2022 marks 30 years since notorious identity thief Kirby made his video-game debut, giving Nintendo yet another bankable mascot. He may never achieved the mainstream adoration of Mario, the industry relevance of Zelda, or the die-hard appeal of Metroid, but for three decades he’s been there, welcoming players to Nintendo’s various consoles with a big hug, a bigger smile, and a digestive system we would rather not understand. For this reason we decided to revisit each of his games and rank them from worst to best, all while trying to avoid saying “awwwww…” every time he does something cute. Here is Every Kirby Video Game Ranked from Worst to Best.

    We don't tolerate Kirby Mass Attack slander in this house
  • ranking Super Star outside of the top ten is laughable. ranking Super Star far below Dream Land 3 is insulting.
  • @AzureRoxe
    I love how we all agree that Super Star specifically was way too low.
  • @troysuza2065
    Kirby Super Star is easily top three, don't know what y'all were smoking.
  • @RueLangston
    While I do respect your opinion regarding the games, I have to admit this list really confuses me... I mean, Super Star did pretty much make the Kirby series what it is today : abilities have proper movesets and hats, co-op is a thing, you get several types of gameplay and even a full remake of the first game; plus it looks better, you can block attacks, etc... By nowadays standards, it might not hold up (hence the remake) but I do believe that for what it was at the time, especially coming right after Kirby's Adventure, the praise was definitely justified
  • @LoneLeeLuna
    Kirby: Super Star is ranked 21!? That hurts Triple Jump, that really hurts. 😔
  • @Bored_Barbarian
    Apparently Super Star DS is so high they didn’t even rank it….
  • I think Super Star is placed a little too low under some of these games. As much as I like some games over it… really, Dream Land has no right being better than it. Or Dream Land 2, as much I love it being my first Kirby game. Also, SS Ultra and Nightmare in Dream Land are so radical remakes, that they should’ve been featured here.
  • @saintnick7252
    Seeing Pinball Land that low made me assume I'd disagree with a few entries on the list. The absolute SLANDER towards Super Star makes me believe you just made everything up without playing any of it, considering it's really a top three game in the franchise. EDIT: brb, literally tearing the flesh off my own face as YOU GIVE MORE PRAISE TO DEDEDE DRUM DASH THAN SUPER STAR
  • @bulb9970
    Both Super Star and Amazing Mirror are placed criminally low. I do appreciate the Rainbow Curse praise tho
  • @gringusgaming
    This man really called the game that revolutionized the copy ability system "8 half-hearted shrugs".
  • @damianorfao3769
    The most unhinged Kirby tier list. Feels like it was made via random number generation.
  • @reecemysocksoff
    Okay so we’re all in agreement that Kirby Super Star is shockingly low yeah?
  • This feels like it's avoiding the inevitable, ranking the sonic games
  • @jman3267
    Super Star is bizarrely low. Every "what is the best kirby game?" poll I've seen (Last one had 1,500 responses) had Super Star/SSU win by a substantial margin. It would be like Super Metroid not making the top 10 on a metroid list.
  • @EmbarsArt
    I love how this video didn't touch up upon any of the kirby lore it's been building, how eldritch the enemies are and a like... and it still felt like you heard about the games enough. It just comes to show that the lore really is just something for the fans by this point. And I love it. Also Super star should've gotten the rerelease allowance and gotten a far better rating for the fact it changed so much in kirby's formula alone
  • @jckorn9148
    There was a time when little me only had a Brickboy and a handful of Gameboy games. One was Kirby's Dreamland and it was the first game I ever beat. Those 8-bit tunes are burned into my head. I am now a proud Papa as my son is enjoying Kirby as much as I do.
