#Kirby RtDL Deluxe Leaks/Datamines
1 messages · Page 9 of 1
I do wonder though, ||if morpho knight does show up since magolor has a high chance of being in Hades, would Galacta be in Hades too or did Morpho just completely assimilated him into itself?||
this covers reminds me
i went back to play rtdl
and man
the cutscenes in the og are WAY stiffer than i remembered!!
like half of the scenes are just the main cast just standing there
Honestly, I'm really happy how expressive the main squad has been recently
Their facial animations have improved a lot
in house cutscenes id imagine
If we follow the timeline of Return To Dreamland → Guest Star → Forgotten Land and assume that Morpho as a Knight was born from Galacta Knight and Forgo Dreams has continuity from Guest Star, then Morpho as a Knight doesn't exists in the timeframe of ||Magolor Epilogue||, unless Galacta were to get Morphoed there
I say this while making a lot of assumptions that aren't nowhere near confirmed lol
the squad :)
WOO!
also dedede's pupils arent nearly as small as people are saying lol
they are just not gigantic like in the original
||So what you're saying is there's a chance we still see Galacta
||
thinking about
that they probably WILL make new pre rendered cutscenes
esp since they are in house
Meta Knight is so blank in rtdl cutscenes
the landia one is really bad
No thoughts, head empty
I hope they make the scene of him laughing at the very end a little more expressive
The most they do is fight off revolution orbs in that one cutscene
I always found that weirdly cute
Yeah
i think landia in rtdl in general is kinda generic
i like how they look in clash though
Hell yeah
what was the inside cover for KSA & KatFL again
KSA was the damn manual
FL was kirby riding on the bridge from the opening
KSA was just basic actions
in car mouth
lmfao oh yeah
tbh manuals started to go boring around wii era anyways sadly
rtdl's manual is
Lol
Ok so ||now that the leak is confirmed real I wonder if we could get a clearer look at Magolor Epilogue||
looking at it its looks like ultra's huh
Kumazaki manuals just suck lets be real lol
common shimomura w
seriously this manual is a blast
P L A N E T
P l a n e t
Ayo who put peak in my Kirby AGAIN
HAL labs
amogus
SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP
Finally..
The kirby afterlife
real
omg
real
wow it's Breath of the Wild
we will most likely continue where Super Kirby Clash left of with ||Galact Knight||. ||He got sealed back in his crystal which perfectly goes back how he appeared sealed in RTDL so i the remake he can break out from his crystal yet again.||
THE LEAK IS REAL
Just checked game stop lol
So apparently it’s been here the whole time
My camera sucks unfortunately
this image is even worse
to be honest
ok ok ok but could you read it
||We talked about this yesterday but Kumazaki mentioned in the Super Kirby Clash Channel how Aeon Hero (Dark) will wander in「冥界」(Meikai) now and that he may descend on「どこかの世界」"some world" (Merry Magoland's also described as some world interestingly enough)||
printing quality can only do so much
What is that? Forgo language?
that's french
Fry on the RTDX mission
i’m so happy it’s been confirmed
This is one of the Magoland missions
Ok upon further inspection its literally impossible to read yeah

Only thing I could get was ||what if I could bekwoqbwhdi unintelligible||
||"What if I could [UNINTELLIGIBLE]? That would help me get my powers back a little quicker."||
the funny
That was even harder to read
Yeah literally
Anyway the box is just randomly available to be seen?
At least this looks pretty cool
I like how this ||mode|| that literally hasn’t been revealed yet has been on the back all this time lol
Gender
Lmao yeah
that is EXTREMELY funny
It's just in the public like that lmfao
Fucking GameStop
We need a trailer lol
I don’t think I can last until next week
Do we have the binary
On second thought I have a Spanish exam on Tuesday. Can we get a few more days
Boxart , autocorrect mess it up
lol
it's not even on the japanese site
i wonder if gamestop is to blame or HAL being slow as fuck with advertising
id say, mix of both
GameStop literally leaked this didn’t they lol
HAL building up hype carefully
vs
Us immediately pouncing on anything new that fell on the floor
thnks gamestop
why the fuck did gamestop have to die here man
i wish i could go to my ex local gamestop and potentially check this back cover
the kirby fandom goes to look at a gamecase
Kirby fans looking at the game case on the table:
im eating crumbs
touchs the display box to feel something
God we are like ants
The moment one of us even gets a hint of food, even if it's not even substantial and probably doesn't exist...
