A Critical Look At The LAST & MOST EXPENSIVE Nintendo 3DS Game- Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2023
- Kirby's Return To Dreamland Deluxe is releasing soon and with that being said, we're starting off the year with a Nintendo 3DS retrospective once again! This retrospective will go over the final first party game released for the system being Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn, a game which released a WHOPPING 8 YEARS after the Nintendo 3DS launched in 2019. The Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story remake was a disaster, and that game only came two months prior. Another aspect is this game is CRAZY expensive even used. Even worse considering the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U eShop are shutting down. But it's worth it just for you. So how does this Kirby remaster hold up?
Luigi's Mansion on 3DS made sense because the Gamecube was originally supposed to have stereoscopic 3D, so the vision for the title was finally realized.
I think Switch would've been ideal, but that is very true
@@Demeechi imagine they already had the 3ds remake in the works too late into production to be scrapped and redone on the switch
@@SagyTity1i think someone higher up at nintendo purposely made someone develop it for 3ds and not allowed them to put it on switch just because they really wanted to fulfil the original vision of the game, and for some reason they decided to do it so late into the 3ds’s lifespan. i don’t think it was ever going to be for switch even if they had the chance.
Back at the beginning of 2022 I found this game at Target in the clearance section for $11.99, that was one of the best gaming finds I’ve ever had.
Wow that’s lucky. I almost picked it up at a toys r us in 2020 but decided I’d come back to it in a week if I still wanted it. Them the lock down happened and now it’s 200$ 😭😭
This was not lucky, it was the base Price, after it was sold cheaper because of overproducing. Now every idiot goes crazy and try to push the price into the sky. I got the Game too for 15€ and at the time i bought it, ebay was full of new copies for that price.
Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn and other 3DS remakes that would've been preferable on the Switch are a reminder that sometimes, market trends and preferences are much better than traditionalism.
After all, there's fun in giving the fans what they want.
Exactly
Nah, Nintendo doesn’t exactly align to fan wish most of the time, but they manage to shock you with the innovation.
@@QnjtGWonQNqVsbYyzjx4 they prefer the needs over the wants. Respect over love.
We are talking about Nintendo, aren't we?
The 3DS post-switch deserved so much better. Like it was still doing well and they should’ve made some original games for it as Warioware gold was the last original non-remake first party game for the system….
“There’s no way to add funds on the 3DS eShop”
I don’t know, should we tell him about the Nintendo website?
200!? From what I remember the game is 60 dollars, did it get rarer for being one of the last 3ds games??
You can literally buy it for 40$
@@rubenoesyou cannot buy it for $40 lmao but you can for around 90 lose 110 complete
@@WaddleDeeKnows maybe they meant $40 on the eshop? But physical is stupid expensive

“I paid 201!”
My response to the thumbnail, but jokingly
"Make that $202" ~Patrick Star
In the UK they can still be bought brand new for £40
There is no reason why this game should be THIS expensive.
Agreed
Unfortunately that’s what happens when certain games don’t sell well. I knew this game would shoot up in price so I bought it week 1.
@@RondoOfBloodXI bought mine back in the day on a random whim. Lol it looked goofy but it was Kirby. Definitely didn’t expect this but that is what happens with games, a lot of times the least expected shoots up in price.
I remember when this game got revealed and I was just thinking "what's the point?"
That's what I said about every late 3DS game.
Coincidentally, the last annual 3DS Retrospective for NSMB2 ALSO got the ranking of Tarnished Bronze.
9:40
well originally it wasn't a Kirby game, it would have been a prince Fluff game but at one point in development Nintendo told Good Feel to make it a Kirby game (i assume because they wanted a wider audiance)
That's true
You know what my personal headcanon
for this game has been?
That this whole tale is just a picture book,
which exists in the Kirby-Universe,
being told by some In-universe character
Like Haltmann/Hyness, reading bedtime stories
to a five year old Susie/ Zan Partizanne.
Or Magolor, reading to... his ship i guess😄
Still have a physical copy of this sealed. Maybe I'll make a few hundred dollars off this game one day.
200 dollars?! Really? Is it that rare?! My god! It better be good in that case!
Average third world country gaming experience with new games
in the UK you can still get a copy brand new for £40
$200!?!? Man, I've got to get this game digitally on my eShop immediately before it's too late!
It is too late
>he thinks it can be too late
@@knuclear200x no like there is literally no way to add funds rn it's hopeless
Just homebrew your 3ds..
@@LucasDanielCab5 You can still add funds
With Dark Moon getting a Switch upgrade it makes the 3DS Luigi’s Mansion release hurt even more.
The original Luigi’s mansion was supposed to have 3D but it was cut. So that makes me feel better about the remake.
