Wow Japan really liked their mechs, don’t they?
I think this is another example of a perfect 2D Kirby game. It stays true to the original formula while making the right changes to make it feel modern and fresh. The levels are fun, the mech gimmick is engaging while not feeling overdone, and the normal gameplay still feels just as nice as it could.

I beat Planet Robobot last night, and I'm honestly ashamed I skipped on this one back when it was fresh. A few months ago, I said that Forgotten Land was the first Kirby game in a long time to fill me with awe. I'll admit, at the time, I had enough Kirby after Triple Deluxe, but in retrospect, I wish I had waited for Robobot instead. This has easily climbed my Kirby rankings, and is easily one of my favorite games in the series.
The premise is honestly killer. A space-hopping mega-corporation starts colonizing Popstar for profit, and Kirby's primed to stop them for his own well-being? I am surprised this wasn't done before, and it's such a great idea. I am not going to act like this game has some powerful social commentary; it is a kid's game, after all. Plus, the premise is swept aside at the end in favor of a larger, more abstract threat, which I wasn't a fan of. Regardless, it had its hooks in me all the way to the finale.
To be totally honest, I'm not a big fan of the Mech. Aside from the SHMUP segments; though those have always been a Kirby staple. That said, Mech gameplay isn't bad by any means. It's totally serviceable, and it's fun to experiment with different abilities while trying to get all the collectables. Still, I primarily play Kirby games for the core gameplay. Of which Robobot pulls from Triple Deluxe, which was already stellar. Mix that with fun level design, and exciting bosses, and I'd say the core Kirby gameplay is strong, here.
With the 3DS a quirky, legacy console, and the eShop defunct, I can't in good conscience tell anyone to find any way to play this one. It is a fantastic game, though, and if by chance, you have a 3DS, or are planning to get one, I'd chalk this one down on your list of games to acquire for it. Easily one of the best games on the handheld. It really does feel like the moment modern HAL finally got a grip on what made classic Kirby titles so great, and stuff like this and Forgotten Land has me excited for the future of this series.

Probably one of my favorite Kirby games out there next to super star/ super star ultra, but I went into this game expecting not to like it. I didn't think it was going to be that interesting. But, after getting through like 95% of the game I can confidently say that it is high up there on my list, very fun and very challenging (still haven't beaten the true arena T_T).

I Iove the references to Kirby superstar has one the best storylines my favorite 3ds game of all time the mechanics one the best in the series.
this is as good as return to dreamland. really great story, level design, music, and everything. a really fun time, i usually recommend this game to people trying to get into 2d kirby.
All the 3ds Kirby games are kino. I don't remember it as much as Triple Deluxe, but still it's a very solid title.
Very underrated.
It's peak.
This feels like the "Super Mario Bros Wonder" of the Kirby franchise. A surge of creativity in an otherwise somewhat stale and samey franchise. The level design is just so much more interesting than the other 2D Kirby games I've played, and playing as mech Kirby and getting a whole new range of copy abilities just never stops being fun. The final boss sequence feels more over the top than ever. Just a super fun game.
Kirby firing at all cylinders, to deliver his most refined adventure ever.