We just go nuts
Just absolutely congregate around it
Bring the best camera on earth
At some point someone is going to catch wind of this and then we get sprayed on
now that i think abt it i probably looked weird taking photos of a game-
FRY I'M COMING TO YOUR HOUSE
Tell the cashier that you were taking pics for your little brother or something
Not as weird as this game’s marketing! GOTTEM!!!!!
The single Gamestop employee fighting off the Kirby fans who came to look at a display box:
Guys I'm sorry, I'm a fake fan
What is the song remixed on the egg catch minigame?

we need a demo god
The mid boss theme from Adventure
Yes that's what we will very likely be the ||final boss of Hades||
badum tsssch
the 1 gamestop employee fighting off waves of kirby fans trying to break into the back room
touches the box to feel powerful
Kirby marketing is so funny
A major announcement is just anticlimactically found at GameStop
"Hey no that's for staff only"
I'm sorry, you think you can hide the answer to the universe behind a cash register?
While I'm here I would like to purchase all of your Kirby inventory
Kirby fans pretending to be surprised at ||Magolor Epilogue|| when it’s announced at the direct. (People already knew about it beforehand)
gamestop
im playing kirby 64
gamestop kun
It can keep your mind distracted for long enough
They should really just reveal ||Magolor Epilogue|| now like when Kirby Fighters 2 got leaked
With that said I'm starving I should like eat something
Not a leak, more like it was released on the EShop too early
Or partially
they should put the info on the japanese website allready
Same with Forgotten Land
I can't believe Forgotten Land would leak right before the direct started
btw i played dumb asked the employee if they had it in stock to see if i could get it early, it obviously wasnt but it was worth a shot
Smooth
I just go check the trash, surely there's a defective case
next week it is
I'll see when they start unloading cartridges
Then when they aren't looking I snatch a case
i tried doing that with pokemon violet that had there copies out early
target said no
maybe if you live by a mom and pop game store
Me when the game leaks early and I spoil everything
And post them through an alt account, here on r/Kirby. Nobody will ever know
With that said I can't drive and gamestop is far away, so I can't legit do this
kirby display box fancam
Mfs be plotting misdemeanors in the leak chat
How to go to jail in 3 easy steps:
And jeopardize the reputation you worked hard to improve and build up: The novel
But seriously I legit can't pull schemes
Magolor Epilogue is 2 minutes
You son onf a gun
So now that we know the leak is real…now what do we do
we wait..
The sad state
Of the Kirby fandom
Look at yourselves
Consumed by greed
Surely you would not commit crimes just for a backbox image right
the real haltmann works company is the kirby fan inside of you
I would probably eat someone elses breakfast just to get it
your honor when i broke into the back room and stole 23 copies of Kirby's Return to Dreamland Deluxe i was simply trolling
I'm going to mentally time travel to the future
I will learn how to time travel
Anyways so basically a lot of things happen
I will not use the time machine for the benefit of society
You fight a secret boss
Time Machines never benefit society
I have seen movies
Anyways you meet some characters
I will tell the Mother 64 Dev team to not bother with the n64 dd
You get character development
There's like a cool moment that makes you go "HEY I KNOW THAT"
There's closure
||You end up in Hades instead. You look at yourself. Your clothes are grey. There's a yellow clone of you above you, and a monster in front. You became the thing you wanted the most. You are now Magolor Epilogue||
Magolor closes his bank account
Banger remixes
Uhm, ok there's a dating simulator for some reason...
But character development amiright?
Ok now it's in 3D what the hell
Who can be dated
Sadly despite having an initially large roster, the game in the end forces you to engage with just one person
Just that person
Better be dooter
It will go out of its way to ensure this ending, maybe even kill a character if need be
Anyways there are FPS segments where you engage in ancient warfare
And then later on you have to play Dance Dance Revolution with gooey
5 letters????????
Marx shows up and will ruin the dating simulator sections
a playable bingo? most acceptable
And then we kill Marx
But then it turns out I was seeing an alternate universe and not the future sorry guys
the most sane bingo i've seen about this game so far
I'll save the 15 letter bingo and see if I actually manage to get anything close to a full line lol
didnt even consider the possibility of bad ending but that would be raw honestly
Everything that happens is canon
The branches will converge
But only one can rule over them all in the end
Magolor fails to understand why what he did is shitty and is not worthy enough to be granted a second chance in life
(Worst timeline possible)
Sectonia lives
Ok so Kirby never has a concrete timeline
At least when it comes to other games
So you know...
