just to grab the source of umlimited power. In TD, Kirby's house and King Dedede's castle got entangled by a giant stalk overnight. Kirby entered his castle to find that Dedede was being kidnapped by Taranza. Towards the end, the reason Taranza kidnapped Dedede was because he thought Dedede was the hero of Pop Star, which he was clearly mistaken. In this game, Pop Star's been invaded by Haltmann Works Company. Both King Dedede and Meta Knight tried to defend the planet, but both ended up being blasted. Which lead to Kirby waking up, and seeing that his home land has been mechanized, and decideds to find and destroy the source. I won't spoil much, but the towards the end, the story is surprisingly darker than what Kirby games are usually known for.
That's...kind of true actually now that I think about it. There's never really a Kirby game that fans truly hate. Hell even Epic Yarn, despite the game playing nothing like a Kirby game, is pretty well respected in the fanbase while other big Nintendo franchises like Mario, Zelda & Pokemon, have certain games that fans truly hate. For instance a large number of Mario fans hates the NSMB games, half of the Zelda fanbase despise Skyward Sword, & a couple of Pokemon fans out there have a sour taste against Generation 4.
Meta Knight has two screen nukes in this game. Galaxia Darkness (the one in the video) does not clear the whole screen. The other one, called Meta-Knights call (they finally appear again after Super Star Ultra) clears the whole screen.
The ending of this game is unlike any of the other kirby endings, I'm serious it left my jaw wide open. LISTEN TO ME, this is the best 3ds game made up to date. Seriously the graphics and story make it one of the highest polished and perfected 3ds games EVER. Buy it, if you dont have money, sell your soul for it, I promise it's worth it
If I recall, this isn't the first time the Meta Knight mode has let you use special abilities. I think the first time it happened was... Kirby Super Star Ultra for the DS?
I'd say my favorite part of Planet Robobot (besides the return of *_him_* at the end of Meta Knightmare Returns) is the fact that _we actually have in-level enemies that aren't generic Waddle Dees._ Seriously, the Waddle Dees are cute, but seeing them tricked out with all this robot gear doesn't just make them look awesome, but also takes away from that certain feel they have that makes me not want to bash them around.
Have you ever given the original Kirby's Dreamland a go on the GB? I wasn't really into Kirby for a long while either but that game, while short, was pretty hardcore (some tricks tossed in near the end of normal but Hard mode was great fun).
Skeith804 I have not. But I have played enough Kirby games to know that it just isn't my cup of tea. Of course I can't wright it off without playing it, I'm just predicting that I would see it as just "decent". But you never know.
I played THE HELL out of Kirby's Dream Land 3 and Kirby Super Star as a kid. I grew out of the series upon adulthood because I prefer a challenge within the primary gameplay, however I understand it's appeal to adults as I recently replayed Super Star with a friend and we had a lot of fun trying to 100% The Great Cave Offensive. I wouldn't buy a Kirby game these days, but I still find the series to be a pinnacle of game design for its purpose. If only for the sake of what it represents to the casual market _(namely, that they deserve quality),_ I do hope the series does not run itself into a monotonous rut as the 2D LoZ and the 2D Mario series have.
Let us all give Derrick a round of applause for another fantastic review! Even when you are sick, you still provide some of the best reviews on UA-cam!
7:49 Holly Hell it's the Great Diamond Authority! That's it, show's over. The resistance is canceled, if the Gems really want this planet then they'll either gut it or destroy it and it's hopeless to fight them. Just run and find somebody who can quarantine the star system.
...Do you really think the Homeworld could stand a chance against the likes of Kirby? No offense to the show (it's great but its fanbase can border on insufferable or rather sadistic at times), but the power level on display there is minimal compared to what the Kirby series showcases from a game to game basis...
Rodin Claus We've only ever seen fusions of 4 or 5 gems. Home-world is said to have "tons" of soldiers which means a lot considering the only part of their body with consistent mass is their gem stones which have very little mass. They also have the incredible tactical advantage of their soldiers not requiring sleep, food, heat, air or pressure and can reform after being defeated Also Lapis was able to use hydro-kinesis to shape an entire ocean into a pillar whilst also controlling 4 powerful water-clones.
