I always thought "American Kirby is Hardcore" was a phenomenon exclusive to the '00s, from _Nightmare in Dream Land_ onwards. Surprised to see it went back all the way to how the first game was advertised.
early JP commercials: waa~ kirby is so cute, look at all his cute friends! they will take you on a cute adventure early US commercials: kirby is NOT cute, if you call him cute him and his friends WILL jump out of the screen and beat the sh*t out of you though both seem to agree he's just a little messed up lol
(Fanmade 30th anniversary commercial script) (Kirby walks up to a laptop, then face plants on the keyboard) “Kirby. Not so good at using a computer properly… But really good at unleashing a mouthful of power! Happy 30th anniversary, Kirby!”
"He's a man of many, many faces. He may be pink, but he's really dangerous, every enemy he meets, then he takes all their powers. KIRBY, NIGHTMARE IN DREAMLAND! KIRBY, NIGHTMARE IN DREAMLAND! Beating up the bad guys, and taking all their powers.
@@siyahseeker Nightmare in Dreamland and Air Ride were made because Nintendo wanted to have new games out at the same time as the anime for cross-promotion. That's also why Air Ride uses music from the anime.
Kirby™ is well known for his ability to inhale objects and creatures to gain their powers, as well as his ability to float by expanding his body. He uses these abilities to rescue various lands, including his homeworld of Planet Popstar, from evil forces and antagonists, such as Dark Matter or Nightmare.
Not going to lie, I didn't even know there was an English version to that Amazing Mirror commercial until now. (Or an alternate version of the Dreamland 2 'Friends' commercial.) Some of the older commercials got a fantastic clean up job. They look and sound way better than they do normally.
I really want to know what is going on with the earlier Kirby advertisement, do they just go "pink non-human that consume stuff? yea that's some horror monster"
So is everyone gonna ignore the fact that kirby and his freinds literally went into a place and beat up+vored everyone inside except the guy saying the poem?
I like the adds from Canvas Curse onwards which feature someone in a really dumb looking Kirby morphsuit. I especially had no idea the Kirby running into the piano was from a 20th anniversary add campaign lol
Oh my God the quality of these commercials are amazing! I don’t know how you did it but these upscales make it look like I’m actually watching them as if they were brand new. Very nicely done. 👍
I remember Kirby games that I have in past years. For Game Boy Advance I have Kirby Nightmare in Dream Land and Kirby & The Amazing Mirror. For Nintendo DS I have Kirby Super Star Ultra, Kirby Squeak Squad, & Kirby Canvas Curse. For Gamecube I have Kirby Air Ride. For Nintendo 64 I have Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. For Wii I have Kirby's Epic Yarn & Kirby's Return to Dream Land. For Nintendo 3DS I have Kirby Triple Deluxe & Kirby Planet Robobot. And finally, for the Nintendo Switch I have Kirby Star Allies, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe and that's how I have kirby games from the past through this year even I purchased Kirby games in the Nintendo switch LIte like Super Kirby Clash as well. For now, I have 15 Kirby games💝
They finally made Kirby pink. Due to the original Game boy not being able to produce color, some of the staff refused not to believe Kirby was white until Kirby's Adventure.
We need Kirby Battle Royale Deluxe for switch for local multiplayer, online multiplayer ranked matches (to fight randoms) and online multiplayer with friends. Include all abilities from 3DS version and add a couple abilities that didn't make it in the ability polls long ago
@@walmart_enjoyerwalmart_e-mo4cj I mean...did you see the gameplay for Kirby's dream buffet? Literally the same platforming view from above pretty much lol
@@LeDucTube When your dodging the final boss and shooting it with lazers and and the music gets more and more intense... oh my god that final boss is so good
Don't you think that it's weird that in the OG Kirby's dream land,Kirby's adventure,and The Kirby nightmare in dreamland Commercials mention Kirby as a he.Yet no one brings this up
Kirby would be great in war. Especially the Kirby form the adopt a critter ad, because... just read this. GOD DAMMIT SOLDIERS WE LOST JEFF SIR I THINK ITS TIME NO ITS NOT SOLDIER YES IT IS SIR ALRIGHT SOLDIER GET ME THE PINK MARSHMALLOW SIR YES SIR KIRBY. (Kirbys language) yabba dabba (it means sir yes sir) OBSORB THE MISSLE. Yabba dabba FIRE!!! Yabba dabba KIRBY YOU DID IT!! (Kirby absorbs the soldiers) OH NOOo Kirby is a little devil.
How many rad teenagers are you willing to bet saw the second commercial for Kirby's Dream Land 2, thought it was the toughest stuff on the block, went to get the game at their local video-store, played it, and thought: "What a total rip-off!"

happy birthday kirby!!! :3
Watching these commercials from start to finish really puts into perspective how much Kirby's image has changed over the years.
yeah...
"Let's say you come across an evil tree" someone needs to add that to 20th century humor videos
I always thought "American Kirby is Hardcore" was a phenomenon exclusive to the '00s, from _Nightmare in Dream Land_ onwards. Surprised to see it went back all the way to how the first game was advertised.
