First thing to come to my mind, I do not know of anything more powerful than that.
If the Core Contingency plan from Total Annihilation counts, you build a bomb that blows up the entire galaxy.
And Solar lets you turn into a black hole and devour a lot of nearby suns and stuff. Of course it's a game where you control a sentient solar system so blowing up whole planets is a casual act.

And it just gets crazier from there. Some Gurren Lagann shit.
Pretty sure you didn't.

Asura's Wrath can't be topped. That famous scene people always show of him punching that giant guy's finger isn't even close to the craziest thing that happens in that game.

Giving one of your characters in Dragon Quest VII the Platinum King Slime Job and absorbing magic and taking physical hits like a champ. In the two bonus dungeons of the game where you

Yep that scene is right at the beginning. Asura just becomes more and more powerful.

Samus is the strongest nintendo character no question. She doesn't have anything overly crazy in her arsenal, but she kills everything she meets anyway and destroys their house and all their friends just to rub it in.
ISAAC'S FEET VERSUS BAYO'S HAIR. LET'S GO.
Now this is a fight I would pay money to see.

nah, Donkey Kong is stronger by logic alone since gorillas are like ten times stronger than humans.

If you're going to do overdone overpowered stuff, go all the way with it.
So... Neo Contra, of course! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6RCmbIwizjY

So far I don't think anyone's come up with anything crazier than Xenoblade. Literal creation of a new universe. Full-on omnipotence. Asura and Bayonetta punched God so hard he died, sure, but Shulk became God for a while.

Yeah, but that doesn't really matter, given the topic, does it? It's still pretty much the most impactful thing it's possible to do.
It's not what you traditionally think of when you think of something "powerful" but being able to go from rolling up tiny things like bugs onto your ball in the Katamari games to getting your ball large enough to roll up the entire Earth and other planets is a pretty amazing power.
Edit: The Prince has also got to be one of the strongest characters in all of gaming, he's the size of a bug and yet he can roll a ball the size of Earth around.

If the Bayonetta, Asura's Wrath and Xenoblade examples count, then

Lightning kills her creator god in (mostly) 1-on-1 combat.

Rosalina reset the universe like it was no big deal.
Sounds like it's not quite what you're looking for, but it's still a good summary:
You legend, exactly what I was looking for.
Thank you so much!
Wrt OP, Kirby. Definitely.

I mean, Bayonetta
I think that takes the cake for me.
literally punches God into the sun.

Cannot for the life of me remember this bit?
Where was it again pleas?
Not really. These gods aren't that powerful if they can be killed by punching them a lot.

So your definition of powerful is invincible?
Yeah pretty sure I did
Pretty sure the Demi-fiend isn't God.

It may not be killing a god, but how about the famous 'train suplex'?
My definition of powerful is not "Like those monsters I fought on the way here except with more HP." Half the time, the god isn't even the strongest boss in the game.

Why would you do that?

So she kills Kamiya, not God.
But... Kamiya...

It was all set up to be the big action moment of the game, and they totally fucked it up with broken controls.
It would still get my vote though, it's a very cool moment.

I'll never forget being all hyped up for this moment, then spending upwards of 20 minutes passing the controller around the couch with friends, all of us desperately trying to get it to just fucking work.
Really set the tone of the game for us.
Her god doesn't really compare to Chakravartin from Asura.
