Mirby Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 So as I'm sure at least some of you are aware, Nintendo's releasing a special collection disc for Kirby's 20th Anniversary. I come here today bearing the first screens of said collection (in Japanese). there's also this rather large image that's pretty awesome. Wallpaper material indeed. this is coming out here, right? D: Quote
The Damned Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 I see 9 games that looks lie they can be played, with a virtual hallway timeline of the entire series you can look up and explore a bit. That's two cool things in the same game. I would like to purchase this. Quote
Meteo Xavier Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 You need to drop the valium, Damned. You are far too unenthusiastic in the context of this great event in history. Now where's my fucking Castlevania Collection!? Quote
Mirby Posted June 17, 2012 Author Posted June 17, 2012 Here's the details we know so far. Includes: - Kirby's Dream Land - Kirby's Adventure - Kirby's Dream Land 2 - Kirby Super Star - Kirby's Dream Land 3 - Kirby 64 : The Crystal Shards - features an on-disc calendar - this allows you to look back at the series - includes a special booklet - also features a soundtrack in the package More Challenge Stage Mode - based off the stage in Kirby's Return to Dreamland - aim for the top score while making use of particular copy abilities - includes "Sword Challenge" and "Fighter Death Match" - includes over 10 stages Also it's confirmed for a September release, it seems.

Meteo Xavier Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 I'm still waiting on the aforementioned Castlevania Collection - and while I'm thinking about it: Final Fantasies I-VI for Wii with museum, extras, and all that shit. Unlockable soundtracks, art, Japanese versions/NES versions/updated versions, that N64 Final Fantasy VII demo with Terra, Locke and Shadow, etc. Quote
Dexie Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Pft. Square makes too much money off of selling the FF games individually to ever put them in a collection again. Castlevania Collection would be awesome though. Quote
Meteo Xavier Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Pft. Square makes too much money off of selling the FF games individually to ever put them in a collection again. Money talks, and sooner or later they'll find out how much profit they can make doing little more than shuffling some ROMs onto a disc with some archive content and a shitty museum to hub it all together. Seriously, I love collections and I'm damn well going to buy this Kirby one. I don't see why more companies don't do them for these old classics. You just gotta shovel some ROMs onto a disc and make sure it works. If my $200 laptop from 3 years ago can do it, I'm sure a major game company can too. Quote
Ethan Rex Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 I want dis. I want dis baaaad. EDIT because I can't reed good. Quote
ocre Posted June 17, 2012 Posted June 17, 2012 Ah, my Goddess! Kirby! This is definitely worth a purchase! I look forward to playing these games in Wii U Off TV mode. :3 Quote
EC2151 Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 ha ha hey nintendo where's that metroid anniversary collection? ;_; Quote

BardicKnowledge Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 I'd really like it if the GBA remake of Adventure was unlockable. Similarly, the additional games from the DS version of Superstar would be really great also. Will probably take a pass unless Dream Land 1 and 2 are fully colorized or they add something to the game part of it, as I own them all already. Quote
Overflow Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 ha ha hey nintendo where's that metroid anniversary collection?;_; qqqqqffffffffffttttttttt Quote
Soul Splint Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 I only own Dreamland 1 and 2, so I was excited about this until I saw some footage from Crystal Shards. That game looks awful. I don't know if this will be worth it for the other games I don't have. Any Crystal Shards lovers/haters care to give me their opinion? Quote
The Derrit Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 no air ride :c air ride is hardly a 'classic game' it's from gamecube they're not selling every kirby game for 30 dollars here also i can't speak from heavy experience but i remember as a child playing part of kirby 64 at a friends house and thinking it was pretty clunky. Quote
Korak the Mad Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 This is a game that I will look forward to owning. Mainly so I can play Crystal shards, graphics may look bad, but I've only played a little bit of the game and it is fun. Quote
EC2151 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 The only lasting complaints I have about K64 is how slow Kirby is in the game, and the ease of difficulty (though that can be lobbed at any kirby game). it still is a gem of my childhood and it's not all that bad, really. I KINDA wish they'd include Amazing Mirror, because that's probably one of the best kirby games in recent times. Heck, before Return to Dreamland gave us a real Kirby game, I was calling Amazing Mirror the best Kirby since K64. I understand why they wouldn't, since I doubt the game was super popular and the multi-player mechanic would be lost without the proper equipment and coding, and if the Mario "collection" is any indication Nintendo won't be doing jack shit in either regard.

Mirby Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 amazing mirror is indeed phenomenal. the first time i dropped into another area i was like EVERYTHING IS CONNECTED?!? OH MY GOD THIS IS AWESOME also kirby 64 is cool, the power combinations are fun (i mean, what other kirby game lets you transform into a fridge that drops food, or an exploding snowman?), but he is a bit slow.

I personally loved kirby 64 - its one of my favorites. I never understood why they took out the power combinations thing... Quote
Mirby Posted June 19, 2012 Author Posted June 19, 2012 I personally loved kirby 64 - its one of my favorites.I never understood why they took out the power combinations thing... oh it's one of my favs too. how can you hate a game with Zero-Two and that AWESOME battle theme and a pause menu during which that has two choices: "Continue" and "Tough It Out" Quote
EC2151 Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 it was a whole cool moment - I only wish the fight was actually hard! RtD actually had a not-terrible difficulty curve, at least with 1 player. Any more and the game became a cakewalk. Quote
The Derrit Posted June 22, 2012 Posted June 22, 2012 Nintendo Direct confirmed this is coming out in america Quote
