So, in case it isn't immediately obvious, I'm quite stoked for Kirby Planet Robobot.

I've always been of the opinion that one of the Kirby series' greatest strengths is its ability to make you feel absurdly powerful. Thus, even though the games are technically easy affairs overall, they're still just plain fun to play. Nintendo seems to agree with me, as they've been adding more and more super special powers to Kirby to make him even more OP. The Super abilities were flashy, but didn't give the player much input in how they performed. They were essentially using Mike over and over again. Hypernova was a step up, as it required a bit of cleverness to use, and wasn't just "Press button to win." But still favored style over substance.

The Robobot Armor looks to be the perfect fusion of "Flashy, OP Style" and "Technical, Gameplay Substance." It kinda reminds me of the Animal Buddies from the Dreamland Saga. I only hope it's not a limited affair, like NSMB Yoshi, and it can be taken from level to level. If it was unable to heal and broke down once it took enough damage, that'd be balanced enough to allow toting it to other stages, right? Here's hoping.

At any rate, have some fanart. Done in pencil and Sharpie.
