Kirby's Rainbow Resort

Let me guess, this was going to be a Wii U game at first.


Note how when previous systems' times were up, they still had just a few more games coming out when closing up shop.

But when they say the Wii U is done, they REALLY mean it.

Yeah, they do seem to have dropped the Wii U like a hot potato!

So hey, the combo abilities primarily being combo attacks was confirmed, and with three partners at a time that essentially means up to 3 extra attacks at once, so that's pretty neat! A nice balance between having full combo abilities with full movesets each (probably a little too much to remember for the average player) and having combo abilities with one move each (a little lacking compared to what we see in abilities these days). As a whole this game seems to be shaping up quite fantastically!

I think the new abilities and combination abilities will be useful. I just hope tornado didn't change.

March 16th release date worldwide confirmed today. Very surprising, as...

1. Usually all main series Kirby games on consoles(Kirby's Adventure, Kirby Super Star, Kirby's Dream Land 3, Kirby 64, Kirby's Epic Yarn, Kirby's Return to Dream Land) release very late in the console's lifespan. This is a little over one year after the Switch launched. This is probably to make up for no real Kirby Wii U game.

and

2. I was expecting a late April or early May release date. I'm pleasantly surprised with the short wait.

Hey, they also confirmed two new abilities: Artist and Spider. Artist looks absolutely adorable.

Waddle Doo: But we just served the King a 10-course meal!
Dedede: All of them appetizers was un-appetizin'! Bring me 10 different courses and make it snappy!
Waddle Doo: Right! *he and the Waddle Dees finish the 10 courses and bring the food to Dedede* Hup, two, three, four, we bring the food and he wants more! Five, six, seven, eight, the King had better watch his weight!

I was thinking that Paint ability is now artist ability. Spider ability seems new to us.

Nah, paint and artist are two completely different abilities. I didn't like paint very much anyway. Artist seems much better. It's kind of a tribute to Paint Roller and Ado, considering the moveset.

Spider is alright, I guess. Another bug ability, like beetle. I hope we get to see more of it in action soon.

According to the Kirby wiki, the following abilities have been confirmed. This info came from the wiki so I'm not sure if this is correct.

Artist (new ability, NOT paint)
Beam (it's a series classic like sword, so this was to be expected)
Beetle (strange, considering the new spider ability and its absence from Planet Robobot, but apparently it made an appearance in Battle Royale, so I guess I shouldn't be surprised)
Bomb
Cleaning (first appearance in over 20 years, originally named Clean in Dream Land 3)
Cutter
ESP (returning ability from Planet Robobot)
Fighter (like beam and sword, a classic ability)
Fire
Hammer
Ice
Ninja
Parasol
Plasma (most likely replacing spark, first appearance since Super Star and Air Ride)
Spider (new ability)
Stone
Sword (this was to be expected)
Suplex (first appearance since Super Star)
Water (absent in Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot, 2nd appearance after RtDL, most likely replacing poison)
Whip
Wing (absent in Planet Robobot)
Yo-Yo (first appearance since Super Star)

I'm disappointed Spear(last appeared in Triple Deluxe), Doctor, and especially Mirror are not returning if this is the full list(I counted 22 abilities), but it's still a good lineup.

I wish UFO and smash ability were in this too. I wasn't too sure if amiibos are still compatible for this game even though most of us are carrying SSB Kirby and Kirby series amiibos.

I'm hoping for more info on the game soon. At least it's supposedly a worldwide release this time, so no having to avoid spoilers for months like with Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot.

I did hear that amiibos are compatible in this game too, but if I had to guess, it may be Kirby series amiibo although i'm not sure if SSB Kirby, Triple D, and meta-knight can be used. go 1:35 on this video, but if it helps a little more just go about 2-5 secs away from the mentioned video time.

its disappointing to me that people are so mad over the game being 30fps.
the game is going to be great regardless, and its not a reason to not play the game

This is info that has just released, so I can't confirm if anything is true.