Angel Samael I fail to see how that would save them if they're devoured by Kirby. Take out their projections, consume their physical gems, and replicate their inherent powers. Rinse and repeat until the Diamond's are gone or wisely decide to turn tail, and THEN they face the possibility of Meta Knight or Kirby himself hunting them down further. I'm not QUITE as up to date (I know the major plot that's happened so far) but unless Steven Universe has gotten into elements of warping space-time, or dealt with stuff akin to Zero and Dark Matter, or ANYTHING with the Clockwork Stars or Galacta Knight, I still say Kirby is on a higher threshold of power.
Rodin Claus The gems have technology capable of teleportation and interstellar travel which implies space-time warping. They we able to re-shape most of the earth by moving most of Africa over to South America and made a giant hole in Russia. They planned to entirely hollow the planet out. The strength of the Gems is that every grunt enemy would be the equivalent of a mini-boss. Also keep in mind that Kirby can only have one power at a time.
Derreck should actualy do ALL the reviews on GameXplain. I feel like he is never influenced by personal taste or common oppinion and instead focuses on what the game wants to be and how it is ment to be enjoyed. Great review! Derreck for president!
*SPOILERS* did anyone else tear up when the robobot sacrificed itself for kirby and cried? that was the saddest thing I've ever seen apart from when i look in the mirror
Adeline on the left arm of the Bot and Sailor Dee on the right! They're stickers, right? Either way, I love how they got those guys in another game somehow! :D
Thank you for this Review Derrick! I am so excited for this game! And props to you for wanting to narrate this review, even when ill. It means a lot, because you love this game. Thank you, again!!
I received this game from my brother as a belated Christmas gift on Friday January 4th, and I love this game. It's personally my favorite Kirby game in the series.
ha. i just got my hands on a copy of SSU to hold me till i can grab this. 2 days till release in north america. still need to wait till end of the month
Draculooloo Not really, I say that because there has been a trend of 'reinventing the wheel' with recent Nintendo games. They try to compete with early classics, but only feel passable.
"NOTE: Derrick is suffering from a cold and is still recovering his voice, but he really wanted to narrate the review himself." man that's dedication right there, get well soon Derrick. i didn't really need this review to convince myself to buy this game when it comes out cause i was already fully interested in the game (MegaKirby X, nuff said), that and i enjoyed Triple Deluxe (1st Kirby game i've ever beaten, not 100% mind you but whatever, lol).
No, he said "...it has supplanted Triple Deluxe..." Supplant means to supersede and replace. I heard it wrong the first time too and had to go back to check.
I agree with a lot of that, though one problem I had was that the levels were pretty short and super easy. I beat story mode in less than 24 hours of gameplay, and about 24 hours real time of getting the game. Also on most of the levels, I got all of the code cubes first try, so I never had to do a lot of backtracking
my next purchase...cant wait till end of the month! plan to 100% triple deluxe. but got side-tracked with superstar ultra, and squeak squad though. :->
So I have never played a kirby game, but I would really love to get into it. Should I start with this or triple deluxe? I would prefer to play the one closer to classic kirby gameplay first, but planet robopot is getting insane praise, so I'm not sure which one I should play first.
Honestly I would choose Triple deluxe (3Ds) and/or Return to dreamland (Wii/Wii U) to get hooked to classic Kirby! Did you know that in world 1 of robobot shows the same giant tree as in Return to dreamland!
Let's be honest, ever Kirby game is good. I don't know a single bad Kirby game. This game is definitely a must buy for me(heck I already have it pre ordered along with the amiibos)
+Yoda Soda 06 Kirby air ride was amazing. I still play it to this day. The game is soooooo much fun. I was so glad when they added a city tour like mode in smash bros(too bad it isn't as good)
I like the game, and I absolutely love the Robot Armour.... but I liked Triple Deluxe better. I liked the bright organic feel of TD better than PRs mechanization, that although looking cool, also gets a little stale for me in places. I liked collecting keychains more than stickers, and I like the extra modes like Dedede's Drum Dash better. But as Derrick says, all a matter of preference.
I finally buckled down and beat The True Arena and I have to say is the Hardest Kirby boss rush that I have played. I get Star Allies in two days, I hope it is good.
I was a fan of kirby from young and started off watching the show on the cw11 on saturday mornings. I then got kirby super star ultra and fell in love. With my main reason of getting a 3ds afterwards for pokemon and a hope of a 3ds kirby game..my dreams were answered. Triple Deluxe was amazing and even though it was fairly easy, I enjoyed the new mechanics and the modes post game. I am yet to finish true arena in triple deluxe 😂 but hearing planet robobot is out just excited me like when triple deluxe released. I'll be getting it in june and can't wait to beat it. Question is...does that team mode support online? Anyway nice review, sorry for rambling..kirby is too much hype for me
If you haven't finished the game yet (which you probably have) I'm just gonna say the final boss will be a surprise for you. One of the bonus bosses are absolute surprises.
