I already had some money in my eShop account, so I went ahead and bought it. I have never actually played a traditional Kirby game before. I&#8217;ve played Kirby&#8217;s Avalanche, which is a puyo puyo puzzle game (much like Dr. Robotnik&#8217;s Mean Bean Machine on Sega Genesis), and I&#8217;ve also played Kirby&#8217;s Epic Yarn. The latter is a platformer, but it&#8217;s not your usual Kirby game because it doesn&#8217;t feature Kirby&#8217;s typical attack of inhaling and swallowing enemies to gain their abilities.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"840\" height=\"630\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/xzZ_Zytw0ks?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Above is a video of the first level, Vegetable Valley. Although a &#8220;level&#8221; is really like a world, since it contains four stages and a boss. After Kirby inhales an enemy, he can spit the enemy back out at another enemy or swallow the bad guy to inherit his ability. That is a particularly cool concept. You can use it to acquire a beam attack, a fire attack, a parasol to use as a weapon, and so on. The controls are a bit floaty, but I guess that&#8217;s to be expected considering Kirby can float (and fly). I haven&#8217;t played much beyond that first world yet, but the game seems fairly good from what I&#8217;ve played. It didn&#8217;t blow me away, but I did enjoy it. I&#8217;ll be playing more of Kirby&#8217;s Adventure in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jvgs.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/kirby-adventure-vegetable1.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-470\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-470\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jvgs.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/kirby-adventure-vegetable1.jpg\" alt=\"Kirby's Adventure screenshot\" width=\"569\" height=\"429\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jvgs.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/kirby-adventure-vegetable1.jpg 569w, https:\/\/www.jvgs.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/kirby-adventure-vegetable1-300x226.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 569px) 85vw, 569px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.jvgs.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/kirby-adventure-vegetable2.jpg\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-471\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-471\" src=\"http:\/\/www.jvgs.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/kirby-adventure-vegetable2.jpg\" alt=\"Kirby's Adventure screenshot\" width=\"570\" height=\"427\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jvgs.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/kirby-adventure-vegetable2.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.jvgs.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/kirby-adventure-vegetable2-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 570px) 85vw, 570px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Kirby&#8217;s Adventure for the NES is now available on the Wii U Virtual Console at a special price, only 30 cents for a limited time.
