New Kirby game coming to Wii, and he’s NOT made of string

Nintendo has announced, seemingly from out of the blue, a brand new Kirby game. It’ll be on the Wii and will feature a more “traditional” Kirby, having left behind his woolen adventures in Kirby’s Epic Yarn. 

The game doesn’t have an official title, but you can check out a brief (and very tiny) video clip here. As you can see, this is a traditional Kirby game, complete with enemy suckage and transformations. Kirby appears to be able to pull off ridiculously powerful special moves as well. 

So … this is basically the best news I’ve heard all week.
