Kirby, a villager in Pupupuland, arrived on Planet Popstar when his rocket ship broke down, causing him to wake up and arrive at Pupupuland 200 years before schedueled. In the TV show, which is called Hoshii no Kaabii, kirby is usually found beating demon beasts sent out by Dedede, eating, or sleeping. In one person's opinion, he sleeps so much because he was supposed to be sleeping for 200 years. His friends are Bun and Fumu, childeren of the Cabinet Minister. His enemy's are usually demon beasts that are purchased and sent out by Dedede to destroy him. He is usally a peaceful creature, but sometimes causes a rukess by annoying the other villagers.
I remember, in Kirby's Rainbow Resort, that a Kirby game was planned where Kirby would be depicted as much younger. I think it was "Kirby Kids" or something, and I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be for SNES. I guess it would be a prequel to Kirby's Dream Land, or an alternate continuity or something. Now, I don't have an immediate source on it other than Kirby Warrior mentioned it at least once, I think. I know this is the same place that also started the whole "Nightmare possessed Meta Knight" rumor at around the same time, but I think this should be looked into. 208.101.173.66 15:45, 4 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I'm disappointed. It was the strangest and most characteristic part of the series. --HanzoHattori 08:26, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Image:Kirbylogo.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Kirby isn't a real platformer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.85.111.141 (talk) 01:34, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
For a chronology in the series. Let's see......I'm sure that Kirby's Dream Land 1, 2, and 3 would be the first three, and that they chronologically precede Kirby's Adventure. --PJ Pete October 3, 2008, 0:21
As of September 2010...
O_O
This date hasn't happened yet!
It's in the first paragraph, the intro part. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.45.186.236 (talk) 03:44, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
yeah, someone fix this D: —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.16.37.6 (talk) 05:42, 5 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It's not possible to click on Kirby's Avalanche from the timeline picture. It's covered up by the title of another game that came out in the same year. Alphius (talk) 19:45, 29 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Currently, the Kirby series includes a total of over twenty games, and has sold over 30 million units worldwide.

Shouldn't we use the first release date for Kirby's Adventure (March '93) instead of randomly jumping to NA? MightyArms (talk) 23:23, 23 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Kirby Fighters 2 was released in 2020 and is incorrectly under 2010s under Titles. I'm requesting that there be a new section for the 2020s under Titles. Amffy (talk) 14:14, 24 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Why doesn't the new game have a Wikipedia page? 98.118.18.50 (talk) 23:47, 26 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Other video games have gotten pages with less information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.118.18.50 (talk) 03:08, 28 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I propose merging List of Kirby media into Kirby (series). I think the content in List of Kirby media can easily be explained in the context of Kirby (series), and a merger would not cause any article-size or weighting problems in Kirby (series).~ Arkhandar (message me) 10:55, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
The updated series logo from 2022 currently on the page (https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/d/d4/Kirby_2022_logo.svg/375px-Kirby_2022_logo.svg.png) is not the official series logo. The logo currently on the page is recreated from the 30th anniversary logo (https://kirby.nintendo.com/assets/img/kirby_30.png). The official new logo for the entire series (not just the 30th anniversary) is this: https://kirby.nintendo.com/assets/img/kirby-logo.png
The new logo is used in the titles of the games since Kirby and the Forgotten Land as well as now on the official Kirby website https://kirby.nintendo.com/
This article should feature the proper new logo. Kgdx (talk) 18:58, 10 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Done, replaced with File:Kirby Logo (Yellow and Blue).png on all Wikipedias that were using the unofficial logo. -Vipz (talk) 11:59, 6 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]All of the digital games say >1. That begs the question, for digital-only games, would downloads be "units" that were sold? QuicoleJR (talk) 13:48, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Currently it links to "Kirby's return to dreamland" for the wii which is already confusing, as the info the reader is expecting is about the nintendo switch version, listed at the bottom of the "development" part of that article. It's quite confusing really, and the link itself doesn't link to that part of the article anyways. Rando339 (talk) 21:26, 18 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