I’d say the Block Ball commercial onwards was when they finally started portraying Kirby properly
The French Version Has A Different Feel Than The English Version. The French Version Is Calmer Compared To The English One.
You’d be wrong, actually - it was Super Star Ultra.
yeah.
BRO HE BLEW UP A CAT 💀💀💀
which is what you basically do in the game lol.
5:00 I am pretty sure that’s the sound effect for one of the Pizza Tower sound effects actually
Yep its the Peppino scream
early JP commercials: waa~ kirby is so cute, look at all his cute friends! they will take you on a cute adventure
early US commercials: kirby is NOT cute, if you call him cute him and his friends WILL jump out of the screen and beat the sh*t out of you
though both seem to agree he's just a little messed up lol
look at the JP block ball commercial, he destroys a building at the end
Rewatching these commercials, yeah Kirby was an absolute menace lmao
(Fanmade 30th anniversary commercial script)
(Kirby walks up to a laptop, then face plants on the keyboard)
“Kirby. Not so good at using a computer properly… But really good at unleashing a mouthful of power! Happy 30th anniversary, Kirby!”
"He's a man of many, many faces. He may be pink, but he's really dangerous, every enemy he meets, then he takes all their powers. KIRBY, NIGHTMARE IN DREAMLAND! KIRBY, NIGHTMARE IN DREAMLAND! Beating up the bad guys, and taking all their powers.
I like that they animated it in the anime style. Little did we know it would establish the series going forward.
@@siyahseeker Nightmare in Dreamland and Air Ride were made because Nintendo wanted to have new games out at the same time as the anime for cross-promotion. That's also why Air Ride uses music from the anime.
I miss the late 90’s/early 2000’s style of commercials
Yea all commercials now aren’t as creative and they just say what the games about and done and way to professional
These type of Commercials ruined Earthbounds success
They’re a lot less creative now
Same
Yeah, let’s just say the media got too pussy over time. So blame that.
Kirby nightmare dream sounds like it could be a series
It’s ironic that the commercial uses footage from the actual Kirby anime
@@redstreak9430 It was airing at the same time
Kirby™ is well known for his ability to inhale objects and creatures to gain their powers, as well as his ability to float by expanding his body. He uses these abilities to rescue various lands, including his homeworld of Planet Popstar, from evil forces and antagonists, such as Dark Matter or Nightmare.
1:33 kirby goes to jail.
7:07 kirby is saved from jail
Genius
Also at the title kirby looked like he enjoy being in jail.
Kirby's Adventure and Kirby Avalanche were genuinely good commercials and nobody can change my mind.
Not going to lie, I didn't even know there was an English version to that Amazing Mirror commercial until now. (Or an alternate version of the Dreamland 2 'Friends' commercial.)
Some of the older commercials got a fantastic clean up job. They look and sound way better than they do normally.
0:56 *Insert the rock eye here*
I really want to know what is going on with the earlier Kirby advertisement, do they just go "pink non-human that consume stuff? yea that's some horror monster"
I mean, that’s not too far off from the real Kirby
Makes sense considering what Kirby do in the games ngl
And they were right in the end
4:31 the ad that inspired a 3 season long arg

I’VE JUST HEARD THE PEPPINO SCREAM AT 5:00
yes. I noticed that too.
Yup.
4:59 what tha hell, peppino
Correct
7:07 - The best commercial ever conceived.
The TMK commercial thinks there's 8 Kirby games, there's actually 9!
That was the point I think lol keeps the surprise and all
and this TMK comercial made preview for a same name creepypasta.
TMK is literally Violet’s Blueberry transformation.
0:56 #OneToughCreamPuff
So is everyone gonna ignore the fact that kirby and his freinds literally went into a place and beat up+vored everyone inside except the guy saying the poem?
Plus they looked SUPER EVIL.
@@twindrill2852 yeah! Kirby literally just ate a guy with a evil smile on his face! I don't think the real kirby and friends would do that
@CarnelJr Faulkner yup
My favorite Kirby commercial is totally the Nightmare in Dreamland one it's entertaining
I like the adds from Canvas Curse onwards which feature someone in a really dumb looking Kirby morphsuit. I especially had no idea the Kirby running into the piano was from a 20th anniversary add campaign lol
You Want A Marshmallow
Ahhhhhh
I remember the commercial with the Kirby marshmallows that the guy was scared of.
"Rated E for Everyone"
While kirby 64 is rated Teen.
0:24 "He has a mean bite" Kirby has no teeth WTP?
my cheeks hurt from smiling so hard throughout this entire video. i really do love kirby!
0:36 Oh My Goodness Kirby Confirmed For The Next Street Fighter Game
🤠👍
Oh my God the quality of these commercials are amazing! I don’t know how you did it but these upscales make it look like I’m actually watching them as if they were brand new. Very nicely done. 👍
Yeah these commercials were uhh different back then
Happy 30th Anniversary Kirby!!! ⭐️
I hear peppino's scream!
1:28 I FINALLY FOUND IT
5:35 possibly the best voice given to kirby
MY EARS HURTS ;-;
*Kirby RBAY has left the chat*
Yes
Damn! The Kirby 64 one got dark!
