Kirby's Dream Land (GB)

Let me be the FIRST to say that this game rocks!!

Why the heck is Kirby WHITE on the box art?!?

Because he's also white in the game?...
This is the first appearance of Kirby and as it's a GB game they had the choice of making him white or black, so consider us lucky he didn't turn out to be black.

I remember being like 5 years old and feeling SO accomplished that I beat King Dedede. Good times.

this makes me wanting they would put gb and gbc games on the VC
if that ever happens, i'll buy this one no doubt

One of the easiest games ever. Still fun, though.

Coming out this thursday for EU? Wahoo!

Yeah, it is fun. Everyone will complete it many times over and still enjoy playing it.

This thursday!! Yes!! The first Kirby.

@Kurachi Do you have psychic powers? o.O

Woo! Can't wait, never played it before. Why did they add a extra 60 cents though?

It's ashame that Kirby can't steal enemies' powers in this game. He controls just like Kirby NES, he can float, inhale foes, and spit out stars, but when I hit down to absorb an enemy, he just swallows them whole without absorbing any special abilities. Yes, there are a number of powerups in the game, but what I loved most about NES Kirby is stealing abilities. It's just not present in the Game Boy version. Still a great game though!

i have posted this before somewhere else but is this game almost the same as spring breeze from kirby superstar because it seems to be

Regardless of lacking Kirby's awesome trademark ability to steal enemy's powers, this is a pretty good game.
While Kirby games have a reputation for being "easy," this one actually feels a li'l more challenging to me, I remember having alot of trouble with the final boss, and for those who want an even greater challenge when you beat the game you'll be given a "cheat" code to unlock the "hard" mode. Hard mode is actually quite fun to, and worth a shot for Kirby vetrans.

You found it challenging @Beau_Skunk? I remember buying this the week it came out in '92. I completed the game in under 40 minutes, on a car ride with my mother. lol (<:
