Kirby's Adventure: Nightmare in Dreamland for the NES is my favorite entry. The sprites are excellent, I love the overworld between levels, the music is top notch, and it's one of the few NES games with an autosave and progress meter.

Kirby Superstar for the SNES revisited the game, but it dropped the overworld, the music isn't quite as good, and the powers don't really feel right. They did include some newer abilities and co-op, which is nice, but it feels more disjointed than the original.

I likea da Korby!

Planet Robobot is awesome; True Arena is insane, though. Planning to eventually tackle Super Star. The spinoffs are also surprisingly fun (Pinball Land, Block Ball)

Kirby is perfect. They are my hero. And they could eat all of your heroes.

Air Ride is goated.

Kirby has never got enough love. DreamWorld and 64 were mainstays of my childhood. Kirby can be anything Kirby needs to be. Nintendo could make a Kirby card game, JRPG, racing or stick with the main line. The games would be fun and make sense thematically.

Super Deluxe/Star was my jam. I remember the first time playing megaton punch. It was so silly and hilarious.

I've played dreamworld 1-3, adventure, and star allies. What I've seen of yarn was pretty off-putting, and I love the music.

I had Squeak Squad on the DS and played through it many times. I've been playing through some of the others (still don't have the recent 3D one), and my biggest complaint is just that I'm not the target audience anymore. Haha. Some difficulty settings would be wonderful. However, whenever I want to turn off my brain for a bit I'll boot up Triple Trouble or Amazing Mirror sometimes.

Apart from preferring Kirby in Smash, the only Kirby game I've played is Kirby's Dreamland on Gameboy. They hadn't yet figured out how to persist save data in those cartridges, and it didn't have any codes. So you had to beat it in one sitting, which I could do as a kid, which was no small fear for that era of gaming. Replaying it meant finding where the secrets are, making runs quicker each time.

I kinda like this concept of no save, I think there aren't many games, even retro-themed ones, that make use of it as an element.

My nephew absolutely loves Kirby anything. We played some of the games together on an emulator during his visit last year, but it's a few more years before I'll introduce him to Dream Course. The 2d platformers are more his speed currently. And by that I mean "as long as he crossed the finish line he beat the level" even if I helped. It's been fun playing through them to practice for the cool points

I 100% amazing mirror several times on GBA. Loved that device and many games it had. I want a modern pocket emulator GB device but can't justify it since I already have a Steam deck. Or a phone. I guess nostalgia doesn't hold enough monetary value to me to profit off of.
