Kirby’s Blowout Blast details, 3DS theme and Kirby anniversary pre-paid card for Japan
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 2 Comments
Nintendo provided an update on Kirby’s Blowout Blast today. We now know that the game is due out next week in North America and Japan (likely Europe as well). The new Japanese trailer and website offer the latest details.
Kirby’s Blowout Blast uses bigger scrolling stages compared to 3D Rumble in Kirby: Planet Robobot. The requirement to clear the stage is reaching the goal. There are no copy abilities, so Kirby inhales enemies and blocks and sends them back out as Blaster Bullets.
