The late Kirby appears at last
Late as in behind schedule, not dead. Though the way I play this game, yeah, also dead.

Hmm. This title is, in my opinion, more clever than 1942 for NES really deserves. But what the heck! I'm generous that way. Anyhoo, this'll be the next NES Works video — look forward to it, perhaps?