These ads are cursed
love it
NOT TMK (Too Much Kirby) THE ANALOG HORROR 4:36
5:00 mama mia
18:11
THIS ONE GIVES ME A BUZZ!!!
I Don’t Remember If I Saw It On Live TV Or Not, BUT STILL!!!
0:45 "King Dee Dee"?
Kirby is shown as a menace until in the US, my god
4:59 It’s Peppino spaghetti from pizza tower!
They make Kirby look like a bad guy in these commercials
1:39 he looks like ray william johnson..
I can't tell whether we as westerners made Kirby too cool at first, or maybe we made Kirby too cute as we get closer to the present day.
5:38 HIS LITTLE VOICE I CAN’T
I love how even on the 3DS kirby still gets funny live action scenes
America tried to warn us about Kirby's lore strength
I remember Kirby games that I have in past years. For Game Boy Advance I have Kirby Nightmare in Dream Land and Kirby & The Amazing Mirror. For Nintendo DS I have Kirby Super Star Ultra, Kirby Squeak Squad, & Kirby Canvas Curse. For Gamecube I have Kirby Air Ride. For Nintendo 64 I have Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards. For Wii I have Kirby's Epic Yarn & Kirby's Return to Dream Land. For Nintendo 3DS I have Kirby Triple Deluxe & Kirby Planet Robobot. And finally, for the Nintendo Switch I have Kirby Star Allies, Kirby and the Forgotten Land, and Kirby's Return to Dream Land Deluxe and that's how I have kirby games from the past through this year even I purchased Kirby games in the Nintendo switch LIte like Super Kirby Clash as well. For now, I have 15 Kirby games💝
So the Kirby’s avalanche commercial is Ray William Johnson being forced to play by Kirby
7:07 I never see that commercial before.
02:00 - Kirby(s): "Hi!"
4:01 Kirby's Block Ball
PIZZA TOWER 5:00
ACTUALLY this commercial came in 1996
Kirby casually murdering for fun
I wonder why Kirby’s Dream Land 3 never got a commercial?
They finally made Kirby pink. Due to the original Game boy not being able to produce color, some of the staff refused not to believe Kirby was white until Kirby's Adventure.
9:12 I love how the entire thing was just; kirby is a tank, a car, a sub, and a flying saucer. . . get the game.
The fact Disney Channel sponsored a game where we fight an eldritch god that’s subtitle is “Destroyer of Worlds” is INSANE
Peppino scream 5:00
Kind of weird seeing Kirby being portrayed as mean and scary in early commercials.
They named each player the name of a Kirby character. Nice.
4:38 That's the guy who plays Dr. Silberman from The Terminator, Terminator 2: Judgement Day and Terminator: 3 Rise of the Machines!!
We need Kirby Battle Royale Deluxe for switch for local multiplayer, online multiplayer ranked matches (to fight randoms) and online multiplayer with friends. Include all abilities from 3DS version and add a couple abilities that didn't make it in the ability polls long ago
Well, considering the style of the game, they won't ever port it.
@@walmart_enjoyerwalmart_e-mo4cj I mean...did you see the gameplay for Kirby's dream buffet? Literally the same platforming view from above pretty much lol
1:44 Im pretty sure hes trying to say he killed his friend
9:19 final moments before death
If you can hear closely you can hear pepinno spagiti's scream from pizza tower 4:58
A lot of people may disagree, but I like the earliest Kirby the best. He was cute, yet had an attitude! Now I feel he is too much like Pikachu.
Nah he's a badass, did you play Forgotten Land by any chance?
I did not.
@@LeDucTube When your dodging the final boss and shooting it with lazers and and the music gets more and more intense... oh my god that final boss is so good
@@DonDunno Interesting
That's some "never got to the final boss in a modern Kirby game" talk right there. Kirby lore goes harder than Pokémon would ever dare to sneeze at.
Imagine a commercial that Kirby and his friends beating a entire country 🤣🤣
kirby is cute he never gets old
Fact: Kirby's Avalanche Is A Re-skin Of Super Puyo Puyo
The Kirby's avalanche one got me ;)
I remember these commercials when I was a kid
The old ads are the most weird ahh things ever, but they did what a ad should do: Be eye-catching
We might have to go back to that
Ah need a monster clobber that Kirby!
That's what we do best at N.M.E!
@@josephpschuster you better get it with our money back guarantee

5:00 Peppino?
0:58 poggers
1:35 That's Endless Mike from The Adventures of Pete and Pete!!
5:00 Ain't no way this is where Peppino's scream comes from
We can also get some one of those things
Did you know that the redness on Kirby's feet are just his feet. I doubted he would have toes anyway.
we went from comparing a ball with a big guy to a literal demoniac gods threating to anihillate the world and being stopped by the same ball lol
all usakirby commercials
5:00 PEPPINO SCREAM.
There was one commercial in japan about a boy drawing kirby and kirby ate the boy and spat him to a star. Bizzare? Yes bizzare
Go Kirby
Every body gansta till kirby and his friend walk in
Wasn’t there a commercial for Kirby 64 where the lady says “Kirby is… Well, Kirby is Kirby…” ?🤔
5:00 Peppino scream prediction