Re-uploaded to fix the dead air during the original. Sorry about that everyone!
Came back for completion, just to watch that clip. Very fast turnaround on that fix, well done!
That's ok. I really love it when people fix their videos.
Sup daddy
I hate when editors randomly don't render clips. I had an entire video not render once.
Turns out there are quick render modes that are buggy and you are better disabling them unless you are rerending after a small change
Sorry that you are sick. Get well soon. jessegart.blogspot.com/
Kirby's mech suit beating those enemies reminds me of my dad beating me.
You should play this game so you can be just like your dad.
Was he pink and round?
and in a mech suit?
Jesus lol
Seam
Man, HUGE shoutout to Derrick for recording this while sick, we love you dude :)
Best of the best
He really has dedication working on the Pokemon analysis for 10 hours
I know right?
Thanks Derrick! I think I will love this even more than Triple Deluxe as well.
It sounds amazing!
I agree with you, someone who take a big deal in their video desired so praises.
same here
Too be fair, there IS a fair bit of water in this game, so there is actual logic for a bad IGN review.
LOL
IGN: Here at IGN, we present you, our horrible sequel review that started the popular meme 7.8/10 , Kirby Planet Robobot!
Funny that you should mention that.
m.ign.com/articles/2016/05/27/kirby-planet-robobot-review
Pit ピット At least they had the balls to not pull out a 7.8/10.
I, the Nintendo fan No, I think they might be saving that for Sun & Moon. XD
Wow this review was really convincing. I ro-bought this game already.
I am proud of you for making that pun
That's some Andre level pun right there.
The most metal pun of all time.
Alright, that was pretty good.
uuuuuuuuugh...alright, i'll give you that one.
Planet Robobot's probably the best of the Modern Kirby trilogy.
Return to Dream Land was a great comeback for fans wanting a traditional home console Kirby game ever since Crystal Shards. Co-Op was fun addition. The Super Abilities were fun, but felt like limited cutscenes.

Derrick, you feeling alright? Rest up your voice, man!
Great review though. I was already planning to get this game, but now i'm drooling over it.
He's been sick this past week, but he's been pushing through to get the review done
Kirby - The only Nintendo series that doesn't have an objectively bad game
HAL should co-produce some other Nintendo games sometime, then we wouldn't get another Amiibo Festival or Ultra Smash :P
But what about Punch Out, Golden Sun, Xeno, and Donkey Kong though?
Actually objectively bad games don't exist
***** That's not true.
That's...kind of true actually now that I think about it. There's never really a Kirby game that fans truly hate. Hell even Epic Yarn, despite the game playing nothing like a Kirby game, is pretty well respected in the fanbase while other big Nintendo franchises like Mario, Zelda & Pokemon, have certain games that fans truly hate.

Huh, looks like one of Meta Knight's screen clearing attacks is his Final Smash 7:41
Yup! Seems to have replaced the screen-clearing Mach Tornado from Super Star Ultra...
it is, one of the moves on the bottom screen they showed was called "galaxia darkness", which is his final smash.
that's because it is....
Meta Knight has two screen nukes in this game. Galaxia Darkness (the one in the video) does not clear the whole screen. The other one, called Meta-Knights call (they finally appear again after Super Star Ultra) clears the whole screen.
The ending of this game is unlike any of the other kirby endings, I'm serious it left my jaw wide open. LISTEN TO ME, this is the best 3ds game made up to date. Seriously the graphics and story make it one of the highest polished and perfected 3ds games EVER. Buy it, if you dont have money, sell your soul for it, I promise it's worth it
What if I don't have a soul to sell 🤔
Kirby is Gurren Laguann confirmed
@Neil N just homebrew ur console
If I recall, this isn't the first time the Meta Knight mode has let you use special abilities. I think the first time it happened was... Kirby Super Star Ultra for the DS?
Derrick's "sick voice" actually makes him sound pretty badass :D
I'd say my favorite part of Planet Robobot (besides the return of *_him_* at the end of Meta Knightmare Returns) is the fact that _we actually have in-level enemies that aren't generic Waddle Dees._ Seriously, the Waddle Dees are cute, but seeing them tricked out with all this robot gear doesn't just make them look awesome, but also takes away from that certain feel they have that makes me not want to bash them around.
