In fairness, Return to Dream Land and Triple Deluxe are both clear descendants of Kirby 64. I just hope that they're building up to a new Dark Matter invasion, now... I mean, we've had the Marx-esque shenanigans and a big, scary intruder, so is something even bigger and scarier next?
I was thinking about this yesterday, funnily enough. Even though I loved Air Ride, I'd be fine with a new Kirby racer/crazyfest that's not in the same vein, and is a bit more conventional than Air Ride, too. I was playing Mario Kart 7 online (it seems that they've fixed the server instability, now
), and it occurred to me that it would be thoroughly awesome to race through Castle Dedede, complete with music that's a remix of the great penguin king's ever-awesome theme tune.
