Line 8:
** It should be noted that Dedede has a LOT more friends than Kirby in the games. Pretty much his only in-game friends outside of [[Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards|Kirby 64]] are all created by him somehow. Pretty much everybody else has tried to kill him at least once.
*** Actually, three of his friends in that game have tried to kill him too. (Adeleine during two [[Demonic Possession|demonic possessions]] though) But he's been shown to spend time with his friends there and with the Dreamland 2 and 3 friends.
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: After about 6 years of delays and hiatus, the [[Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards]] Wii follow-up [http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2011-01-28-new-nintendo-wii-kirby-game-announced has finally been confirmed for a release], and plans to feature, after [[Kirby's Epic Yarn]], the return of Kirby's [[Mega Manning]], as well as brand new abilities and [[Super Smash Bros.|Final Smash]]-like moves. Needless to say, fans exploded with [[Tears of Joy]].
** They did so even more when it was revealed Meta Knight, King Dedede, and the bandana Waddle Dee were playable characters.
** There's more: Kirby's Adventure is confirmed as a 3D Classic for [[Nintendo 3DS]].
Line 28:
* [[Ear Worm]]: Pick a song, ANY song from the games. Case in point: the Invincibility jingle. It doesn't help that the games have a habit of endlessly recycling/remixing music used from previous games.
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Galacta Knight of ''Kirby Super Star Ultra''. He only showed up for one battle and didn't even get a single line of dialogue, yet already fans are spinning [[Fan Wank]] about his origins and clamouring for him to appear in another game, {{spoiler|[[And the Fandom Rejoiced|which came true]] in [[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]].}}
** Meta Knight. To the point where he gets to be a playable character in Air Ride, Nightmare in Dreamland, and Super Star Ultra, and now Return to Dreamland. His [[Face Ship]], the [[Stealth Pun|Halberd]], is a major plot point in the [[Super Smash Bros.|Subspace Emissary]] and the only original Kirby stage in the game.
** Adeleine from ''[[Kirby 64 The Crystal Shards|Kirby 64]]''. For being a minor character in one (or two?) games, she has quite a fanbase - possibly helped by ''[[Brawl in the Family]]'', where she's a prominent character.
** Arguably Nightmare, despite only appearing in the second game, its remake, and the [[Kirby of the Stars|anime]], fans remember him and want him to make a comeback. He's not as popular as Marx, but more or less, Nightmare's memorable.
Line 40:
* [[Fridge Horror]]: Jim Sterling gives a lecture on the [[Fridge Horror]] of the Kirby franchise in [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/jimquisition/4850-National-Kirby-Day this] episode of the Jimquisition.
* [[Game Breaker]]: You can ''destroy'' The Arena (and later The [[Nintendo Hard|True]] [[Harder Than Hard|Arena]]) with Hammer and Plasma, the former having Hammer Flip, which does one of the highest damages of a non one-time-use ability in the game, and the latter of which provides an extra shield when fully charged. This makes them both [[Awesome Yet Practical]].
** If you master the quick charge trick, the aforementioned Plasma power from ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' becomes the most broken power the series has ever seen. Due to this, it was slightly Nerfed in the DS version, requiring more charge-up time.
** There's also Tornado, which has the amazing ability to kill almost every boss in the series. In fact, every boss in ''Squeak Squad'' can be killed very easily with it, including the final boss. It's an even better choice for the final boss than the [[Eleventh-Hour Superpower]]! Cranked [[Up to Eleven]] in [[Kirby's Return to Dream Land]], where stronger moves were made avaliable. Heck, you can annhilate {{spoiler|'''Magolor Soul'''}} pretty easily with Tornado. Yep, an [[Infinity-1 Sword]] in comparison to Super Abilities.
** Also Hi-Jump, at least in Kirby's Adventure, which not only does high damage to bosses, but makes you invincible while doing so and sending you out of harm's way. Not always useful outside bosses, however.
Line 46:
** In Dreamland 2, Coo + Parasol can rip apart everything ''including the angry Propeller Bombs''. The whole thing got a well deserved nerf in 3.
** Chu Chu's [[Flying Broomstick|Clean power]] trivializes pretty much any midair segment (short of those that require quick movement).
* [[Gannon Banned]]: Some parts of the Kirby fandom don't seem to accept any other variations of the name "Meta Knight".
* [[Goddamned Bats]]: The Bronto Burts and Pteran placement in the later levels of ''Dreamland 3'' rival that of the Medusa heads in the early ''[[Castlevania]]''s. And yes, ''also'' bats.
* [[Hell Is That Noise]]: Combining this with [[Most Annoying Sound]] gives you the final phase of ''"Revenge Of Meta Knight"''.
** The music for Ripple Star's second level. The cute [[Sugar Bowl]] of the first level [[Mood Whiplash|is quickly cut off]] when you reach the second and are welcomed with the ruined fairy castle and hear that damn [[Scare Chord]] dirge.
** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfHah9s6BWE That... bloodcurling... SCREAM!]
* [[Hilarious in Hindsight]]: One look at [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D-8db508yrE this commercial] for ''Kirby's Adventure'' and suddenly the concept of ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KvULlC9c7xg Kirby's Epic Yarn]'' becomes all the more hilarious.
** Also, Marx's mouth laser attack. [[Breath Weapon|Imma Firin Ma Lazah!]]
** Rick the Hamster. With the Stone ability, he can [[Rickroll|roll]].