He Who Says Truths it's not the same nova
Wish we could get a Kirby game like this on Switch
It’s out! And it’s a 3D platformer! 😍😍😍
I've never been a fan of the Kirby franchise and this won't be the game to change my mind. However, I'm happy for all you Kirby fans.
thank you for not being rude to people who enjoy the franchise, most people on the internet won't let people have opinions
damn right I am and that's what matters to me
Have you ever given the original Kirby's Dreamland a go on the GB? I wasn't really into Kirby for a long while either but that game, while short, was pretty hardcore (some tricks tossed in near the end of normal but Hard mode was great fun).

IGN is gonna give this a shitty score for some stupid reason. I'm pumped for this game
IGN has been dishing out low-scored clickbait reviews since 2005
Heck, IGN gave triple deluxe a lower rating then Return to Dreamland. WHY???
+Dr. RobloxLOL123 cod will get 10/10 gr8 b8
IGN: 6.9/10 - "Too much metal" or "Too easy"
They gave it an 8.
Feel better, Derrick! That was a solid review. Can't wait for this game!
Nintendo just decided to make the best Kirby game 3 times in a row. Return to dreamland, topped by triple deluxe, which was topped by this.
Let us all give Derrick a round of applause for another fantastic review! Even when you are sick, you still provide some of the best reviews on UA-cam!
I don't know why anyone is watching this (myself included). No offense to GameXplain but we all know this going to be an epic game.
+Nioah Darn it! Looks like you win the internet...again...
Is it worth getting this in 2024-2025? We've played through the Kirby games on Switch.
I am particularly waiting to see IGN's review. Watch them give it a 5/10 and say "no one older than 8 should pick this up".
Plot twist: they actually gave it an 8 !
7:49 Holly Hell it's the Great Diamond Authority!
That's it, show's over. The resistance is canceled, if the Gems really want this planet then they'll either gut it or destroy it and it's hopeless to fight them. Just run and find somebody who can quarantine the star system.
...Do you really think the Homeworld could stand a chance against the likes of Kirby? No offense to the show (it's great but its fanbase can border on insufferable or rather sadistic at times), but the power level on display there is minimal compared to what the Kirby series showcases from a game to game basis...

They also have the incredible tactical advantage of their soldiers not requiring sleep, food, heat, air or pressure and can reform after being defeated
Also Lapis was able to use hydro-kinesis to shape an entire ocean into a pillar whilst also controlling 4 powerful water-clones.
+Angel Samael (angel of death)
It is sad to say, but I'd be more worried about the Great Diamond Authority than for Kirby.
Angel Samael
I fail to see how that would save them if they're devoured by Kirby. Take out their projections, consume their physical gems, and replicate their inherent powers. Rinse and repeat until the Diamond's are gone or wisely decide to turn tail, and THEN they face the possibility of Meta Knight or Kirby himself hunting them down further.
I'm not QUITE as up to date (I know the major plot that's happened so far) but unless Steven Universe has gotten into elements of warping space-time, or dealt with stuff akin to Zero and Dark Matter, or ANYTHING with the Clockwork Stars or Galacta Knight, I still say Kirby is on a higher threshold of power.
Rodin Claus The gems have technology capable of teleportation and interstellar travel which implies space-time warping.
They we able to re-shape most of the earth by moving most of Africa over to South America and made a giant hole in Russia. They planned to entirely hollow the planet out.
The strength of the Gems is that every grunt enemy would be the equivalent of a mini-boss.
Also keep in mind that Kirby can only have one power at a time.
So Meta Knight's Final Smash is cannon.
Thats nothing watch what they did with the Kirby amiibo, its Smash Bros Kirby
Except Smash Bros as an ability was in Amazing Mirror first.
it's interesting how smash has influenced the main series kirby games. first the airdodge, and now this
+Le Chris Also vise versa, SSBB's story mode was heavily influenced by Kirby.
8:47
Loud Locomotive?
(5-2 stage theme, the one with the steel train)
Derreck should actualy do ALL the reviews on GameXplain. I feel like he is never influenced by personal taste or common oppinion and instead focuses on what the game wants to be and how it is ment to be enjoyed. Great review! Derreck for president!
I'm really glad to hear Kirby's still got it. thanks for the great review, and for powering through your sickness just to deliver.
