64 Tower.
Sometimes I wonder what would have happened if Meta Knight did win in his take over of Dream Land and how Dream Land would've changed underneath his rule.
oomifey fairy
>>564801353A horror beyond imagining.
>>564801561It wouldn't be too bad I'm sure. I believe Dream Land would become far more industrious as a result.
kirby 65 when
We need another Kirby game to be announced soon; Air Riders is doing too much damage in the spotlight.
I'M HAMSTER-Y RICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>564804883I think it's gonna be a little while before the next (big) game.
>>564802642kirby 69
>>564786346Well, at least there was someone based last thread.
>>564819657smoochable blimp.
I'm not sure if I have the will power to finish the thing I'm working on.
>>564829583What'd that be?
>>564815460Please slow down. You're going to explode!!
>>564830597basically a psudo fan fic what if the ancients failed to capture elifis type deal, that'd cause a massive ripple effect across the loreI've got about 2 chapters done but progress on chapter 3 has been sluggish since each chapter is more or less going to be a self contained story from a different character's perspective, it's probably the most ambitious thing I've had in mind in awhile, chapter three is covering a certain crazy cultist who isn't crazy since there wasn't anyone to seal void so... yeah it's been rough to figure it out.chapter one is the one I'm most proud of though
>>564801353All of Dreamland becomes Wagies put into their cages while Metaknight rules over them all
>>564801353Either the universe would be fucked because the first thing that came to Pop Star that was out of his league would fold him and break reality (my bet is on Zero)Or he would be ruling a victorian eske multi solar trading company with Susie as his queen.
>>564815460this happened to me once
New official artwork just dropped
>>564858797Ribbon my beloved
>>564848553There was a theory that ROMK takes place after DL2 and Meta Knight's whole schizo meltdown about Dream Land being too lazy was a reaction to how easily Dedede got ass raped by Dark Matter, and that Dream Land would be safer under Meta Knight's control
>>564858797waow
>>564858797>Ribbon de-coupled from AdeleineOh my god, it's a miracle
>>564848553>Either the universe would be fucked because the first thing that came to Pop Star that was out of his league would fold him and break reality (my bet is on Zero)Meta Knight could theoretically get the Love-Love Stick to defeat Zero so there's a lot of final bosses he'd be able to defeat. The real enemy I think would be a stopping force is Elfilis because we don't know if Meta Knight can Mouthful Mode.
>>564861626At that point, Dedede was only a figurehead that Kirby allowed to remain in place, but it was obvious to everyone that Kirby held the true power over Dream Land. In both cases, Meta Knight's military preparations were primarily taking Kirby into account as he's the most threatening resident he'd have to face, though it's debatable if he could have beaten Dedede since Meta Knight lost to Kirby and Dark Meta Knight, and Dedede supposedly can defeat Dark Meta Knight. There's also the fact that Meta Knight did not appear at all in the Dark Matter trilogy, so he could have also been possessed by Dark Matter offscreen if he made no attempt to fight them off.
>>564864307>Meta Knight could theoretically get the Love-Love StickThat would involve forming friendships with the people he tried to invade, which might've been impossible considering his moniker as a "lone swordsman" like Dark Matter. That might've been the biggest reason he was not present to aid Kirby in the Dark Matter games.
>>564864773>Meta Knight's military preparations were primarily taking Kirby into account as he's the most threatening resident he'd have to faceYou know I've always wondered why Meta Knight stockpiled so much artillery and ammunition like missiles for taking over Dream Land that I never considered it was specifically for Kirby. That must mean Meta Knight probably considers Kirby a credible threat and someone not to be taken lightly compared to how some view Meta Knight as a mentor figure for some reason.
https://x.com/SomeKirbyFan/status/2048429485129650423 Seems like dedede got a new model again
>>564866559I think they’re heading in the right direction but something about him still looks offAnimation is very cute though
>>564865379There's no other reason he'd make such preparations if not to face Kirby. King Dedede is too silly for him to take seriously, so if Kirby wasn't around and he decided to invade, he would've likely underestimated Dedede and lost if he's really one of the strongest life-forms on the planet.
