Kirby: Red Diamond
This crappy game will make you red... WITH ANGER!
Genre(s): Adventure
Platform(s): Game Boy Advance
Release Date: Around 2003

Kirby: Red Diamond is an unlicensed bootleg game that was released in around 2003 for the Game Boy Advance, although this is a PocketNES conversion of a pirated copy of Kirby's Adventure on the Nintendo Entertainment System.

Why It's Not A Star

  1. When you start up the game, you'll see two artworks of Kirby, and the second one is VERY LAZY.
    • There's also misspelled words on the first artwork as you can see: "Red Diamand Kibby's Star"
  2. False Advertising: The box-art claims that this supports multiplayer, when it doesn't.
    • Not only does this count as misleading, but there's even a website talking about it.[1]
  3. It even claims to be made by Nintendo. Nintendo wouldn't even make a game with such low quality like that.
  4. To make matters worse, back in 2004, there was an auction for said game, only for it to be taken down a day later.
  5. The box-art for this game is just a lazy rip-off of both Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land and Kirby & the Amazing Mirror's box-art.
    • For example: Notice how the words are all copied from both games. You can find more on the website on WIDtBSUbK#2. And to add insult to injury, this bootleg has the nerve to completely plagiarize not only the box-art, but the screen-shots from said games.
  6. Speaking of sloppy artwork, the artwork looks like it was made by Patrick Star using Microsoft Paint. That's how lazy the artwork really is.
    • What's worse about this is that this was rumored to come out, only to turn out to be completely untrue.
  7. Besides the efforts the pirates put in, this game is just a PocketNES conversion of a pirated copy of Kirby's Adventure (Which was already remade for the GBA as Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land). Here's proof in this video. What makes this even worse is that it's easy to find them at flea markets.

The Only Redeeming Quality

  1. Gameplay and quality-wise, it's the same as Kirby's Adventure, albeit with less-than-stellar emulation to boot.
