From Kirby Wiki
Treasure chests are boxes containing various items. They have appeared in Kirby Super Star/Kirby Super Star Ultra, Kirby & the Amazing Mirror, and Kirby Squeak Squad.
They are usually depicted as being red boxes with a gold trim.

[edit] Kirby Super Star and Kirby Super Star Ultra
In the sub-game Great Cave Offensive, players are encouraged to collect treasure chests that contain items. There were 60 different chests in both games. These treasures do nothing but serve as incentives for 100% completion.
[edit] Kirby & the Amazing Mirror
In Kirby & the Amazing Mirror, treasure hunting is a prominent feature of the game. However, this game expanded on the system used in Kirby Super Star, some items can be used by Kirby in-game, such as Spray Paint. Other chests are needed to complete the game fully, holding items like a Level Map, and some are optional, containing items like food and features for the Sound Test.
[edit] Kirby Squeak Squad
In Kirby Squeak Squad, treasure hunting gains a new catch: Kirby must collect the treasures in his belly and go to the goal door to open them. There are two types of chests: the small red ones and the big golden ones.
Squeak Squad members will appear on certain circumstances to steal any chest they can find, grab, and take to a hideout. To make sure Kirby gets the chest, he must fight them until they get knocked out, and then take it. If a Squeak takes it to a hideout, Kirby must hurry before they bar up the entrance door. On another note, a special kind of Waddle Dee known as the Golden Waddle Dee carry treasure chests. They run around fast- and Kirby must inhale or it before it runs off a cliff in order to get the chest.
If Kirby neglects a treasure chest or fails to obtain one, he must replay the stage to get it.
In Kirby Squeak Squad, some of the same basic treasures from Kirby & the Amazing Mirror return, along with some new ones, such as Copy Scrolls, Ghost Medal pieces, Copy Palette styles, keys to unlock secret stages, jigsaw puzzle pieces, and pieces of a map to find a secret place where Kirby can access all the abilities he has unlocked. Most of them are just for fun, but some treasures are actually mandatory- when Kirby defeats a boss for the first time, a chest will appear that give items called Boss Badges (They look more like trophies, though). In levels 2-6, there are certain items in treasure chests called Star Seals. There is one in every level and they are always in big treasure chests; the radiation from the star seal causes the chest to glow, thus making it easier to spot. Kirby must obtain all the seals and finish Ice Island to use the star seals and grant access to Secret Sea, the area where Meta Knight's ship crashed long ago.
[edit] Trivia
A big chest from Squeak Squad is the design for its sticker in SSBB.
