Pieces of Lost Media from the Kirby Series

[@TheBeaverhouse]

HAL is a very interesting dev team to me. Over the years through various iterations and tests, it's become ABUNDANTLY clear to me that they will NEVER let a good idea go to waste. The various iterations of Kirby in 3D, Morpho Knight, HRD3 and the Kirby GCN trailer theme. If it CAN be made, it's only a matter of time before it is in some form or another. Mad respect to them for being able to even keep track of all their cutting room floor contents to do that.

[@orangepentagon9730]

HAL > Nintendo

[@harrybest2041]

'Kirby GCN' is just the first build of what became Kirby's Return to Dream Land. That's why a lot of backgrounds, music, abilities and bosses ended up being used in the final game.

[@KirbyIsANerd]

10:45 Correction, actually! King Dedede and Meta Knight are both playable characters in the final released version of Kirby Air Ride for the GameCube! King Dedede can be unlocked by defeating 1,000 common enemies, and Meta Knight by having a collective thirty minutes in the air. I'm a huge Kirby nerd, so I knew about a lot of these titles already, though I never knew Kirby Bowl 64 was originally supposed to launch on my birthday! (according to that magazine, at least)

There's another bit of lost media surrounding the anime that wasn't mentioned here. Like many 4kids shows, Kirby had a sweepstakes for it. Specifically around the time that Kirby and the Amazing Mirror was releasing. I believe it had something to do with the ability to win 4 cellphones for you and your friends as there were 4 kirbys in that game. I have been unable to find footage of the promo for this sweepstakes anywhere. It had a little rap to go along with it.

[@DavidTheCastle]

Holy crap I remember this. The FoxBox/4Kids era of Kirby is my favorite time.

The Show itself is still partially lost since two episodes are missing the dub audio at the end of the episodes buccaneer birdy and monsterious masterpiece.

[@kyotooutrun]

Kid Kirby was also to be developed by DMA Design, who would eventually turn into Rockstar North. Yes, that Rockstar North. The one that does the GTA series. They have some history with Nintendo, and were almost turned into another second-party developer like HAL and Intelligent Systems. This fell through though after Nintendo disapproved of Body Harvest on N64 and refused to publish it

Since they were mentioned in this video in the anime portion, I think it's fair to give a huge shoutout to Operation Hoshi no Kaabii! The project has been around for ages (it initially started in 2004, trying to get 4kids to release the series on DVD with a Japanese language option, which went about as well as one would expect lmao), uploading episodes of the anime both dubbed and subbed - The latter of which they made themselves, since no official subtitles version was released! They've got a list of links for both versions of the series, as well as the Japanese raws, on their tumblr blog, with multiple playlists for the dubs in particular, which includes both the original Japanese airing order and the 4kids dub airing order! They're seriously a blessing to anyone who's interested in the anime, and I highly recommend checking their stuff out; some of the subs do show their age and fansub nature, especially the early ones, but the amount of love and effort put into the project shows. Their work is how I really got into Kirby beyond just picking up Air Ride as a kid, and I couldn't be more grateful.

[@Onion_57]

I never clicked on one of your videos so quickly, Kirby is one of my favorite game series of all time!

[@kenyaholloway-reliford8213]

Interesting to think that the only reason they couldn't make Kirby for the Gamecube was basically because of hardware limitations.

[@SuperBunkerStunkerGamer]

It wasn't, thats false information. It couldn't make it because of expectations with the single player and 4 player.

[@indyreno2933]

The biggest reason of the cancellation of the main series Kirby game that was slated to be released for the Nintendo GameCube that had the helper system was mostly in favor of creating games for the Wii.

[@Sigismund697]

It's been fascinating to me that Kirby went 11 years without a game after Crystal Shards when development of a new one started right after CS but they kept discarding them

[@matthewmangan6251]

There wasn’t an 11 year hiatus though, Amazing Mirror, Squeak Squad, Canvas Curse and Epic Yarn all came in between

[@samuelmelendez7566]

I just installed the demo for the Forgotten Land, seeing this video makes me want to play the full game

[@Naloogi]

Something even more interesting is that not only is Forgotten Land a 3D Kirby game, like the 2nd pre-Return to Dream Land cancelled Kirby game, but it also has upgradable Copy Abilities, just like that 3rd pop-up book styled game was going to have. So not only does Forgotten Land likely have influence from the cancelled 3D Kirby game, but also the pop-up book one.

[@kingnewcomer2029]

Once again, solid lost media video, LSSQ! :D Kirby Of The Stars is by far one of my favorite Nintendo franchises (even though HAL is the actual creation of the series), and one of my favorite videogame franchises period, and I'm really happy to see Nintendo, and HAL FINALLY make an official 3D Kirby game: "Kirby Of The Stars Discovery"! It looks very promising so far! I love the new "Mouthful Transformations"! I hope it does well enough for future 3D installments! It's pretty cool to see cancelled ideas for potential Kirby games get resurrected in some form, and I hope that continues onward! I don't think I've ever even heard of "Kid Kirby" until just now, but I do love the way the characters looked, maybe some day we'll get to see it in full action! The last image you've shown of Sword Kirby in the 3D environment with the square-shaped platforms looked very similar to the style of Kirby's Inhale Operation on the Nintendo 3DS eShop, which in turn was also based on one of the 2 sub-games from Kirby Of The Stars: Robobo Planet. I wouldn't be too surprised if that's where they got the inspiration from for that spin-off title. I do remember the Game Boy Advance Video cartridges (though I forget if I ever owned any). They were an interesting concept (despite the fact that it was actually an American exclusive only); being able to watch your favorite TV cartoons/movies on the go! Nice that there were even plans for a Kirby Of The Stars anime GBAV too, just a shame it never happened when it was on the air at the time (even if I'm not a fan of how the English dub heavily butchered the show like a lot of kid anime were when officially localized). I look forward to your next video!

[@MetaKnuxXbeats]

Cancelled Kirby games always fascinated me for over a decade now… geez… it’s really been that long… anyways, the game that really fascinated me the most with the cancelled GCN Kirby game that allegedly became Return to Dreamland. It really looked like my personal dream Kirby game and it ended up getting cancelled though I can at least say that the Kirby games after that cancelled game did took bits and pieces of that game.

[@dysphoria-chan]

Welp, there was a 3D platformer before Forgotten Land: Kirby Blowout Blast And even so, it is based on a Planet Robobot minigame

[@vacuumblink2300]

Thank you. Everyone forgets about this. It also became a stand alone title for the eshop

[@cookimaus1]

From the small bit of footage on Kirby bowl 64 and airide we have, I have to say what we see honestly looks really really good. Very high poly looking for the n64 era, though that’s to be expected with the simple nature of Kirby’s designs. still, it looks like a early 6th gen game. So smooth looking… wow

[@cookiesnqueen2625]

There's also another episode of the anime where the english dub's only known recording had water damage, so the end is cut off. I can't remember the name off the top of my head, but it's the episode where Dedede tries to make an art gallery.

[@timbo303official9]

Unfortunately nintendo has been reluctant to re-release the dub. This is yet another reason I hate nintendo. If only 4kids still existed. I know nintendo still has the master tapes because they released a couple of episodes on the kirby dream land collection game. Unfortunately it didn't contain the two lost episode endings.

[@theghosttm8245]

@@timbo303official9 I remember that. At the time those 3 episodes chosen 2 of them were already on KZbin. What wasn’t iirc, is Waddle While you Work where DDD sells the Waddle Dees and the castle is just so empty. He tries to eat Dynablades chick as well.

[@mightyfilm]

I don't know if this would also be considered lost, but when 4Kids launched the Kirby anime, both them and Nintendo were planning to make Kirby the next Pikachu, with a lot of planned merchandising that never went anywhere. I don't know to which extent they planned things, or what potential companies and licenses they were seeking or what they were set to release. What I remember seeing, the only things that ever got released were a Wendy's Kid's meal and a small run of little figural key chains that were impossible to find. As for the anime, I'm surprised Discotek didn't try to get the license for that series, dubbed or otherwise, for home release or streaming. It would probably be like Sonic X or Fighting Foodons and we'd only get the dub series (too edited down for a bilingual original track), but it would at least be something.

