Everyone’s favorite round, pink hero takes a break from swallowing his enemies to put your brain to work in this fast-paced puzzle game. Players take control of Kirby and match wits with well-known enemies from the Kirby series (including his archrival, King Dedede) in an effort to win the First Annual Dream Land Avalanche Competition. The simple-but-addictive game play revolves around brightly colored blobs and boulders. When the right amount of matching blobs are stacked, they explode and rain down on your opponent’s field of play. Repeat this until your screen is clear to move on to the next round. But be careful—the farther you advance, the faster the blobs fall and the smarter the opponents get. Are you good enough to help Kirby become the avalanche king

The Legend of the Mystical Ninja was originally released in 1992 by Konami. The game is a one to two player action-adventure game where you play as either Kid Ying or Dr. Yang. The adventure takes you through 10 levels set in feudal Japan on a mission to rescue princess Yuki. Typically each level starts off inside a town where you learn new attacks, buy items, and gather information. The second part of the level consists of platformer type game play where you fight enemies until you reach the end boss for the level. While playing with another player one player can ride piggy back on the other, when doing this the top player controls the fighting actions while the bottom player controls movement. While the piggy back combination doesn’t increase any attacks it can come in handy when making tricky jumps.
