That's it. After looking at the Japanese and English websites, I am most definitely buying this game. It's visually stunning and looks like a blast of a platformer to play.
Also, the main theme sounds very similar to Yakko's Universe.
No idea why.
Heh. The American commercial is kind of funny.
It so, so desperately wants to make Kirby hardcore. "He's not just yarn, he's A TANK!" Oh, poor voice-over guy. It's OK. It's not your fault. This game is cute. It's unapologetically cute. And that's a good thing. Just roll with it, man. Grab a puppy and let it flow through you.

"America had the teenage Deadpan Snarker Tony, while Japan had the hyperactive Idiot Hero Dan. ...This probably says something fairly deep about the cultural differences between the two, but I'll be damned if I know what it is."

Long live Cinematech. FC:0259-0435-4987The part where Kirby just transforms into a car like it ain't no thing sounded like something right out of Axe Cop.
I have a message from another time...Who is this guy narrating the intro?
No, really—who is he? I know I've heard him before!

Is there a co-op game in which some form of assholery isn't possible?