I didn't even know this port was a thing. Apparently, no one else did considering how poorly it did. I'd like to see from you if it's bad or not
It's actually good but the problem is that it tries to make epic yarn a more return to dream land style. Which means power ups and a special mode with health bar
What did you think?
@@Demeech well I never played the port so I don't know if it's good or bad, but I remembered playing the original Wii game as a kid and I remember it being good in my opinion
At times like this, I do wonder if there's gonna be Kirby & Yoshi Crossover (both of these characters got games that are 'Arts & Crafts' themed)
There was a 3DS version of epic yarn
14:40 Should’ve been Demeech’s Extra Fury! XD
Missed opportunity 😫
I might actually give this game a go. I have played Epic Yarn on the Wii and I did enjoy the demo.
200 dollars? Imagine paying, I got it on the hshop
A wise man once said...
"Do what you want 'cause a pirate is free, you are a pirate!"
We will never forget it's wise words. (Sorry for bad english)
It was the last 1st party game for the system
No one's talking about the misspelling on the thumbnail?
Hey, Give us Bomberman fans a break. The fact that our franchise isnt dead gives out fandom the slightest bit of schizophrenic hope. And yes, we DO have a fandom.
I like Bomberman lol! I think I stated that.
We've got Dyna Blaster on the way, friend. After that, we must return to the shadows for a bit...but we'll be back.
What? $200? But why?
1- Is still on the eshop.
2- You have a modded 3DS.
There's only one reason you could've buy it for that price... This man is insane!
4:45 - Oh, I guess you linked a different accounts to your Switch and your 3DS.
Man has LOST HIS MIND
My big brother just bought my sister a sealed copy of this game last week. (We're helping her collect every Kirby game, she's 100% them all)
She ripped off that seal on the game so fast no hesitation, I felt a little bit of pain when that plastic came off lol
How much was it?
@@sahelebrahimal-wasti4829 I think he paid $98
BIS DX would've been too hard to effectively come back on the Switch but nothing will ever excuse this being on a 3DS
I would not be surprised if this gets ported to the Switch...
That game doesn’t even have any 3D effects… it doesn’t even seem like it’s worth $200…
Yikes. 200 dollars. That’s insane, and for a gimped port too? Yeah so the new copy abilities feel forced and make the game easier, and the new Devilish Mode seems sound until you meet the enemy that annoys you and removes the music. (One of the best OSTs in the franchise.) And the visuals aren’t as strong, and the sub games are ok at best. Yeah, so much for being an extra epic version of the best Kirby spinoff…
It's a very weird game
One thing I'll never forget was the discourse surrounding the 3DS how so many wanted Nintendo to stop making games for it and focus on the Switch, and loads of people screaming that the handheld doesn't need to die. DreamcastGuy and AntDude getting all that flack because they wanted the 3DS to die, it was an old system, it had it's day and it was time to move on. They were right, nobody was buying 3DS games after the Switch released. Both Mario and Luigi remakes? Flopped. Metroid Samus Returns? Flopped. Luigi's Mansion? Flopped. Mario Party: The Top 100? Flopped. WarioWare: Gold? Flopped. Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn? It flopped too. It was getting annoying seeing more 3DS games get announced in Directs. It's for that reason when the successor to the Switch comes out, I want all first party support to cease on Switch so it's not going to hold back the new system.
Onto the game itself, it's fine, but it's not so extra epic. The Ravel abilities are fun, but this game was never designed with those abilities in mind and they really ruin the whole point of the game. That Devilish Mode though is one of the most asinine things I've seen put in a game. This is not a hard mode, Devilish Mode is pure frustration. I watched a live steam of Meteorz on the final boss and he lost so quite a few times because of that Devil. It's not a fun mode by any stretch of the imagination. If this game got a Switch release, I would remove the Devilish Mode, keep the Ravel abilities but have the option to turn them on and off, flesh out the two mini-games, reintroduce co-op, and add a new story campaign.
But welcome back to the driver's seat, buddy! Enjoyed the video, and how you tore into Devilish Mode made the wait for this all the more epic! I can't believe how much this game is being sold for now.
All thanks to you for helping! Thanks for doing an analysis of it as well when I was revising the script. At this rate, probably best just to remake it from scratch for the Switch.
@@Demeech Aw, Grump. I'm flattered. :) It was my pleasure, and I'm happy to have helped with your retrospective! More Kirby content on Switch, the better I say!
This is why Demeech is a true nintendo fan. Looking back on Nintendo's history and hoping for the best when a new game launches while being optimistic and aware of Nintendo's misfires. It pays to be prepared for the worst.
2023 was the final year of the nintendo 3ds and wii u eshop.