[@cabbusses]

Nice video! While this doesn't really fit in.with all the "cancelled" Kirby games, I would like to bring up the status of recovering and preserving the "Kirby no Omochabako" line if Satellaview minigames. Many years ago the majority of these were undumped and with no future release, so they may had fit a video like this. Currently, I am on the lookout for: A "good" dump of Arrange Ball A dump of "Megaton Punch" A dump of "Setsuna no Mi Kiri" The first one has a "bad" dump where it is hard to spot the error, and is very playable otherwise. The latter two are believed to be standalone versions of Kirby Superstar minigames. Also, in various Nintendo press material, alleged screenshots of these games with a score HUD that does not match what was recovered are circulating, suggesting that rereleases with revisions may had been planned. Any more info on that would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

[@timjennings4342]

I will contest you on one point. You absolutely do hear people talking about canceled games and beta contact nowadays. Maybe not in this particular circle, but those 2020 Nintendo leaks, that mass uploading of beta games from the PS2 and GameCube era, and the sonic beta community doing what they do every day. Besides, with how often games come out anymore, you have people on our side of the community mining new releases for code and beta assets like every week. There are constantly new discoveries being made.

[@tbtb66]

I think the interesting about Kirby GCN is how it transformed into games we know today We played it when it was called Super Smash Bros. Brawl, played it when it was called Return to Dream Land, and when it was Star Allies The original GC game may not see the light of day, but you can feel the elements and ideas from the game all these years after

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

As much of Kirby GCN went into RTDL, it was mostly bosses and story elements. The main mechanics went more into Star Allies, and to a lesser extent Triple Deluxe and Planet Robobot. And those are my favorite games in the series so far.

[@4zumarill]

@@OtakuUnitedStudio To add on, the funky camera angles from 64 have finally fully returned in Forgotten Land! Still would be nice to see GCN, but thank god those ideas never got the chopping block!

[@panochaberta1248]

Actually Kirby GCN was going to be some kind of spiritual succesor/direct follow up to Kirby 64. Some interesting facts about late kirby games borrowing elements from the cancelled GCN game: Super star ultra revamped morpho knight to galacta knight. Mass Attack Included the mecha dedede in one minigame KRTDL Almost everything, but even the creators called it a spiritual successor of GCN in the 20th anniversary collection. KTD revamped unused tracks from GCN and minor enemies. KPR. resolution road was based on unused stage concept. Also the return of 2.5D visuals Star allies. return of the helper mechanic. Morpho knight.

No joke, I actually remember as a really small child when Kirby right back at ya aired on 4kids, but I actually didn't know it was a Kirby animated series, rather before i thought it was like a crossover between sonic x and kirby or some sort of smash bros animated series. I only remember king dedede sitting and watching TV until someone else came in and talked to him. I only found out I think last year or in 2020 when I found out about the series

that lost 3D game looks very similar to Kirby 3D rumble/Blowout Blast, technically those in the first 3D platformers in the series. have you never heard of these?

[@autistictips1161]

The riding on your friends thing and other aspects of Kirby's Adventure are we used on the switch game Kirby Star Allies (2018).

[@MegaSombra]

Actually, it seems that the second cancelled GameCube game got reworked as Kirby 3D Rumble and Kirby Battle Royale. K3DR is a subgame from Planet Robobot where you go through linear stages that look identical to the one in the screenshot but with the Triple Deluxe/RTDL artstyle, spitting stars and doing combos to defeat hordes of enemies as quick as possible. And Battle Royale is a 3D fighting/party game hybrid where you get to choose your own copy ability to compete in minigames against 3 other characters There's also Blowout Blast but for the most part it's basically just a retelling of the first Kirby's Dream Land with 3D Rumble gameplay. Still fun though

[@noodletribunal9793]

unfortunately(or fortunately), that kirby bowl demo was probably on a cart that they used for multiple demos over the years, like how they found oot beta demo content on an fzero demo cart. so either kirby bowl has been overwritten completely or discarded, being lost forever, or it could be hidden at least partially on a demo cart somewhere. as for the air ride 64 game, would be nice if it turned up! same for the kirby tumble stuff i guess. so sad seeing these wips on video but never being able to play them! it was probably cancelled because it excludes consumers that didnt own both a gameboy and a gamecube. they could have maybe packaged the wire with the game but still, not a great business practice, refer to the genesis's multiple addons 19:56 look, a grid! oooo i wanna play that last game! i love the simplistic look of it! there a few details in the foreground too, like an area off screen with a fly, a tree, and some kind of elevator platform, maybe?

[@MultiDiegodani]

when I saw about Kirby right back at ya I thought you were going to mention a or also the Latin Spanish dubbing, for a while almost everyone will be lost and only having a few chapters of the first seasons and the last, After 2020, everything from the first season and almost from the second was found, but even so the rest are lost and in the case of Spain it is worse.

