As I've said numerous times in the past, this upcoming massive free update for Kirby Star Allies is presumed to be its last. It's going to be a doozy though as it sports Susie, Taranza, Magolor, and all three Mage-Sisters -- the secondary a...

It's sad that the DLC train for Kirby Star Allies is coming to an end soon, but I soldier on nonetheless. I will hold out hope that this is the future model for all Kirby games going forward: nearly a year of free DLC. I'm probabl...

Will the free Kirby: Star Allies DLC ever stop? Sure. But for now it's going strong and will host Taranza, Kirby's frenemy from Triple Deluxe in the near future. Her intro trailer is short and sweet, beginning with a quick Triple ...

Have you ever wondered what it might be like to be swallowed up by Nintendo's adorable platforming pal, Kirby? Well, apparently its very relaxing, if these images are anything to by. These models are demonstrating the therapeutic benefits o...

On this day 15 years ago, Kirby’s racing spinoff -- now a cult classic among GameCube owners -- hit store shelves in North America. Despite being based around familiar conventions, there hasn’t been anything quite like it since....

After being announced in September's Nintendo Direct video, Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn was listed on Nintendo of America's official website as a "New 3DS" exclusive game. Why a port of an eight-year-old Wii title would require the New 3DS is b...

Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn might have extra requirements when it launches in 2019 on 3DS. While the Nintendo Direct merely announced that the Wii port with extras was coming to their 3DS portable line, their official website has since been upd...

Kirby Star Allies has found a way, much like life itself, onto my TV screen on a consistent basis since its launch in March of this year. It's not just a fantastic replayable platformer: it's also been somewhat steadily supported by DLC for...

Daroach satisfies most of the required elements of a memorable Kirby villain. He's menacing but still mostly cute, stylish, and colorful. He might not have starred in the most popular Kirby game (2006's Squeak Squad), bu...

Daroach was always kind of an unsung villain in the Kirby universe. I mean Squeak Squad isn't a marquee Kirby game for one, but I always dug his blazing magician design. Now he's getting his due in Kirby Star Allies as a...

[Update: The second wave is now confirmed by Nintendo.] Kirby Star Allies is a short romp, like most Kirby games, but the meat is in its ability to entice you with multiple playthroughs. That's a lot easier to get on board with given that N...

I don’t say this nearly enough, but my mom is the absolute best. She’s simply wonderful. She’s easy to shop for, she doesn’t have time for any of that emotional bullshit, and she always knows how to make her kids fee...

I'm happy to see that the reception for Kirby Star Allies has been mostly positive, as it's a great return to console form after such a long hiatus for the series.  Although it didn't monumentally shake up the franchise (it is Kirby&nb...
