I dont know all of them, but for example the earlier ones like Kirbys dream land 2; were they supposed to be ridiculously easy games? Like I do enjoy them just as a chill game to play. But im wondering what their purpose was. I maybe do recall reading they were made for younger kids. I just have always thought of Kirby as WAY overpowered and as such the games almost become blah.

I think I played one of the newer ones on switch and while it was really cool how you could become a car, I think the gameplay was still a little hand holdy.

As someone whose favorite game as a kid was Kirby's Adventure, yes, Kirby is supposed to be accessible to young children. 100% completion can be a bit hard. I remember Sakurai saying that he tuned Kirby to be the easiest to control in Smash games because kids like to play him. As an adult, they're relaxing to play. They're not all easy though – Canvas Curse might not be retro, but I think it's hard!
