Kirby's Return to Dream Land, known in japan as Hoshi no Kābī Wii (星のカービーWii, Kirby of the Stars Wii) and in Europe as Kirby's Adventure Wii, is a Kirby video game and the twelfth platform installment of the series, developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo. While Kirby's Epic Yarn was released in 2010, Kirby's Return to Dream Land is the first traditional Kirby platforming console game since Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards, which was released in 2000 for the Nintendo 64. The game was first announced as a Nintendo GameCube title with a projected release date of late 2005, but after many delays development was later shifted to its successor console, the Wii.
Kirby's Return to Dream Land features the staple gameplay of traditional Kirby platform games, in which the titular character Kirby possesses the ability to inhale and copy enemies in order to attain forms which give him a variety of attacks such as breathing fire or swinging a sword. The game supports cooperative multiplayer gameplay, allowing up to four players to control various Kirby characters, including Waddle Dee, King Dedede, and Meta Knight.
Problems
Unknown Pointer Error
Return to Dreamland crashes any time a video file starts playing, either starting a new game, acquiring a ship part, or in the story intro when idling at the title card; however this has been fixed as of 3.0-189 (r9a627e89fb2e)
The pointer error still occurs whenever accessing Theatre Mode, however, but the game is fully playable and videos are currently working.
Stretched graphics in subgames
Disabling external Frame Buffer will cause severe graphical stretching and flickering in the subgames "Scope Shot" and "Ninja Dojo" Simply ensure External Frame Buffering is enabled, and the sub-games are perfect.
