* GameBreaker: The Spark ability in this game is ''brutal.'' It combines the pervious incarnations of spark we've seen so far with plasma from KirbySuperStar. The fact that you can get to full charge in about two seconds by shaking the wiimote cements this- as does the fact that the fully charged blast deals ''ludicrous'' damage to just about anything. It can take down the FinalBoss in less than a minute.

* GameBreaker: The Spark ability in this game is ''brutal.'' It combines the pervious incarnations of spark we've seen so far classic Spark (hold down attack to erect an electric force-field) with plasma from KirbySuperStar. The fact that KirbySuperStar Plasma's charged-shot mechanic. Unlike KSS, however, where you had to charge by mashing the D-Pad in various directions, you can get to full charge in about two seconds KRTD's Spark by shaking the wiimote cements this- as does Wiimote, which can quickly and easily fully charge the shot - combined with the fact that the fully charged blast deals ''ludicrous'' damage to just about anything. It anything, it can take down even the FinalBoss in less than a minute.minute. That is, of course, assuming your wrists don't get sore from waggling while dodging attacks.
** Water deserves mention as well, notably it's dash attack. Although it doesn't seem like much at first (Kirby rides a wave forward, with no way to control/stop it until it ends a short distance away), Kirby is ''literally invincible'' during the entire attack, meaning you can just coast through anything, from giant boulders to the final bosses' huge lasers. The other attacks aren't bad either; you can shoot a geyser straight up to hit flying bosses, or send blobs of water across the ground with unlimited range. Still, the dash attack is just ridiculous.

* CrowningMomentOfAwesome: In the last leg of the last level, you're given an Ultra Sword in a room filled with minibosses. As if [[CurbStompBattle effortlessly destroying almost every miniboss in the game]] wasn't awesome enough, to complete the level you have to cut a volcano in half.