We could uh... ||Bring characters back from the dead||
Or: magolor does realize but he gets killed again in hell
Only ones before RTDL’s release
Fuck
||Hey maybe this explains how Marx is alive lol||
||Bro hitched a trip from hell with his boyfriend apparently||
that'd explain how they know eachother
||Sectonia may or may not have died yet but if we're dimension hopping we can at least uh... bring a clone of her along the way||
||Same goes with Haltmann||
||Well Marx would have had to meet him before this right since Mags knew about kibley before the game happened||
But considering that MagoLand is like, canon... and considering certain cameos in the game...
||if PR's true arena isn't canon that means there's still like 5% of his soul left right||
Magolor was told by ribbon
Not marx
||I mean hey maybe this takes place after TDX’s main story and leads to Dedede’s Drum Dash Deluxe lol||
tbh i do genuinely wonder if epilogue ends up having any fully original boss fights that are focused on bringing back fanservicey characters that aren't the knights.
Nah I can't find good evidence nvm
Improbable inconeuvaavnel
lowkey theorizing drawcia as the most plausible because kumazaki bias and she has a mask in the game so they got a 3d model of her somewhere
drum dash takes place in magolor's theme park attraction
he built it specifically for dedede
Some park in some world 
Actually he made a park for both Kirby and dedede specifically huh lmao
This mode CHANGED him
this mode will make him go "man how could i do this to kirby and dedede"
"fuck bandana dee and meta knight tho."
"they get nothing"
Lmaoo
Metaknight got a VR game
I do wonder how much they'll play into that though
Since Kirby really only does that stuff implicitly
Finally break the ice lmao
No Metaknight got a ROM Hack of games where it's just him
Not implicitly but they don't usually have characters talk about changing
They just do it through their actions
with magolor its almost inevitable that they will at least show it here
maybe he wont say it but like
maybe they will do a scene where he solemnly looks into the distance or something
this would honestly be worth more than anything he can say
i hope it gets new cinematics
oh man there is
actually one bit of characterization that kumazaki shared before
where magolor SINCERELY wants to be friends with them
Yeah he's like VERY sorry
is this his worst punishment? being forced to fight with people who he does see as friends?
that would go hard ngl
I want to see Magolor be in absolute shambles crying and puking out of pure misery and regret
||They turn out to be crocodile tears
||
magolor is obsessed with being friends now 💀
I think even in rtdl he does actually think they're nice people iirc
: I smell sodium
tbh thing is that magolor has no choice but to be sincere because he has no one to lie to lol
hes alone in hell
papi:
I'm coming for that salty salty tear drops
me when papi get canonized and he gets renamed to something else and fanbase dies instantly
Actually yeah I wonder if he'll just be completely alone here
ikr
Whonthe duck is papi
Jeffrey
Sectonia, Nightmare Wizard, Haltmann, Zero and Zero 2: 
i kinda hope that he will be because it will just add to the overall vibe
like idk maybe im reading too much into that little corner of the box but
it feels almost melancholic
Yeah I kind of want him to be alone
Pappy Van Poodle
dw he's not alone he's got his 3 other multicolored clones
This post game from just the little box alone sets a decently somber tone
So I hope the mode reflects that a little lol
i very much doubt sectonia and haltmann will be there unless HAL will decide "lets completely fuck around and find out"
yeah its like
it doesnt have bombastic title like HEROES IN ANOTHER DIMENSION
Now that doesn't mean I want sad piano hell no whip out that guitar
its Magolor Epilogue
The fact that it's just called that is so weird lmao
Yeah it's neat
Watch it have other name in jp
its probably a bit different
maybe a bit more raw
something like. Magolor Requiem lol
The Amazing Adventures of Traveller Magolor in Hell
i think it's gonna be kinda tragic
Will they do away with menus and rely on hub worlds for modes?
