Just started the event.Why isn't this something we can do as an option, this is fun as hell.
President Max Profitt Haltmann
>>553241850One of the few Kirby characters that’s canonically had sex
>>553247487how do we know? susie could've been grown in a tube.
Why is the "defeat an enemy with Fireworks" checkmark actually impossible? I'm playing with level 1 CPUs and I still can't do it, the item just doesn't last long enough
>>553254860set the machines to something weak like the paper star and add the handicaps and make them play as star man as well.
HI RIDERS
This isn't just a race, but a special race to see who's the fastest.
Fecto Forgo
Being on shadow or paper star in city trial has me freaked out
>>553280819>gentle breeze>diesomehow it's even worse if you choose to play as marx
https://x.com/poxamarquinhos/status/2009339057634201910 i like this au
>>553281897
>>553282620
>>553283326
>>553283592
>>553283904Must be pretty talented to have done that picture of a fairy with a wide brush
>>553283592I'm actually a little shocked that King Dedede isn't Meta Knight's husband in this AU.
Just saw an amazing tip for doing quick spins easierMap the GL/GR button on your pro controller to up and/or down on the stick/d-padThen when you want to quick spin, just tap up or down on the stick and whatever back g button you assigned to the opposite input at the same time
Terraria anon here. Marx got to see his first Solar Eclipse and this is the response. For people who don't play Terraria, it is the event where a bunch of enemies based on monsters from 20th century films start appearing and killing people on sight, such as Vampires, the Halloween Psycho, Frankenstein, Chainsaw Killers and even Mothra
>>553290935I simply use the "shake to spin" option
>>553291456Fuck, forgot to actually add the screenshot. Here it is.
>>553283326He reminds me of me.
>>553293028Also, I crafted a sword using materials that I got from defeating Dark Matter, which was a boss that was added by this Kirby mod, and I am shredding through enemies with this and it is so satisfying.
...Well, I kind of expected this to happen considering his track record...
>>553284432Most shipping in the Kirby fandom involves the creation of an alternate universe since there isn't a lot of romance shown in the original stories, so it just comes down to the author's preferences. Dedede x Meta Knight or Kirby are AUs for example, but Dedede x Ado is not since their romance is depicted in the manga, which HAL oversaw and approved of. The games also count since her nickname for Dedede, which means "husband", is part of her description in a guidebook for DL3.
>>553297231>Most shipping in the Kirby fandom involves the creation of an alternate universe since there isn't a lot of romance shown in the original stories, so it just comes down to the author's preferencesGood point, the only reason I'm shocked is because from the artist's preferences it seemed in lieu with their tastes.
Yep, Marx obliterated me. Guess I gotta prepare more to kick his ass.
>>553296534Frankly it would've been more offputting if he didn't pull this stunt
>>553297231>The games also count since her nickname for Dedede, which means "husband", is part of her description in a guidebook for DL3.But does Dedede ever call Ado his wife? I thought it was onesided.
>>553298496They are canonically good friends, so his acceptance of her also means he accepts being called her husband. Part of his character is also being standoffish, so even if he doesn't express his love for her, it's implied by their stated relationship.
>>553300073so it's your headcanon.
>>553300073>Part of his character is also being standoffishSince the topic is at hand, that's probably the best aspect of King Dedede when it comes to shipping him. It adds for a nice layer depending on the depiction of why he's so standoffish when it comes to more romantic matters like love because of his pride, it's especially nice to think of how he would put aside his standoffish nature for the one he loves.
The jester has been beaten. He says that he isn't himself when he is hungry but I just think he is a power hungry liar. But I like him regardless.
>>553300148Since Adeleine's manga design appears in Kirby 64's ending art and her game design is based on her DL3 manga design, the games and manga could be considered as the same continuity, which is likely the case since Adeleine's nicknames are shared between the manga and games.
don't forget, the collab still has plenty of room for those who want to contribute
WAKU WAKU
never ever in a million years
>>553310259Go suck an egg
>>553310492He at least has a license sticker; his fans should be grateful for that.