Thanks for fixing it Derrick!
You had me at, "Kirby". :D
As always, phenomenal review Derrik!
Good to hear your voice is doing a little better!
*SPOILERS*
did anyone else tear up when the robobot sacrificed itself for kirby and cried? that was the saddest thing I've ever seen apart from when i look in the mirror
I did
Derrick made the video even though he was sick.
Derrick is the real MVP.
Weird, i cannot find a IGN review on this game
Would like to see this in Nintendo switch..
Which song in the game is in this video?
Adeline on the left arm of the Bot and Sailor Dee on the right! They're stickers, right? Either way, I love how they got those guys in another game somehow! :D
Thank you for this Review Derrick! I am so excited for this game! And props to you for wanting to narrate this review, even when ill. It means a lot, because you love this game. Thank you, again!!
I found it annoying that in the opening cutscene and the final boss, the ship had 4 legs but in the rest of the game, it has 5
Do you have to use the D Pad or can you use the circle thing?
The robot suits function like the animal friends by having an alternate version of each ability.
Why is Meta Knight's wing missing in the thumbnail?
Do you need the meta knight amiibo to play as him?
Hey Derek, are you feeling under the weather? Your voice sounds a bit rough.
He is! It says in the discription
That profile picture is horrifying.
now can we just get another goddamn kirby air ride
am i the only one that notices the sharks are actually mechanized acros from i believe was kirby dreamland 3
Thank you for not spoiling anything! I literally can not wait until this game is released on, June 20th? I think.
This game looks fun! I remember playing Kirby 64 back in the day and LOVED it, this game looks like it has the potential to be fun as that. I'm sold
Is there online for this game? I doubt it because there hasn't been online for any other kirby games.
No playable King Dedede? :(
I'll definitely try to get this and Triple Deluxe
ESP Kirby seems like a total reference to Ness, and I love it xD
Do you still plan on showing off the True Arena?
7:52 Holy crap! You're controlling that robot with a Game Boy! That's freaking awesome!
Alright, which should I get. I can't decide, Planet Robobot, or Triple Deluxe?
This is on sale at target for 25 bucks with free shipping. I just ordered!
I received this game from my brother as a belated Christmas gift on Friday January 4th, and I love this game. It's personally my favorite Kirby game in the series.
Man, Derrick, your voice has improved A LOT.
This is easily one of my favorites in the series! Up there with Superstar / Superstar Ultra, Triple Deluxe, and Return to Dreamland!
modern Kirby keeps getting better. its like they have a formula that they keep expanding upon
It's like the only franchise that doesn't have a bad game, even squeak squad was enjoyable.
The game's going to be a must buy alright. :)
Doesn't hold a candle to Super Star.
***** I know but I want to enjoy it.
+TempestMauve That seems like a matter of opinion rather then the fact you have presented it to be.
ha. i just got my hands on a copy of SSU to hold me till i can grab this. 2 days till release in north america. still need to wait till end of the month
Draculooloo Not really, I say that because there has been a trend of 'reinventing the wheel' with recent Nintendo games. They try to compete with early classics, but only feel passable.
"NOTE: Derrick is suffering from a cold and is still recovering his voice, but he really wanted to narrate the review himself."
man that's dedication right there, get well soon Derrick. i didn't really need this review to convince myself to buy this game when it comes out cause i was already fully interested in the game (MegaKirby X, nuff said), that and i enjoyed Triple Deluxe (1st Kirby game i've ever beaten, not 100% mind you but whatever, lol).
Only want the Meta Knight mode, personally...
When does Kirby Planet Robobot come out
At the end, you said that this game made Triple Deluxe your favorite...?
This dude sounds sick as hell.
Description
He is
This game sounds sick as hell.
This game sounds sick as Derrick.
all of these comments are golden and this is my shitty contriubution
Triple deluxe is one of my favourite platformers of all time. Definately getting this day one. Glad to see all of the good reviews too :)
9:30 'It's cemented Triple Deluxe as my favourite Kirby game of all time', so you prefer it over this then?
He said SUPPLANTED, meaning replaced
Ah, cheers! Thought it didn't sense to end the review like that.
Er, he spent the entire review singing praise about the game, and it isn't fitting he concludes the review saying it's his favorite Kirby Game.
No, he said "...it has supplanted Triple Deluxe..." Supplant means to supersede and replace. I heard it wrong the first time too and had to go back to check.
