Kirby's History: Difference between revisions

'''Kirby's History''' is one of the three main modes selectable from the main menu in ''[[Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition]]''. In this game mode, [[Kirby]] walks through a long and lavishly-decorated hallway to look at all of the games in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] that had been released up to that point (2012), as well as a few extra items. Each game or item comes with a description, along with a view of the box art and some demo snippets of the game or media in question. Additionally, a collection of real-world events are mentioned as trivia points to give additional context to each year represented in the hallway. The hall itself has a stop for each year between 1992 (the release of ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'') and 2012 (the release of ''Kirby's Dream Collection''), with an additional stop for years prior to 1992.

The music that plays in this hallway is a re-orchestrated medley of the [[Castle Lololo (theme)|Castle Lololo theme]] and the [[Cloudy Park (theme from Kirby's Dream Land 2)|Cloudy Park theme]] from ''[[Kirby's Dream Land 2]]''. This particular arrangement would appear again as the theme for the [[Game Over|Continue]] screen in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', the normal credits theme for ''[[Kirby Fighters Deluxe]]'' and as the results music for [[Team Kirby Clash]] in ''[[Kirby: Planet Robobot]]''. When selecting an item in the hall, the music that plays in that item's sub-menu will persist after returning to the hall until another item is chosen.

In the Japanese version of ''Kirby's Dream Collection'', the Super Famicom version of ''[[Kirby's Star Stacker (Super Famicom)|Kirby's Star Stacker]]'' can be found at this stop; this game was never released outside of Japan.

|''In this game, players didn't have to defeat stages in a specific, preset order. Instead, they were able to freely explore the game's vast new world and choose their own paths to victory. Along the way, Kirby could call his [[Color changes|yellow, red, and green Kirby buddies]] for help by using his trusty [[Cell Phone|cell phone]]. Kirby could also use new powers. One of them, [[Smash Bros.|Smash]], was an incredible combat ability that let Kirby unleash his [[Super Smash Bros.]] moves.''
