'''Kirby's History''' is one of the three main modes selectable from the main menu in ''[[Kirby's Dream Collection Special Edition]]''. In this game mode, [[Kirby]] walks through a long and lavishly-decorated hallway to look at all of the games in the [[Kirby (series)|''Kirby'' series]] that had been released up to that point (2012), as well as a few extra items. Each game or item comes with a description, along with a view of the box art and some demo snippets of the game or media in question.

== Overview and controls == | The hall itself has a stop for each year between 1992 (the release of ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]'') and 2012 (the release of ''Kirby's Dream Collection''), with an additional stop for years prior to 1992. Most of the tall pillars in the hallway are topped with golden statues of Kirby, but statues of Rick, Kine, Coo and a Waddle Dee also appear on the pillars; these are randomly placed every time the mode is loaded. | ||
==Overview and controls== | |||
In the "Kirby's History" hallway, the player has control of Kirby, but only to a limited capacity. Pressing right or up on the + Control Pad or Control Stick will make Kirby walk down the hallway towards later years, and pressing left or down will make him walk back up toward earlier ones. With a tap, Kirby will automatically move to the next item and then stop, but holding down the direction makes him run past items until the direction is released or he reaches an end of the hall. When Kirby is stopped next to an item, the player can make him attempt to inhale it by pressing A. Doing this next to highlighted media will activate the sub-menu for the item(s) (Kirby will "copy" the media), but attempting to inhale a statue will just cause Kirby to get tired. | In the "Kirby's History" hallway, the player has control of Kirby, but only to a limited capacity.

|colspan=2|In the Japanese | |colspan=2|In the Japanese version, ''Kirby: Right Back at Ya!'' is shown at the 2001 stop due to the anime premiering its first episode that year in Japan. The episodes included in both versions are the same, but the North American version uses their respective English dubbed versions, and naturally include the differences made when dubbing those episodes. Moreover, in the Japanese version, the [[Stadium: Kirby Melee]] theme from ''Kirby Air Ride'' plays on the sub-menu rather than the ''Kirby: Right Back at Ya!'' theme. | ||
