Maybe it's the tryptohan talking, but

I think you better qualify that assertion, Willis.

Amazon has shipped my copy - but it will be in my hands only 10 days from now. No problem, I can wait. In the mean time I'm slave driving my girls to finish some games they were not too far from finishing (Rabbids Go Home, Lego Harry Potter).

A game easy and a bit slow paced, but absolutely cute and very fun to play. I give it 9/10.

Looking at the reviews, I'm not the only one who feels a Kirby game must be always along these lines - cute, cute and cute. Like I said in the other thread, is definitely the one I would give a little children as a gift.

Ugh. This is the game I am by far most looking forward to out of Nintendo's offerings... Why isn't it out here until next year? *sob*

I think what I admire the most about this game is the way gameplay is integrated with the presentation. The style itself is quite fulfilling; it owes quite a bit to Paper Mario and Yoshi's Island, but the way the style is implement in the level and character design is impressive.

I would have liked to see Good Feel take the concept one more level and have the player actually using the yarn of fallen foes to create items or change aspects of the world, but the gameplay itself, such as it is, appears very solid. I loved Wario Land: The Shake Dimension, and I am bound to love this. I hope to see the same creative use of simple character abilities in conjunction with level design to create fulfilling experiences.

I noticed that Jun Ishikawa isn't composing, but that doesn't bother me very much, especially as Tomoya Tomita is rapidly becoming one of my favorite composers. His funky jazz style and elaborate piano arrangements are exquisite, I'd say.

"It felt like... pants!" is now one of my daily expressions.

I should really stop torturing myself by reading these Kirby threads...

I wouldn't be surprised if 'tis released on March 31st. (The last day of Q1, i.e the latest possible release date for the game. Unless it gets delayed into Q2, of course...)

*Cries self to sleep*

Why is there a delay for the game in EU? That doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. I am considering picking this up for my niece to play with me, but her mother (my sister-in-law) is so against the idea of her daughter getting sucked into video games...

I got it and have just played the first few levels. The art is so great in this game!

It is a little weird not being able to float up wherever I want with Kirby. Still gotta get used to it.

Kirby's kind of a jerk in this game. A lot of these enemies are just minding their own business, then kirby comes and twists them up into a knot to use them as weaponry. Some of these Waddle Dees were just sleeping innocently, then they were annihilated

Also the game starts because Kirby tried to eat somebody else's tomato. I mean, yeah, yin-yarn might be up to no good, but Kirby wasn't aware of that when he ate his Metamato.

Kirby regularly goes around beating up people just because they're there. He goes and beats up Dedede every time somebody catches a headcold. He's a merciless killing machine driven first by hunger and secondly by rage.

Well you can go through the whole game without killing a single Wadle Dee. Even the ones who somehow got a weapon can be neutralized by ripping it from them. That's what Kirby would do if there is a canon of sorts :P
