Kirby: Mass Attack on the other hand costs $10 on Wii U's Virtual Console. It also received a score of 8.5 in its review, which said, "Mass Attack doesn't stray from the colorful, kid-friendly presentation and syrupy sweet platforming that the Kirby franchise is known for, but substantial innovation in the way you play it sets the game apart from its predecessors."

Additionally, the 3DS added the SNES golf game Kirby's Dream Course, which costs $8, to its Virtual Console. And if you want to try out Kirby: Planet Robobot, a demo of the pink ball's latest adventure has made its way to the 3DS eShop.

Another game that recently made its way to Virtual Console is the SNES game Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars. It's a Square-developed Mario game with JRPG mechanics and platforming.
