Masahiro Sakurai published a video today talking about the development of Kirby’s Adventure. This follows his previous one going over Kirby’s Dream Land.
Sakurai was actually told to make Kirby’s Dream Land for the NES, but he wanted to create something for both veterans and newcomers. That led to the copy abilities and the decision to work on a new game entirely.
“It took the original concept of ‘using enemies’ one step further,” he said. “Players who aren’t used to complex game mechanics can finish the game just by inhaling enemies and spitting them out. Whereas more experienced players can dig deep into the copy abilities. There’s something there for everyone.”

Kirby’s Adventure originally released for the NES in 1993.