I'm really looking forward to what this offers. Magolor being playable and having a slightly altered extra mode was a hope for me and they BLEW IT OUT OF THE WATER based on sheer concept alone
oh yeah we dont even know about the main menu lmao
Ok hear me out
||Magolor meets Papi and is guided by him, who promises to help him escape hell, convinces him to fight Morpho and then Papi betrays Magolor and takes Morpho's powers and becomes a blue Morpho Knight. Magolor gets a taste of its own medicine. In the end turns out Papi did this on purpose so Magolor would understand the pain he caused on others||
It will never happen but
The LOR could be a hub for challenges or Story Content
Magoland is the Minigames + Postgame Challenges + Arenas
||canon papi would be awesome||
||Blue Morpho would be like, actually cool||
YOU ||BUILD UP MAGOLOR AS IF YOU FIX UP LOR STARCUTTER||
EVIL PAPI WILL BE REAL
||Magolor Epilogue - The Interdimensional Traveler||
AND THEN ||FINAL BOSS TAKES IT ALL AWAY FROM YOU||
JUST LIKE IN THE STORY MODE
ITS PERFECT
blue and orange are opposites on the colour wheel 
i want a scene in this where magolor just emotionally breaks down
this is what Mie was cooking all along the novel was all buildup to this
they cooked
reminder that the novel was released in 2020
imagine if ||Blue Morpho was real
and Magolor absorbs it back to become Blue||
Kumazaki very much probably had something like this on his mind by then
It would be cool if morpho had his EX scheme for his regular battle if it takes place in Hades, since it makes sense that he would be stronger there
RAWWWW

god. now i want this more than anything
i am a connector of dots. but i cannot create good dots on my own
Shadow Morph
this mode actually has a chance to make Magolor a character of all time (aka about as good as Dedede in my eyes which would be a high compliment on my part)
||Magolor on his way to become the most fucking baddass character in the whole series for escaping hell in the most metal way possible||
yes
why wouldn't it
entire game has in-house pre rendered cutscenes
and i now understand why
not just to stay faithful. but to make more of them
like i said while i love pretty cinematics of recent games they are probably mad expensive which is why theres barely any of them anymore
(Extra mode is just an extended version of an existing cutscene that is a recreation of the marx soul transformation sequence)
now they dont have this restriction
Imagine Magolor is guided by like a dove or some shit and that bird just becomes Galacta lmao
i'm expecting to see ||magalor waking up in hades and looking around|| as an opening cutscene. also, would this have/need a hubworld too? like the lor?
i kinda doubt it
Also this
at least from how it was phrased
Nope it's 3D now for some reason
it seems like a linear narrative
this could just be promo but i hope it isnt
ok one important question
||who the hell is papi||
May not make sense either
There’s no way they do something like this and not have him normally playable in 4p that would just be false advertising straight up imo
Ywah who they
Wait what it Magolor guided by Galacta the whole time unknowingly and then Galacta betrays him to escape AD for himself finally sheeesh
Actually characterize Galacta
GK wouldnt be able to resist the urge to FIGHT for this long lets be real
he doesnt strike me as a manipulator type
Is this the mode where they finally remix Under My Control
character from the novels
Magolor getting betrayed by its guide would be amazing to get him a taste of its own medicine
but now im almost certainly convinced that magolor will probably get betrayed himself to taste his own medicine
a counterpart to Morpho Butterfly
karma
Marx
Karmagolor
and that would actually lead to convincing character development
:clowntoclowncommunication:
imagine. can this mode actually solve debates on magolor's morality for once
God please give Galacta something cool to do
He's still gonna be a neutral guy
When nin10doland just decides to fucking spoil everything to his follower base
He can manage magoland while magolor's gone
Also who is ||papi||
loser
Why is Hyness there
wait
what a man he is
Fake cluckpait thumbanil
||White Magolor does in fact make him vibe like Hyness's pristine cloak||
Click bait, obviously
_i was thinking he'd still be stuck inside the crystal so he like communicates with him psychicly or some shit lol
||a character from the light novel where meta knight fucking dies and goes to hades, acts as his helpful guide there, likeable tragic blue butterfly||
||they could change papi into being like a life counterpart of morpho in the games i think||
If GK comes back without dying i want to see his Ultra Attacks
Underworld and hades are the same thing?
yeah
technically this place has no official english localization as far as i know?
both are fan names of the same thing mentioned in jp material
I hope its hell
||Papi getting the biggest glow up in history from random one-off novel character to God of Life||
me fr me fr
Magolor dies and goes to hell
i mean
To be honest at this point I'm not that mad about the spoil
its essentially that anyway in everything but name
just because it's on the back of the box
would be based
and visibly anyone could see the box and turn it around at this point
im not mad about this partially because i honestly think HAL/Nintendo been doing kind of a bad job at marketing this game lol
Literally whats going on with the marketing
eh
24 days left and radio silence
I'm not mad about the marketing
yeah
im not mad im just confused
Twitter is our only hope
and i dont want the game to sell worse cuz of it
because I could just see them talking about it potentially this week
Not mad just disappointed
or next week
idk let people be surprised their classic game has something new
does it NEED to be front and center
its not even that
Man the struggles of not wanting to be spoiled yet also wanting to see more
most people dont even know there WERE any news about the game lol
I have seen too many people in twitter comments seeing vids or footage and being like "THERE'S A RTDL REMAKE?"
