Title: Kirby's Epic Yarn wasn't a Kirby game at first.

Apparently it was going to be a new IP, starring a character called Fluff:

Well, at least we did end up getting a Kirby game on the Wii, even if it didn't start out as one.

...huh. So we lost a new IP, and instead got a very different take on Kirby, doubling as the first Kirby game in nine or ten years.

I'm perfectly okay with this.

Well, considering it's a franchise we barely get to see anymore, I guess I'm cool with it. As long as it wasn't another intercourse ing Dinosaur Planet fiasco....

That would explain why the gameplay seems very different from most of Kirby's games. I guess it's a fun little fact, even though it doesn't really change much in the end.

Yeah.
In my latest NP magazine it stated that he was a second playable character for Co-op mode.

It's good, mainly because there's like one major all-Nintendo news site on the Internet, and I've actually heard of new game announcements in Nintendo Power. Plus, they review games way earlier than everyone else. In fact, I remember at the tail end of the GCN generation, they reviewed a game that eventually ended up not being released.

I wouldn't mind Fluff.  They need to make that darn Kirby game that was supposed to come out last gen.
