Kirby Painting – Lalena D.
A fine painting by Lalena, who had this to say:
“I’m almost forty. I’m a gal that’s been enjoying video games for over three decades. I’ve always been drawn towards handheld gaming, thus I was thrilled to find out about Yokoi Kids.”
When Lalena is not playing games, she is likely zipping through trees down mountainsides on her mountain bike or pretending she’s thirteen carving bowls on her skateboard. Really, she’s just stuck at thirteen years of age. Hit her up on Twitter.
Kirby’s Dream Land – Kirby’s Dream Collection – DBPG
Jim takes a look at it the only way he can, through the Kirby’s Dream Collection, which is a Wii exclusive that comes with a ton of extra great content.
Drink a Beer and Play a Game are two friends, Jim and Brian, who enjoy talking about games as much as they enjoy trying new beers.
Kirby’s Dream Land – EpicLuca
A video made by the person who picked the game this month, EpicLuca.
You can check out more of EpicLuca’s stuff over at Gamebreaker Studios.
Kirby’s Dream Land – Josh Nickerson
Josh Nickerson draws comics and plays video games, but not nearly as much as he’d like to. You can find his silly comics at joshnickerson.com
Kirby’s Dreamland on Drums – Angrylanks
“Kirby ate my dog, spit him out in the shape of a star, and I never saw him again. #deathtokirby” – Angrylanks
Matt AKA Angrylanks plays drums over video game songs, plays games very fast and eats Indian food twice a week. Check him out.
December 2019 : Kirby’s Dream Land (1992)
It’s December, so that means Yokoi Kids is two years old! Who would have thought it lasted this long!? Thanks to everybody who kept a game-of-the-month collective for a dead console alive and kicking. Anywho, this month’s game is shocker that it hasn’t been picked yet.
It was picked by Epicluca who had this to say about it:
“Now what to say about Kirby’s Dream Land? You would think not much as it’s a fairly simple, short game that certainly is a product of its’ time, and you would be right, but it’s also so much more than that. Kirby’s Dream Land started a franchise that has lasted to this day, but was also a game that came out right around the time I started playing video games, so it holds a special place for me in that respect. And while not my favorite Kirby game, it is one that I can keep coming back to as I have beaten it countless times over the years, most of which came when I was a kid, as well as many times as an adult, really just showing it off to others who are unfamiliar with the game as it is one that is worth sharing with everyone. I personally think this is a top tier game for the Gameboy and one that you can easily pick-up and play.”
It can be picked up for $10, but you probably already have it. It’s also on the Nintendo 3DS store. Get on it!
