With the recent release of Kirby and the Forgotten Land (arguably one of the best games in the series), the little pink puffball has reached new heights in popularity. But what about all the other highlights of his video game career?
While he’s not been around as long as Mario, Donkey Kong, or Link, Kirby has been with Nintendo for a long time and has had at least one new game on every Nintendo console since the NES. At this point in time, he’s been the star of over 30 games and many of them have been absolute classics, so we’ve put it upon ourselves to choose the eight best Kirby games.
Whether you’ve been a Nintendo devotee since the days of the N64, or only joined the ranks with the advent of the Switch, there’s a Kirby game that you’ll adore. Considering the number of games in the series, there are a number of seriously strong contenders, but these, like the hungry pink protagonist himself, are some of the most well rounded.
