Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land is often considered to be one of the most difficult games of all time. Nintendo has even unofficially gone on-record saying that Kirby is intended for hardcore gamers only, for people who truly want to test their skill.

Can You Beat Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland Without Any Copy Abilities? (in text form)
Up first is Level 1, who’d have guessed that. This being the first level, things are off to an easy start. The first time I found a fireman I accidentally hit down and absorbed his soul. This was the first of many, many resets. For the sake of honesty I’ll tell you that I’m playing this on an emulator. Nightmare in Dreamland does have a way to reset the game, press A+B+Start+Select and you’ll be returned to the main menu. I didn’t want to do that every single time I became a god by mistake. Instead, I made a quick save in the overworld and went back to before I started the level rather than reseting the game. The effect is the same, it just saves a little time.
Then, I had an idea, a better idea than the time I thought to make nachos after multiple shots and ended up setting off my smoke alarm. The solution to that problem was to disable off all power to my apartment and manually disable that smoke detector by removing the battery and unplugging it. The guys who found that during an apartment inspection were not happy that I rendered 33% of my smoke detectors inert.
I ran a poll on Twitter asking if it would be better to do a No Copy Abilities run, or a No Damage run. That poll was a ruse. The second I posted it I knew exactly what I was doing. Catch a juice box and put on your nicest pair of jorts. The real title of this video is Can You Beat Kirby: Nightmare in Dreamland Without Any Copy Abilities and Without Taking Any Damage? That’s right, I’m doing them both at the same time.
I went back to the beginning, to the dark times of the long ago, to the first level of the game and began my journey again. Level 1-1 is about as easy as it was the last time, this is, after all, still a Kirby game. If you’re wondering about rules, damage is damage and enemies can be eaten as long as they don’t give me any sort of ability. If I take any damage of any kind, I hit the quick load button and go back to the overworld to try the level again. Also, fun fact, I never once got to the top in that post-level mini-game. Level 1-2 introduces us to the invincible spiked balls, world war 2 era anti-airguns, and has the first mini-boss fight. There are many throughout the game, but most follow the same sort of pattern.
