First up is Kirby 64 for the Wii U Nintendo 64 Virtual Console. Next, there's Kirby: Squeak Squad for the Nintendo DS Virtual Console. And, finally, Kirby's Return to Dream Land for the Wii U Wii (try saying that three times fast) Virtual Console.
Also out this week, the Wii U game of the year edition of Badland, and a new cross buy game from the creators of Mutant Mudds. Ingest your enemies to gain their strength, celebrate your 23rd birthday, then jump past the break to view this list of new releases.

I had a lot of fun with Kirby’s Return to Dream Land for the Wii. My kids and I still play it from time to time.
I want to play it but I don’t like using the Gamepad. I wish they would add Pro Controller support to more games.
