They also had no internet back then (at least, nothing like the one today). Even without that major resource, the team rocked. It's no wonder Nintendo promoted Iwata.

the trackball thing isn't an unbelievable thing. I mean Golden Axe's spritework was made with a joystick. Dev tools back in the day were just incredibly unconventional.

[@tsundemon]

Ah, kirby. Who can forget that childhood intro: "First you draw a circle. Then you dot the eyes. Add a great big smile. And presto, it's kirby!" For a game that's about using enemies abilities, that is a lot of unused content. Can't wait for that portal episode with THE Glados!

[@sonicthefakerhedgehog8691]

I think that the unused Dedede sprites in Dreamland was that the king would jump into the ring only to realize that the spotlight meant to be on him was on Kirby instead.

[@SonicTheBlueBlur15]

[@WhatsOnMyShelf]

Not that it matters any more, but maybe they at least had a copy / paste functionality to speed up some of the process. There probably was a lot of coding on paper and transcribing it to the machine - still a slow process.

[@Gotmilk0112]

Stranger still, is that there's actually a (major) american vacuum brand named "Kirby". I like to think that it was 50/50 John Kirby and Kirby vacuums, that inspired the name.

[@hanezutchins2786]

I own one

[@quadpad_music]

It's probably in reference to Kirby the character, since both vacuums and Kirby suck up things.

[@KirbyMaster]

OH HECK YES! It's a Beta64 video, with KIRBY!!!!

[@qwertybear.7120]

Fun fact: the boss lololo actually starred in his own game on the nes (BEFORE!!!!) called adventures of lolo.

[@paddy844]

@MarioFan587, TheMasterGamer No you are wrong because before Adventures of Lolo appeared, there was a series called Eggerland which is actually the original series. Sorry for my bad english because I am German

[@qwertybear.7120]

MarioFan587, TheMasterGamer Yes, and Kirby came out in 1992.

[@Swagtfiy]

@@paddy844 You Spelled EVERYTHING Right btw 😉

[@NintendoFan]

A great episode as I expected! :D Just two minor mistakes: First, Kirby's basic sprites in Kirby's Adventure are exactly the same ones from Kirby's Dream Land, just recolored and with a bunch of new animations. They're the same size. Kirby Super Star for the SNES does have bigger Kirby sprites, though. Second, the "unused" Kirby's Dream Land Title Remix is used in Kirby's Adventure. It's the last song on the Sound Test, wich you get by beating it 100%. It isn't used anywhere else in the game, tough. And it gets glitch after the first loop. My guess is that this was the first song coded into the game, probably as a test.

[@Kurisu545]

NintendoFan *Though

[@Kurisu545]

NintendoFan And what a surprise to find you in another kirby related video

[@Vincent-js5sb]

They aren't the same sprite, but they are the same size, the original sprite used in adventure actually has a different design compared to dreamland's sprite, more than just a color change, look up the sprites and you will see the difference

[@NameThatNobodyTakes]

Vincent when kirby has no copied power and is standing, it's the same sprite from Dreamland (the one which shows both of his arms), and when he has a power it's a different one which only shows one of his arms. And except for the two falling animations, the walking animation and IIRC the ducking animation all other animations are new like flying, swimming, etc

[@MiroPVP]

29:30 They implemented the feature of having a “harder version of a common mini boss” in newer Kirby games, like Kirby Triple Deluxe's EX stages.

I was just watching one of your videos, then a Kirby review, then I got a notification for this video... that was a weird coincidence.

[@ifyb8827]

I personally like your calmer voice thats in your older videos (a good example is your Mario Sunshine video)

[@Norweeg]

Hooray, a new video! Also, 512 kilobits is only 0.064 megabytes. An old floppy is 1.44 megabytes for comparison. I think you meant to say kiloBYTES. A gameboy cartridge was commonly 512 kilobytes.

[@Birb666]

That's like more than a nes cartridge?

Ok, so Mario is named after a landlord that helped Nintendo of America and Kirby was named after their lawyer. So, who were Link and Samus named after?

I think the unused Kirby title theme can be found in the unlockable sound room. Still counts as unused, of course. And when I heard it back when I was a kid, I was hoping this meant that Kirby's Dream Land might be an unlockable game.

[@RealPoliDuck]

"I'm of course talking about Bubsy!" Me: Yaaay! " I mean Kirby sorry!" Me: owww!

[@dogscratch]

I think that the unused sprites for Dedede were supposed to be used when he was defeated, because bosses typically explode in some way or form (at least a little) when you beat them, and the darkness was likely soot on his face from the explosion, or something like that.

[@thetoontastictoon1720]

22:07 "Unused, Final" See now, this bothered me when I saw it. I mean, it's not confusing or anything, but it just looks weird. You're talking about TWO different UNUSED rooms, and you put "unused" for the one unused room, and "final" for the unused room we saw earlier on. That looks weird because I feel like "Final" should be reserved for things that were put in the FINALIZED version of the game, and not used for "finalized" versions of unused content. That final in my opinion should say something else, or the "Unused " should say "Early unused."

Freaking awesome. I've always loved Kirby's Adventure, its still THE best entry in the series imo. I can't thank you enough for digging into these two games. Kirby's Dreamland is definitely the lesser of the two, but still a wonderful game to experience. One bonus fact: the Lolo and Lala bosses were protagonists of their own 3-game series.

2:30 that's exactly what I use to do! I remember in math I would draw Kirby on the corners of my note book each day. And when you'd flip the pages, they all did an little animation!