Derrick. You ok. If you're sick, It could've waited. Much respect to ya. Get well soon.
Best Kirby game ever?
Damn, I'd think Super Star Ultra would be unbeatable
I agree with a lot of that, though one problem I had was that the levels were pretty short and super easy. I beat story mode in less than 24 hours of gameplay, and about 24 hours real time of getting the game. Also on most of the levels, I got all of the code cubes first try, so I never had to do a lot of backtracking
It can be played on the 2Ds XL right?
If kirby would have a game with a 3D arena, how would abilities work?
my next purchase...cant wait till end of the month! plan to 100% triple deluxe. but got side-tracked with superstar ultra, and squeak squad though. :->
I pre ordered the game after I played it at pax now I don't feel like having to wait until June 10
So I have never played a kirby game, but I would really love to get into it. Should I start with this or triple deluxe?
I would prefer to play the one closer to classic kirby gameplay first, but planet robopot is getting insane praise, so I'm not sure which one I should play first.
Honestly I would choose Triple deluxe (3Ds) and/or Return to dreamland (Wii/Wii U) to get hooked to classic Kirby! Did you know that in world 1 of robobot shows the same giant tree as in Return to dreamland!
+Gaming groove guy Ok thank you for your anwser. Going to get triple deluxe. Also no I didn't.
Let's be honest, ever Kirby game is good. I don't know a single bad Kirby game. This game is definitely a must buy for me(heck I already have it pre ordered along with the amiibos)
Although r.i.p. Beetle and Yo-yo. I will always miss you. Sad you didn't return.
Pretty much, I've played practically all of them and enjoyed every single one!
***** i've played them all and enjoyed them all
I think the one I enjoyed the most is kirby air ride. back in my childhood days loved playing it with my friends.
+Yoda Soda 06 Kirby air ride was amazing. I still play it to this day. The game is soooooo much fun. I was so glad when they added a city tour like mode in smash bros(too bad it isn't as good)
The Mech Suit reminds me of the Skells in Xenoblade X
So should i get "triple deluxe or Robobot"?
I still miss the water ability :( now my hope is in poison ability
It reminds me of Drill Dozzer, somehow , like a spiritual successor or something :D
9:09 KIRBY HAS A SHINE, new meta for 20XX.
I like the game, and I absolutely love the Robot Armour.... but I liked Triple Deluxe better. I liked the bright organic feel of TD better than PRs mechanization, that although looking cool, also gets a little stale for me in places. I liked collecting keychains more than stickers, and I like the extra modes like Dedede's Drum Dash better. But as Derrick says, all a matter of preference.
Which soundtrack did you think was bad?
4:29 Indiana Kirby and the Temple of Gambell.
I love the Robobot Armor simply because you can change ability whenever you want.
the mech armor reminds of viles ride armor
I finally buckled down and beat The True Arena and I have to say is the Hardest Kirby boss rush that I have played. I get Star Allies in two days, I hope it is good.
Guys, great review as always! As for Derrick, get well soon! :)
I played the demo and I was blown away. I wish this franchise wasnt so underrated.
Dang... I'm getting a new 3ds soon and am torn between getting this or dragon quest VII first...
Get well soon Derrick!
This is excellent! A call back to the days when games came jam packed with content.
has any other game got the loved rating?? also animal crossing new leaf part 2
Feel better soon Derrick!
I have only one question. Will the story finale contain a shmup segment?
No spoilers, please.
Not quite a shmup, more like Star Fox at the end.
9:26 Oops.
I was a fan of kirby from young and started off watching the show on the cw11 on saturday mornings. I then got kirby super star ultra and fell in love. With my main reason of getting a 3ds afterwards for pokemon and a hope of a 3ds kirby game..my dreams were answered. Triple Deluxe was amazing and even though it was fairly easy, I enjoyed the new mechanics and the modes post game. I am yet to finish true arena in triple deluxe 😂 but hearing planet robobot is out just excited me like when triple deluxe released. I'll be getting it in june and can't wait to beat it. Question is...does that team mode support online?
Anyway nice review, sorry for rambling..kirby is too much hype for me
If you haven't finished the game yet (which you probably have) I'm just gonna say the final boss will be a surprise for you. One of the bonus bosses are absolute surprises.
How do you change colors?
You can't. Those are just costumes you get from inhaling amiibo
Get well soon Derrick
Hope you get better, Derrick.
But it doesn't even come out for like 2 weeks....
