Also shout out to waddle dees for actually being loyal to their king and fighting for him on numerous occasions instead of running around like chickens with their head cut off everytime peach gets kidnapped for the upteenth time cuz they still cant securely protect a small castle on the opposite end of kingdom even tho they have had 20+ opportunties to learn.

[@cybershockgames1434]

The point of Epic Yarn isn't to make it to the end of the level alive, - it's to make it to the end of the level with all the treasure and enough gems to 100% it

[@bellvine7730]

Yes!! Epic Yarn is my favorite Kirby game, and it was honestly sad to see it so low on the list. It's actually pretty brutal if you want to 100% it.

[@moonbbinie7423]

Yes!!! I 100% epic yarn and it is definitelyyyyy a hard game when you try to keep all your gems throughout the whole level

[@funwithcoding2818]

I respect that, though as someone who played it, kirby just doesn't feel right without copy abilities, that's why I didn't like mass attack either.(funny, since the original didn't have them lol)

[@EXPeepik]

@@funwithcoding2818did u like extra epic yarn? Apparently its a worse version but as i cant be bothered to open up dolphin nor can the 3ds emulate wii, its want ive been playing

[@quadpad_music]

That's kind of a general trend with Kirby. Easy enough to beat, absolutely BRUTAL to fully complete.

[@nekame]

As someone who considers a Kirby fan my top 5 would be: 1. Planet Robobot 2. The Forgotten Land 3. Return to Dreamland 4. Super Star Ultra 5. Crystal Shards Special mentions to Triple Deluxe because it's soo good and Epic Yarn because this one feels very unique

[@KenpachiZaraki001]

Have you played forgotten land?

[@SquidPartyDude]

And in epic yarn you cannot die ;-;

[@Durtle.]

Return to dreamland amazing

[@diegobisono8869]

The thing that sucks is that Super Star Ultra isn’t on Wii U VC but the SNES version is on there though.

[@danllan835]

As a long time Kirby fan, those 5 are also my favorites, just different orders

I skipped out on most Kirby games over the years but I recently got Forgotten Land and I love it! Now I wanna go back to play all these older Kirby games I missed

[@MaxSixty-Three]

I agree, mass attack was my childhood

[@MrH.09]

ok

[@notrenbanney2450]

same I wanna get the 3ds ones

[@miserablepileofsecrets]

Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot are freaking amazing... and cheap! You got a good deal: instead of a Switch port at 80$ each you can get both for that price on 3DS.

[@luckywii8731]

*_Get Triple and Robobot while you still can man! You won't regret!_*

Forgotten Land is definitely my #1, Kirby should've gone fully 3D a while ago

[@margiemorrison9190]

I'm excited for later Ideas who knows what will happen next

[@luckywii8731]

I agree, forgotten land is one of the best, but I do say that its missing a bit... Its missing speedruns... I wished we could've played as DDD again like in triple deluxe... That would've been cool, they might update it because all he's doing is laying in waddle Dee town all day... *_but I still simp_*

[@margiemorrison9190]

@@luckywii8731 also the only reasonit takes so long to beat is because u have to grind coins and waddle dess that's the only reason if there was no waddle Dee's it would take 5 hours or maybe less plus I don't like how u play long levesl again

[@its_sigh9545]

Kirby Air Ride is so nostalgic to me. I spent hours after beating it just driving around and coming up with my own story lines.

[@hackfleischking5162]

I played it over and over and over again with my friends and it never got bored. Best "racing" game ever

[@sachi_the_slayer]

Kirby Air Ride definitely needs to be higher on this list, it's one of the best multiplayer games for many reasons!!

Kirby's Epic Yarn is fantastic in co-op. I played through the whole thing with one of my friends and it was a blast from start to finish.

[@MonkeysMonkeysMonkeysMonkeys]

My god super star ultra was an easy favorite from the ds. It really felt like an adventure the way you changed scenery and enemy types so often. The sprites and the music give it such a nostalgic vibe too. I’ve beat it atleast 100 times. It’s my favorite game of all time. Such a fun time waster. Speedrunning it recently has only made me love it even more.

[@DakotaofRaptors]

My first legit Kirby experience; the DS era was a magical time for me

[@El_Chuchuca]

​@@DakotaofRaptorsThat's how creative Nitnendo was during the 90s. Literally one of the best Kirby games is a remake of a 1995 one.

