Kirby’s Return to Dream Land is the best Nintendo Wii game of October 2011. The game is the first traditional Kirby title since the Nintendo 64's Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, and ironically, has been in development since that game launched in 2000. So it would have been a shame if "Kirby's Return to Dream Land" didn't win "game of the month" honors!

For whatever odd reasons... HAL Laboratory just couldn't come up with a traditional multi-player Kirby title -- despite coming up with a number of innovative Kirby titles over the past decade. To be fair, it wasn't until 2009 when Nintendo released their first 4 player Mario platformer (New Super Mario Bros. Wii).

If you're looking for another innovative Kirby title -- you might be disappointed with Kirby’s Return to Dream Land, because the game rehashes ideas from previous Kirby titles. To top that off, the game looks like a first generation GameCube title.

If you've been longing for some good ol' fashion Kirby nostalgia -- run out and purchase Kirby’s Return to Dream Land now! Here's a few details about the game:

Game: Kirby’s Return to Dream Land

Game Description: Kirby™ and his friends are back in an adventure designed to satisfy longtime Kirby fans and beginners alike. When an alien spaceship crashes in the otherwise peaceful realm of Planet Pop Star, its pieces are scattered throughout the land. Players must guide Kirby as he retrieves the ship's parts and helps an alien return to its home planet. This time, however, he's not alone. At any time, up to three more players can join in the fun and play as Meta Knight, King Dedede, Waddle Dee or a different color Kirby.

Key Game Features:

• Kirby's powerful Copy Ability returns, allowing him to inhale, spit and transform as he encounters enemies.
  
  
• Players can deploy classic and new abilities, including:
  • Sword: Kirby dons a green cap and wields a sword.
  • Beam: Kirby wears a jester hat and can shoot energy from a magic wand.
  • Whip: Kirby wears a cowboy hat and can lasso enemies.
  • Leaf: Kirby is surrounded by a whirlwind of leaves.
    
    
• The game also introduces new Super Abilities, which are activated when Kirby inhales special enemy characters. For example, the "Ultra Sword" Super Ability allows Kirby to swing a giant sword and wipe out an entire screen's worth of foes.
  
  
• Up to four players can enjoy the action together. (Additional controllers required and sold separately.) While playing cooperatively to progress through the game, players can join and leave the game at any time
