Kirby's Nightmare is awesome to look at. (mostly but a bit scary) However for Metroid's, it is also too awesome, but takes a whole lot of fear resistance to look at it. Or you don't fear it at all, which it makes you awesome. (for myself, I fear it way too much... oh crap, the face THE FACE!)
I remember this music giving me shivers every time I got to this boss. After all these years, it still fills me with dread. When a game's music causes a reaction like that on cue without fail, that makes it one of the best pieces in VG music. Awesome track; one of my fav. boss battle tunes ever.
who here thinks kirby didn't give a crap abou5t knightmare and just wanted some peace and quiet he shoulda complained rather than go on a muderous rampage
As a kid, this was the most surprising game I'd ever played, beside the Final Fantasy series.. Not because of plot developments...
But because I beat King Dedede... Thought it was over.. Then a big sphere popped out of nowhere... and once the epic fight with the sphere ended (me dying twice from not killing it fast enough), this fight begins..
@wheredarknessislight lol, i beat dedede and i got all excited, then that ball came out off nowhere that me and my brother called big blue bouncy ball of death, then i beat the ball and this guy was the result. >_<, hes still the most amazing boss ever XD
after i played this game the guy looked more like duke university blue devils logo than the official art every time i watch one of their games on tv he pops in my head
This Nightmare is amazing, not too scary, not too ugly. just the way I like him. His weakness is getting hit in his exposed body under his cape when he uses his attacks.
The other one is a horrifying blue meanie with a green f**k-face only a mother can love, and his weakness is WTF: Shoot him in his face with missiles and or beam weapons, it's not a good sight when you do that to him, but it is kinda funny in a way. His face gets blown apart and mighty ugly looking when you get done with him.
Meta Knight may have the awesome cape, dark powers, sword, and mask, which this guy also had dark powers and a cape...
King DeDeDe may be the generic Bad King of Pop Star, and Zero may just plain creepy...
But this guy is basically like Ghadius from Klonoa, which I loved before the remake when it was known as Door to Phantomile on PS. :)
I think all Dream-Based stories and bosses of things like the Klonoa and Kirby series need to come back. Zero Three? What about this guy? Only saw him once.
And you know how it is... Some series are so massive... I mean, I of course never finished a series like Kirby, even though I probably should somehow.
You can't say that for at least one long series you love you actually experienced the whole thing, at least a lot of you people. XD
@AkumaUchitoru Weather you know it or not, he came back, not in a game, but in the animated show.
Remember the guy with the shades in the intro that runs the monster store for King DeDeDe? That is Nightmare, but more older when he's retired from his tasks of fighting the pink puffball.
@RetroVGN That's his salesman. Derp. Nightmare is always in the shadows in the background. And he hadn't fought Kirby yet. I think he does in the movie.
@AkumaUchitoru Yeah the remake was shit. Not Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland, that was a wonderful remake, the Klonoa remake was shit, while Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland was the shit to play.
@AkumaUchitoru You should speak to HAL Laboratory and Nintendo about it, on the phone and E-Mails. :D I'll support you. Tell em' RetroVideoGameNerd said "Bring back Nightmare, with or without HD display".
Kirby's Adventure was such a memorable game for me. I remember thinking that this game was the first one I'd played where it had a massive plot-twist at the end (boss-wise).
I'd rather have a snapshot of his sprite in Kirby's Adventure. But hey, the official art isn't that bad.. Just.. a Lot different than hat I thought the Nightmare was back then. I thought he was a vampire and stuff.
