This game is unbelievable when I got it.Kirby is finaly out for game boy advance and I feel really great about it. Now that kirby is here he has over 24 incredible new attacks from all his amazing adventures. The greatest island on this game is ice cream island everyone thinks that this island seems tasty. when you play this game you can see kirby fly over things with his warpstar, battle his old bosses which are more powerful than before, and travel through many islands to save the world from the evil nightmares. when kirby fights king dededes monster all of his attacks will move even faster than before so he won't lose a life. The islands that are going to be on the game are
GREEN GREENS
ICE CREAM ISLAND
BUTTER BUILDING
GRAPE GARDEN
RED CANYON
ORANGE OCEAN
RIPPLE FIELD
FLOATING ISLAND
and RAINBOW RESORT.
Those are all the islands that are going to be on this greatest adventure game ever. Good luck Kirby.

Well.
The level design is usually very fun, though in some levels, you can have Kirby practically fly over the whole stage without ever doing anything else. You don't have to use this tactic, but it shouldn't be available.

It's very short. I finished it on a Sunday afternoon.

The final boss battle is worth the purchase alone.
Okay?

This game is AWESOME!

The world's coolest pink ball is back with all new copy abilities, bosses, warp stars, and tons more! This game is awesome! Even though it doesn't take long to beat the game, you can play it a zillion times! Kirby lives higher than my expectations though the name sounded kinda wierd when I first heard it. That won't matter after you've played the game. Its way different from Kirby: The Crystal Shards because if you get hit, you lose your power and there's no combos. You can also float forever. One of the copy abilities is kinda dumb its called sleep. But that's the only one. The others like laser, UFO, and needle are cool.
Multiplayer is also awesome. You can fight bosses and everybody with your friends. The sub-games are pretty cool, but when you beat the game, you get the coolest sub-game.

10/10 - Graphics: they can't make it better.
10/10 - Gameplay: cool storyline.
9/10 - Bosses: the bosses are pretty easy until you get to
DeDeDe and the nightmares.
9/10 - Duration: doesn't last long (even thought there are 8
levels) but you can keep on playing over and over and...
you get the idea
10/10 - Control: easy to control
10/10 - Overall: definetly one of the coolest game for GBA; a
must have for EVERYONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This is truly a great game. I had played the very old Kirby's Adventure for NES and I noticed that this game is a remake of it! Kirby's Adventure was one of my favorite all-time games. It's a fun game and will bring hours of joy to any one. If you have played Kirby's Dremland 2-3 for the SNES it is nothing like that. Those where some really bad games (i think). This ones not all about being cute. This ones about battling enemy's by taking there power. It's a blast, espicially in multiplayer. (Which uses only 1 game pack). And it is not as easy as it may look. Some of the boss battle's will take a couple for trys. I am so glad to see this game return. It's kinda hard not to recommend this great game to anyone (and everyone)!

One of the best.

I personaly like this game.it is so cool.You get to fight old
baddies and suck up their power.I think kirby and Meda Knight are so cool in the game.In this game you have to get this star rod back from King Dedede.You have to beat 7 of his underlings just to get it.Meda Knight is one of them,and here's a secret.
You get to see what he looks like under his mask.Bye bye

Kirby's glory days revisited on the GBA

Nightmare in Dream Land's story is simple: King DeDeDe has stolen the Rod of Dreams, which in turn takes away the people of Dream Land's dreams. It is up to Kirby to get it back and restore everyones dreams.

The gameplay is real basic, and to be honest, real fun. You run around the levels as Kirby who has the power to jump, inhale air and basically fly for a little bit, swim, and swallow hisenemies for thier abilities. There are roughly 30 moves, some exclusive to this NES remake, including shooting lasers, throwing large blade-boomerangs, turning into a tornadoe, or surrounding yourself with ice.

If you find certain secrets within the stages, you can unlock mini-games and an "ability gallery" which was cool. Some mini-games include grinding on a pipe and having to press "A" to jump over spiked portions of the railing while racing other colored Kirbys, or having to face-off with a handful of enemies by pressing "A" faster then they can so you can beat them up. There are more but I just don't feel like getting into it. As for the gallery, it's pretty sweet - you enter this room and usually there are 2 different abilities waiting for you to take them. Sadly, this game didn't borrow from the SNES smash hit "Kirby Super Stars" or even the N64 title "Kirby Crystal Shards" with the idea of combining abilities, but we can look past it for now.

