Nintendo launches BIG pink fun with new Kirby: Triple Deluxe

By Sonya Davidson

In celebration, of the North American launch of Kirby: Triple Deluxe for 3DS, Nintendo hosted an intimate launch event with kid reviewers in Toronto recently to try out the new game. And yes, the huggable Kirby woke up from Dreamland and joined the kids in some fun! 

My 9 year old fell in love with the new game fast! In the new installment to the popular series, players must help Kirby save longtime rival King Dedede by traveling through worlds while inhaling enemies.  New features include a “hypernova” ability that gives Kirby the power to inhale everything in its way including massive trees and level sections. This was a hands-down favourite amongst the kid reviewers!
