![]() No one comes to these games for the story, though. The tale of Magolor is essentially only here to give a reason for why Kirby has to collect a bunch of items in the first place. Being the upstanding figure he is, Kirby probably would have helped for free, but a trip to a new planet doesn't hurt.Īs with Kirby's last adventure, you can more or less ignore the story here. Upon collecting all these items, Magolor has offered to bring Kirby and friends to his home planet of Halcandra. To do this, he will need to locate five different pieces of his ship, as well as 120 spheres of energy. For Return to Dream Land, Kirby is tasked with assisting stranded alien Magolor with repairing his ship. You'll need to take advantage of every copy ability Kirby has so you can track down the countless collectibles strewn throughout. They can also be used to clear pieces of the environment to unveil bonus items and hidden locations. These give Kirby access to screen-clearing attacks that can destroy whole lines of enemies with a single strike. Introduced in this game are Super Abilities, which are more powerful versions of some of the basic abilities. From the copious number of abilities to copy to the straight-forward level design, the game is classic Kirby through and through. It's also not as enjoyable to mess around with your friends as it is in the multiplayer modes from the modern Mario games.Īlthough designed with multiplayer in mind, you won't lose anything by going through the adventure solo. ![]() If anything, the chaotic nature of four players sharing the screen at once makes the title even easier than it already is. The multiplayer options are fun, but far from essential. ![]() Kirby's allies may lack the ability to copy powers, but they are each effective in their own way. Whether as different versions of Kirby, or as franchise stalwarts King Dedede, Meta Knight and Bandana Waddle Dee, up to four players can tackle the entirety of the adventure together. It's a traditional 2.5D side-scroller, but with the added gimmick of co-operative multiplayer. But as Nintendo notes, the battery life varies on the games you play.Originally released for the Nintendo Wii back in 2011, Return to Dream Land is classic Kirby with a bit of a twist. ![]() However, both Switch iterations are powered by a 4310mAh Lithium-ion battery, with both sharing the same battery life expectancy before it needs a charge. With a lower power consumption, that would mean, in theory, that the Nintendo Switch with an OLED screen should have a better battery performance. The advantages of the Switch's transition to OLED screensīoth displays have their advantages and disadvantages, so the main takeaway for the new Nintendo Switch replacing the LCD with an OLED is that the device should provide deeper blacks, better contrast, a lower power draw, increased brightness, and improved image quality. But the OLED displays are pricier than LCDs and do not get as bright as an LCD. The pixels in OLED display work on a pixel-by-pixel basis, meaning it will only light up where there is an image to display, thus creating a better contrast than an LCD and has a lower power consumption. OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diodes), however, do not rely on backlights. However, the caveat with LCDs is that it draws a lot of power, which can be a downside for devices like smartphones that use an LCD, such as the original Nintendo Switch, yet LCDs are also inexpensive. LCD or Liquid-crystal displays use one or more backlights which is essentially a panel as large as the actual gadget's screen, to create a constant white light anytime you power on the screen, thus evenly lighting everything.