The graphics are definitley an upgrade from the original NES title, and are very colorful and nice. The enemies style look unique and interesting, the abilities still look devastating, and levels are really nice looking for a GBA game. It sort of has a cartoon feel now that I think about it..

The music is great and really catchy. I can't really explain it - imagine it as sort of a techno beat, but much more...hmm..less serious and more experimental. The SFX are great as well - I love the sound of the bombs exploding or the firey sound.. superb. There isn't any talking in this game, but after witnessing the cartoon series and the N64 game of Kirby, I'm grateful for that.

Nightmare in Dream Land isn't really too hard of a game, and it isn't really a long game either. Sure there are maybe 7 different worlds with about 8 different stages within the worlds, but they fly by pretty quick and easily. What is kind of annoying is that sometimes the controls will be unresponsive - you'll be running forward, then wanna quickly turn around to attack an approaching enemy, but Kirby is still running forward and BAM you get hit. I'm not going to type out the ending, but lets just say it was sorta dissapointing.

To finish it up, I highly suggest you atleast play this game. Yes, it gets repetitive, but with it's basic side-scrolling gameplay, nice graphics, interesting levels, and wide array of abilities & mini-games, how could you truley get bored? Better yet, its a remake of an old NES game, and a good one at that. Go and play Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland if you haven't already.

Kirby Rocks!!!

I love this game for 3 great reasons. I'll tell you them.

1.I like it for the cool powers in it. But what I don't like is when you have U.F.O power and you beat the game with it. You then have to start the other level without it. And like most people, I have lots of favorite powers. Thier ball, tornado, U.F.O, Hi-Jump,backdrop, sword, and throw.

2.It's also awesome for the cool mini and normal bosses. The hardest one in my opinion is the 2nd to last one. it's a big bubble that fires stars that are translucent, and your attacks barely hurt it. But when you finnaly beat it, it's worth it.

3.The secrets are also very challenging. The hardest ones are probaly the 3rd stage in level 6, and the 6th stage in the 7th level...

Look,it is a very good game, Lots of shape-changing and boss-busting. And playing the game over again with your friends who also happen to have the cartrige is very fun. It does ,however, make it a lot easier, especialy at the bosses.

Why then,only three stars? It's simply because IT'S WAY TO SHORT!!! I mean, come on people, a game that you can beat in four hours can't have much ,if any, replay value. The mini-games are fun ,especialy the one that you get after completing the game in which you fight all the bosses one by one with only one life.
lets take a look at the ratings.

Gameplay 9/10
It's very fun when it lasts, but the enimies I found were rather easy.
Bosses 7/10
They are,at times,very easy ,but the one at the end when you verse the nightmeres is rather difficult ,and when you fight the one dude with a sword is pretty cool.
Duration 2/10
This is the part that hurts the score ( and i'm being giving when I give it 2/10). I beat it in about a total ofabout four hours.
Over all 5/10
I would sugest borrowing it from a friend or renting it. The two player game is worth a try. I can think of only one person who took longer that ten hours to beat it though, a person who I know and I will spare him the dignity by calling the troubador in sith grade, also known as the dark templar.

All in all, if you have a N64, get your hands on the cristal shards, or kick some butt in super smash bros melee, but save yourself the remorse of money miss-spent.
(P.S. watch Kung-pow Enter the fist today!)

An excellent game.One of the best on the Game Boy Advance.

This game is a lot of fun. Its the sequel to Kirby 64 which was one of the best games on the Nintendo 64.All platform style Kirby games are really similar but that doesnt really take away from how fun they are.The graphics are great and the music is pleasant and Kirby is one of the best heroes in video game history.This is one of those games that you can play again and again and not get sick of.Now for the pros and cons-
Pros: One of the most fun games available
Good graphics and sound
Kirby can copy enemies abilities
Ranks up there with Super Mario World and
the Sonic Advance games
Cons: May be a little too simple and easy for more
experienced gamers
Cuteness may be a turn off for some people
All the Kirby platform games are very similar
In conclusion the good outweighs the bad for me and people like me although more experienced gamers might want to stick to games like Zelda and Metroid.

I think this game is very fun, and much better than the classic version. There are more transformations for Kirby to use. The gameplay is great, considering the more sophisticated games I play. Though if you play this game a lot, it feels really short (I finished in in about 3 days :P). The bosses at the end of each world start out easy, but they get really really REALLY hard. This game has mini-games too. They are fun, and there are 3 plus one called ???? ?????????. Well, I won't give you the name of it, BUY THE GAME TO FIND OUT!!!
