Shout-out to swordmankirby for the time he spent an hour talking to me about a category in Kirby Super Star Ultra that he doesn't really care about but tried to help me with anyway.
Also, this comments section has exactly 64 comments!
Hope you all enjoyed this run! This was my first GDQ ever, and I was honored to be invited onto the couch to help commentate such an awesome marathon run. Congrats again to swordsmankirby on a job well done!
the let kirby eat craze was real tho
The best part of this game is when kirby rips his face off and throws it at his enemies.
i loved this game, kirby needs to bring back "fusion power"
They actually did it in the last one. Tho it's not as advanced as we'd like, at least it's coming back, so we can expect more on future episodes !
Advanced Fusion powers would be dope!
If you really love the idea of combining copy abilities, check out Copy Kitty on steam!
The level backgrounds for this game is actually gorgeous! It's amazing to see how much detail they managed to squeeze in the N64
For real! The background in Kirby 64 are so vibrant and detailed. I love the low poly aesthetic in this game! 💎
One of the best GDQ runs i've seen. major props to swordsman and the couch for keeping things very entertaining but interesting, and props to GDQ chat for being surprisingly wholesome during it!
poyo
All the "feed Kirby" comments from donation comments ticked with me since I'm sitting here sick killing time, so I watched it again and tracked everything Kirby ate in the run
*I only counted enemies Kirby actually swallowed
*I didn't count stars or crystal shards (the stars might be some kind of food/medicine though as gaining enough gives Kirby a 1up)
*I do NOT know official enemy names and didn't feel like looking them up, so I just did basic descriptions that should be fairly obvious to anyone who just watched the run
* * *
Enemies swallowed (and certain boss attacks eaten):
Living Fireball x9
Firebird x1
Stone Stack x2
Rocketman x1
Ice "droplet" x1
Spark Box x1
Bomberman x1
Bomb fish x1
Penguin x1 (really kirby, the penguin??)
Sparky slime x1
Cloud rider x1
Spikehead slime x2
Cutter Helm x1
lancer x1
plughead x2
1x each ability type drop minus cutter from
the miracle matter boss
2 doses of alien fart gas (or whatever the hell that was) in the 02 fight
* * *
Foods Eaten:
Max Tomato x5
Cake Slices x12
Manga Meat x6 (runner called it mystery meat...we all know that's the stuff in the can that says Spam, and anyone who knows their manga knows this stuff is actually Manga Meat)
Sandwich x8
Ice Cream Bars x12
Invincibility Candy x3
(how exactly do these even work? ultra power up via sugar rush?)
1up x2
(and what even are these, some sort of food/medicine that is not only shaped to form the term "1up" but also increases your vitality so much you can carry on after dying as if nothing happened?!?)
underwater mystery food x1 (shiver star stage 1, it made the food sfx and healed Kirby, but we couldn't see what this waterlogged meal actually was)
Fridge Power Food Drops x6

Is that a gurren lagan reference
@@jojoreference3681 a lot late, but yes, that was a gurren lagan ref at the end
Hahaha, best comment ever.
Kirby 64 is one of my favorite Kirby games. I enjoy seeing it speedrun
I'm sad they didn't show off that you can hold some enemies above you and have them do neat things. The...anemone? enemies will shoot their pellets!
Granted, that's horrendously slow, but still!
Edit: FIIIIIISH
I've never seen 02 being one-cycled! Then again I usually stalled the fight to listen to his amazing theme
God I loved this game so much as a kid. In my 20’s now and I kept my old 64 with my favorite classics and this is one of them. Never beat it as a kid and didn’t revisit it later on so I’m glad to see it on GDQ. Thank you guys! 💞
Wait, you can use the drill downward?! I've played this game dozens of times over like 12 years, and I never knew that!
Love this run!
This is my first favorite game. Love the music and care free vibes ~
It absolutely killed me when they all waved there arms during the second boss
What a great run and I love all the new strats! That Miracle Matter theme is still slapping.
Oh man this game brings back so many good memories. This was one of my favorite game and I would spend hours playing it.
50:04
i shouldve seen a 1, 2, Oatmeal comment coming while watching kirby runs.
I think I still have my cartridge laying around somewhere. Gotta love Kirby :)
that stage before miracle matter and o2 fight was fricken awesome.
swordmankirby seems like such a humble and kind guy. Really cool to see the best side of the speedrunning community. Great video and great run.
