I may buy it because it has 'Epic' in the name.

This is the best Kirby game yet.

Everything about it is awesome, from Robot Kirby to the house customization.

The art style reminds me a lot from Kirby's Adventure's japanese commercial, too.

Also Meta Knight with a giant fire sword

damn straight

This Kirby's getting a lot of features put into it. Going behind the background, pulling the level around, Dedede on strings...
Also why does UFO look like it's not much more than a flying version of Crash in those trailers? Or it's just me...

My bet is that abilities have more movements rather than just a single attack, so it does more things. It's shown abducting coins somewhere I think.

Also it's been a while we don't see Dedede possesed.

And as a unrelated note there seems to be another Kirby game for DS about managing a bunch of Kirbies. Probably a Flagship game and not really that good, but who doesn't want an army of Kirbies?

It's gonna be a good 2010 and 2011 for Nintendo with the 3DS coming.

Wonder how much gameplay's in it? I don't expect anything too hard since it's Kirby, but at the same time I wouldn't want to breeze past this in 3 hours.

Reimu: Isn't that a 3DS Kirby game?

It's a Kirby game. Expect easy up to the final boss/endgame which will be very hard.

It's for DS.

Chances are the 3DS one is yet another game.

Epic Yam's box art was revealed. It is schedule to come out Oct 17 (NA) so mark the date!

The new art style in the DS game really intrigues me. It is certainly unique, even down to the enemy designs. And is that an airship in the second screen?

Re: boxart - [trope=AmericanKirbyIsHardcore]American Kirby is (still) Hardcore[/trope]?

Very much looking forward to this game. I love what they're doing with the art style and mechanics, although it sadly looks like no more eating people to steal their abilities (one of the trailers showed something closer to the Yoshi's Island transformation bubbles).

Ooh, didn't know that was a DS game since it was lumped in with all the 3DS stuff when I looked.

Probably will end up being one of the last major DS titles by Nintendo.

More articles are popping up as the game's release looms in the near future.

Seems Prince Fluff was the original star, and the Kirby touch was added to give it life.

More gameplay and music.

Be sure to watch the video.

seeing as it was scheduled for the same time in Japan as in the US I assumed it would be a world wide release... I guess I'm too naive.

Regardless this and the DS game is a must have for me! :E

The (NA) release is nearly here! It will be out this upcoming Sunday. I can't wait!

GoNintendo has some more videos here. First video is the intro, which goes into how Kirby can transform and why he doesn't just suck things up. Seems the Halberd is an ordinary part of Kirby's world now.

The second video is gameplay of the various forms we've seen, and the third video is just a short clip of how the house decoration thing works.

Also, NA commercial, complete with angry eyebrows.

Oh yeah... I forgot. Nintendo loves their Sunday releases.

Still iffy on it, want to read the reviews. If there's enough content in the game, I'm sold. If it's over in 3-4 hours, probably not.

The games and guides came into the store today on Fed Ex Ground. The guides are small and they are spiral bound.

First reviews are in. Metacritic score of 90 after 9 reviews.

Apparently the game *is* easy but it's still around 6-8 hours long not counting the bonus content; apparently the secret levels are some of the best in the game.

The demo I played at the Euro Gamer Expo actually got me really interested in this game, I feel this is really the game that Kirby will reestablish himself in the eyes of Nintendo. And with LOZ and Mario to contend with, that's no easy task

Can't wait for the European release, Good luck to ya Kirby!
