I think it’s most likely due to how this released on the console two years after the SNES dropped for some reason, but I’m pretty confident in saying this is the nicest looking NES Game I’ve played this far. All of the colours look really nice and the sprites are probably the most detailed and nice looking I’ve seen on an NES Game, mainly with Dedede’s expression in the final world after Kirby fucks up and accidentally causes the world to nearly end like a dumbass. Anyways while this is definitely not the best Kirby game I’ve played thus far and some stuff does get a little repetitive like all the times you fight random enemies Meta Knight throws at you, but compared to some other NES Games around this time it’s aged remarkably well and I dunno if I can be mad at the game that started the tradition of fucked up hellspawn Kirby bosses.
(Also this is a side note but how much of a hot take is it to have cutter as your favourite copy ability, I’m pretty confident in it and beam being my top two.)

personally I'm more of a Freeze and Throw guy but Cutter is a great choice
