![]() If there’s one criticism that I have of Kirby Fighters 2 it’s that the stages are so overbearingly colourful and the various attacks and effects so explosive in energy that it’s relatively easy to lose track of what’s happening with your Kirby. these stages are all small in scope, and designed to cause a short whirl of melee before the winner is decided.

It’s a cute little fighting game that people of all ages can leap into and enjoy, and while it won’t ever be found on the esports circuit, it’s for the best that it doesn’t try. Kirby Fighters 2 on the Nintendo Switch is a spiritual successor to that genesis. ![]() had a tiny few characters (12), preferenced simple mechanics over elaborate, nuanced fighting systems, and was generally content with being a game to play while drinking beers and chatting with friends. Given how bloated and meta the series has become it is easy to forget that, but on the Nintendo 64, Super Smash Bros. ![]() ![]() was as a modest, local multiplayer, fun-over-competition brawler.
