Densetsu no Stafy Taiketsu! Dire Kaizokudan (lit. "Legendary Stafy Confrontation! Daiiru Pirate Squad").Here is the link to the official website. It plays the main Densetsu no Stafy theme song: www.nintendo.co.jp/ds/yssj/index.htmlFirst BECKY, then Kazuki Saya, then Perfume, then ℃-ute, and now who's going to sing the main Densetsu no Stafy theme song next? That space bunny that fell into Tenkai Palace is Rampa (ランパ). I don't know exactly why he is there, but according to the opening sequence, it looks like he was being chased by the Daiiru Pirate Squad. Stafy's new look, in my opinion, looks sort of like a star-shaped pillow with a wide, puppet-like mouth. I guess he was made this way to make his look less similar to Kirby's current look. I don't know exactly why, but this game looks like it has a good chance at being released outside of Japan, but I guess Nintendo divisions outside of Japan are still trying to avoid causing many gamers from saying things like "OMG! Nintendo is too childish!" while moving away from Nintendo to play PS3, PSP, XBOX 360 and/or PC games.

And still none of them avaiable outside Japan. How is that fair? Also some bits of info:
- new ability: transform into creatures, such as a dragon - Dranpa suit Stafy: breathe fire that burns rubble - We’ve seen one other transformation that deals with a seal - second player can play as Stapy during boss battles and select areas - Stapy: wall jump and block-breaking spin attack - to collect everything in the game, Stapy will have to be utilized - July 10th in Japan, no NA release

Transforming into creatures? I think you are thinking of the suits that have been used ever since the first Densetsu no Stafy game.

According to Siliconera the co-op function requires only a single copy of the game and the 2nd player uses DS Download play to join in. Now that is very, very cool.

I don't know why Nintendo insists on keeping this franchise Japan-exclusive. I really don't care if it looks childish as long as the gameplay itself is really good. That must be why it got four sequels, right? It must be really good, right? Kirby looks childish but that didn't stop Nintendo from releasing his games here in North America.

What's wrong with Stafy's mouth? He looks really goofy.
Strange it won't appear outside Japan after he appeared in Brawl, I figured he would get the Fire Emblem treatment.

The Kirby series has been around since the early '90s and was a success back then. It is one of Nintendo's best franchises in their opinion. Right now, Nintendo of America is still making Kirby look angry to make him look "kewl" or less childish since the release of Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land. Most people prefer characters with unhappy faces like Sasuke (Naruto series), Mega Man X (Mega Man series), Zero (Mega Man series), Akuma/Gouki (Street Fighter series) and Shadow the Hedgehog. I know some of them made happy faces before, but they are commonly seen unhappy and "kewl". People are not actually saying that the fifth Stafy game will not be released outside of Japan. They are actually saying that Nintendo hasn't announced the U.S., Australia nor Europe release date, yet.

The word you're looking for is "badass", Parrot. Mind you, there are varying varieties of "badass", and that particular one is the stereotypical kind.
Kirby really is badass, but in the "too innocent and mute to realize he just wrecked Meta Knight's ship" badass, not the other kind.

Famistu's review score for this game is 31/40 (8 / 7 / 8 / 8).
Nice to the score over 30 but I thought it was going to be higher though.
Also I have to say that the rabbit Rampa in the space suit reminds me of Sandy Cheeks from that SpongeBob SquarePants cartoon.
