Kirby's Return to Dream Land Hands On Preview

While at E3, I found the time to play Kirby's upcoming new title, Kirby Wii.

The newest Kirby console title, Kirby Wii, brings Kirby back to a world less composed of fibers and more of dreams. That's right, Kirby is, without a doubt, back in Dream Land, offering similar stage design and gameplay to that found in modes like DynaBlade and Revenge of the Meta Knight in Kirby's Super Star.