[@transbiantrash]

I really wish more people knew and talked about Mass Attack. that thing was my childhood and I fought for so long to 100% the game, mini games included. such fun memories

[@PabloLopez-hz2hq]

It was my first Kirby game. I used to see my friends play the other DS ones where you got power-ups and I wanted that. Didn't know Mass Attack was COMPLETELY different. Nonetheless, it was a experience I will never forget.

[@thecrimsonpool]

i haven't played much of the series...but the ones that have left a impact for me were 1. Forgotten Land 2. Return to Dreamland 3. Crystal Shards 4. Nightmare in Dreamland 5. Superstar (Ultra)

[@SonicMaster519]

My personal list, coming from a guy who has played almost all the Kirby games (don't have Forgotten Land yet and some GB Kirby games I don't have (I think I don't have the GBC one too)) 1. Crystal Shards, Return to Dreamland, or Robobot (SUCH A HARD CHOICE FOR ME) 2. depends on 1 3. depends on 2 4. Kirby Star Allies (really easy but it gave me good memories playing with my brothers to cherish) 5. Probably Kirby's Dream Land, but if not then Kirby Mass Attack 6. depends on 5 7. Kirby's Air Ride (I would put higher because of how fun multiplayer is but singleplayer gets boring kinda fast) 8. Kirby Super Star Ultra 9. Kirby's Dream Land 3 10. Kirby's Epic Yarn Notable Mentions: Kirby's Block Ball Kirby and the Rainbow Curse Kirby's Canvas Curse And to all the dedicated Kirby fans out there, yes I am aware I have garbage takes.

[@cryo_genos920]

My favorite ones are - Amazing Mirror - Mass Attack - Epic Yarn - Return to Dreamland - Super Star Ultra all of these are because of nostalgia ( I havent played forgotten land yet but I shall get it soon )

[@davebambigamingita9292]

Superstar ultra is 100× better than the original, it can replace it easily

​@@davebambigamingita9292both worth playing but I agree

​@@SonicMaster519no you don't. You're respectful and not dunking on people.

[@CarlytheWolf23]

Such a wholesome franchise. *Looks into the lore* •-•

[@LinkDawnbringer]

I mean... yeah! Robobot was an INCREDIBLE game. And the amount of story you can get by reading each boss's blurbs is so much fun, along with that twist ending reveal of what Haltmann was really (re)building? INSANELY cool.

[@Gameshunter92]

57:40 You can actually just hold down the B button to keep "casting" the reflective barrier as Mirror. Also using the Block button (R or L) as Mirror does create a reflective shield around Kirby too.

[@knowwhoiamyet]

Kirby Air Ride is one of those games where I want to take what they had on the gamecube, add an online multiplayer mode, flesh it out a little bit, and call it good enough. No need to reinvent the wheel on this one. I'd honestly be completely fine with just a remaster of the game that just updates the way it looks and adds online multiplayer. I'd buy it and play it in a heartbeat.

[@vulcanraven9701]

Yeah. Air Ride definitely feels like a rough draft to something potentially amazing. The racing aspect could definitely use a balancing element, the abilities could really use improvement. The City Trial should be bigger and have multiple potential cities etc. If the changes are executed properly, it could be one of the best racing games ever imo. The premise is very unique...

[@Sodamoth]

I honestly liked canvas curse, other than the water levels and autoscroll, it was pretty unique and fun, once you understand the controls.

[@sjb626]

Loved both Canvas and Rainbow curse! Very high on my personal Kirby list

[@cameronwallace8265]

In case you didn't know, there's a Japan-only SNES version of Star Stacker called Super Star Stacker. There was an English patch made recently too. If you liked Star Stacker but wished it wasn't on the Gameboy, check it out!

Kirby 64s abilities are so unique and fun. I wish other installments would do something similar. Squeak squad has something similar but it's not the same.

[@ChaosPancakes]

1:03:11 I 100% agree with this one. Planet Robobot is my favorite Kirby game ever. Highlights from the game for me was definitely the bosses, final boss, this game’s Meta Knightmare, the true arena, robobot armor, and UFO.

[@Raph___A]

I'm so glad to see that you're not only back, but you came back even stronger with this ranking!

[@tobias6107]

Nathaniel Bandy EX am I right?

[@SMGElectricBoogaloo]

Fun Fact: Pinball Land DOES have a save state system, I should know, because my used copy of the game had a file on there. You access it by pausing the game and saving. Wherever you are.

