In GameSpot’s review of Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, we said, “While some may initially be put off by the youthful nature of Kirby 64, the depth of the power-combining system really adds a lot to what would otherwise be a game. of average platforms. Nintendo 64 owners should definitely check this one out.”

Kirby 64 is the first game in the series to feature 3D computer graphics. Coincidentally, Pink Puff’s latest adventure, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, is the first game in the series with fully explorable 3D areas and is now available on Nintendo Switch. In GameSpot’s review of Kirby and the Forgotten Land, we said, “Kirby and the Forgotten Land is one of those games that’s hard to play without constantly having a goofy grin on your face.”
