Kirby's Dream Land
One of the retro karts I picked up as this years Portland Retro Gaming Expo was Kirby's Dreamland on Gameboy. I have fond memories of Kirby on NES and since I wanted to pickup a Gameboy Advance at this years PRGE I decided to also get some classic Gameboy titles such as Metroid Return of Samus and Kirby's Dreamland.
A week ago I snapped Kirby's Dreamland in my Advance and started it up. Immediately I was reminded of how much fun Kirbys Adventure is on the Nintendo as it's nearly perfectly translated here to Gameboy. The play control is great and the platforming is super smooth. Kirby can suck in enemies and air that he can then shoot out as a projectile weapon as well...

Kirby's Dreamland on the Gameboy was my first introduction to Kirby. If I've played his games (other than Smash Bros.) on another system, I've hardly done so. I remember that I did enjoy the game, but it's been forever since I've played it. I actually like that you think he's over powered, because I think that makes the game a bit more fun for my taste. Mario Bros., on the other hand is definitely more challenging and thus, to me, much more frustrating. Maybe some day I'll go back to some of Kirby's games. I must admit he's one of my most favorite characters on Smash Bros.!
This is one of my faves from the Game Boy era. Like you said, it's easy. Super easy. Too easy, really. But it's still a ton of fun. The Kirby games are aimed at a younger gamer, but don't skimp on the fun factor, so even though you basically can't die, it's still fun.
