It's a pain to find a way to play this game, but it's pretty fun. You'll have better time with virtually any mainline Kirby game tho.

I have a little mixed feelings on this game when trying to compare it to other Kirby installments. Gameplay-wise, I liked Return to Dreamland more. Sure, robobot armor is an interesting concept and is done pretty well, but game still feels kinda unfinished for some reason and autoscroller sections ruined few levels for me. If you never played any Kirby games it will not disappoint you, but if you did, it might. But it indeed have some strong sides. First things first, its plot. You'll have to complete extra mode and true arena to learn it (or read Kirby wiki), but it is totally worth it. Then it have an excellent final boss, my favorite up to this day, solid soundtrack and bonus game modes that are a lot of fun to play. TL;DR: not best Kirby game ever, but still worth playing.

Just play some different Paper Mario. Original for classics, TTYD for gameplay, SPM for story, Color Splash for writing. This one does not do better at anything than others. Rather feels like stock Mario rather. Until you're going to do TAS for it. I'd like to see that happening.