[@hansj4832]

You do have to pause with SELECT - pausing with START just freezes the game. I'll also hijack this comment to say that Pinball Land also has no limits as to how much you can nudge the table.

[@SMGElectricBoogaloo]

I’ll further hijack this comment by saying that the Green Greens theme in Pinball Land has a missing chord progression.

[@raleo7466]

I feel betrayed that return to dream land is just at 8. It's the game with the most different abilities with the largest moveset for each ability. It was the beginning of Kirby games with a plot, a quite dark and in your face one. And I loved the wormhole levels for the collectable gears. You had to speedrun a level and then kill a boss

[@missmaterialgorl1775]

[@galacticambience3305]

It looks pretty nice but just like the original Luigi's Mansion they should've ported it to Switch. The switch was already out and the 3DS was nearing it's coffin. Nothing against the 3DS but they both could've been much better on Switch.

[@calebdonaldson3261]

off topic but the last words halt hears before dieing is yippee

[@skyeschlueter9877]

Controversial opinion time: While I haven't played Canvas Curse, I recently replayed Kirby and the Rainbow Curse and REALLY enjoyed it. It is the kind of game that was designed to be 100% completed, with the challenge mode, music player, and figurines being nice pallet cleaners between worlds. Learning to really master moving around with Kirby's dash as well as managing your paint was a highlight of the game for me. Not to say that it's flawless or anything (the repeating bosses are disappointing, the water levels aren't nearly as bad as he makes them out to be but Kirby's physics in currents certainly is, and some of the treasures in the game are frustrating), Kirby and the Rainbow Curse feels like the kind of game that I would want to learn in and out.

[@PlushiePower]

I agree, Rainbow curse is genuinely one of my favorite wii u games :>

[@geminisfl]

I loved Canvas Curse ... just as I loved Pac&Roll ... I might be from the weird kind :P

[@blanklycharismatic7397]

I thought playing this game co-op made it much more enjoyable. Waddle Dee and Kirby complement each other with what they can and can’t do so you don’t feel frustrated nearly as much. (The only problem is they didn’t bother to let Waddle Dee play in the Rocket mode)

[@TEst-vc4jd]

I was very pleased to see Dreamland 3 so high up the list, great art style and amazing soundtrack

[@That-One-Will]

For anybody interested in Kirby star stacker, the Japanese exclusive sequel is now on switch online!!!

[@Leppa10]

The fact that Kirby goes on a violent rampage over a slice of cake in Kirby Squeak Squad is hilarious!

[@Switch_Lens]

Every time I get close to thinking that thinking that the channel is getting almost slightly stale a little bit, Nathaniel releases a video like this.

[@jordanlavados1954]

I totally agree!! Is good to see someone giving planet robobot a deserved place 🎉

[@betafurret1503]

Kirby battle royale is extremely underrated. 1. It’s fun as hell 2. It has some of the best music in the series 3. It has *the* best version of the Dedede theme 4. Without it there wouldn’t be forgotten land 5. They gave sleep an actually move set

[@anonymousloris]

My friend recently found her 2ds after 2 years and the entire time it was missing kirby battle royale was still on. She literally said it brought back memories of her playing it for hours at a time. Honestly from what I've seen it doesn't look too bad honestly and I would play it.

[@starlytesvids8811]

Kirby and the Amazing Mirror is my all time favourite. Lost countless hours playing that game as a kid. Music was top notch too.

[@luiswaverly5632]

I remember it being the first game I ever played, I didn't even realize you needed to collect batteries at the time. I would just call upon the characters so I'd have company the entire time. I also really loved the final boss, it just had such an amazing design. I'll have to find my gameboy again because this video's made me want to play it again.