>>564867156I mean just bomb Castle Dedede to the ground then go after Kirby. After all we saw how good Castle Dedede held up in Planet Robobot
>>564867530Kirby, Dedede, and all the bosses who serve him are the only things Meta Knight would have to worry about. What I mean is he might underestimate Dream Land if Kirby didn't present himself as a real threat, and if he didn't get struck down by Kracko and Kabula, he'd certainly lose to Dedede who is nigh invincible.
>>564866559what the fuck
>>564866881Isn't that the same design he's had on Nintendo Today the whole time?
>>564868872CUTE
Actually picrel brings up a good pointHow the fuck old is Adeleine now?Is she a grandma now or something
kbc
>>564868842I think so, same colors and build
>>564869613tardby
>>564871390hot chick heaven
>>564866559Is there some guy at HAL who's job is just to find new possible Dedede designs?
>>564876770There's a whole Dedede Design Division
>>564875002>missing the hottest chickPretty shitty heaven, if you ask me
>>564862692She's probably just off-screen so the wifi still works.
>>564878117See >>564868872
>>564868872I dunno about that. Japan uses that phrase a lot, and not necessarily for things that happen regularly. Sometimes they'll use it for something that's happened for the first time in a series. It could very well just mean that "this time" just means "for this post".
So when do you guys think the next mainline title will come out?
>>564885663When it's done.
>>564885663Assuming it gets announced during the obligatory June Direct, probably early next year.I don't know how to feel about there being 5 years between new main games now, and 4 between Star Allies and Forgotten Land. Kirby games aren't long enough or high-budget enough to justify the wait.
>>564858797>ribbon and elifin next to all the air riders stuffthis makes the sakurai seethe.
DreamWorks should make a Kirby movie
>>564890159Studio Ghibli should make a Kirby movie if they aren't already
>>564890159they are kind of a mixed bag.
>>564890298Still better than Illumination
I can see Chris Sanders directing/writing a Kirby movie desu
>>564890447that's not exactly a high bar.
>>564800915>Im....ugly
>>564858797>"What's an Air Riders?"
>>564890246Miyazaki would burn his studio if he were to do that (or let koreans help on it)
>>564841261That sounds mad interesting, I say you keep working on it. You could also post to a fanfic site since then you could get actual comments encouraging you while you work, but that depends on your tolerance of tumblr-style discourse and culture.
>>564896793if you want a pseudo taste of it I could provide it or you could read a previous thing that I made that should give you an idea of my writing style in the writefag masterpost "waning of slumbering machine world" or "morpho greentexts" though I'd say the thing I'm working on is much more beefy.
fuck fairies
>>564904297In what position?
New plushes
>>564924651
:O
>>564924829Oh shit somebody pissed in Blue's cereal
>>564924651Cappy's hat better be removable>>564924829>WheelieIs this the first time he's gotten a plush? Pretty neat if so, even if it's specifically the Helper design rather than the base one. Wonder how they're gonna handle the shiny fabric.
>>564924651my FARKING hero!
Life's been kicking me in the shins very repeatedly as of late but dammit this place WILL have a 34th anniversary collab, even if the gimmick for it has to be a rerun... At least the background'll feel different from the first GameBoy collab by being BW monochrome instead of shades of green. Should dig up that palette PNG I made in case people do wanna commit to the gimmick again...
>>564932687This time... I'm gonna try dot-art.Can't imagine it'll go well.
>>564932687sounds good
>>564885663Next year for the 35th anniversary.
>>564924651Release date when? Also when the FUCK are they reprinting some of the older ones? Rick needs one bad. Susie and Taranza too.
>>564924651It's just now dawned on me that this is the first time we're getting an official Cappy plush.
>>564954774Certain enemies have barely any official merch. Bronto Burt and Blipper are especially underrepresented compared to how prominent they are in the series.
Why aren’t we more excited for Kirby’s birthday?
When will they turn Plugg into a marketable plushie?
>>564858797>no Dedede or Meta Knight. That's somewhat unusual for them.
>>564879810All the moments in the one image they confirmed Adeleine made are continuations of previous posts from Twitter. I will admit that it is entirely possible she just followed up previous scenarios with her art, but it does seem a bit odd how much her one work matches with the previous posts by design.If nothing else, there's a huge implication that Adeleine knows way more about the world than she lets on.
gm kirby krew
>>564970951He has the proportions of a midget there.
here comes Rick!
