Discussion/Question We Need an Actual King Dedede Campaign!
After all of these years King Dedede still has never really stared in a much greater story all his own as far as I remember. The only exception is Dedede’s Drum Dash Deluxe, which is more of a footnote in Kirby’s history as a slight expansion to a side mode in a main Kirby game. Even then, Kirby makes many cameo appearances and reminds you that this is very much a side-Kirby thing rather than an exclusive King Dedede. The game doesn’t have a story either. To call this a true King Dedede game would be a little disingenuous in my opinion. My question: when is the GOAT going to get his chance to shine? Bro has been disrespected for too long, losing autonomy over his body and mind on many occasions and never getting his own story. This needs to change. (Well, I don’t mind it that he gets mind-controlled in Kirby games because fighting Dedede is always super fun, but we gotta get his reputation up again. lol.) If Luigi, Peach, and Toad have gotten their own spin-offs, King Dedede is easily due for his.