[@gliscorkid184]

The first ever Kirby game I played was superstars ultra, and I didn’t touch a Kirby game until the forgotten land. That doesn’t mean I hated Kirby but it meant that I wasn’t really into Kirby as a kid but now after playing the forgotten land, the series is amazing

[@luckywii8731]

If I'm being honest, Kirby star allies was lacking everything Robobot and triple deluxe had: Unique abilities and 2.5D platforming. Robobot has the best abilities hands down, UFO and Mirror are OP, but too bad tornado wasn't in it, bell ability is also OP, and both games are well done with the 2.5D in every way, if Kirby star allies was like them, it might have been a better game (also they needed to stop handing us lives like its garbage in KSA too)

[@mr.sniffly5297]

They hardly handed out more lives in star allies than usual, you just got to keep them forever instead of resetting to seven every time you turned it off

[@theminebloxcraft5779]

Also they don’t have the parts where you interact with the four ground, which was lame

[@vansskater1]

Crystal shards on the n64 was and is one of my favorite games of all time. Soundtrack was slapping and the power up combination and tier system was so much fun to use. I think they even used some of those power ups in forgotten land. Namely one I've noticed is the fire bird attack, same attack from Crystal shards when you combined two or three fire style powerups

[@ClairDeLume]

im glad u mentioned kirby super star, i really grew up on that one. it was like the only game i'd ever play on our super nintendo. its probably one of the best kirby games so far

The only 2 Kirby games I have and have completed are Epic Yarn and Robobot. Yarn was always a good time as a kid but I find it a bit hard to return to these days, but the nostalgia is nice to look back at. I'm glad Robobot was is the only mainline game I actually owned as it was such a wonderful experience and it was very hard to put down. Maybe I'll do another run through it soon

[@wavyplaysgames]

14:56 For some reason, the Level Select music in Kirby & The Rainbow Curse makes me cry and I think that's because I remember having some really good memories with the Wii U.

[@stardf29]

So I grew up with Kirby's Pinball Land and really played a lot out of it as a kid. Honestly the most fun part was trying to go into the bonus levels and trying to rack up as much of a bonus as possible (and because you can get multipliers, those bonuses can become huge). I can definitely understand not being a fan of the pinball mechanics (nowadays I probably wouldn't enjoy it as much) but it definitely gave me some good times so my nostalgia points on that one are high.

[@OptimusProvost]

Forgotten Land is one of the most delightful games I’ve played in a while.

[@tacogardevoir1794]

I have casually 100%'d superstar ultra like 5 times now and honestly you just make me want to play it again

[@Doxsein]

47:30 this is my fav Kirby game of all time. I loved the multiplayer/coop aspect and the phone mechanic. I loved trying to 100% this game when I was young.

[@ellaDdoesvlogs]

I loved the Kirby series of games that you've uploaded your Ranking Every Kirby Game video, and you ranked every game in the series, including the newest Forgotten Land that I never played.

[@Bulbazorio]

I watched the entire thing! I agree with planet Robobot being number 1 since I have so many memories with that game and that final boss is something special.

[@CormDaCrow]

Planet Robobot was my first ever Kirby game and I'm so glad it was. Fun abilities, fun bosses a great story and a great introduction to Kirby's absolutely insane lore, which I'm a massive fan of

[@startropicz]

my first ever kirby game was super star ultra, and as i got older and explored other kirby games, i found that the only one that wasn't a MAJOR downgrade was amazing mirror, though the way it plays took a lot of adjusting to for me initially. i haven't played planet robobot yet, but after seeing it ranked the highest (in your opinion), im very excited to! ive always felt so let down by other kirby titles, and i didnt find out until recently that it only felt like that because my first kirby game was one of the overall best ones, so it set my expectations for the others way too high TT

[@rafruns]

Glad you're back!cant wait to watch this

[@marquaviouschester6947]

to me, return to dreamland (wii) was my first kirby game and i still play it to this day, but when i played kirby 64 for the first time, i fell in love with it right off the bat. the ambiance and the soundtrack is so godlike that everytime i play it, i keep thinking to myself "holy crap, i was born the same year when this was released"

[@Nick94956]

Amazing Mirror tops my list based on pure nostalgia. The amount of time that I put into that game on my SP is insane.

[@midnight1978]

Nightmare in Dreamland was my first Kirby-Game so it's one of my all time favorites! As well as The Amazing Mirror even tho I never managed to beat it thanks to the Metroidvania-ish gameplay xD got lost way to much. Squeak Squad is also one of my favorite as well as MassAttack and Epic Yarn. Atm however I'm very addicted to The Forgotten Lands! It's an amazing game!

[@galaxyjake2726]

I was extremely surprised that forgotten land wasn’t number one, but I can tell you still enjoyed it a lot.

[@isleling5191]

it's not I mean it's a fantastic game but it really doesn't need to be at the top of every list...

[@MutedAndReported3032]

@@isleling5191 It doesn’t need to be at the top of every list, but it’s at the top of mine, I really enjoyed this one

[@SilvieSteam]

"The fire Engine puts out water," ah yes and the ground is made of ground.

