The later stages of [[Prism Plains]] take place within Castle Dedede. Here, the castle resembles its appearance in the anime. Compared to ''Kirby Super Star'', the castle's innards are much darker in color scheme, using earthy browns and reds. | The later stages of [[Prism Plains]] take place within Castle Dedede.

Castle Dedede appears in the intro cut-scene. Here, it has been lifted into the air by the [[Dreamstalk]] along with Kirby's House. Kirby goes to check in on Dedede when [[Taranza]] comes in to steal the king from his [[Spear Waddle Dee]]s on guard. After making off with Dedede, the castle itself is not seen again until the end of the credits sequence for [[Dededetour!]], where it is safely back on the ground. | Castle Dedede appears in the intro cut-scene.

Castle Dedede appears briefly in the intro and ending cut-scenes for this game. King Dedede tries to fire cannons from his castle at the approach of the [[Access Ark]], but a giant laser is fired at the castle which destroys it utterly. Later on, King Dedede and his Waddle Dees are found in the rubble, relatively unharmed. | Castle Dedede appears briefly in the intro and ending cut-scenes for this game.

Castle Dedede makes its only appearance in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. It appears only in The Subspace Emissary mode, where it somewhat takes an important role in the game's plot. Interestingly, ''Brawl''{{'}}s version of Castle Dedede is reminiscent of the [[wikipedia:Gothic architecture|gothic architecture]] from the 12th century. It is located in the [[smashwiki:World of Trophies|World of Trophies]], on top of a wasteland-like area, surrounded by mountains and dead trees. During the game's story, [[King Dedede]] puts [[smashwiki:Dedede Brooch|Dedede Brooches]] on his captured trophies, but then is knocked out by pieces of the ceiling that fall on him. Later, the castle is sucked into Subspace using a [[smashwiki:Subspace Bomb|Subspace Bomb]] by the Ancient Minister. | Castle Dedede makes its only appearance in the ''[[Super Smash Bros.

In ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'', Castle Dedede is one of the major landmarks in [[Dream Land (anime)|Dream Land]] and the home of many of the show's characters. As such, it makes several appearances as a setting for the episodes. Castle Dedede is perched atop a perilously steep cliff face overlooking [[Cappy Town]] with a long winding road leading up to it. The castle itself is home to a very large number of [[Waddle Dee (anime character)|Waddle Dee]]s (so many in fact that not even their [[Captain Waddle Doo]] knows how many there are) who act as servants in exchange for the living space. It is from within the castle that [[King Dedede (anime character)|King Dedede]] and [[Escargoon]] call upon [[Night Mare Enterprises]] to send them more [[monster]]s using [[Night Mare Enterprises Teleporter|a built-in teleportation system]]. These monsters more often than not end up damaging or destroying the castle, though it is always rebuilt by the next episode. | In ''[[Kirby: Right Back at Ya!]]'', Castle Dedede is one of the major landmarks in [[Dream Land (anime)|Dream Land]] and the home of many of the show's characters.

*One notable aspect of the castle is that its interior varies wildly between each depiction, and is often much more extensive on the inside than would be suspected possible given the relatively compact nature of the castle as seen from the outside. Such spatial contortions are common in video games and other visual media (usually referred to with the saying 'bigger on the inside'), and allows for more complex stage design while still allowing for an easy-to-visualize landmark. The only real exception to this is the castle's portrayal in the opening cut-scene of ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]'', where the inside and outside appear to be congruous. | *One notable aspect of the castle is that its interior varies wildly between each depiction, and is often much more extensive on the inside than would be suspected possible given the relatively compact nature of the castle as seen from the outside.
