    What We Know—And Don't Know Yet—About World Beyond
    7 Oct 2026

    While we don't do a lot of speculation here on Kirby Conversations, we had to talk about the biggest Kirby news lately: the announcement of Kirby and the World Beyond! Sean, Bridge, and Gigi are here, and join us as we discuss what we know about the game and what we're still curious about.

    In this episode we make a reference to Dexter Manning's parodies of modern video game tropes, and you can find one of his Ocarina of Time videos here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KC656o7_zVk

    Why is Kirby's Dream Land 3 Selling for Over $1000?
    2 Sep 2026

    Kirby's Dream Land 3 has long been an expensive Super Nintendo game, but lately its been selling for over $1000! How did this game—which is readily available to play in the Switch's Nintendo Classics library—get so expensive? For this shorter episode, Sean, Bridget, and Gigi look back at the unique situations around the game's release, general changes in the prices of retro games, and other factors to figure out just how Kirby's Dream Land 3 became such a valuable and sought-after title.

  • Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land is a Remake With Its Own Identity

    Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land is a Remake With Its Own Identity
    5 Aug 2026
    If you want to remake a game, Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land is a perfect example of how to do it. It keeps almost everything players loved about the original Kirby's Adventure while adding new elements, quality of life adjustments, multiplayer, and even the opportunity to play as Meta-Knight. Rather than replacing the original, it offers a separate but familiar experience, wrapped in a new visual style and ready to be taken on the go with the Game Boy Advance. Joining Sean, Gigi, and Bridge today is writer, DJ, and podcaster Matt "Stormageddon" (@djstormageddon.com), here to share why Nightmare in Dream Land might be his favorite Kirby game of all time. And in addition to the main discussion, the group also closes the episode by looking more broadly back at the Game Boy Advance to share their other GBA recommendations. Questions or comments about the show? We always love hearing from listeners, and you can reach us at mail@kirbyconversations.com or submit your question to us on social media.For more from Matt, you can listen to their other shows the "Fun" & Games Podcast and Reignite.Sean also has a new podcast covering the GameCube, Dreamcast, and other games of the 2000s called Millennium Edition, and we hope you will subscribe to that one as well!
