"Kirby: Meta Knight’s Revenge" (1:22) Click here to listen. Composition Supervisor: Jun Ishikawa
Arrangement Supervisor: Noriyuki Iwadare• Copyrights for this song are held by Nintendo and HAL Laboratory, Inc.
• Check your volume settings.I was just thinking how it’s been more than ten years since I made this game...
It was in Kirby Super Star that Meta Knight rode out on the Battleship Halberd to govern Dream Land. This is a jazz arrangement of the music from back then.
WELL? How do you like it?!
After going with the "serious touch" of the Halberd for the Kirby stage, I’m now thinking that maybe this overly peppy song is a little incongruous... |

Well, I think the music is quite good. Although I have not heard the original theme so I can't compare.
Also it's nice to see Sakarai talk about his past as well.

I like the arrangement, is hyper. The bad thing is... they cut down the sample in my favourite segment.

Ya, I had that feeling too. But it's still one of the best updates in a while.

Rad, I like it. Remix is kinda goofy, but in a good way. Anyway here's the link to the original. Seems like parts of the second song from Meta-Knight's Revenge also show up, at the end. |

Brilliant! This is one of my favourite songs from my favourite Kirby game. ;D
This song is arranged by Noriyuki Iwadare - a brilliant composer who worked on the Phoenix Wright and Grandia series, among others.

I never thought I'd hear this as a jazz remix! I love it! It is indeed one of the coolest songs from the Kirby series. I was kinda disappointed to find out, though, that today's double Meta-Knight update doesn't seem to have any ties to old game releases or anything. I thought it might be KSS's anniversary or something.  |

I enjoyed this remix very much, as it's one of my favorite Kirby songs. The remix is good, and it's by a composer I really like. AND... this is the ONLY remix of this song I've ever heard.... so... I'm happy about that.
It's nice to hear that the composer knew to combine both parts of Revenge of the Meta Knight in there.

They cut out Taking over the Halberd!  Amazing feel though. It fits the stage too well, I think. |

I was expecting it to have a touch of Heavy Metal or Hard Rock before I began to listen to it. The first part of it made me think that it was going to be just the original, but then I heard it's an arrangement.

Man, I so wanted this to be rearranged in Metal or Orchestral. Ah well, at least it sounds pretty close to the original.

I think that this is OK, but it's a bit too 'jazzy' for my liking.

By the way, the arrangement supervisor is Noriyuki Iwadare, the guy behind the Grandia series.
And because I don't think anyone remembered to check last time, the Fire Emblem arrangement was put together by Shogo Sakai, one of the composers for both Melee and Mother 3. He's also arranged "Kid Icarus: The Underworld".

Music wins! It helps soften the blow as this was just an old update.
