Game appearances
Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards
In Template:K64, a cell phone appears briefly to call a Warp Star before final battle with 0².
Kirby & The Amazing Mirror
Known mostly due to its helpful qualities in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, it is available from the start of the game after completing the first level. The Cell Phone is activated by pressing the L or R buttons, and appears on the top-left of the screen on the HUD.
Functions
Functions depend on which button the player presses. Pressing the R button calls Kirby's alternative selves, but consumes battery power. Kirby can cancel the call if the R button is pressed again, but it will still consume battery power nonetheless. After the other Kirbys arrive, Kirby himself can regain health by touching them. Pressing and holding the L button summons a Warp Star, which brings Kirby back to the Central Circle of Rainbow Route. Using this function does not consume any battery power, so, in-turn, it can be used when the battery power is zero. Similar to how the summoning function can be canceTemplate:Led, Kirby can cancel the call by releasing the L button.
Multiplayer
When playing the game with a link cable, using the cellphone with the R button causes the linked players' screens to darken, and a choice between helping the calling Kirby or not will appear by pressing the R button. This can be used to solve puzzles which the Kirbys cannot handle by themselves.
Kirby Super Star Ultra
The cell-phone appears as a treasure in The Great Cave Offensive, replacing the dud in the original [[Kirby Super Star|Template:KSS KFP]] version.
Kirby Star Allies
Four cell phones appear in Kirbys hands on "The Great Labyrinth Battle" Celebration Picture on Kirby & The Amazing Mirror side of the picture.
Trivia
- As well as changing Kirby's colTemplate:Or, the Spray Paint option also changes the colTemplate:Or of the Cell Phone.
- When Kirby uses his cell-phone while in UFO form, he uses a satellite dish that extends from his head instead.