[@volnartheunforgiving3952]

Team Kirby Clash Deluxe includes characters who are not from Planet Robobot, such as Nightmare. Also, maybe I just have a soft spot because it was my first ever Kirby game, but I really enjoyed Blowout Blast.

[@dorderre]

Dreamland 1 was my second Gameboy Game ever (after Tetris) and I loved it to bits. And about all the things you mentioned that it didn't have? It was the first Kirby game ever, the starting point each and every other Kirby game is based upon. Of Course it didn't have all the features that later games added. And the "less than an hour gameplay" you said? I made a habit of rushing through it in less than 15 mins ^^ When you bypass all the side rooms and distractions that's easily manageable :) EDIT: I totally forgot about the music. Green Greens, Castle Lololo, Floaty Islands, Bubbly Clouds and most of all the DeDeDe theme, all of the tunes you can find here are iconic to say the least. They have been remixed over and over and steadily extended and improved over the last 30 years.

[@bulletmccarthur]

You should do a video where you rank every Kirby game.

[@IansProductions]

Nice to have you back!

[@spaghetti274]

Rainbow curse is one of my favorite Kirby games because at the time, I had never heard of canvas curse so I thought it was super original (now I know it’s not but it’s still top 5)

[@rockzyk1291]

It's cool to see Tilt and Tumble even get mentioned. I swear it feels like that game was lost to time. Bizarrely, it the only Kirby game I've ever owned and/or played for more that, like, an hour. I wasnt very good at games as a kid, but I, somehow, managed to beat it, so I'm proud of that.

[@mariogamefreak1]

It is coming to NSO so there will be a playable way to play it.

[@ThePillowGamer]

Got into Kirby after I decided to buy a GBA and Kirby Mirror… I LOVE THE SERIES

[@isleling5191]

my fisrt kirby game was kirby's dream land

[@ivoryvt]

My favorite has to be between Kirby: Planet Robobot and Kirby and the Forgotten Land. It's my favorite 2D platformer ever VS. my favorite 3D platformer ever, and it's legitimately hard to choose between them. For every strength I find about the former compared to the latter, I always find a strength the latter has compared to the former. I'm thinking of waiting until the recency bias fades before I truly choose between the two.

[@_hyva_]

I agree, though after 100%ing Forgotten Land, I think Planet Robobot won in my eyes Robobot perfected the 2D Kirby formula, but I feel like the new 3d formula has much more potential to grow When they make a new game in the 3D format, I feel like it's definitely going to be better than Robobot

[@Elentrium]

robobot is fun to play, but then comes the arena ex…

[@glimmerstantroop46321]

For me it is Return to Dreamland and The Forgotten Land

[@_hyva_]

@@Elentrium That’s one of the best parts of the game

[@Wetbluecat]

@@Elentrium that was difficult as heck dude. I love it for the difficulty because the satisfaction I got was so amazing I can’t even describe it. It’s like I had completed my mission after so many attempts.

[@TheNerdestOfOne]

I remember when planet robobot was announced, I was excited and for my birthday my family for the game With the Kirby amibo, man the nostalgia. I still remember when I finished it, I just wanted to hop right back into it.

[@ignorethis214]

Ha! I'm amazed you included the slide game! Got my wires crossed and thought it was from a 'jetix' card after so many years, but I still have that little cd in the envelope you showed. It's funny that the switch is actually bringing Kirby tilt and tumble to the Gameboy color games its bringing back!!!

[@andrewjbrave1370]

My personal favorite will always be Triple Deluxe, Super Star Ultra and Mass Attack, just because I played those a lot as a kid.

[@awawawawawea5232]

I have a soft-spot for kirby and the amazing mirror, that game was practically glued to my GBA SP and I always had fun playing it.

I reallyyy appreciate your love for Kirby and the Amazing Mirror. Im pretty sure this is the only video on youtube saying anything good about it... out of like the 4 videos on youtube that talk about it.

Hey! I really liked Tilt n' Tumble and Canvas Curse. Seriously, though, what we really need is a Kirby musou. Dreamland Warriors. Demolish hordes of Waddle Dees with various copy abilities. Think about it.

[@fatcat1]

I legit just played them all before Forgotten Land. Dreamland 3 took a while to get through because of how slow it was.
