Topic: Kirby and the Rainbow Curse - OT

It's adorable. I cannot wait. I loved Canvas Curse.

Technically it's not a "new" spin-off since...well, it's based on a game originally released on the DS....

Oh wait, it's not a remake! It's a sequel. Huh. Kinda didn't expect that. Might look into it. The first could've been good, but I found it frustrating to use the DS' touch screen, but the Wii U Gamepad might make things easier simply from having a bigger and more responsive screen.

Kirby Super Rainbow. I like that name better than Kirby and the Rainbow Paintbrush.. Box art is amazing, I'm glad Europe usually gets the same box art as the Japanese version.

I would be even more glad if the European was released approximately at the same time as the Japanese release.

It's still just scheduled for ''2015'', right? As long as it's coming during the first half of 2015 I won't complain.

2nd half of 2015 for Europe, according to the recent UK Nintendo Direct. (February 2015 for NoA.)

At about 20:50 in this clip:

Actually it has been slated for a 2nd Half release since the Twitter pic showing off the schedule. It's just made worse by having the NA release in Febuary

I like to think that it's a Kirby cake, because it looks majorly edible.

Too bad, no wonder I didn't want to remember that. Fortunately, 2015 is packed full of games I'm interested in.

Inb4 American Kirby is hardcore

I'll make this easy:
Japan: January
North America: February
Europe: Second Half of 2015

Oh darn I don't mind the wait but why release the game at different times? Surely if the game is finished it makes more sense to release it at the same time? I can understand a delay between Japan and the rest of the world for localization etc but I can't see a reason for a delay of that length between North America and Europe.

If I had to guess, I'd assume it's because Captain Toad comes out in Europe in January, so they can afford to save a space later in the year for Kirby.

Ah I see thank you I didn't know North America got it slightly earlier than Europe. Amazon are stating the 2nd of January for Toad shame as I would have liked it as a Christmas gift.

February 13, 2015

US release date. Cool!

Also, next year when the game comes out, will be exactly 10 years since the first game came out. To celebrate here's this:

Is "NintendoConsoleGaming" even legit? Sounds like a Chinese knockoff site.
