I'm extremely amused by some of these reviews.

A 5/10 from GameSpot? They're complaining that it's too difficult and it takes time to get a hang of the controls because, god forbid, a game takes longer than 1 minute to learn. Aren't they the ones that docked points off of Triple Deluxe for being too easy? I guess I should've expected as much since they were the same ones to criticize Tropical Freeze for its difficulty.

And really Giant Bomb? A 4/10? And your critique is that it's "soulless"? From where I'm standing, it looks to be one of the most charming games of the year (next to Yoshi's Woolly World).

Regardless of the reviews, I'm still getting this game. I think it'll land in the high 70s or low 80s for its meta, depending on how the other big sites like IGN score it. This is typically how Kirby games are rated anyways; they're not exactly the types of games that wow reviewers because it's either they play it too safe (Return to Dreamland, Triple Deluxe) or they try something completely different and the reviewers get scared (Rainbow Curse).

@underline: I'm not saying it won't be charming I think it will but it takes more than bright colors and a Nintendo character to make it charming

@Bold: change a couple words and you have Sony exclusives like the Order in a nutshell and why I'll be buying the order lol.  I completely agree with your stance here.
