Kirby - All King Dedede Themes (Mt. Dedede) V2

[@300IQPrower]

I absolutely love how this is presented. Feels very “official music gallery” in every aspect from the bordered footage to the corner sprite to the text crawl.

[@justsomesimplenuclearbirbs4313]

Both Dedede's theme and Meta Knight's theme are enjoyable to listen to. The remixes they got in Forgotten Land perfectly match their situations. "Roar of Dedede" and "Masked and Wild" both have something off about them that fits with Dedede's situation, they're both still recognizable but it's clear that something isn't right. While "Sword of the Surviving Guardian" feels a bit more causal than the previous Meta Knight themes but at the same time it almost feels like it's more of a sparring match that's happening compared to the previous fights we've had with the mysterious knight. Trivia Edit: By the way, both Kirby's Epic Yarn and Kirby and the Rainbow Curse have errors related to the sound test. In the case of Kirby's Epic Yarn all of the Dream Land stage tracks claim to be from the original Kirby's Dream Land when in actuality it's only Green Greens and Bubbly Clouds that are from Kirby's Dream Land. Every other remix (minus King Dedede's theme and Meta Knight's battle theme which are considered original to Epic Yarn for some unexplained reason) are from other games. This was corrected in the British English version which clarifies that the remixes come from Kirby's previous adventures. Meanwhile in Kirby and the Rainbow Curse, King Dedede's theme is labeled as being a remix of the version from Kirby Super Star/Kirby Super Star Ultra when it's clearly based off of Kirby Mass Attack's version. This is not the only time this has happened. In Kirby's Dream Buffet the file name for the King Dedede remix is labeled as being from Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble instead of Kirby's Mass Attack although the pitch was changed to match the Gameboy version of Dedede's theme. Perhaps whoever did the file naming was unaware of which game that specific remix came from due to the pitch being similar to the Gameboy versions.

[@DrSuperLuigiSeth1]

Meta Knight is more of a harsh mentor than a real enemy to Kirby. A true enemy wouldn’t supply him with a weapon and all. This situation is obviously to let him grow even stronger to save the Waddle Dees.

[@Imacuser223]

@@DrSuperLuigiSeth1 Remember, he was out for blood in Revenge of Meta Knight. Blue's right that MK would arm his enemy out of honor regardless. In the amine, Amazing Mirror and this game (probably others), Meta Knight stopped being a villain or anti-hero and, yes, became more a mentor and ally to our young star warrior. Though I can't put it past him that MK wants to hone his skills against a tough opponent; one Galacta Knight springs to mind.

I love Dedede tbh. When I was younger I used to dislike him. One of my friends liked him but I always preferred Meta Knight. We would always "fight" over who's better, having silly arguments and all. But as I grew older I somehow started to think I like Dedede better, and his theme really grew on me a lot more. I always liked it, but not that much in the end. Now it's my favorite Kirby song pretty much, and it's awesome to go down memory lane with this. Super nice, and I love Dedede now. He's my favorite grumpy penguin and his hammer is super neat.

You gotta love when they take some obscure song (e.g. Dedede’s theme in Kirby’s Dream Course) and incorporate it into a different song (in this instance History of Dedede) and make it that much better. Hal is the master of not just reusing a song, but refurbishing it.

Change my mind. Dedede its one of the best villians and kirby friends for long

[@hiccupasterisk]

Dededestroyer Z goes so hard im impressed

[@RyansChannel0203]

Nightmare in Dream Land has always had my favorite version of the classic theme.

[@niblet8308]

I never even noticed Taranza's theme was basically a variation of Dedede's theme

[@BigShotSpamton]

Dedede in epic yarn is so clever with puppet strings instead of just possession or mind control

[@Theperfectpepper321go]

Ok spamton fan

You'd expect me to be a mainline lover but... Fucking puzzle game got my heart

[@monster25man]

Another game another dedede remix Our work is never done

[@DenjinOni]

Its not only a sign of "aint broke don't fix" its basically you hear it and you know who youre dealing with

[@Kirbicle]

These are all amazing, but can we all agree that Dedede’s Royal Payback is clinically underrated?

[@CheeryCinccino]

Years and years of trying to clobber that pink lump

Este soundtrack es tan perfecto que lo tengo en todas sus versiones, incluyendo covers de KZbin o similares

I never knew this whole time he was wearing gloves, until I noticed it when he goes Macho, that his hands suddenly turn blue

[@mugpup310]

You can also see him without gloves in the offical artwork of dedede in KDL 1

[@christophermorris7266]

the forgotten land theme gives off imaginary fight scenario vibes that make dedede feel like a badass

This man's absolutely murdered triple deluxe

[@jackhumphries1087]

It’s really easy to forget how clean the models in the 3ds games were, since you don’t normally see them in anything higher than 360p, when you artificially scale the games up to a higher resolution you could tell someone who had never heard of these games before that they were switch games and they would totally buy it.

[@batmanbud2]

The moment you realize Roar of Dedede is Macho of Dedede. . .but with more macho.

[@leilaclarridge5807]

I wonder if they used Dedede's Dreamland and 64 design so that they could use his NPC model in Forgotten Land for remakes? Because it seems odd that they would suddenly go back to that particular design specifically for FL after all of these years.

[@catsorafgc]

I mean, they went back to the SNES Dedede in Return to Dreamland after being based off his anime appearance for so long. I wouldn’t be surprised if they like rotating designs for him simply because they can get away with.

[@ghengiroo4143]

They probably just felt like changing things up, but a Kirby 64 remake would be sick.

[@glimmerstantroop46321]

@@ghengiroo4143 Unfortunately, I dont know, but I can name 2 off the bat. Waddle Dee and Adeleine were meant to be playable. The game had an unused Kirby dance melody which means the game was meant to have the iconic Kirby dance.

3:32 Random fact: this song was the basis for the Masked Dedede theme

[@paulc.303]

When Star Allies added the new verse to Dedede's theme, I didn't quite enjoy it at first, after re-playing Star Allies many times I started enjoying it, but with the new Dedede's theme that KatFL added, I feel like without that new verse, the song couldn't exist

The compilation to CLOBBAH DAT DERE KIRBY!

[@stupidmetalguy]

I personally think that the Canvas Curse remix has incredible potential to be awesome. It just needs some pacing fixes.
