Kirby Star Allies was a disappointment, but how does the No. 1 Kirby fan come to embrace that? Join Anthony in the first installment of "Sleeping With The Enemy".
Developer HAL Laboratory explains how the creation of Kirby Star Allies paved the way for Kirby and the Forgotten Land.
BLG writes: "Kirby has been a Nintendo staple since he was first introduced on the Gameboy in 1992 so ranking the best Kirby games is no easy task. Created by Masahiro Sakurai and HAL Laboratory, the little pink puff-ball has made an appearance on every Nintendo console and handheld. While there are over 30 games with Kirby’s name attached, we’re only going to rank the 17 main storyline games."
HAL Laboratory’s Shinya Kumazaki opened up about the making of Kirby Star Allies in a recently-released art book for the game. Kumazaki discussed when development began (planning was actually before the launch of Planet Robobot), the previous absence of Kirby side-scrollers on consoles, and more.
It was a terrible game. Way too easy.
