    Default Kirby's Epic Yarn for kids or not?

    Hi guys. So I've been checking out info on kirby's epic yarn. I have never played a kirby game in my life but the trailer looks kind of cool. I cant quite tell if this is a solid platformer like new super mario bros or if its just a kids game. Maybe the look of the game is making me think its geared for kids. What do you Guy's think? Is this something a grownass man would want to play?Thanks

    Look, Nintendo's target audience is always kids and families. Having said that, there is no rule against grown-ups and men enjoying their games. If you have no issues playing Mario games and the other Nintendo franchises, this game is no different.

    Certainly not! Like most Nintendo games, it is for everybody.

    I can't wait for this game. Sadly we in Europe are getting shafted once more as it has being delayed until January 2011.

    This means it may clash with Zelda:SS for my time. Unless that gets delayed too.

    For some reason this sounded rather erotic to me..... *shiver*

    The people who asked this question are the same people who have never bought a game system before the Wii. Silly OP.

    I will KILL to play this game once it comes to the store.

    Wait...wrong topic...I thought this was the "Does video games something something violence"

    But in all seriousness, I can't wait for this game. I have not preordered it, hoping Sears brings it in so I can use my employee discount. That, and because there are no preorder bonuses at GameStop.

    It looks wicked awesome, though I wonder how it will control with the Wiimote.

    Although, this does reek of a targeted blue ocean tsunami right into Grandmas Sewing Circle.

    What's the preorder bonus gonna be? A red hat?



    More like Kirby's Epic Yawn.

    (Of course, I kid. I wanted the game as soon as I saw it during Nintendo's E3 presser)

    Definitely gonna be getting this. Always loved the Kirby series, and this new installment is a total refresh/revamp! The totally new game mechanics have me especially excited, I was surprised when I watched the entire E3 trailer and Kirby didn't inhale a bad guy once! The art style is amazing as well!

    Actually, this game is going to deal with adult subjects. So this game is not for kids.
    I have a sig?

    That was pretty funny.

    If I owned a Wii I might have planned on purchasing this game. It looks good. Since I don't own a Wii I'll play it prior to picking it up though. I'm sure we'll never see a price drop by Nintendo, but I'll either pick it up on a really good sale or when and if it's being clearanced out.
    Everything in the above post is opinion unless stated otherwise.

    If you buy it at Kmart this coming week, you get a coupon for $20 any other game purchase. You also get an additional $20 off of NSMB, Other M or S&P if you purchase at the same time as Kirby. Sure, you're still out $50, but that seems like a lot of additional savings down the road as well as on three excellent first party Wii games.

    I played this for a couple of hours over the weekend....and...

    WOW...Simply Wow. I honestly cannot remember the last time I've had this much 100% fun with a game. Sure, it's on the easy side (i havent played around with any options) but this is PURE Nintendo gaming genius.

    Only reached the 3rd world but so far the gaeplay has been varied and I love the segment where Kirby transforms into a tank, car, etc.

    Are the controls like New Super Mario Bros.?

    The controls are similar but better IMO, there is a massiv lack of gimmicky motion controls ala NSMB Wii.