>>553305646And since HAL endorses Hirokazu Hikawa's manga where Dedede clearly loves Adeleine, then game Dedede also loves her. It's probably why they released the "Hug from Kirby" video on Valentine's Day, because there's a story about Dedede wanting Valentine chocolate from Adeleine in an older volume. And the Sleep Kirby drawing in Air Riders is referencing the Kirby Time books, meaning Adeleine is aware of these manga and books because they are all happening in the same universe, and the only difference is the artstyle which already changes between games. So Dedede does love Adeleine because all the stories in the franchise are interconnected.
>>553310720well if you insist.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oB3cV1OZ6-Y
>>553316237the rainbow epstien islands.
>>553326758The characters' ages aren't confirmed, and Dedede isn't much taller than Adeleine so his age is probably close to hers. Same could be said for Kirby and Ribbon.
What happened with the leaks that Planet Robobot was getting a switch port? What happened to that?
>>553338871Well you see, anon, it was never real, completely invented by "professional leakers" who weren't getting their dicks sucked enough that week, and everyone believed it because the average Kirby fan is a gullible retard.Does that clear things up?
>>553343749NTA but it does still make me wonder why they just felt like rereleasing the Robobot Nendoroid last year. Without a remaster announcement or something like that it does just feel kinda random.
>>553343749It's more like the average Robobot fan is female, much like the fanbase in general is. That's why the herd mentality is stronger than in male-dominated fanbases.
>>553344096Nintendo just Does That sometimes and they never really have a reason. The one time anything like that lined up was when they revealed Steve the same day as Minecon and I feel like that was more of a coordinated brand effort.I could've sworn when they shipped out more K. Rool amiibo on the day of the last Direct last year that we'd see something bigger related to him in particular during that, maybe they'd rip the spoiler bandaid off (not unlike the Nintendo Today calendar finally did a few months later), but the closest thing was the DK Island DLC for Bananza. It's all weird, the way they handle it.Maybe with that logic in mind, they pushed the Robobot nendos out again because it had to do with Kirby in a machine, and that was peripherally similar to Air Ride Machines (except not at all)? Closest thing I can figure.
Everyone say hi to the spider on his game's 12th anniversary
>>553316237Basically, Dedede x Ado is canon and part of Ado's character whether or not Dedede reciprocates her feelings, and to ignore it is to participate in an AU rather than being a fan of the actual series. The western fandom's idea of Adeleine is largely only an AU version of the Japanese fandom's, which knows who Ado actually is as a character. She's a girl who is friends with Dedede and calls him names like "Dan'na", or "Dede-sama" because she loves him.
Does >he think anyone actually gives a shit about this besides >him
>>553353165It's well known that /kdg/ is filled with people who hate Adofags and feed off their misery because everyone here is a closeted faggot. So it doesn't really matter what happens here anymore.
>>553306332what exactly am i looking at here??
>>553355013>everyone here is a closeted faggotSpeak for yourself
>>553358168Sky Garden in City Trial, collab background for people to draw on top of
kumazaki probably ships meta x dedede anyway
>>553358401Shitposting about Ado and her fans to see their reaction is gay no matter how you spin it. It's just engaging with thread personalities instead of the lore and characters.
>>553364730Susie would never date a savage.
https://youtu.be/QbrS3FlBQ-Q?si=QorqQ0JeIy2XBFE7Kirby games/characters with this feel?
>>553366147My crackship is Susie x Marx
>>553366147>implying she wouldn’t for research>or to piss off her father
>>553369406Imagine they made Planet Robobot 2 but it's 3D and has an active "ruin Taranza's life" button.
>>553378286good ideas
>>553306332The ultimate life form riding the ultimate machine. I love the Transform Star, really shouldn't have postponed this as much as I did but I'm very happy with how it turned out. I was worried about hogging up too much of the collab real estate but seeing the quiet attendance this time I think people won't mind... Excited to see what everyone else adds! Honestly would be funny if we have Simirror riding the /kdg/ rating icon as a machine for this collab, for one. Really hope people draw more Riders soon, don't tell me I drew that whole race track area for nothing...
>>553381624Yes, You drew this for nothing, Air Riders has unironically killed off the passion of the artists in this general because Sakurai deliberately excluded their favorites.
