Kirby's first game was Kirby's Dream Land, for the Game Boy. This game features our pink pal running around in order to reclaim food from King Dedede, which is a plot used in some other entries to the series as well.
-
This, the second game in the franchise, introduced Kirby's famous ability to take the powers of his enemies and his color of pink. This was Kirby's only appearance on the NES, and came out about two years after the Super Nintendo was released.
-
The first spinoff of several came in the forn of a pink puff pinball game. It was released for the Game Boy. Kirby takes the role of... the pinball.
-
This game's intresting and unique golf mechanic was a delight for fans of the series. Kirby once again becomes a ball, this time a golf ball, to stop King Dedede from stealing the stars.
-
The third main installment was confusingly named 2, even though it, as before stated, was the third in the series. This game introduced Kirby's three animal buddies, being Coo, Rick, and Kine.
-
Another spinoff, this time similer to Breakout, came out on an unknown date in May of 1996. Kirby must save the five Sparkling Stars from King Dedede's castle.
-
One of the most popular Kirby games, and the second released for the SNES, featured eight indvidual micro-games. It was a smashing sucess, and proved Kirby to be a flagship series of Nintendo.
-
This Tetris-like puzzle game utilized the A and B buttons as the only buttons used, and was generally recieved well by fans.
-
Again, confusing title. This game was actually the fifth game in the core series. Fun fact: This game was not released in PAL areas. (Europe and Australia)
-
The first and only Kirby title released for the Nintendo 64 was a rather experimental one, featuring an unique mechanic to combine two powers into one.
-
This very creative game involved the player to literally tilt their Game Boy Color to make Kirby move, a concept met with mixed to positive reviews.
-
This... is not a game, actually! This anime (which I highly recommend watching) was dubbed to English from Sep. 2002 to Dec. 2006.
-
The best-selling Kirby game of all time, despite it being a remake of Kirby's Adventure. (and had, might I add, the coolest box art ever!)
-
This, the best-selling spinoff and second best-selling Kirby of all time, is a Kirby-themed racing game, met with critical acclaim from fans.
-
As sort of a tie-in/reference to games such as LoZ: Link to the Past, and later LoZ: Link Between Worlds and Super Paper Mario, this game features two parallel worlds as counterparts to each other.
-
Another Kirby game with a unique aspect: guiding a ball-shaped Kirby by drawing lines, utilizing the DS' capibilities.
-
This game, finally returning to original Kirby platforming goodness, featured the classic plot of Dedede stealing food.
-
A direct remake of the original Kirby Super Star, featuring all eight games.
-
One of the most experimental Kirby games, trading his classic ability to suck up his adversaries for the powers of a whip-like string.
-
Another experiment, this time allowing the player to control up to ten Kirbys at once! Aside from that, it was a standard platformer.
-
A very standard Kirby adventure, and the most recent on a handheld. It featured two other minigames besides Story Mode (hence the name, Triple Deluxe).
-
The first and so-far only "experiment" Kirby sequel, successing Kirby: Canvas Curse. It used the same drawing line mechanic as Canvas Curse.