It’ll probably ramp up once it releases
because overseas got few nintendo of america tweets and thats it
thats because most people dont care about a remake
thats kind of the point
its not FL
most people dont care because its not advertised
exactly
Besides Nintendo could mod Bubsy 3D to make your main character to link and change nothing else and it’d still sell like hotcakes
like what is there to talk about it that people havent already kind of known its been released for like 10+ years
i think marketing should be good regardless of novelty
Nintendo remakes/masters (and remakes/masters as a whole) have generally gotten a bad wrap from the others on the market
Thats the thing
also yes
People think is is just the same game
the new things they are choosing to show are the sub games and the animations and the quality of the game
They'll do marketing in like the last two weeks
Its not it got a shitton of new stuff
Nintendo's remakes are mostly just the same game most of the time
what is there to say about it, what is there to market about it
The marketing is HORRIBLE over here
and they are not showing it at all outside of japan
with a new coat of paint and that's it
like a couple of tweets is not a good marketing or showcase lol
We literally haven't even seen magoland yet
but in US and Europe, only NoE is actually fairly active
we did get one tweet about magoland actually
NOE is actually fucking active enough about it
but its been just a single tweet
noe carrying this game's marketing overseas on their backs
but NOA just barely
Tbh I’m not surprised Nintendo has been doing almost nothing right as an actual company recently in my opinion
They are so searingly out of touch
common NoE w
Hey do they always do a February direct?
i really just want it to sell well tbh
The direct will be the only marketing thing
FE barely gets anym arketing either
im still not entirely convinced about direct but eh. whenever its revealed it will be revealed lol
Maybe like a countdown tweet series
there will be TV ads
oh boy look at this tweet every other day
and an overview video
klu just wants it to sell better than SA (which is fair)
Some game trailers that will air on the ads
i want this to be best selling kirby remake
Honestly Super Ultra needs to retire
I just want this to outsell star Allie’s as well
Can't have the "best Kirby" be 2 of the same games
i dont think as a remake it can like genuinely
I am so tired of hearing about void man like
Maybe we get the news on Sunday
Lukeman watch out
i mainly want it so HAL can be rewarded for doing actually good work for making a great rejuvenation of a classic
Magolor Day as I like to call it
no
im grown so tired of hearing about SSU like omg the game didnt save your dad guys
we will never get news on sunday
That boxart boss has his drip
like im convinced HAL is actually asleep on that day
Never expect news on sunday
they never posted anything kirby related there except for like. this year's new year's tweet
NoE may randomly tweet
Dont worry I was just joking
but I doubt they would do something very new about it lol
But funny magolor day
It did introduce me to Kirby
But yeah this game has aged even now
||mfw i discussed the idea of a morpho counterpart for the epilogue not knowing that the novels actually did this 💀||
Also I think the magolor in festival thing was only under certain conditions
I can't wait for Kirby Super Star Deluxe
||Such as good ending Magolor Epilogue?||
Huh how
But that's an image everyone has seen already
have we gotten more info since the box leak
other than its legitimate
theres' nothing
Thanks
Like right on the website and probably on the twitters too
nope, except more people actually having access to the box
Wait it was confirmed to be official? Like I’m not surprised but
nintendo is uploading the next trailer as we speak actually
and reconfirming it
Thursday
someone here actually went to GameStop
and had access to the box
and it's the same thing
yerh
and they couldnt get a higher quality photo god damn it
you can't
Anyway RtDLDX will probably sell well enough but i just dont think it being 3rd big Kirby release on switch, remake, i dont really expect it to sell hard but like who knows
the print quality doesn't allow the text to be legible
Listen they gotta be sneaky about photographing products
Link's Awakening Switch sold more than Link's Awakening GB/GBC DX during its gameboy lifetime
They aren't allowed to do like print scans yet
if its on the shlef they likely dont care if you snap a pic
my camera sucks and the print was small lol
at least according to these wikipedia numbers
dw im not serious
Tbf fl may have bought in a lot of new fans so maybe if they pop off with the marketing post-direct they could get a lot of people on this
no wait the original outsold the switch version by a bunch of point. mils
this is a great way to introduce the new fans to kirby
it's got pretty much everything at a surface level
another remake that exists, Mystery Dungeon, is like. 5.25 mil copies original in a year
and the switch one is like 1.89 mil
in a year
mystery dungeon games in general have nicher audience because gameplay is Funny
remakes just don't really sell
if rtdl dx doesnt sell too well then it proves the less effort the better /hj
like as a game it will hold on its own
half of switch's library are "remakes"
I still think they'll have this in a direct bc why not bring attention to your next big ip that's releasing a game in like 2 weeks
its likely not that high of an investment for a remake
