I’ll say this. They did a good job making Nightmare look like he did not belong in Kirby’s world, which was what they were going for. Everything in Kirby’s world looks cartoony and cute. Then you come to this guy who looks menacing.

There is a lot i can observe from this fight alone. First off, this the 2nd Kirby game and already King Dedede is helping Kirby. Makes you wonder if DDD was real bad guy. Second this pretty much got the trope of Dark forces of evil bosses started in the Kirby series. It's amazing how much of an influence this game was for our modern day Kirby

One of my childhood favorites. I can remember beating this final boss under my covers one weekend night. Aaaah that satisfaction.

That dogfight with Nightmare remains the single most exhilarating thing a person can experience on an NES.

I remember seeing someone in the comments say that as a kid they thought nightmare was some sort of alternate Kirby based on the death animation. With all the new lore revelations that is becoming scarily plausible

I love this game. I was listening to Rage Valley by Knife Party and got a weird vibe it was inspired by the nightmare boss fight.

I actually found it easier to survive Dedede when I didn't inflate to fly; I'd just jump over him and slide underneath him when he's in the air.

This boss was so much fun! I remember playing Kirby's adventure blind for the fist time and being like: THIS IS THE BEST BOSS FIGHT EVER-

Nightmare in Dreamland was my first kirby game, but i kinda wish i played this first so i could have more appreciation for it.

Memories 🙌

This shows how good the graphics can get on an NES

When I was a kid this game had the best twist ending. Dedede turning out not to be some irresponsible arrogant king bathing in the fountain of dreams but instead did his best to keep the darkness from overtaking his realm. But here comes Kirby under the impression that Dedede is just being an arrogant brat fighting through everything the king can throw at him, and Meta Knight knowing there's more to the story testing and training Kirby because he knows Kirby can defeat the king, resulting in Nightmarish repercussions. They saw Kirby coming and realized that he COULD win against the Nightmare. Dedede was terrified of that thing getting loose but once it was was all like "Okay, you let him out, YOU deal with him!" Kirby just goes with it and kicks anti-celestial butt.

I also am stuck on the floating orb section

Man it was a good looking game for a NES Title. I played the gameboy version as my first kirby game, then Nintendo Switch came out and i tried this classic. Tho the game tries to like load so many sprites happening at once the game slows down drastically when they're too many enemies on my screen. But nonethuless this game was an example of how pretty colors and backgrounds can be for a game

So, King Dedede was the good guy all along.

I like how in Kirby’s adventure, it is the first time that king dedede starts helping kirby or trying to stop something bad 2:20 8:31 “read the text”

It has taken me 18 years to realize Kirby Nightmare in Dreamland is a remake of Kirby's Adventure. Glad the remake seems to stay true to the original. A bar I go to has this on their mini NES.

Here is what I thought this fight was: Kirby wasnt listening to dedede, but dedede got scared and shot kirby and the star rod at nightmare. But kirby is far to afraid to focus on fighting because he was just thrown into a fight against someone he is afraid of. But this is when kirby learns that he has the power to do crazy things like this. And that's why I always thought there was that space god final boss trend in these games.
