Our local Goodwill had a store unload about 100 of these a few months ago. It looked really stupid from the box. Then I played it last month for a couple of hours and was blown away at the storyline, characters, level design. It is definitely a new kirby design that is extremely well done. Def should be going for a lot more than it is on ebay/amazon.

@DarkRPGamer007 Kirby games never tend to sell well in Europe with NA and Japan being where 99% of the sales come from

If Europe would have participated this would easily have over 2.50m

3rd best selling Kirby ever in America, and #2 in "Rest of the World." I'm curious if this is due to the game's quality, the Yarn element, the gameplay, etc.

I started this game a little bit ago. I thought that the fact that you couldn't die would make this game feel a little too easy, but I was wrong. The focus on collecting diamonds (or whatever they are) and the enemy's ability to rob you of them keeps you from feeling too comfortable (in a good way). That combined with this games unique design makes for quite a gem.

No prob spurgeon, I was just relaying that it might be YMMV. I order from amazon most of the time so it's no big deal to me. I just felt embarassed when I sent my buds and it was $10 more expensive than what it was. But, you're right about it still being a deal.

Metroid games are not as evergreen as many other Nintendo titles. Corruption sold ~half a million in its first 10 weeks. Other M is over 100K behind. AS soon as the holiday season is over, i dont see Other M selling in any noticeable numbers.

@oni-link it is a somewhat valid comparison. As much as i personally dislike (with a passion) Other M, i feel as though i can honestly say that sales have NOT met expectations. Metroid is (was?) a part of Nintendos cornerstone franchises, and while its never been a MArio-like seller, the series has produced well selling titles.