it just depends on set of circumstances really
i am speaking specifically Game Redone in Current Console
this honestly just boosts appeal because rtdl is not some sort of iconic classic that sold really well
it sold decently but its second worst selling modern game and it came out on wii in 2011
no one cared about wii in 2011 anymore
||again a reminder of this
||
this needs to happen
im honestly thinking about sales being hindered by "too much" kirby. saw someone say they're skipping this one because it feels like we've gotten a ton of kirby games in the past year
for many it will be genuinely the first time they will play this game
I really hope this ||Magolor Epilogue|| is advertised as a main selling point. It can be the thing that decides whether players who already owned the Wii version will buy it or not
Some people who had Wii U 3D World had no problem getting the switch version because of Bowser's Fury. Are they making good decisions? That's debatable, but, point is, advertising new content is KEY
i dont think it will affect much
||if sword wielding characters occupy the same space they must have a clash, that was in the constitution ||
i only really see people who say that are ones that wouldnt be interested in this game in the first place
lol
I don't understand people being mad because there's too much Kirby
fair enough lol
they are jealous
baby game
when Kirby has literally always been a yearly thing
TMK no way
people who're mad at all the kirby games are so annoying
like they are just jealous plain and simple
he's right
yeah there's really no point on the too much kirby thing at most Kirby fans will just buy it later
Nintendo stop it with kirby and give us new f zero
i think its just lack of information
like, Kirby gets yearly games, sometimes more than one game in a year
its both
not mad but just disinterested because of the large quantity. like the game blending in with the others that released for those that aren't big fans of the series
mario fans are just suffering because there hasnt been a good new mario games in years 
they think kirby is getting more attention from NINTENDO
They think Kirby is developed by Nintendo
nintendo does not make kirby games
thank god
so thats why they get annoyed
people will simply just buy things later is the whole thing and thats what RtDLDX feels like it hinges on
Nintendo when they made a kirby game
"why is nintendo putting so much effort into kirby when they could be makin--" SHUT UPPPP SHUT UP
Why is KIRBY getting games when PIKMIN hasn't gotten a game in 30 billion years? NINTENDO THINK OF YOUR CUSTOMERS!
"Bruhhh more Kirby where is Botw 2"
tilt and tumble:
its jealousy but its missplaced cause its based off not knowing wtf they are talking about
i feel like people won't really know what to expect on release or if they DO like advertise it in a direct i still think it'd be like "Oh yeah i can get that later"
Same with people thinking Pokemon is by Nintendo too
i speak only the fact and truth
do i dare bring up the nintendo life video again
what'd they say
that and people could just emulate the old version or people teling others you could just play the old version
yeah def not something people are dying to get immediately but could see gradual sales over time
theres way less people like that now mainly because with pokemon i realized something
when people hate something its fault of the developer
“NO, PLEASE, HAVE MERCY”
if it outsells KSA its gonna do it in a year or 2
when people love something its Nintendo
I think the general consumer-base will be turned off by the price tag but that's a given for any remake tbh
"oh man nintendo did such a good job with kirby and the forgotten land
"
there's also that
nintendo should stop working on all these kirby games and put more effort into metroid prime 4 fr
"good work on metroid dread nintendo!!"
"Thank you Sakurai for making Kirby and the Forgotten Land I now understand why the smash DLC took so long"
tbh will they even know its a remake
like i said rtdl is not particularly known game
girl
I mean the "deluxe" gives it away haha
well like
kirby triple deluxe
where's Kirby Triple

what i meant is not that its not obvious that its a "remake" its just its not the type of remake where its the game everyone already played
wait.
ahh I get you
European players may not know
nah i bet there's gonna be some people who think its a new game
considering the name change lol
Kirby's Return to Dream Land + ||New Magolor Mode||
i wonder if this is a remake or remaster territory
F for you europeans
Different name, same everything
I still think people will think "Wait, this is a remake? And it's 60 dollars?! FUCK uhhh Skyward Sword Bad fuck fuck fuck" etc
remake
They will recognize the cover lol
definitely remake
idk cause it seems like its reused assests just spruced up
remake
remasters looks like Skyward Sword on Wii put on the Switch
definitely
this is the Theseus ship of gaming discussions
nah there's no debate here
look me straight in the eye and say this looks like a reused asset from ** Wii**
literally none lol
Yeah i dont get this
idk
and also part of why i dont think the remake will sell hard
i can still see the polys on the tre

???
its a joke
people will look at a game and see "oh its 2D and looks similar"
and they will just say Oh is it a port and thats like
do you think outlines may actually affect the sales
some people say DX looks worse
Me when Knight from Hades becomes Knight of Doom
no one gives a shit about outlines except vocal minority
a bunch of twitters in nintendo replies?
