  • Kirby's Super Nintendo run was packed, especially with spinoffs with Kirby Super Star taking three years to follow up on Kirby's Adventure. But the wait was worth it! In this Origin Oracle, I'll take a deeper dive than usual into each Kirby game during his SNES days and see what we can uncover about these series of Kirby games, his new enemies, and the evolution of the Kirby gameplay.

    Fun fact about Dream Land 3, it’s not just Samus making cameos from other series, but plenty of other characters too. The most recognisable ones nowadays besides Samus is probably R.O.B. the SNES accessory and Professor Hector from Gyromite, although R.O.B. is much more well known as a fighter in Smash now.
    Like a lot of things in the Kirby series, none of these cameos are ever explained, but I like to think of them as something similar to the Dream Friends in Star Allies, where Kirby breaks the fourth wall to summon characters from other games to help him.

      This was one of the only Super Nintendo games that I was able to get brand new in stores. I got my SNES (Jr) new in Christmas of 1998. So I remember being taken to Hills and I picked this out because I liked the cover. I was like 5 years old at the time, but I still remember this magical experience.

    Kirby's SNES and Game Boy games were a big part of my childhood. And yes, I played a lot of 2-player Dream Course with my dad, I mastered the UFO powerup and used it to take all the stars and sink the hole. I'd use my powerups to make my dad fall asleep and lose a turn. I sure knew how to play dirty.

    Having grown up in the DS and Wii era, Superstar Ultra was my introduction to Kirby. And I have to agree that both the original and the remake (Which, that Mansion mode still wasn't implemented in. Missed opportunity.) are perfect 10s of games.

    When you do get into the lore stuff (which began proper under the latest director), I think it'll be very important to take into account the meta-history of the series, as a lot of worldbuilding and character arcs are the newer team paying homage to random earlier details in the series. I hope once you get to the modern era you see that love that HAL has for Kirby's legacy, it's my favorite aspect of the series, and as you said, existed even from the beginning with how packed full of detail and polish the early games are! The "lore" is kinda just a product of that love being explored through a pretty eccentric new director lol.
