Yet more TALES OF INTEREST! I've got to say that this does go a long way towards explaining a number of things, like why Super Star is still my all time favorite Kirby game. A dropped "horror" game where Kirby's lips are stitched shut?! Then, there's the reveal that Spring Breeze was intended to be played without copy abilities ala the original Kirby's Dreamland. The latter I entirely expect to be an added option via ROM hacking fairly soon. The former? That's a tall order... But even tall orders must be filled hackers. Here I thought Sakurai was making all these modern Kirby games only to discover his role is essentially advisory. The man really has been chained to the Smash Bros desk for decades hasn't he?
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
