realtalk: does triple deluxe have challenging content after all the main easy poo poo? because return to dreamland's main story was fairly easy (final boss was a motherfucking bitch) but then you get Ex mode where you have half health, enemy spawns are randomized and bosses get new attacks and even new forms later on.

Thank you for posting this. This is a good example of why Revenge of Meta Knight is better than Great Cave Offensive. Great Cave Offensive is the story of Kirby being too stupid to not fall into a mine. Revenge of Meta Knight is the story of Kirby being such an impossible force of nature, that when he is shot with one of the most powerful weapons in the universe..... It just slows him down, for honestly just a level. Revenge of Meta Knight is Part 1 of the story of how kirby is the most dangerous thing in his existence. He takes down the most powerful military vessel in Popstar. And mostly does it out of spite. At every turn Meta Knight sends his most powerful weapons after kirby. Heavy Lobster. Heavy Lobster can fire hyper beams, and kirby continually just fucks poo poo up. In the end Meta Knight basically SACRIFICES himself, to run kirby off, just long enough to save his staff. Meta knight doesn't enter the last fight with winning in mind. He is there as a distraction so that people can abandon ship. This leads me into Milky Way Wishes, or as i like to call it: How Kirby got tricked into loving up Space Time. Kirby is powerful. Super loving powerful. We see this ALL the time. In Milky Way Wishes. he is tricked into making the conditions for the perfect wish, by Marx. How does kirby do this? By aligning the planets of Popstar's solar system, to bring out NOVA. Nova is literally the Space Time clock of the Kirby universe. It is what keeps Space Time as Space Time. Kirby draws Nova out, and fucks it up internally just for the chance to make a wish. Then Marx bounces in and steals the wish. TO become ALL POWERFUL. He wished a perfect wish to become the most powerful thing in the Dreamland universe. And what is Kirby's response? He kills the (now) Most powerful being in Dreamland. Which leads me to the Idea that King Dedede hating kirby, being a SMART thing. Kirby can gently caress poo poo up just by walking past it. King Dedede might not always be a benevolent ruler, but largely he just wants to keep Some status Quo. Which kirby largely is the opposite of. Eventually even Dedede realizes that opposing Kirby doesn't work. Which is why by the time we get to Return to Dreamland, they team up. You can't fight kirby and win. It just doesnt work. Kirby is like some sorta god of entropy or destruction in his universe. And that is loving awesome

well kirby's backstory involves him being some sort of cosmic deity born with all the power of a star, hence how his mouth leads to a black abyss and he's able to absorb anything while sustaining no damage metaknight is of the same race, but he's not as powerful, however he tries drat hard whereas kirby never really had to and is a goofy gently caress

He is dumb. Dumb and largely motivated by base instinct. Which makes him sorta scary too. If you even loving resemble cake in the slightest, you're probably hosed in the Dreamlandverse.

It had dedede mode which is technically harder but not really. But then it has the hardest and most awesome True Arena in the series. The super final boss is incredible.

There are three schools of Kirby (action, chill, and abstract) and it would be rather crass and unkirby to weigh games of two separate schools (Super Star and Dreamland 3)

NES- Kirby's Adventure SNES- Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Kirby Super Star came out late too) N64- Kirby 64 Wii- Kirby's Return to Dreamland