There are like 7 of them in my local store going for 30 euro.
Stinks the 3DS is region locked
Nice DK Oldies reference, take your Like
I remember getting the bowser inside story remake for 20$ during launch I'm so glad I don't have to have buy it for 200 dollars
While I prefer the original Wii version more (bc it's the only one I have), some features in the 3DS remake fix the lack of content and provide more variety. It runs half the framerate (30fps) instead of the original 60, so that's a pass for me.
The Yoshi's Woolly World prequel on 3DS
Your inflections remind me of the judge Pianta
Nothing really to say, but I enjoyed this video. Thanks for making and sharing it.
I broke out my 3ds today, I can’t believe I’ve discovered this game today literally one day before its 4 year anniversary. I played the demo and I like it! Mainly because it’s so cute and the gameplay is neat!
I can’t believe it’s the very last 3ds game.
I’m sad. :-(
I hope you bought it digitally because good luck getting it now
@@samtheg1801 God I was unhinged typing that. I actually managed to get it for a not-so-good price but it was way better than the others being sold. Thanks for your concern tho.
I'm pretty sure the last 3DS game (in the states, anyway) was Persona Q2. But if you wanna get technical, there's also the eShop exclusives that came out since…
You can add funds by linking your Nintendo Network ID to your Nintendo Account ID and can either Redeem cards or use something like Paypal through the website's version of the eShop. You don't have to fork out for insanely priced Physical games until the support goes down in March.
H shop
Thank god I ordered this on Amazon back in 2020.
Watch "Hotel Mario Deluxe" releasing on 3DS after the death of the e-shop, making this video totally outdated because that wouldn't be about the last 1st party game on system anymore. 🙃
$200?! That's more than I paid for Pokémon Soul Silver. (About £100 which I think is around $120 but correct me if I'm wrong.)
I fine with this price for console but for a handheld title hell no even for kirby I know my limits with either overprice or microtransactions
extra epic yarn can still be bought brand new in the UK for £40
nevermind pac man still isn’t here yet can you track wherever it is???
So with that said I should definitely hold on to my copy of Kirby lol
Lore of A Critical Look At The LAST & MOST EXPENSIVE Nintendo 3DS Game- Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn momentum 100
I'm so glad I bought persona Q2 while I had the chance.
Lol this price for epic yarn is wild! Thought the price would of shot up first for planet robobot
Why on earth would I ever buy this game when it costs 2 times more than the original and removes multiplayer? It's not even 3D!
weird thing that this game released 9 years after the orginal game somehow
Good thing I modded my 3ds so I can get this game digitally for free instead of paying 200 for it.
I feel like your criticism of Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn not Using the 3d Feature is a bit of a nitpick, given that the 3d feature can be regarded as a gimmick and would probably make sense to be cut if this game was rushed out after The Failure of Bowser's Inside Story, but I can see where most of your viewpoints are coming from. An entire game with the Angry Sun would probably be not one i'd want to play, after all.
I've been using my 3DS since 2012, and have loved it dearly.
Not so much. It's called the 3DS for a reason
@@Demeech Fair Point. Still, Thoroughly Enjoyed the review. It's definitely hard to judge a remake of an inherently good game if it adds little new content, but I think you did a good job at it!
Also I don't really consider extra epic yarn as a first party game is still kirby a second party franchise in the end of the day
Kirby is made by Hal Labratories which is a first party nintendo studio which also made Super Smash Bros
Wow, glad I got it retail when it just came out
I would've been okay with the addition of ravel abilities if it was an optional mode. The fact that there's no option to turn them off and play the game as it originally was on Wii messes with the core game design. The lack of 3D or any New 3DS enhancements (like a more stable framerate) is just dumb. I think the Wii version is better overall. I know some people may find the game more fun with the ravel abilities and that's fine, but the way they break the intended game design combined with the inferior visual presentation makes this a no-go for me.
What's even weirder is that just 2 years prior, Yoshi's Woolly World, a much more graphically complex game for the Wii U from the same developers, got a 3DS port. That version made little sacrifice to the game's visual presentation and took advantage of the New 3DS to preserve the 60fps framerate, all while supporting 3D. On top of that, most of the gameplay additions were optional side modes and the one minor change made to the main gameplay was relegated to easy mode only. They also replaced the no longer functional Miiverse functionality with some customisation features. None of these additions mess with the core game design like ravel abilities do.
Because of these changes, which version is superior is a topic that continues to be debated. There's really no right answer because the Wii U version still wins in graphics (and by extension, visual presentation) and has local multiplayer, but the fact that it's not the definitive version in terms of content and the 3DS version can be argued to be superior one because of that is a testament to how great of a port it is. The 3DS port of Kirby's Epic Yarn doesn't really impress in comparison. The gameplay changes may be fun to some, but it's pretty clear the Wii version is the more definitive experience.
