I thought this was a very good 20th anniversary bundle. Full of plenty of older games to show how far Kirby has come. Plenty of history and milestones to learn about related to the franchise. 3 episodes of the cartoon that hooked me way more than it should have.
The additional challenge mode was also really fun to play. While I didn’t know at the time that it was supposed to basically be a follow-up to the then-recent game, I appreciate that they made that decision since it feels like it still adds something to the series.

Played each one of the contained titles to completion on various other platforms, and got the King Trophy for earning a platinum medal on every course in New Challenge Stages. Should I ever want to replay Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, I will use this collection, but as for the other games, I'll do so by various other means.
one of the best collections of games Nintendo ever put out, this title has 6 of Kirby's best titles, a fun gamemode built off of RtDL, and an extensive history of Kirby museum that has 3 episodes of the Kirby anime, absolute bang for your buck if I ever saw one I got this the day it launched and I never regretted it
One of the best collections I've ever had the pleasure to experience. The contents are cool with the art book and packaging, but the goodies in the disc are awesome. All of the major Kirby games are well presented. They may be in 480p but it still looks good on a flat screen TV. The bonus challenges are an awesome inclusion as they were my favorite part in RTDL, and it even includes episodes of the anime!!?? Honestly I'd say this collection is well worth whatever price it is it's awesome and is a masterpiece compared to the shit that was the Mario 25th anniversary collection
This is the proper way to create an Anthology package and celebrate Kirby in videogames. Ideally, more games would have been welcomed but this collection does a good job of covering the early Kirby classic games all the way to Crystal Shards (Nintendo 64).
The presentation is great with colorful menus, museum features to learn more about each game and updates to the games so they are compatible with new control schemes.
I beat most of the games provided in this collection but need to get back to beat the SNES and N64 offerings. Long live Kirby.

now THIS is how you do a compilation folks. Decent selection of games, a bonus set of levels using the newer games engine, and a fun little museum to learn about the series' past from and even experience extras like entire episodes of the kirby anime. It's very easy for compilation titles to just be a menu of ROMs on a disc but when a game actualy celebrates the history of the titles it turns into something else.
A lovely collection of games with some neat bonuses. Lots of these games included were on virtual console however so if you only wanted 2 or 3 of them, you could have saved money and just downloaded them. The box is gorgeous, the episodes of the Kirby TV show are cool and the art book included is awesome. Any Kirby/Wii fan has to have this, it's that simple.
