- most people don’t have anything other than stereo
- most people don’t want anything other than stereo
- not everyone has the money to even get a decent TV, let alone 5.1 or God forbid 7.1
- Kirby does not focus an people with high end playback devices. It’s traditionally a kids game.
- 2secs Everytime you open the game can add up and be really annoying. Especially for kids, which are the core audience.
