Been wanting to see those Kirby games that haven't made their way onto the Virtual Console yet?
In the latest issue of Nintendo Power, a new poll asks, "What classic games do you want to see on the Virtual Console?" This is our chance to get the word to Nintendo that we want to see the major Kirby games appear on the Virtual Console sooner than later!

Now, we all know that several Kirby games are already on the Virtual Console, but it's still missing two of the most important games of all: Kirby Super Star and Kirby's Dream Land 3.

Also, recall that the Virtual Console features import games as well! This could be the first chance that we can see Kirby's Super Star Stacker receive an official release outside of Japan!

The poll allows us to submit up to five games in our e-mail (only games on systems that are currently featured on the Virtual Console, so none of the Game Boy Kirby games can qualify, sadly), so if there are other games out there besides Kirby that you want to see, go right ahead!

All submissions go to the following address:

vcpoll@futureus.com

This poll probably only lasts until around the end of the month, so get your submissions in as soon as you can! Get crackin'!



Kudos to Starmen.net for the magazine scan! (Vote for EarthBound!)

Can somebody list all of the Kirby games currently available for the Virtual Console, please? This would be very helpful in knowing which ones to suggest. On a side note, Escargoon highly suggests the original Super Smash Bros, Donkey Kong 64, and Pokémon Stadium for non-Kirby game choices. As for Kirby games, Escargoon has never played KD3, so he eagerly awaits the day when it shall be available on the VC.

Ah, I suppose a list of Kirby games currently on the Virtual Console would help out, huh? Let\'s see...

Kirby\'s Adventure for the NES,
Kirby\'s Dream Course and Kirby\'s Avalanche for the SNES,
and Kirby 64 for the N64.

Granted, that\'s not a whole lot of Kirby games, but since Game Boy games aren\'t a supported system on the Virtual Console as of yet, that takes out a massive chunk of possible Kirby games (SIX on the Game Boy/Color, although Tilt \'n\' Tumble wouldn\'t exactly be possible to play anyhow).

I already own Kirby Super Star and Kirby's Dream Land 3 on emulator, but having it on full-console would be a lot easier. Plus it's on MY SISTER'S computer! xD; Yeah, I think I'll let them know. I hope they'll pick our choices and not some dumb stuff.... XP;

If I do tell them, I'd like:

1. Kirby Super Star
2. Kirby's Dream Land 3
3. Kirby's Dream Land
4. Kirby no Kira Kira Kizzu
and 5. I agree with Disaster that a Mother game would be good.

Those are just some ideas; there will only be five chosen ones, but if ALL of mine *magically~* got picked, I'd like those. <D


Man, you guys have been updating a lot lately...!!

Oops, sorry for the double post; this is just a correction to the list. <D; I accidentally said Kirby's Dream Land and Disaster said "no Kirby GameBoy games". Too bad, I only ever got to play that game back when I was like.... 6 or something.
Posted by Lei on 3:44pm April 3rd, 2008
The first Super Smash Bros., definately, and maybe an Earthworm Jim game. Earhtworm Jim is cool, even though he's just a worm in a Super Suit! :D

First Super Smash Bros. is already on the Virtual Console.

Thank you very much, DisasterKirby!
Posted by Escargoon on 8:15pm April 3rd, 2008
Sorry for the triple post, but Escargoon found the entire Wii virtual console game list. On the official Nintendo website, choose Wii, then Virtual Console. A list of currently available games will be provided. Unfortunately, Super Smash Bros. is NOT on that list; KBF most likely misread "Super Mario Bros." Anyway, although the provided passage states that the results shall not influence future releases, vote anyway. Voicing one's opinion can never hurt... Besides, what if they are lying......?

Brawl is out NEXT MONTH! I'm going to use Kirby FIRST!!!

Wait... --what!?

I saw something about "a new poll" and got confused... :E
Posted by X on 10:55pm April 3rd, 2008
Isn't Kirby Super Star being remade for the DS alongside Marth's Fire Emblem Game??
I don't think these two will be on the virtual console...(well I KNOW Fire Emblem is on there but...)
Posted by SilverLunar on 12:17am April 4th, 2008

I agree with mother (earthbound) on the wii shop I mean think about it the adventures of Ninten and/or Ness but still my list would be:
1. Earthbound (Mother 2)
2. Kirby super star
3. Super smash bros
4. Star fox (maybe)
5. Hey you Pikachu (I wish because how the heck do you talk to Pikachu)
Posted by Dean on 10:37am April 5th, 2008
Sorry for posting again, but I've unfortunately never even played Mother games (sorry Disaster!).

I'm really disappointed. And I REALLY wanted to see those Kirby GameBoy and GameBoy Color games make their way to Virtual Console! It's a shame knowing you're a fan of Kirby and don't even OWN his first game (well, I've PLAYED it, but don't own it).

I suppose a few games would help out eh? Let us see..
The Simpsons: Bart's Nightmare [SNES],
Pokemon Stadium 2 [Pokemon Stadium GS in Japan], All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros., Kirby Super Star, and Sonic & Knuckles on the Sega genesis.
Granted, my favorite shows and videogame series are the ones I was hoping for, although Famicom Disk isn't a major Virtual Console console yet, that takes out a great deal of my favorite games[there are no plans to release the Famicom Disk System as of yet]. And remember, take us to your leader...
Posted by Super Star Snatchers on 7:37pm April 11th, 2008
Hello, it's the leader of le Super Star Snatchers. Le games mEGA IS HOPING FOR were...
Hey You Pikachu, EarthBound, Super Smash Bros., Pokemon Stadium [Japanese vERSION], and All Night Nippon Super Mario Bros. Wait a minute, who am I asking this question to, anyway?
Posted by Super Star Snatcher Mega on 7:43pm April 11th, 2008
poyo poyo poyo...
Mazza [MOTHER] [NES]
Dairantou Smash Bros. [N64]
Staa Focks [Star Fox] [SNES]
Sonikku CD [Sonic CD]
and
Pokemon Stadium [N64]
No plans to where the Sega CD will come to the Virtual Console.
Posted by Kirby on 7:50pm April 11th, 2008
I want...
EarthBound!!!
Sonic & knuckles!!!
Kirby Super Star!!!
Pokemon Stadium [Japanese Version]!!!
and EarthBound Zero!!!
Posted by Chiba on 9:20am April 12th, 2008
If Nintendo puts the games I mentioned [Sonic CD, Pokemon Stadium 2, Super Smash Bros., The Simpsons: Krusty's Super Fun House, and Mother 2: Gyiyg Strikes Back], I shall have... HAM HOCKS!!!
Posted by Escargoon on 9:25am April 12th, 2008
Kirby Super Star
Earthbound (A.k.a Mother 2)
Super Mario RPG: Legend Of The Seven Stars

I just got my Wii and I am still surprised that these three games are not already on their list of downloadable titles.

There's frankly no excuse for Kirby Super Star, in my opinion, the best of the Kirby series, to not already be offered. But the other two are also glaring omissions, as well.

Earthbound (SNES)
Yoshi's Island (SNES)
Conker's Bad Fur Day (N64)
Super Mario All-Stars (SNES)
Kirby Superstar (SNES)
Posted by Calvin on 3:37pm April 13th, 2008
