I'm playing the DS remake right now, and it's incredible. You guys were right - this might be the pinnacle of Kirby games (though Amazing Mirror was a damn masterpiece as well; it's a tough call).

Mirror ability FTW

Tac is a boss. I really like the little jet guy too, though.

Did you ever play Block Ball? I loved that one so much as a kid.

I'll have to play it more before I can agree, but it's certainly off to a great start!

I should, man! Epic Yarn too.

This is a perfectly fine opinion to have. Amazing Mirror "so good"

I really like how The Great Cave Offensive is essentially a precursor to AM's gameplay. It's so fun!

Super Star is such a great game. It's Kirby gameplay at its finest, IMO.

More games could use the Dream Course treatment. Lighten up game developers!

Why does everyone like the Metroid style ones so much?

I think it's annoying to not be able to go back and forth from the same rooms.

Super Star Ultra was my introduction to the character that had so intrigued me in Smash Bros. (Holy crap, it's already been four years! That's just... wow)

The word 'flawless' gets tossed around a lot, but it probably does apply here. When I play these games, it fills me with an insatiable glee that I just can't suppress. I would rank the games that I've played as follows:

1. Adventure
2. Super Star Ultra
3. Epic Yarn
4. 64: The Crystal Shards
5. Canvas Curse
6. Nightmare in Dreamland
7. Amazing Mirror
8. Dream Land 3

But really, they're all amazing!

I haven't played it yet, but Dream Land 2 was pretty great, so I was hoping 3 would be more of that.

KRTD is really great as far as mainline Kirbies go. One of the few with co-op, as well.
As for spinoffs, I like Epic Yarn quite a bit, but Mass Attack is severely underrated.

Kirby Super Star comes very close to being an ideal game. It pretty much hits every note perfectly. From the diverse game mechanics to diverse power abilities and fun co-op, it just...works beautifully.

And yeah, mirror was one of my favorites to muck about with. A bit weak offensively, but it has a ballin' shield :3

As someone who 100% complete Dream Land 3 (I think), it's fine as a successor to Dream Land 2, but it feels really slow-paced compared to Super Star and only having one attack per ability again was kind of a let down.

But if you liked Dream Land 2, you should be able to like Dream Land 3, there's co-op, more animal partners to change things up, the art style is pretty nice, it consistently has nice calm music, and there's an extra "mission" in each level to make things interesting.

It's also NOT very hard, no Kirby game is...


Hold on, I'm not going to walk into a Super Star topic and not even mention anything about it.
To me, it's 2D platforming perfected, without a doubt in my mind that it's Masahiro Sakurai's greatest creation!

I love the Metroid-style ones. They just feel so... fresh. Plus, Amazing Mirror had incredible level design.

LMAO @ Kirby Christ Superstar

Sakurai is really talented; the guy designed Meteos, Melee, and the early Kirby games. It's a shame that he's become kind of a joke due to Brawl. :\

4) Avalanche
5) Canvas Curse

7) Air Ride
8) Adventure
9) Dream Land 2
