Always enjoyed the Kirby games. Chrystal shards on the n64 was one of my favourites years ago. And nintendo, stop putting fucking Wii on the end of every game name.

That's like asking them why they put 64 at the end of all their N64 games.

@craigbo180: crystal shards and of course, KIRBY MOTHERFUCKING SUPERSTAR. Epic yarn was not a great entry in the series to be perfectly honest, it was a great game with tons of character and it looked absolutely fantastic, but it just wasn't a kirby game at heart.

Kirby 64 is still one of my favorite games. And FOUR-PLAYER WHAT?

I'm not really seeing what there is to be excited about because I don't have the same nostalgia for this series as many people here seem to have. I don't know too much about the history of Kirby, so maybe I'm missing something here, but it looks like a mess to me. Kirby travelling through some pretty unimaginative levels. The design also looks much less impressive than Epic Yarn, seems to me like they've hurt themselves by using polygonal models instead of some nice 2D art, especially since from the footage it's only a 2D platformer.

Looks like some wonderful Kirby action there. So glad to see that Kirby still sticks to its roots because the developers know that it does not need innovation.

He is made of some sort of non yarn material. Kirby is a abomination.

Hopefully this will include strange mouth kissing when sharing health pickups.

This looks fantastic. Day one purch for me! Good Nintendo games hold their value. 
I'm glad Nintendo are keeping traditional 2d platformers going...  Wario Land, New Super Mario Brothers, Kirby Epic Yarn and Donkey Kong Country Returns! All fantastic!
I hope they apply the same thinking to the next Metroid. Get Retro back on it.
