Miiverse Archive
When Kirby: Triple Deluxe first released in 2014, the developers of the game used Miiverse, Nintendo's former social network, to share details and tidbits about the game. As Miiverse is no longer accessible since November 2017, we've transcribed all of the posts made by HAL's official Miiverse account and recreated them for posterity's sake. Some interesting details were only ever shared through Miiverse, so we hope you enjoy!

Kirby's copy abilities give him multiple ways to fight, and now he even has a new ability called Hypernova that amplifies his inhale. But did you know that Kirby's regular abilities are actually pretty strong, too? It can be a fun challenge to try to clear a level using only Kirby's ability to inhale enemies and blocks, then spit them out as Star Bullets. Have fun discovering other fun ways to play the game!

Although King Dedede has always been Kirby's biggest rival, this time Dedede gets taken away by Taranza at the beginning of Story Mode! Will the king wait patiently for Kirby to come save him?
​
Don't worry, King Dedede fans, you can have fun using him as a playable character as many times as you want in Dedede's Drum Dash!

The mysterious Taranza whisks King Dedede away to Floralia, but his motives are unknown. As Kirby goes through the stages, you can sometimes catch glimpses of Taranza carrying off King Dedede. Will Kirby ever catch up to Taranza, and what is his true objective?

In Floralia, not only can you travel from foreground to background, you'll also interact with these different areas during the game. For example, you can shoot blocks in the background using the 3D Tilt Missile, or dodge obstacles that leap out from the background such as the Springy Hand and the Waddle Dee Train. Turn up the 3D slider on your Nintendo 3DS system to experience these exciting effects to the fullest!

Kirby gets a cool horn with the new Beetle copy ability. Try using Horn Upper to scoop up enemies or unleash a quick attack with Rocket Horn. The horn can also catch multiple enemies at once and hammer stakes. Inhale enemies like Beetley and Hornhead to try it out!

Have you tried the new Archer ability yet? Doesn't Kirby look charming wearing a fashionable hat while sniping enemies with arrows? The Archer ability enables three levels of attacks depending on the amount of power you charge up: the Shot, Snipe Shot, and Magic-Star Arrow. You can also use Arrow Slash to attack enemies up close. Kirby using his Hitman attack while hiding behind a bush is quite a sight, too! For the Archer ability, inhale a Spynum before it hits you!

The attacks from the new Bell copy ability look quite different from the other abilities. That's because Kirby strikes enemies with the melody that flows out of the bells in each hand. By continuously attacking enemies with Ring-ding, the attack powers up to Ring-ding-dong, then to Ding Finale. To attack enemies who are farther away, throw the bells left and right simultaneously using Twin Tinker. The bell on Kirby's head can also serve as protection by using Bell Block. To obtain the Bell ability, inhale a Ringle when you see it in the game!
