Kirby's Adventure is awesome!

So the 30 cent deal this month on the Wii U is for Kirby's Adventure for the NES.  I never played this one so I picked it up.  I've tried a lot of Kirby games over the years and been disappointed because they were just too short and too easy.  Each time I try another thinking "this will be different" but alas they all kind of suck due to their child-like difficulty level. 

Anyway, I'm sure a lot of people missed out on this game.  It was released in 1993 on the NES and at this point the SNES had already been out for two years in the US and Japan.  While I still wouldn't call the game difficult, there are a  lot of stages and varied enemies and there is a slight degree of challenge as well.  It's filled with mini games, secret items, and all the things you'd find in a typical Mario game of that era, it's just Kirby, so it's a little easier. 

Regardless it's only 30 cents... pick it up and have fun!

Played the hell out of this game when I was a kid. We didn't get an NES until 1990, and didn't get an SNES until 1996. Loved Kirby's Adventure and Kirby's Pinball Land (GB).

 :cheers: Awesome game.

I remember thinking Kirby Superstar for the SNES is pretty darn awesome as well, but it has been years since I played it.

One of my top 10 NES games, easily. I think the cartridge was something of a big deal in technology at the time, with extra processing power added on the cartridge itself? I don't recall the technical specs, but the rom itself is the largest unique data (as in, non-padded) of a single game NES cartridge.