i do hope there's an option to turn them off. not that i want to, but i think a lot of people are gonna be picky about it
"add in a turn off outlines option"
its no smash
they're a minority tbh lol
when i say "asset resuse" i mean moreso level geometry models are ripped form the recent games ect
||And then he just pulls out the crucible from doom eternal ||
visuals on the whole seem completely different from SA to me idk
yeah uh idk why thats a problem
how the hell is THIS the game to cause the most bitching outrage in the franchise
all games nowadays are built with building blocks
they are reusing some things because its efficient yeah
ask any gamedev
star allies is RIGHT there!
not really
yorue dead to me
so glad i wasnt in the fandom during the SA era
i heard SA was much worse when it was new
it really doesntm atter though if its remake or a remaster but its interestign to see where lines are drawn on them
like that adeleine debacle lol
some people call klonoa prs a remake
i doubt this game will cause anything on the same level as that
what was the adeleine debalce
otherh alf say remaster
death threats over lack of announcement
they use any word they want
basically
like how Pacman is "Re-Pac"
what the fuck is a repack
damn
didnt Kirby JPN block people over that?
to play devil's advocate i do get where you're coming from, bc remakes that are like Crash set the bar super high for what "remake" entails in the eyes of consumers. but that said Yeah rtdldx is def a remake
kirby fandom being wholesome
overall i dont think it entirely matters. like this is a remake yeah but its not like gonna be relevant for most people
what will be relevant is what kind of value it offers
YEA H Like
and we know that it offers shitton of value
that said I'll be honest I almost find it weird their focus on this character specifically
yes Kirby looks the same, he hasnt really changed compared to PS1 where polygons were like saved up like a dollar in a thrift store
KRtDX is that level of remake
it already is
that said i remember having similar discussion when the game was first announced 4 months ago
its just that the old game wasn't really a low point anyway
but then it's like the one most iconic character of Wave 2 so I get it
This is a reused asset from my desktop wallpaper
yeah wii->switch is much less of a graphical leap than ps1->ps4
its so funny to look back on with more knowledge
true!
its my desktop wallpaper
same
Wii used shit like textures and normal mapping to get effects out and RtDL DX is actually using modern shit like Wii literally did shit like
flashing a model white on and off each frame for an effect or something while RtDL DX makes the effort to actually like. make an animation for it
shes the most popular character from dark matter trilogy that isn't dark matter and many people clamored for her to come back for years
this is basically why
she's human too so thats a plus right
Kirby's still not a juggernaut. RtDL DX is just not gonna sell hard on the first month i'd wager and if im wrong woohoo!
I think it will still sell fine
but like its just gonna be a gradual sales climb tbh
RtDL will sell a morphillion copies
and I'll tell you why
give us your NERD knowledge
To be honest even for not online people
tbh i dont want it to like, set records, but i do want it to sell well overall in a long run
Now this question is for YOU, that's right, YOU
will you buy this game
this is kind of what happened to star allies
they'll probably just hear about the game on TV
i will buy the game
where it reached 4 mil sales eventually
ya
or just notice the game exists
I’m just getting tired of the switch at this point aside from return to dreamland nothing coming out for it has my interest
felt
if anything, the first sales are mostly the online people who knew
I have no money so I won't buy the game right away
ya
but I think if you just put the game in a Nintendo Direct before release
it cancels all the problems
lol
fair enough
teehee
tbf its also cuz like we know literally nothing thats coming out in near future except for zelda out of big boys
it's free publicity because now people are talking like "LOOK, NEW MODE NOT IN THE ORIGINAL GAME"
THIS IS MAGOLOR'S ATTEMPT TP REACH MAGOBILLION COPIES
that is worth talking
ye the series will die bc of it
I've already played the original and I can't really be wasting money, so
Also my brother straight up. Does not want it. He really dislikes the outlines and Dedede lol. Children will be children he is a teenager
I think the new mode will largely appeal to existing fans given the nature of it, but might draw in people that were gonna skip out on the remake bc they had the original
see like
damn your brother has no swag
people WILL skip out on it
like people will skip on all games but remakes just have like
a slight slider towards more skipping
i mean i am aware of odds against this game which is why im a bit frustrated with the marketing rn
i was wary on getting it before but im convinced now
its like they are only making those odds even worse despite you know
actually putting EFFORT into it unlike most other switch's so-called remakes
RtDL is also relatively recent. little over 10+ years. makes it harder to sell the remake. but I hope they fucking market it once the direct comes out
maybe we should do the marketing instead
you say relatively recent but what if i told you