>>564948085They’re releasing in July
One year until Kirby’s 35th anniversary!Another huge milestone, do you think they’ll have a third live concert for the series next year? And undoubtedly the next main Kirby game will be out by then
>>564983198Probably, I’m hoping in addition to that, we get a kirby cafe outside of japan, maybe in super nintendo world, also a switch 2 edition of star allies with more dream friends and 60 fps
Waddle knight is getting a remake https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nhLjgJKDPHY

Robobot is certainly not turning a decade old this year (today in Japan), fuck you

OH SHIT, DREAM DISPLAY TODAY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6qzvGCfaJGI
>>564991260>robobot is ten years old>which means the robobot leak thread is ten years old
>>564990213>kirby is a villain
>>564965126I'm genuinely more surprised at the lack of Magolor
>>564990213>not Kirby blowing up part of the moon to make it a crescentlame.
>>565005392>pissing on the moon
>>564997350AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>565005975>t. ranny
>>565011601nah I'm not a troon but you probably are
>>565012840i'm not making trannycube zoomoid references like you though
>>565013518Okay, and?
Post some of the stuff I found cool at the dream display that hasn’t already been posted https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XS9mBPN7tGM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UXt2RwfC4w
>>564997350This is probably the nostalgia speaking, but I kinda miss the hype around Planet Robobot.
Milky Way Wishes but Nova is actually Star Dream and betrays Marx

>>564800915Y'know, I think this is the first time I've seen /kdg/ on page 1. Have this random image I found online since I have nothing else to contribute to the thread.

>>565020314what the FUCK
>>565020314cute
i hate condoms so much
>>565033563Ok Abe
do they come in extra small???
>>565039276this is just slander from the smash thread every kirby fan i know irl has a 6 inch dick minimum, i've checked
>>565016727>picrelwhy did this not happen
>>565039276now they are magnum condom's for my...MAGNUM DOOONG
>>565053287that phase isn't even hard.
>>565054550Kirby fans are bad at vidya, please understand
>>565053287the desperation last attack is still some of the pettiest shit i've seen in a game, even if it's not that complex in actuality
>>565054550In my experience, my nerves get me more than the actual fight.
>>565054790if you have full health you can survive it.>>565054823pretty much every ability in that game has I-frames, the real annoyance is the ship fight since it takes forever and you gotta do it quick to beat the death timer.
>>565061867What is his endgame?
>>565064368according to robobot, spending time on the rainbow island in peace.
>>564858797>>564889602>Sakurai didn't retweet the new official anniversary illustrationWhat a prick
>>565065153He's never retweeted anything with 64 character acknowledgement, why would this surprise you?
Triple Deluxe needs a remake more than Robobot, and I think all it ould really need are some visual changes to the later worlds to make them less generic and fit in with the fary tale motif they were trying to go fr. Robobot is praised for committing to the robot aesthetic and this would really make people like Triple Deluxe more I think.Like, with the lava world, I'd give it a slight Chinese motif, and they could work the lore of dragons in Kirby into it. Nothing big or explicit, just interesting background stuff to tie things better together. Make Pyribbit look a little more cooler too when you fix his boss fight as well.What do you guys think? I think the real issue worlds in this regard would be worlds 3, 4, and 5. 1, 2, and 6 are all fine in terms of art aesthetic and go well witht he fairy tale theme.Also, instead of an epilogue like Magolor got, Taranza should get a prequel, which shows him happy and trying to cheer up his self-conscious girlfriend, how he got the mirror, and how his girlfriend stole the body of the queen with their freaky parasite vampire powers.
>>565065845>the actual Kirby moon is there but sectonia's palace has it's ownwhacky.
>>565065845I disagree with Old Odyssey, it's an epic tale about climbing a mountain with a decent amount of whimsy along the way up. If anything, I think Lollipop Land needs some more expansion; the general idea is sound, but there's not enough connecting the outer candyland with the inner toy factories. Not to mention the lore extensions you could make with the art studio Paintra lurks in.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UmeGn3YoJI4
>>565073294Old Odyssey feels like the worst one to me. I could not tell you what theme it has aside from vague mountains. Its boss is Kracko who, I love Kracko, but Kracko is not going to help sell the identity of that world.
>>565065153I don't recall him retweeting any JP Kirby pics and I'm too lazy to check
>>565055395Pretty sure the last ditch attack ignores i-frames though