Imagine being such a pathetic faggot that you need to try and break the spirit of one of the general's sole OC providers just because you're salty that your waifu didn't get in>inb4 "m-muh falseflag!!1!"No
>>553383245...anon, I was playing it up for the bit with the ellipsis at the end. Why shitpost off the collab? If anything I'm surprised by the lack of Susie and Galacta in it seeing as one's playable and the other's present as a Meta alt, I figure people have just been busy given this was posted on Christmas (hell it's the reason I took so long to contribute after doing the background). Elfilis wasn't in Air Riders and I still drew him, Tiff was in the FL collabs despite her not even being in the games, don't be silly now.
>>553381624Oh, I forgot about this. I'll go ahead and add Susie soon.
>>553383762>mentioning falseflag out of nowhereso it probably was a falseflag after all
>>553383926No, I've just seen enough people rush to a fanbase's defense and cry falseflag the second I call it out that I preempted it
>>553366147Susie is a sadistic savage herself, at least most of Taranza's were on accident.
>>553383808I'm working on Galacta right now, I made a sketch ages ago but completely forgot about it.
>>553384190ok falseflagger
>>553384651Whatever Adofag
>>553383819>I forgot about this>>553384592>forgot about it.In retrospect, dropping it right on Christmas likely wasn't the brightest idea, does make sense it'd get lost in the general holiday season shuffle. Taking a note for the next collab at least...
>couldn't help himselfkek
>>553384290Susie is not a savage, she is a woman of the modern age, of intellectual civilization.
>>553385009yeah it's probably better to do that stuff before or after the December holiday period
>>553385021If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck, and makes every attempt to shun and pretend fellow ducks aren't part of its group the second they say something out of line, it's probably a duck
>>553385912meds
can you guys just like, fuck off somewhere else?
>>553386256You can find them in your cabinet, anon, you shouldn't be asking random people online for them
>>553386503>projection
>>553387612Yes, that's what you're doing
>>553387965>No u againYou're not trying anymore.
>>553388192Hey, I got you to change your typing style, so that's something
Seems like a falseflag that turned into one person talking to themselves to force an argument to me.
>>553388448eh I'd ship it.
>>553389824I used to not like it in favor of MetaSusie but it has grown on me. That whole opposites attract and the fact they have something in common narratively helps.
>>553385691I'm not talking about origins, I'm talking about present actions. Susie is a dirty savage by those alone. Chasing down people to turn them into monsters.
>>553391356Did Susie really turn them into monsters though? What you think is savagery is actually misunderstood innovation. Let's take Whispy Woods for example. Turning Whispy Woods into Clanky Woods seems bad at a glance but she technically improved him by making him stronger and efficiently mobile than when he was just a tree.
>>553381624I fucking love the Jet Star, it's both fun and strong as hell in races honestly I don't like City Trial much
I hear that Kirby isnt actually round.
BEAT IT, CHICK!
>>553397215having your head in the clouds is one thing but your being a cloud? that's just going too far.
walk me home kirb!
>>553399107Adeleine was teasing Kirby the whole time she was roleplaying the school romcom with him and Chuchu because he's basically a small child in every manga, and Ribbon's a kindergartener which is why it's ok when Kirby tries to date her but not Dedede. Adeleine also shows Kirby affection in the DL3 4-koma and the Kirby Time book because she's not serious when she does it like she is with Dedede.
>>553394547Susie didn't have enough Glide. My favorite strategy is to use the Paper Star, go to the volcano, use it to boost up in the air to see any floating island and then spend half of the match finding as much glide as possible to get to those islands for a boost of stats before switching to something different.>spoilerI don't like City Trial because it doesn't allow for multiple stadiums in one City Trial session, I don't see why they couldn't at least add something like that.
>>553406969I don't like how frustrating some of the random elements can be, also I fucking hate the special/swap machine button. 16 player online is also too chaotic for my liking. Air Ride doesn't have those issues, just some situational annoyances like terrible courses for your machine (but you can still outskill people to secure a decent finish) or getting Sleep from an ability wheel, plus lagging players usually aren't a big deal.>it doesn't allow for multiple stadiums in one City Trial sessionPretty lame they didn't add that option for paddock matches, it seems so obvious.