that super star was about as old when super star ultra first came out

time is truly relative thing isn't it
yeah it is weird lol
Bowser's Inside Story got a very successful remake when it was years old
said no one ever
its only recent because it still looks the same as the old one but the new one is still better
BIS wasn't successful
if it's in MY lifetime it's recent because my life is when all recent things happen
KSS looks bad so when it got a remake it was sexy
everyone just wanted to get rid of the 3DS at that point
he's joking
yeah ik lol
lol
yeah ik
Lol
that game is the textbook definition of an unnecessary remake
same with last of us on ps5
for a second i thought you were talking about the rtdx lol
am i
So successful that it killed the company
If return to dreamland deluxe does not succeed HAL will die forever
never played it
dq11 exists mostly cuz game took forever to develop and it was like promised to be there
plus 3ds sold like hotcakes in japan anyways
||"magolor goes fully naked"
NO.||
NOOOOO
based
i still cant believe we actually get confirmation that he ||has ears||
he has WHAT
||me and my family when we see fully nude magolor||
no nose then
Good ending
magolor is a ancient nerd but when he discovered hyness he repainted his ears
im TELLIN you (headcanon) ||Magolor's Halcandran|| in all but blood 😩
he lives there he knows everything he is a local but he's just not related to actual ||halcandrans by blood||
Magolor is Efreeti
does magolor even come from halcandra lmao
there is ample descriptors of it
Novel says he hates Halcandra or something so I dunno
thats the first ive heard of that
im writing this on "his" starcutter
Perhaps I should check sources before saying
so I checked my gamestop
and I think I got the lame placeholder back cover
it said "gamestop display" (or something along the lines) at the very bottom of the back
sorry 
(would've bothered getting better pics if it was the other one, but just took quick ones since its stuff we already know about)
certainly doesn't look like the normal back cover so
its fine we already got confirmation
someone else took photos from gamestop and we got the inside too
👍
I mostly just wanted a better picture of the skill tree thingy
yea this is what i was talkin about yesterday
||can someone link the reddit post||
yeah we have 2 different people doing the thing
i like how it looks like photos
kinda feeds the storybook feel ig
76 votes and 26 comments so far on Reddit
dayum dedede got mike wazowski'ed here
this literally reads like the eShop description
ugly ass big ass stickers
it has images from eshop page too lol
fr
its probably literally just copy and pasted from there
What if theyre covering it up
i got gamestop'd 
Dedede is the new shmirror
probs lol
GameStop now knows 
has anyone taken zoomed in pictures of the ||Magolor Epilogue|| thing yet
or do we still just have the zoomed out pics
Canada
canadian
$80 cad roughly equals $60 usd
few people tried but you can do only so much with low res printed image lol
Canada and Australia be like
true ig
we have dollasr but everything costs more
I hate it when stores just slap a huge sticker on a game box. Like bro you ruined it
They should cover the bottom
canada moment
Better to cover Onion Ocean than Dedede
while I was there at least I got pre-order ig
it was free so why not
tried to make it clearer with AI image quality increasers, but it didn't really gave anything substantial
game stickers are just the worst
Here in Mexico the game is like $1,400 pesos, so...

too many numbers
bloody hell
Money is (not) funny
switch games are usually £50 over here
60$ here which is about the same as dollar
switch games here are 60€
do not ask Gigi about the game prices there (large number jumpscare)
When different countries and economies have different currencies conversion
I came back to money talk 
reject coins embrace gem apples as currency
this will effect the economy
can the ||magolor epilogue text|| be deciphered now
anyway honestly im probs not gonna be talking about rtdl dx for a while until i feel like talking about it
ive kinda grown a lil exhausted from all this news and discussion
its gonna be a good game, but right now i am drained of rtdl
i find it funny how all of these posts are canadian, are there display boxes anywhere else?
Hoping that magolor is at least playable in the minigames if he isn't in the main mode
Damn L
But yeah luckily fry got first hand proof
Unless fry is the one who made it and it bamboozling us 

One of you animals has to get a picture we can read lmao
I NEED to know what the white box says that big ass 2 is haunting me
Is it 2 levels (like kf2)
2 ranks up
2 of deez
I must know
but there's nothing more
just wait until trailer smh >:)
Right now I'm assuming it says something like ||upgrade in 2 ranks||
that is the best resolution it can be
Like itll change from ||magic sphere to the other one with three balls||
You're probably right however WAH WAH WAH I WANT MORE AND I DON'T WANNA WAIT 
you rn
Sanity deflating
Sanity is feeling better after this was confirmed true
Brain is still full however because how am I supposed to be normal about my favorite character getting exactly what I wanted and also the prospect of one of my other favorite guys (Galacta) having a canon appearance and some importance
Hades game!!!!11!!!
