In the ''Kirby Super Star Ultra''-exclusive main game [[Helper to Hero]], Joe, apart from being playable, appears in the opening sequence and in the [[boss]] picture for [[Wham Bam Jewel]]. Since [[Waddle Dee]] appears on the file select screen and life counter, these two could be considered to be the "mascots" of helpers. Knuckle Joe also appears on a card in [[Kirby Card Swipe]] and as a target in [[Kirby on the Draw]], with the target using his design from the anime.
