Nintendo Entertainment System

The Nintendo Entertainment System (commonly abbreviated to NES) is a home video game console developed and released by Nintendo in 1985. It was first released in Japan as the Family Computer (also known as the Famicom) on July 15, 1983. The NES would grow to dominate a vast majority of the video game market throughout the 1980s and the early 1990s. The NES is often credited as the console that put Nintendo on the map internationally and single-handedly saved the industry from the.

The only Kirby-related game that was released for the system is Kirby's Adventure, which originally released in 1993, late into the system's lifespan and a few years in to the Super Nintendo Entertainment System's run. Kirby's Adventure would later be released as one of the thirty games for the NES Classic Edition (titled Famicom Mini in Japan).