Kirby is my favorite game series, it has been as long as I can remember, I was watching the cartoon, going on the website(which had games and is now lost media) and playing the games going way back to the mid 1990s (remember those days anyone?). Nostalgia kick to my brain, ouch.

[@goldenyoshi924]

[@stevenwhuntva]

God I hated that a lot of shows were pre-empted cut because of baseball back in the 4Kids days. They did end up airing some of the episodes way earlier, as was told when I wrote to my local station about them. Like 4:30 AM early.

[@Poyostar]

I wouldn't say that Kirby Air Ride was the ONLY Kirby spin-off game to be playable in 3D; there's Kirby's Blowout Blast, which in itself is an expansion of the Kirby 3D Rumble subgame from Planet Robobot, and Kirby Battle Royale. Heck, even Kirby's Dream Course could be considered a 3D Kirby game in the same sense that Sonic 3D Blast could be considered a 3D Sonic game, so it could be argued that Kirby has been taking some dips into the realm of 3D ever since 1994! But with that said, Kirby & The Forgotten Land is still monumentally important for the series what with it being a 3D MAINLINE Kirby game and not a spin-off, and as a longtime fan I couldn't possibly be as hyped as I am now. And to think it'll be releasing in just a few weeks...! Also, regarding the topic of Kirby lost media, I'm surprised that Kirby's Toy Box wasn't brought up. For those unaware, Kirby's Toy Box is a series of minigames that were available through the Japanese Satellaview service in the mid-1990s. There were ten games in total, with the first eight being ball-themed minigames and the final two being trial versions of the Megaton Punch and Samurai Kirby subgames from Kirby Super Star, which hadn't been released in Japan yet at the time. Now, considering how quite a few games released on the Satellaview have become lost, you'd think that these games (or atleast a grand majority of them) would've been lost to time following the discontinuation of the Satellaview service. Thankfully though, this isn't the case, as over the years eight of the ten minigames have been preserved by various people, with the only two that still remain missing being the trial versions of the Kirby Super Star subgames. Thank goodness for game preservation! If you want more information on these games and what they are like, I strongly suggest you check out the article for Kirby's Toy Box on WiKirby. With all that said though, this isn't too bad for a compilation of various bits of lost media regarding the Kirby series. Great work!

Either way though, Kirby's future truly is looking brighter than ever before, and I have full faith in HAL that Forgotten Land will deliver...

I'd like to see them try to make another Kirby Anime series, maybe one that takes place after RBaY so that they already have something to work with, and incorporate elements from other Kirby Games, like new characters, new enemies, new powers, and have the main villain be someone like maybe Zero2 from Kirby64?

[@PASTELXENON]

what do you mean by most of Kirby air ride being a mystery, that made me intrigued

[@KnuxtheFanGirl]

Is Kirby Right Back At Ya on any streaming services?

[@genialkirby]

No, but there's a Blu Ray Boxset which remasters the whole series. The only issue: Is Japanese exclusive :(

[@KnuxtheFanGirl]

@@genialkirby I'm guessing without English subs? 😭

I wish Nintendo officially rereleased the JP version of the Kirby show..

Imagine if Kirby tilt n tumble 2 was on a Nintendo DS since it uses two split screens

[@thecartoonace5760]

Ok about that episode: actually somebody did record the full episode it’s just that the video is split into 5 videos

[@Vee_Sheep]

honestly, there's really not much to wonder and miss from Kirby GCN, since a lot of it became Return to Dream Land (the visuals, Water ability, 4 player co-op, the giant robot boss) and anything that didn't went on to be added to Star Allies (summoning helpers, 4 character stack, the exact same redesign of the Clean ability) sadly, i'm pretty sure none of them had the round golem enemy, so honestly what's even the point /jk

It’s not letting me play the video

4:00 Wait, Kirby’s Adventure is meant to be Kirby Returns To Dreamland? My copy of the game is CALLED Kirby’s Adventure yet is the exact same as Kirby Returns To Dreamland? Does anyone know why mine is called that? (Edit: I'm aware now that it's just named "Kirby's Adventure Wii" in Europe. Sorry!)

[@yamperwolf1478]

In Europe, the game is called Kirby's Adventure Wii, while in America is called Return to Dreamland, but they are the same exact game, only local title has changed between countries

@@yamperwolf1478 I realise this now, sorry for not editing the comment before + thanks for reminding me!

Actually this isnt the first Kirby 3D platformer, that goes to Blowout Blast on the 3DS and its subgame from Planet Robobot
