Introduction
Kirby is the character that like Mario, Sonic and Lara Croft has gained great fame from its strangeness. This is something that Nintendo have thrived from, Kirby has been carried down a long line of games and is probably recognized by most as a character in Super Smash Brothers on the N64 and GC who can suck people in and henceforth inherit their powers. This wasn't an idea created in that game, this idea was put in Kirby's first debut (Well for the Western World) on the NES.
Story
Well basically this asshole called King Dedede Stopped the inhabitants of Dream Land from dreaming. He did this by breaking apart the star rod and giving it to his evil chums.
Game play
The game play is very exciting and very original. All Kirby can do is suck in people and do some really simple attack moves. This is until our pink little marshmallow-like friend has an enemy with a special ability inside him! By pressing down you inherit the enemy's characteristics and you can do amazing things! For example you can become a ball or a UFO, you can blow fire and ice and you can even turn into an invincible rock. There's much more as well! It really is an amazing game. It's easy but you probably won't care because it's so fun.
Another thing about this game is ala Mario Brothers 3 it's enormous! Each level is accessed via platforms, whilst going on different levels various minigames are also available. Some of these are very fun and feel like something out of the game and watch series on GB, GBC and GBA. Some are addictive whereas some are tedious, like all of the game it's all different. New worlds feel fresh and new and the game makes you want to complete it, it's easy enough anyway.
Graphics
The graphics probably do end up using all of the colours in the NES's vast palette. Although the levels are normally quite bland looking and based around one main colour, e.g. cream. I think this is because the game is so huge.
But the sprites...woah. The enemies look cool, they're mainly circular little things which are cute yet must be smashed. And of course the thing for doing this is the well -animated Kirby who looks good in all his various forms. My favourite being the sword, he just looks super cool.
Another thing to point out about the graphics is that simply they're unique. They will look original for years to come. The style mainly focuses around cutesiness, curves and circles. Even the final boss sparkles!
Sound
The sound like the graphics and other ideas of the game is original. The sounds are of course loveable, even though Kirby is cute he's extremely violent. When people get hit they bounce across the screen. The sound effects that accompany this sound great and you get more into the game. It takes a lot to make you feel that you're beating the crap out of a small ball whilst possessing a marshmallow with legs! Yet the game pulls it off.
The music doesn't let the game down luckily, it sounds good and it didn't annoy me with an obvious repeated ness or something along those lines. The music fits the game nicely and the levels already glorified in their curved goodness are finished of nicely with a great NES score!
Final Verdict
This game uses everything to fit together to make an amazing game. In my opinion this is one of the NES legends. It's easily comparable to Super Mario Bros. 3. I feel this due to the length and the original graphics, sound and game play style. It just shows to me that lots of effort was put into this brilliant game








How to Play
This game rocks. Hopefully you've decided to play it. Firstly you'll need to download Little John which is an amazing NES emulator. Then you'll need to put this in GPMM and create a folder called "NES". In this folder you will put in the Kirby rom which can be zipped. I can't tell you where to get this from because of board policies but PM'in’ is fun and Google is great!
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed reading my review and I hope you enjoy playing Kirby. Have fun on this brilliant game, like me!
