Kirby's first console platform game since the Nintendo 64™ days introduces an amazing new look based on animated yarn and a world of cloth and textiles. The creative approach is woven directly into the game play and allows the ever-morphing Kirby™ to take on a variety of new forms. It's a one-of-a-kind platformer that lets players explore high and low for hidden objects and fun adventure.

Features:
The look of the world is stunning, but it's also interactive. Pulling on stray threads might reveal hidden areas. When Kirby literally goes behind the scenes, the virtual fabric warps and bends to show his location.
Thanks to his versatile yarn composition, Kirby can take on a variety of forms both in his common actions and when he transforms into powerful vehicles.
When Kirby dashes, he zips around as a car. In water, he turns into a submarine. At times he can even transform into a massive robotic tank, a UFO and other vehicles.
Two players can play through the entire game together (additional accessories required and are sold separately).
Gems and collectible items are scattered throughout the environments for players to find.

The game looks really cute, a nice twist on a classic franchise. It kinda makes me wish I had a Wii. Nice to see Nintendo keeping 2d gaming alive~

It's weird how the 2 most suprising E3 moments for me are so different.
Raiden chopping up a watermelon and Kirby yarning together a level~

So they got dumped right into a boss-fight.. and then had to give up the console to someone else when they got to the clear screen? Oh man I would have been so annoyed xD I hate picking up a game at a boss fight uuugh. HAVING SAID THAT, this looks adorable

The only Kirby game I've ever played was Kirby's Dream Land for the Game Boy

so I've been out of this franchise for a while, but yeah~ this looks so sweet, and looks like it makes good use of the Wii functionality without being too gimmicky!

The look of the game kind of reminds me of Yoshi's Island. Those screenshots in the first post here are sweet colourful eye-candy

I can't believe I missed this thread. I'm a huuuge Kirby fan, got plushies and everything

I'm seriously considering getting a Wii just for this game. It really does look Epic. Love the design.. and look at the new transformations!! I mean, fish, surfer, truck... it all looks great fun.

New stuff I like:
