I would get seriously tired of that pink fluffball, who when controlled by my brother, would beat the living tar out of me. There wasn't a single character that I could use to take him out, and I would refuse to have a Kirby vs. Kirby match. I mean, just look at what he can do: All his aerial attacks are chain linked to do multiple damage; 5 puffs to get back on stage, including a final cutter attack that can also help him back up; the final cutter can also be a suicidal move to where both people are taken out; Kirby could suck you up, then jump off a cliff and spit you out to the point where you die and his 5 puffs and the final cutter miraculously get him back on stage; he can steal your move, which can be dangerous depending on who you're using; his rock move makes him invulnerable to almost everything other than multiple blows from the hammer or a simple throw; his smash hit is quick and effective, making it easy for Kirby to just "floorsweep" you off the edge and keep you down with his drill kick.

The game is MAD good. First off, two of my best friends (Kent and Kevin... but we just call him Warrington) are ALWAYS Samus. They boast "Samus could kick yo ass and lay the smack down anyway". I always get paired up with Kent's younger brother who SUCKS. Anyway, I'm the best player out of all of them, Warrinton second, Kent third and his brother a distant fourth. I will play all characters but I'd have to say that Captain Falcon, Kirby, Link and Ness are the best out of all the characters. If you are a supreme ultimate master at the game then Jiggly Puff is better yet. Why you might ask? He can 'juggle' guys in the air before they can recover and then use his super sleep move to killem. Anyway, this is getting long so I'll end it there...

Here are his weaknesses: 1. He is soooooo predicable, he may float many times but it is very slow and this allows a samus player to EASILY hit you with a charge. 2. He can't pack the damage, he's flying all over the place after 75% unlike other solid characters. 3. When he goes into his rock form (I call it the bread and butter mainly because it looks like a bread box...) he is completely open to a throw and he always takes it on the chin. 4. The move where you can morph takes too long to do as it seems the enemy has to be almost touching you. 5. He is very suseptible to Samus' corkscrew. The weird thing is that if Samus is just about to start the corkscrew and Kirby is just about to bread and butter, Samus always wins. I'm not saying Samus is the best (infact I hate HER) but I always have to play against Samus because tahts all kent and Warrington ever are.

Games like KI Gold, Turok, and Mario Kart 64; I also sold Mischief Makers, though I have a creeping urgency to see if I can find it again, thanks to Treasure's 2D goodness. It wasn't the best, but I'm a bit too nostalgic for my own good. And while I have to admit my list is quite long, I'm more worried about my Dreamcast's growing library -- since the N64's launch in Sept 1996, I've ended up with the 35 listed earlier. Since the Dreamcast's launch in Sept. 1999, I have 16 games. That's nearly half of my Nintendo64's library....uh-oh. On an unrelated note, I've been playing a lot more Jet Force Gemini multiplayer -- and it's a lot of fun. The two player shooting gallery is great, and for some reason, the standard deathmatch feels a lot more fun than most. Maybe it's the third person perspective -- or maybe it's because I continually use the female Tribal. And continually win.