You can get this copy, complete in box, for $90-100 these days.
In Poland where I'm from this game is approximately 30 USD in store brand new + shipping
This reminds me of the Wii Sports Club video (Definitely the best one)
That's your favorite episode?
@@Demeech either that or Wii play
@@Demeech Its because it’s so obscure
I sure wish I was back into the 3ds when this came out…
It’s costs 50€ for a new copy on Amazon. At least in Germany
There’s this recently released game on Steam called Pizza Tower.
Maybe you should do a Trash Or Treasure Video on that one day!
I will once its on consoles
@@Demeech
Um…
I heard the dev team plan to keep it on steam only…
It would make for a cool Switch Port tho.
You add funds to the Wii U or 3DS by connecting your Nintendo switch account to your 3DS or Wii U account
Next time, get a used copy that at least sets you back at 30$ or less.
Jesus christ i never knew how expensive this game is!
$200 for... THIS?!
If you want the game right now, you’ll be happy that the eShop is still open😭.
I like the more complicated sub-games like Kirby 3D rumble 15:36 and these
Tbh, the abilities kind of contradict the underlying philosiphy for the original but I can't not agree that it is fun as heck
It's so stupid because this Kirby Game was sold by alot amount of copies under 15€ in Europe. Noone wanted it because most already had one. I wonder who pushed this price that high, because it's actually really not rare.
I imagine that even with the Switch successor coming in the next 12-18 months, Nintendo will be releasing a bunch of remakes/remasters/ cheap games that are designed for OG Switch for at least a year after that drops. The difference being that *should* work on the new machine.
Unless Nintendo ditch NVIDIA for a cluster of Cell processors or go back to dual screens.
Is devilish mode fun to play
Him: No it’s not
Me: Yes it is
Lol
I’m pretty sure that persona q 2 Is the last 3ds game and when I first bought Kirby’s extra epic yarn I think it was 40 dollars at launch
Good review of the game itself, though I don't agree with your take on how the games you mentioned in the video should have been Switch games. The 3DS has been one of my favorite consoles of all time and I'm glad it got the support it did. Mind you I say that as someone who also owns a Switch. The 3DS just has a higher level of portability that's not matched even by the Switch Lite.
Also, at the time of this video it was still possible to add funds to your account for the purposes of buying digital 3DS games. You just couldn't add funds via the eShop app on the console itself, however you were still able to do it through your account on Nintendo's website as long as you had it linked to your 3DS.
poochy and yoshi entered the chat
I remember this game on the wii
I often call this game a yoshi game larping as a Kirby game
did you mention the collectables that was added to this game
4:28 looks like we’ve got some pirating to do.
I think Nintendo has really gone off the deep end with this one I'd expect melee to cost that much but THIS game? definitely not
You can buy it brand new in Spain for 30€ or so
I thankful that I paid $40 for this game instead of the 3ds remake of Bowser's Inside Story.
200$ DOLLARS?????
Wow, i got it in 2020 for 20.
I’m so lucky I bought the game the day it came out
I've played the Wii version and I remember wanting to pick up extra epic when it released a few years ago but didn't since I had the Wii version and since it's nearly $200 now seems like I'm not gonna in the near future.
H shop
@@SagyTity1 yep I made this comment before I modded my 3DS but now I have
I think Kirby extra epic yarn added some more stuff and i would buy it, well the pricing is mad so I’ll just buy the Wii version
In The Netherlands it is €22 new in gamestores.
Yo-Kai Watch 3 is actually more expensive, physical copies coming in around $260 USD
Demeech I thought you modded your 3DS, you could’ve gotten the game for free
Is this game 60fps on the New 3DS? Would appreciate if you could confirm or not
This was a pretty mediocre port just to have something new for the 3ds in 2019,but at least you couldn't play Kirby's epic yarn on the console before this port,unlike Mario and Luigi Boswer inside story+Boswer jr journey
Geez 200 dollars last time I checked it was close to 100 dollars
This is third world country experience at buying games
For fucksake I thought I was going to be paying twenty bucks looks like I might just stick to getting the Wii version when I get a wii again next month
You got ripped off
Am I glad I bought this game day 1 for just $40!
Um, yeah. Glad I got this game CIB in great condition at GameStop before it closed. Missed out on it for the Wii(rather have it on the 3DS anyways). Love it, the 3DS could play N64, GameCube & Wii games but gets kicked to the curb when the Nintardo Snitch comes into play. They have easily coexisted, but whatever.