1:13:32 I was waiting for 15 minutes after donating to hear that message, and it was worth it!
great run and very entertaining seeing this game played at a high level!
Sad to see they never used Ice/Spike, which is probably my favorite power in the game. I always used it to just slowly float through the underwater current levels, taking in the scenery while practically invulnerable. Like a giant (literal) snowflake. Great for bosses too for its massive hitbox and ability to stunlock most things.
Not very conducive to speedruns though
I loved this game. One of my favorite N64 titles, honestly.
Those last few levels were super clean. GG!
Wth, is shiver star earth? I never noticed as a kid, but north and south America are clearly visible, and there's an orbiting moon.
“This stage is really happy”
Meanwhile shiver Star is frozen over post apocalyptic earth and basically all of humanity was either killed by the robot or abandoned earth.
Hey! Treat Kirby with Respect and give him some food at the end of the levels!
At 29:28 It is possible to get that shard using the bird instead of rick. As a kid i never knew rick could climb the wall so iv always used the bird not sure if its faster but it is possible.
Same. I thought you could only get it with the bird.
It helps if you've played dreamland 2 or 3 before this and know that rick could do that. Unfortunately I played 64 before those two.
Na cuz the bird gets tired of floating
Only Kirby game I ever played and loved it a lot. Great to see it ran. ^_^
THIS game needs a remake/sequel/expansion.
i wish they make kirby games like this again. its so nostalgic seeing run
I'd love to see this being remade
My first Kirby game. I miss my old cartridge :(
13 minutes in, and he's about as far as I remember ever getting in the game. Then again, I probably played the first 5-6 levels a billion times, so that might be why I remember them better than later levels.
Oh wait, no, I remember that fucking Magman guy. I remember getting stuck on him and rage quitting.
Kirby 64 is a classic
The hard hat is my favourite part of this whole game
I honestly think this game has better maps than star allies.
I just enjoy kirby64
Let's go
37:00 Ahh, the dynomite power, I remember as a kid I didn't know you could duck to put on a hardhat.
My outrage at it at least helped me understand that required damage is bad game design.
Looks like Waddle Dee definitely loves eating onigiris!
19:36 LMAO
I love this game but have actually never really played any other Kirby game! Are there any other ones that involve combining powers like this one?
Yes, there are, but not in the way Kirby 64 did it. In Star Allies on the Switch you can give elemental effects to weapon based abilities, like a fire sword or an ice hammer. Also the Curling Kirby from 64 is back by combining Stone with ice or water. There are also a few other combo effects.
There was also an other Kirby game that did something like that, but I don't remember wich one, because I didn't play it yet. Either Amazing Mirror or Mouse Attack/Squeak Squad.
The only ones that involve combining powers are squeak squad (although you can only combine a few and the game is kind of lackluster in other areas) and Star Allies (Star Allies is good, but the ability combining isn't exactly the same as Crystal Shards) if I remember correctly
Actually, as far as I am aware, this is the only Kirby game to ever mix abilities, which is kind of surprising considering how interesting of a gimmick it is. Some Kirby games have done some stuff similar to the mix abilities, such as the animal partners of Kirby's Dream Land 3, but 64 is the only one to use this specific system.
Sorry for the long answer by the way lol
Not really. Squeak Squad flirted with the idea, but only really in the form of adding elements to sword and bomb. I think Star Allies did something weird with the various allies you could get. Lastly Planet Robobot had abilities work differently depending on whether or not you were in the mech.
It's important to note, though, that most current Kirby games have about as many copy abilities as this game has combinations. Return to Dreamland, for instance, has 28 abilities, most with a wide variety of moves. This game, on the other hand, has 28 combinations, but most of them are limited to just one attack. Combining abilities is fun, but I don't think HAL is going to do that again, because of all the fan-favorite abilities they'd have to cut to free up development time to work on a combination system.
*TECHNICALLY* Squeak squad allows you to... but only with two different powers with elements.
Kirby Star Allies allows you to combine weapons with elements as well, but a whole lot of weapons can be combined with elements
Kirby got to eat ;_;
1:07:58 that short synch with the music tho
This is 100% what about the cards
1:06:52 Don't you mean Kirboy Bebob?
Why is kirby crying in the thumbnail
:( 😭
37:15 "neither stone nor bomb appears in this level" -- well, technically, they do *appear*, but it's on that minecart section so you can't obtain them.
44:34
*Y E E T*
boring game, cool speedrun
