To round out today's Nintendo Direct, company president Satoru Iwata revealed a brand-new Kirby game, which is currently in development for 3DS.
Sadly, all we know about the game—aside from a few seconds of gameplay footage—is that the title will be launching sometime next year. Considering 3DS gamers will already have their hands full with The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds and Pokemon X & Y, I think there will be plenty to tide them over into 2014. Plus, I know some of you all still can't pull yourselves away from Animal Crossing: New Leaf.
Are you excited for a new Kirby title? Does the 3DS need another sidescrolling platformer? Sound off with your thoughts on the announcement in the comments below. I must admit, I'm a little bummed they aren't going with the yarn visual style this time around.
