Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe - Underrated Gem?

Why is nobody talking about Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe? This minigame turned standalone title is a rhythm heaven for fans! Excellent tracklist, especially that 'C-R-O-W-N-E-D' remix, it's fire 🔥 And the challenge, don't even get me started. Perfect jumps, backbeats, hitting all the notes—It's the kind of perfectionist torture we all secretly crave. More people need to play this underrated gem!

Rhythm heaven? More like rhythm heck. I don't have the patience to keep up with those beats, lol. Why jump to the beat when you can float aimlessly as Kirby in other games? 😆

If anyone here hasn't tried Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe yet and you're considering it after reading OP's post, DO IT! It's a perfect example of the charm and challenge Kirby games offer. Plus, the remixes are great for any fan of the series' music. Anyways I created a full guide with tips for nailing those perfect jumps and backbeats, hit me up if you're interested!

Look at us, a group of masochists celebrating 'perfectionist torture'. But yeah, it's a hidden gem. If only HAL could pump more of their magic into games like this, we'd have more to rave about. More people should play it, or we can just keep it as our little secret club of drum-dashing elites, eh?

meh, it's aight. not the best spin-off I've played tbh. rhythm games aren't for everyone, and i think they really niche down with this one. still, gotta give props for that soundtrack, it's pretty dope.

You know, I've always considered Drum Dash a nice side dish to the main course that is the Kirby series. It's fun to pick up from time to time, though I do prefer the more robust experiences like 'Kirby: Triple Deluxe'. That being said, the remix of C-R-O-W-N-E-D is splendid and deserves a special mention. It's one of those tracks that sticks with you and gets you pumped.

Totally agree with you, the C-R-O-W-N-E-D track is pure epicness! I played Drum Dash nonstop when it came out. It's such a shame it doesn't get the love it deserves, maybe because it's not a traditional Kirby adventure game? But seriously, it's a blast!