>finally playing Triple Deluxe>play The Arena (regular)>Pyribbit refuses to stay in the main layer where I can hit him>lose ability against Sectonia to a bottomless pit>get knocked into a bottomless pit and die against Flowered SectoniaThe True Arena is going to suck, isn't it
>>553411292it's not even the hardest one in the series btw.
>>553391881Only savages would try to reshape their savagery into deluded righteousness.
>>553411292>>Pyribbit refuses to stay in the main layer where I can hit himOut-fucking-skilled
>>553417693Only savages would make up excuses to continue their savagery in the face of innovation.
>>553417693>>553419470ladies, you're both savages
>>553421926>T. Galactic Savage
>>553421926Oh man Nova you've got perfect timing I could really go for a pizza right now could you get me one?
>>553422385I hope you like ant toppings.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bN5dYVD5Tc
>>553423718the slick star does have a massive learning curve
>>553423121nova's ability to summon ants frightens me.
>>553428083he's probably bros with the animus
>>553440006and sini-star.
Man.
>>553450903https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7jhccXVazg
I like star crossed level design more than Forgotten land.And Magolor expansion was kino , I hope the next 2D kirby game goes with the combo shit
mornin kirbs!
Can i use Kirby as a storage device?
>>553463506kirby uses kirby as a storage device
>>553465298Good. I need to store some drugs.
>Trying to up my Rank in Top Ride>Everything going well>Suddenly 2 laggy as fuck Rocky users keep showing up constantly together>Teleporting nonstop and constant damage happening to meNearly impossible to hit top 2 positions because of them together. Maaaaaaaaan.
>>553448283l-lewd...
Kirby is now officially a they/them.
>>553491601The header for this news piece refers to him as a "he". Shit-tier bait.
>A: Kaa-kun,>Wado-kun,>A: Dede-sama!>D: I'm the great king, aren't I?>D: I want a more fitting name for a "daioh"!>A: Daioh...>A: Dai-chan!>D: That's like a completely different person!
>>553492091So a he/they. Not much difference
>>553492304You can't really salvage this one, shitpost-kun, but I almost commend you for trying.
>>553492725The writing is very clear. Keep coping.
not sure if actual woketard or just dramafag shitposter
Parallel Susie designs uploaded.I'm done for now with designs.
I swear I've only ever seen hedge sculptures of the characters from DL1/Adventure/Super Star...Sakurai's not that egomaniac is he?
>>553503065Really? You think otherwise?
>pronoun drama didn't work for long>switches to director wars insteadShitposters are open books
What's a Doomer?
foul creature
>>553507359it's like a consoomer, only they are nihilistic.
kirby enemy idea named consoomer
it would be a robobot enemy
>>553411292Pyribbit is the most annoying boss in the entire series, what was HAL thinking. As for the True Arena, it’s not too bad, one of the easier ones in the series imo. Last time I replayed the game which wasn’t long before FL was released I actually beat it on my first try, I think Dark Meta Knight (marked as spoiler in case it’s your first play through) is the toughest first of the True Arena honestly.
>>553524790>firstMeant fight, but you get the point.
>>553522647I like the idea of Gooey looking more sinister as he gets older/stronger but still being the silly goofball underneath it all.
>>553533430he blows up the moon then sleeps on it, his greed disgusts me.
>>553537961It's not like he knew defeating Nightmare would blow a chunk out of the moon
I have a funny shitpost drawing idea: gigantes marries star dream (the computer)
>>553540212...what would the logistics of that even look like?
>>553541547just imagine how robots combine to make a bigger robot power rangers style, that's how.
What setup did y'all use to beat Gigantes under 1:45? KJ + Shadow Star with 0 allies?
>>553524790On this topic, how would you all rank the true arenas from most to least difficult
>>553506340Prove him >>553503065 wrong.
kirbump.
>>553561963Yeah, I used that one. Grab the quick spin item if you can, you'll nuke the weak spots extremely fast with it. Remember to make the CPU controlling Gigantes as retarded and handicapped as possible, it will almost never attack you that way.
>>553540212That would be like marrying your aunt
>>553564991RTDLDX is the hardest, SSU or TD is the easiest>is ultimate cup z or ultimate cup z ex the true arena for fl now
>2026>still no traditional RPG spinoff
