Not sure if it's on VC yet, but hands down it would be Kirby Superstar. One of the greatest games ever made.

Actually, Kirby Superstar is coming out on the DS soon (so I hear). As for VC, I don't know (I don't even have a Wii yet).

(Kirby Superstar is awesome)

Kirby Super Star is by far the best Kirby game, if it is in the VC, download it, it doesn't have much different abilitys, but each ability has a lot of different attacks, current Kirby games have only between 1 and 3 attacks, and you can also create a companion by "sacrificing" the ability you have, a second player can control him.

Kirby Super Star is the best game but it isn't on the VC yet. Go for Kirby's Adventure instead, it's the second best and it has both Meta Knight and Dedede.

Super Star is the precursor to all things Smash. It is, without question, the single greatest Kirby game, and one of the best games ever made for the SNES. Almost all the other Kirby games play nearly identical, and if you notice some of Kirby's later outtings on the GBA and DS, they're kinda reminisient of the play style. But so far, no Kirby game before or after has even come close to matching Superstar.

So if its not on VC, you should probably wait it out. They took a character and level from that game and put it into Brawl (Meta and Halberd) for a reason.

Kirby's Adventure, because Superstar isn't out yet. However, I must say that both are great, and even if Superstar was available on VC, you should get more points and make sure you get both. Seriously, both have Dedede, Meta Knight, and both are enjoyably long.

Kirby Superstar isn't on the VC yet, so I recommend Kirby's Adventure. And DON't get Kirby's Dream Course!

Kirby Superstar for sure.

The new Kirby games are garbage. Some powers are so useless compared to others. In Superstar, every power had at least two or three unique moves. And they all looked neat.

Kirby's Dreamland 3 for the SNES is also a good one. The art style is cool, and it's also co-op.

Hands down, no question, Super Star.

Not only is it one of, if not the greatest game for the SNES, but you can play it 2 player in just about any mode.

I can't tell you how many times i've replayed it on my SNES.

However, its not on VC, but it should be coming out soon on the DS so... save your money?

Kirby Superstar. Then the Amazing Mirror.

I am fairly confident that SSE is the successor to all of the Superstar games.

Yeah, I bought that one on Virtual Console and it's very good.
Cool final fight(s). Beautiful graphics for the NES. Go buy it. Best Kirby for VC yet.

Oh, and Kirby Superstar is being remade for DS, and I'll certainly be buying one.
And he's getting a Wii game as well this year. Kirby gets around.:):laugh:

do NOT listen to him!!! :urg:
...

C'mon, his reaction after getting it would be hilarious...


ANYWAY,

Kirby's Dreamland 2 is still my favorite game...since it was the first Kirby game I owned. Still like those very few powers and the cute lil' animals the best...

...Wish they would have continued the Dreamland series...Like it better than the "Adventures"-like games...

How stupid are you? ROMs have been illegal for a long long time. Downloading a ROM is illegal.

Kirby Superstar is the best Kirby game but it's not on the Virtual Console. Go with Kirby's Adventure. Definitely buy Kirby Superstar remake on DS if you like Smash Bros. (which I assume you do considering this is SmashBoards). Super Smash Bros, and especially the subspace emissary portion, is an evolution of Kirby Superstar.

I think Kirby's Avalanche is a fun little puzzle title, it's based on Puyo Pop, it's kinda like wonky Tetris, but with Kirby characters :D The only thing you REALLY have to put up with is Kirby's annoying rude attitude XD

But yeah, when Kirby's Super Star gets to the VC, get that.

no, it's a new Kirby game, based primarly on Superstar and its partner system giving Kirby the ability to create up to three partners. there's not much info about the game though. the release date has yet to be announced
