I'm pretty sure Nintendo said September a while back, but I don't think they've gotten any more specific than that.

Is this in limited numbers like the Mario one?

There's an actual date, they said it in the NA Nintendo Direct last night. Its September something. 16th? I can't remember. They said it though.

It was September 16th according to Game Informer.

I got it right?

What's your favorite game being offered in this collection? Mine is Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. The combining powers mechanic was awesome. It's between Kirby 64 and Kirby's Epic Yarn for my favorite Kirby game ever.

Kirby Super Star definitely for me.

I actually haven't played Kirby Super Star yet, so my opinion may change. I'm happy that I get to play it and the three Dream Land games for the first time.

I played Kirby 64 with my friend and it was quite fun combining powers. Kirby Super Star Ultra on DS took care of my need for that game. I'm also looking forward to playing Kirbys Dreamland 3.

Kirby's Adventure is both my favorite game in the collection and my favorite Kirby game overall (with Canvas Curse as a respectable second).

And I've always had a soft spot for Kirby 64, even though it's usually considered one of the lesser entries. It was my first Kirby game and I loved the combo powers gimmick; the Refrigerator and the Double-Bladed Laser Sword are two of my favorite powers in the series.

Kirby's Adventure is great too!

Yeah the thing is. I already have 2 of these games. (I already mentioned this before I think)

So I'm not sure if I'm getting this. I don't have the money. Especially since I'm saving up for a Wii U.

I have two of the games as well, but that won't stop me. I had all the games in the Mario All Stars collection but I still bought that.

I've only Played Dreamland, Adventure and Epic Yarn and my favorite would probably have to go to....Epic Yarn, but by a hair.
Dreamland brings back loads of GameBoy Brick nostalgia, while Adventure i found was more enjoying on the 3DS because of the stereoscopic 3D effect rather than the NES version which for some reason didn't exactly tickle my kirby fancy.

Anthologies can be evil though. There's nothing worse than plowing through a franchise one by one...You get sick of it too fast because of the sequal overdose. it's best to break these titles up with different games. With that said, this is easily the most gorgeous looking Collection out there....Effort was actually put into this one unlike the Mario Anniversay for the Wii or even the Mega Man Anniversary collection.

@Waveboy It's kind of funny though because I own the Mega Man Anniversary Collection and i've played through the whole collection twice without a break. Maybe Mega Man is just different for me but this collection is looking great and i'm excited.

Meh... I had already downloaded, "Kirby's Adventure," on my Wii awhile ago. Also, I recently downloaded, "Kirby Super Star," technically for free. I'd rather just download, "Kirby's Dreamland 3," on my Wii. Then I could complete the rest of the collection, by downloading Kirby's Dreamland 1 & 2 on my 3DS. I don't have any interest in, "Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards," or any of the bonus content. Although, it is definitely a nice addition. I just prefer to play all of these Kirby titles the way they were designed to be played, on their respective platforms. Kirby titles are also much more enjoyable on a handheld, in my opinion. I just don't believe Kirby's Dreamland 1 & 2 would provide the same natural and authentic retro experience on a home console. They sure as hell wouldn't if they're visually enhanced like, "Super Mario All-Stars," was.

I'm still planning to buy this, even though I own the whole series already, some of the games even in multiple formats.

I have all of the games except Dream Land 2 and I even have two versions of Kirby's Adventure and Kirby Super Star, but I'm still getting this collection just for the soundtrack. I got the Mario collection even though I still had the original All-Stars kart, so of course I'm going to be partial to a collection if at least a soundtrack comes with it. I love video game music.

@NintyFan, that seems to be our common interest. I love video game music as well. I might get this for christmas, I don't know.

I'd rather get the GBA and DS remakes of Kirby's adventure and Kirby super stat respectively but I haven't got any of the other four games in this collection so I think I will pick this up.

I already downloaded kirby's dreamland 3 and kirby 64 and the crystal shards on my wii and I still have the original dreamland's cardtridge with a working gameboy player. I also have 3D classics kirby's adventure on my 3ds and I can always download super star if I want to so I don't know if I want this just for the extra levels and free music. BUT, if it came with a custom wiimote I will get it.
