Many Wii games do not hold up well, and Nintendo’s recent “Remakes” have not been amazing. They’re basically just $60 ports. However, this one looks different. Let’s check out Kirby’s Return to Dreamland Deluxe.
   
   So as Kirby and friends are lollygagging around, a giant spaceship called the Lor Starcutter crashes down. Inside, an alien named Magolor is sad, because his ship broke and the parts are scattered around Kirby’s homeworld, Dreamland. Kirby decides to help, and they set out on an adventure.
   
   It’s a 2D Kirby game, at its core. Your goal is to make it to the goal while collecting secrets. If you’re new, Kirby can jump indefinitely. He can also suck up and spit out enemies. Some, he can absorb and gain their abilities. There are 2 brand-new ones: Mecha and Sand. Mecha turns Kirby into a cyborg, and it’s a lot of fun to use. Sand is my favorite ability. It’s so versatile. All the levels are accommodated for them, and they were never broken. The level design is amazing. They are a good length, but never drag on. There are many mechanics and they are never cumbersome. In fact, no level was poorly designed. Also, the bosses are very good. So 10/10 gameplay. It isn’t very innovative, but it’s still a lot of fun to play, and it’s very clean and easy to use.
   
   With the graphics, a big thing is that all the characters are cell-shaded. It’s hard to notice during gameplay and it looks very good. The backgrounds and textures are gorgeous, and the game runs at a smooth 60 fps. The graphics are bright and colorful. When I saw a loop-de-loop rainbow, I fell in love with the presentation. As for the music, it has a special Kirby-sound font that I really love. 10/10 presentation. I guess someone could not like the cell-shadedness, but it has an amazing presentation.
   
   There are 3 main modes in my opinion. The main story, a minigame collection called Merry Magoland and the Magolor Epilogue. There are 3-5 collectibles per level, and there are many levels. There’s a harder mode after the main story, and 2 boss rush modes. There are also the Kirby staples like the extra games (If you haven’t already, play Forgotten Land), the jukebox and theater.Merry Magoland is a minigame collection. It gives me heavy Nintendo Land vibes. There are 120 missions to complete, and you can get masks to wear during it and the story. Finally, the Magolor epilogue stars Magolor after the story. He’s lost all of his powers and you need to collect coin-like things in order to get them back. You can do this by getting combos while defeating enemies. This is my favorite part of the whole package. It adds some much needed progression to the Kirby formula. I really like Magolor, and it’s great to see him get more development. It even ties into the spin-offs! Also, all of the modes are playable with up to four players. This will take you a while, so don’t be worried about it being over too fast. 10/10 on the content.
   
   This remake hovered above and beyond my expectations. I really do recommend it. I’d say it’s the best 2D platformer on the Switch! Please check out Kirby’s Return to Dreamland Deluxe.
   
   I hope you have a great day!… Expand

   Incredibly boring 2D platformer. You fight the same minibosses 200 times and most of the powerups are redundant and superfluous. I guess it'sIncredibly boring 2D platformer. You fight the same minibosses 200 times and most of the powerups are redundant and superfluous. I guess it's a good game for children but if you're a grownup you're probably going to fall asleep. Also, it's another Wii remaster being sold at full price, which is a BS business practice by Nintendo.… Expand
