Kirby’s Adventure

Since the Wii came out with it’s… erm… ‘Revolutionary’ ability to allow you to purchase and download old games for discontinued systems I’ve taken the opportunity to check out some of the games that I missed when they originally made the rounds for one reason or another.

Kirby’s Adventure has you taking control of a pink ball-like guy with the ability to suck up and copy the special abilities of his enemies. He has to use his fantastic abilities to save Dreamland from not having any more dreams. You know, don’t worry about the story. It’s a whole lot more fun to run around the stages and try out the different abilities.

I sailed through this game pretty quickly. It wasn’t too tough… until the last boss fight. Well, boss fights. There are three final boss fights, each more final than the last. Even better is that the last couple of boss fights ramp up the difficulty so far that your controller might get broken. Unless you paid $40 for a Wii Remote. In which case I suggest you go to your local used video game store, pick up a couple of used and/or already broken controllers, and take your anger out on them.
