Nooo kirby!

What has happened to him at the end of this quick look!?

No but seriously why does Kirby hate trees?

If you shake it while sucking .....

Wish this was four player.

I wish they would do a four player Kirby run on TNT rather than Battlefield.

You lied to me, Ryan Davis!

I can't find any information on an Australian release for this anywhere.

Plasma Kirby is now Spark Kirby, and health makin out is back. This is a Kirby game that I will play.

This damn game is sold out everywhere I have been today to shop and let me tell you thats a lot of goddamn places.

This looks great. I wonder if it could make it to 3DS.

I'm shocked at how much awesome stuff is packed into this game. really cool and imaginative stuff.

Thanks for the quick look, guys. I basically had an epiphany which was I need to play more fucking Nintendo games.

I really wish nintendo went and did the Kirby 64 dual element thing again. That was so awesome.

However this still looks great. Might have to dust off my Wii...

ughhhhhh that's rick, coo, and kine from Dream Land 2.</nerdrage>

Why is this video a youtube video?

This seems a good bit like the dreamland games. By the way, those 3 animals that he turned into when he had stone were Rick the hamster, Kine the fish (I believe his name was Kine anyway...) and Coo the owl.

Please tell me Ryan wasn't thinking of Hamtaro.

Oh, so yea. After dozens of quick looks I've finally figured out who makes the wierd sounding "woop" and "woo" sounds. It's Patrick. Wish I didn't notice it in the first place but now it drives me crazy >,<

I love Kirby games. They're fun and enjoyable. What's not to love?

He totally was, then he switched gears and pretended he was mistaking him for some old Nintendo mascot.

Ryan Davis: constantly confident about topics which he knows little about. Almost incapable of saying "Ya know, I'm not sure".

Eh, I've been a sucker for Kirby since I played Kirby's Adventure on the NES. Sold ... again

edit: Apparently you're a terrible jerk for not remembering Rick. You know? Everyone's favorite, Rick the Hamster!

This. I pay a membership fee so they can host content on youtube? :|

Can't watch this video directly from my non-subscriber iPhone browser. Will I seriously have to open the YouTube app and search for every WM video from now on?

YouTube sucks!

I want the Duder back

That looks super fun.

Look at the top-left of the video before you hit play. There's a menu.

I get the feeling that the Youtube video is just a mistake. I imagine Vinny has it setup to link to the youtube version of the Quick Look due to some issue with their archived version. I'm sure they'll get this sorted out. I'd be surprised to see them take such a 180 on controlling their video content and providing a premium experience to their users. So, hopefully we'll all wakeup tomorrow and find that Vinny got the high quality archived version up and raring to go. :)

Anyway, despite the Youtube distraction, it's nice to have some more whimsical games to add to the current gaming environment.

Nah, I'm pretty sure that he was referring to Rick, a character from the Kirby series.

Oh wow, they brought back High Jump? Don't tell me Ball is in this game too.

That first statue was the animal helpers from the earlier kirby games! Forgot the bird's and Fish's name but the hamster was called Rick.

I always love kirby games, and the music is sick as well.

You can't suck up the devil pigs! What do you think this is?

And I think Kirby Super Star got pretty tough, if I remember correctly.

There is an article on the front page that describes why they switched to youtube for non-premium members - to lower the band width usage, reach more people and to get access to Youtube's ad system

KIRBY THROW THAT BOMB!!

Ah. Thanks for the clarification. Dave explains the changes well. I do suppose I can live with it; I can understand their desire to branch out to new people. :)

Seems a bit similar to the adventure mode in Super Smash Bros Brawl. I guess its made by the same guys as well.

I love this game so much. Simplistic and fun multiplayer that brings back the memories of Kirby Super Star for the snes. :3 Also that Ninja Dojo mini game is amazingly addictive. Me and a buddy couldn't stop playing.

Shake the remote while you suck. mmmmm

Can Kirby combine powers to make a new one like in the N64 version?

Jaggies...GALORE!

Holy hell the Wii ages horribly

Kirby hates trees and forest he wants to destroy them all.

That first stone transform was Rick the Hamster, Kine the Sunfish and Coo the Owl from Kirby's Dream Land 2. I recognize the bronze statue too but I couldn't tell you where that is from. The anvil could be a reference to an older Kirby transform or something else Nintendo related.

This looks so much better on the Dolphin emulator. Like every Wii game does I guess.

This looks a lot more interesting than Epic Yarn was. Probably rent it.

Going back and watching this, man Ryan and Patrick have no idea what they're talking about.

"When you shake the remote while you're sucking, you can suck larger objects."
