## Transcript

It's 74 degrees today, which means it's
time to play Kirby and the Crystal
Shards. This is the first and only game
where the actor Billy Crystal played the
role of Kirby and he had such a horrible
experience that he never returned to the
franchise. Do I know how to use Kirby's
copy ability? Come on, man. You asking
me that? Really, man? I'm offended. You
really come to me and ask me that? Yep.
That's Kirby's best friend, Rachel. She
was never seen again. Color in your
little coloring book with a crayon,
Kirby. This game is ready to damn. How
the heck to use Kirby's copy ability?
What's cool about this Kirby is that you
can actually combine his powers to
create new combinations. See, it's like
a
basically you're like a little Kirby and
basically you can do whatever you want.
And basically, you're like a little
bicycle. Once you have the juice inside
of Kirby, you can yank it out of his
mouth and throw it at a little man. And
then um unless this little stupid idiot
ruins everything and ruins my whole
video. I'm going to eat this guy now
because I don't value his life and rip
my face off and throw it at the wall.
Okay, they were starting to lose me, but
they brought me back already. What is
wrong with this one? Why is he doing
that?
They can't do that, Kirby. That's not
right. It really is rated.
Why does it work like that? that some
things will never be okay and that will
never be okay that he does that. Kirby,
do a crown. I'm going to combine sword
with sword for super sword.
And now
I just delete the entire level with a
giant Kirby face that's bigger than
Kirby himself. Billy Crystal was foolish
for getting mad at this. Now, this is
one of the legendary crystal shards of
uh which the title alludes to. I'm going
to probably miss most of them because I
don't care at all. Unless you can unlock
the teaser trailer for Wall-E by
collecting 700 of them, and I'm not
doing it. This is Donkey Kong's house.
I'm going in there.
Oh, boss battle.
Oh, man. Look at him over there. He has
no moves. He just stands. He can only
stand in place. All right, that was But
that was just the first boss. I mean,
give you we got to face your fears
and die. Now, what if I combine sword
man with bomb guy?
What is that? Oh, he's throwing
exploding ninja stars. See, this one is
cool. That's King DDD, Kirby's greatest
nemesis and brother. He wants to harvest
the power of the shards for his own
devices. But then there's a evil black
circle eyeball man. Of course, it
wouldn't really be a Kirby game without
several demonic possessions. He's any
trace of DDD that we once knew has now
been lost to the realm of shadow.
You tripping idiot. You buffoon. Do you
even realize how to use copy's copy
ability? Oh, he's coming at me. He ran
INTO THE WALL. I GUESS THEY REALLY DO
HAVE WALL. It's okay to fail unless you
do it in such an idiotic fashion. Maybe
these exploding ninja stars will make
them feel better.
Dead.
Dead.
Dead.
Dead.
Dead. Whoops. Dead. Dead. Dead. Oops.
Dead.
Fireworks. Could be. Oh, this is this is
far more humane.
Dang. When you replay a level and you go
to the uh the boss's area at the end,
he's still gone from when you blew him
up with a ninja star.
Man, this song makes you want to change
like Kirby's ways.
Well, that thing was going to kill him.
Look at that sandwich for N64.
That's a nice sandwich.
Is this guy power?
What? Oh, this is the scariest Kirby.
Oh my god,
that's Ronaldo the painter. He designed
the box art. He's a really nice guy
with just like a little hint of pure
evilness to him. Oh, he's painting a
little Kirby for me to be friends with.
Now, this creature had to be censored in
the American release. It's extremely
graphic and disturbing, unlike the rest
of the game. Now, they are friends
because Kirby did that.
The little rocket is called Rocket Ralph
and he's the rocket that built Kirby's
spaceship and he's a great ally to Kirby
and now he's dead. The blue guy is an
honorable knight who has seen many
battles.
This is like a place of worship. So,
probably shouldn't be throwing ninja
stars into everybody's heads in here.
Oh, look at this fountain zone. That is,
man, this is cool.
They're cool on this DDD battle.
He's almost dead already.
What the heck is that? You can't show
that in an M-rated game. Oh, look at the
poor DDD. Now look what it happened to
him. All right, let's eat him.
Dang. Look at these little trees. What?
They're cool for this, man. I like this.
Kirby, shoot that guy. Will the apple go
all the way over to him? Yeah, it does.
Cool.
Wow. Oh, that's cool. This has got to be
one of the better looking N64 games.
There's so much style and character to
the presentation. This is the stupidest
looking cactus ever. There is no excuse
for how bad this is. Is that a hatchet?
Look out.
It's all three-dimensional. I feel like
I'm really there.
Rock fire.
Oh, volcano Kirby. His shield is
blocking it all. Stupid volcanoes.
Oh, you're just going to stab me through
a pillar. Okay, we're playing Dark Souls
now. The shard is mine.
I'm going to combine the power of spikes
with the power of fish. Oh,
they were starting to lose me. But now
you get to ride DDD.
It's back to good now. The treasure of
the teeth. Maybe if I combine bomb and
toothbrush, I can get it. Flam and flame
creates phoenix.
I love this one.
Now, what if we get dual ice? What's
that going to be?
Whoa.
What's he got? He's got a fork. I did
not think I would be stabbing cactuses
with a syringe in this game. I love this
sword. It's so funny.
A dancing guy.
A guy. Oh. Oh crap.
This is so messed up.
Can you get paracas as a power? We'll
never know. Look at the little elephant
with stand castle man. It make me want
to change my ways. Look at that
magnificent blue sky. There's not a
single cloud.
Tap dancing Kirby. Drill Kirby.
Can I just do this through the entire
game now? Where's this penguin now? Get
that poor penguin. Kirby, man, you're
evil.
Now he's going to eat all his friends.
Oh. Oh. Oh. Stop. Stop. I'm stuck. Not
this time.
Oh my god. Oh.
Wait.
How is he lighting the fuse underwater?
I'm subtracting two points for that. The
levels in this game are like really
blank and open, but they look
incredible. [ __ ] move. It was you all
along.
You've been watching Smackdown. Now,
what's really, really bad about the
weapon that I have right now is that
once I throw it, I can no longer swim.
See how that could be kind of bad?
There. I win. I win. Rut swim.
Here we go. Come over here. Yeah, just
stand in that. There you go. Boom. Boom.
Boom. Boom. Okay, he's out of there.
Darth Maul. This is before that even
came out. Now I am a fish that cannot
even move at all.
This was before that even came out now.
Rick, that's my guy. Rick, you're so
slow. We're dead. Oh, wait.
Here. We can fly.
Okay.
Now I'll be a cat. Thanks for helping me
out, DDD. Even though I ate you earlier.
This one is dumb. I haven't tried bomb
and bomb yet.
Missile mouse.
Missile mouse. Kirby.
What in the world? I mean, it is rated
M.
Buzz saw Billy, you are no match against
demented stapler Kirby.
See
how is it getting even creepier than
before.
I'm so good at the Kirby franchise and
gaming in general.
>> One second. This penguin is outsmarting
me.
Yeah.
>> Versus Inferno. The seal was broken and
a new era of terror has begun.
>> I hate Kirby.
Hate Reggie. Hate Nintendo. Hate Dark
Souls. Hate PlayStation now.
Why do they all have to die just because
of Kirby?
I beat him.
We've learned so much from this game.
We've learned that the power of love and
friendship is far greater than being
able to turn into a demonic stapler.
Well, actually, we learned the opposite
of that. But we got to go in our
spaceship back home now.
Goodbye fairies. Bye-bye.
Remember to be careful when you turn
into Rock Rick. You can't jump there.
Wait, what would that
be?
