Refresh your browser bro, that got fixed. Yeah, the soundtrack that came with it is great and the presentation of the whole package is just really good all around. I wish they'd put this much care into their Mario collection.

I just erased an "l" was all.
And you're not the first person I've encountered that's compared the kirby collection to mario.
From what I saw (well, HAVE), the mario 25th collection has a really awesomely done up box, and it has two cases, one with a brief look at most of the main mario games with a comment from each of the developers on it, and some art. Also, a disk containing one soundtrack from each of the main mario games, followed by a series of sound effects, which, admittedly, make it a little hard to listen to on autoplay (actually having woken me multiple times from sudden "DING!" coin sounds after mario galaxy stuff stops in the middle of the night). And the game disk itself is a literal snes rom of mario all-stars for the super NES. And I'm not sure if it's just me, but I have experienced it on multiple wiis, there seems to be an ever so slight delay in controls. And it's just enough to screw with my timing. I am not really pleased in that aspect, but it's cool playing it.
For the 20th kirby collection, the box is a little podunk in comparison, but inside is a book with a detailed look at ALL the kirby games, including remakes and spin-offs, and it has all sorts of trivia, art, and even small little in-book activities (mostly trivia, but some are "look for this" in it). And not only just that stuff, but even little clips of all the instruction booklets showing off bits of how they were looking and their aim on design, and even some magazine covers featuring kirby games! (R.I.P. Nintendo Power...). And in the lone case (whose art actually has a bit of history to it, if you read the book) contains a musical disk containing at LEAST two tracks from all the main kirby games, a few spin-offs, and even remakes. Not to mention 3 all new tracks added, such as a live symphony version of gormet race to green greens! And the game contained within itself has not only 6 kirby games packaged almost flawlessly (gamecube controls for super star and Dreamland 3 are kinda wonky, you have to use a GC controller to see), and even New Challenge Stages using the Kirby's Return to Dreamland engine and featuring a familiar figure for a host, having 3 all new worlds to play, and even the return of, to me, a really sweet power. And if THAT is not enough for you, there's a "museum" of all the years from Kirby's Dreamland to when the Dream Collection was released that each have about 3 random facts about events that occurred in those years, and it has even further details on every kirby game known to man, along with video demonstrations of each and every game so you can see what they were like, no speculation required! AND! EVEN THOUGH I HATE THE 4KIDS VERSION OF IT, IT DOES. INDEED. Have 3 episodes of the kirby anime. Yep. 3 full episodes for one's viewing pleasure, even including the pilot episode. This, truly, is the "dream" collection.
Have I ever mentioned how so worth it this game is? If I had to have one game, it would be this. And I have it.
Not to mention, Kirby is a big inspiration to me to begin with, and playing these games actually helped build confidence in myself. And I have a (now outdated, DARN YOU RTDL!
) Fighter Kirby rear-view-mirror thinger dangling in my car. *Ahem* That is all.
edit: almost forgot to mention, though 4kids need not any explanation (hopefully), there are a good amount more reasons why I prefer the original version of the anime to the 4kids version. One reason being that over half of them have been subbed, back when 4kids was still actively raping the show, by fans, and through said transcribed lettering I have learned a tad bit o' japanese. This is far more than I can say for an entire year of spanish class in 9th grade, especially as I watched all these episodes in about a week or so.
MARU, KAITE MARU!
That is truly all this time.
