Here, Kirby will dance under two conditions: after completing the goal game, and after defeating a boss (with the exception of [[Dark Nebula]]). If Kirby completes a level without getting any treasure, he will dance shortly and create no copies. If he obtains at least one treasure chest, big or small, he will do the long dance. He will also create copies for each treasure chest (excluding the first one). So if he gets 1 treasure chest, he will create no copies, if he gets 2, 1 copy, and if he gets 3, 2 copies. After the dance is over, Kirby and his copies will each open the treasure chest they appeared next to.

File:Kirby Dance - Kirby Super Star.ogg
This jingle usually plays when Kirby does his dance. (Kirby Super Star version.)

Kirby and 2 copies pose triumphantly after completing the Kirby Dance in Kirby's Adventure.

The Kirby Dance is a dance Kirby does in most of his games. Kirby's "dance moves" (sprites used in the dance) within the dance may vary between games and scenarios. Mostly in older games where game memory was limited, it is a common tradition to reuse sprites that already have a use elsewhere during the Kirby Dance. Usually, the dance starts whenever Kirby completes a level, but in some games, like Kirby's Dream Land 3, Kirby will only dance under specific circumstances, usually when he defeats a boss. In the games where he does dance regularly, he may create 2 copies of himself and dance for a longer period of time upon obtaining a Star Rod piece or when he gets the best possible score in the Goal Game, for example.

Game appearances

This article or section is under construction. Therefore, please excuse its informal appearance while it's being worked on. We hope to have it completed as soon as possible.
No reason has been specified.

Kirby's Dream Land

In this game, Kirby will dance whenever he obtains a Sparkling Star. However, upon obtaining the final Sparkling Star, Kirby will do a different and much shorter dance, and the normal Kirby Dance jingle will not play.

Kirby's Adventure / Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land

In this game, Kirby will dance when he completes the Goal Game or when he obtains a Star Rod piece. Getting to the top platform of the Goal Game or obtaining a Star Rod piece will make Kirby create 2 copies of himself and dance for a longer period of time, as earlier mentioned.

Kirby's Dream Course

Kirby will dance upon completing every course except Course Dedede. Kirby will always do the long version and create copies no matter what his score is.

Kirby's Dream Land 2

Here, Kirby will dance after the Goal Game or whenever he defeats a boss, with the exceptions of King Dedede and Dark Matter. If Kirby is currently with an Animal Friend, they will participate as well. Kirby will not create copies of himself in the Goal Game no matter how high he gets, but when he defeats a boss, (besides the bosses listed above) he will create copies of himself. If Kirby is currently with an animal friend, they will not be copied, but will still participate in the dance.

Kirby Super Star / Kirby Super Star Ultra

In Kirby Super Star and it's remake, the Kirby Dance is performed in 4 out of the 11 modes. In addition, during the Kirby Master video in Kirby Super Star Ultra, Kirby will do the long version of the dance, however instead of creating copies, two Waddle Dees join him. It should be noted that in the game modes, if a helper is currently assisting Kirby, they will also participate. Also, the short version of the dance's jingle sounds different than the long version, and the Kirby Master video plays a different-sounding jingle than the other two versions, however the only differences between versions (besides the length, of course) is that different instruments are used. The modes the dance is performed in are the following:

Spring Breeze

Like in Kirby's Dream Land, Kirby will do a long dance and create copies whenever he obtains a sparkling star, except for the star he obtains after defeating King Dedede, where he will do a shorter dance without creating copies. However, unlike in Kirby's Dream Land, the Kirby Dance jingle will play.

Dyna Blade

In Dyna Blade, Kirby performs a short dance without creating copies upon completing the Goal Game.

Milky Way wishes

In this mode, Kirby will dance shortly without creating copies upon obtaining a sparkling star from a planet.

Revenge of the King

Here, Kirby will dance after obtaining a sparkling star and after defeating King Dedede. He will perform the long dance and create copies upon obtaining a sparkling star, and perform the short dance without copies after defeating King Dedede. The jingle will once again play after defeating King Dedede.

Kirby's Dream Land 3

In this game, Kirby will dance after defeating every boss except King Dedede, Dark Matter, and Zero. If Kirby is controlling an animal friend, they will once again dance with Kirby. In this game, Kirby will only do the short version of his dance, and will not create copies.

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror

In Kirby & The Amazing Mirror, Kirby will dance after obtaining a Mirror Shard or after completing a Goal Game. Kirby will dance for a longer period of time when he obtains a mirror shard than when he completes a Goal Game. Kirby will not create copies of himself under any circumstances, though he will dance with any of the other Kirby clones who may be present. When all four are together, they can end with a unique pose.

Kirby: Squeak Squad

Here, Kirby will dance under two conditions: after completing the Goal Game, and after defeating a boss (with the exception of Dark Nebula). If Kirby completes a level without getting any treasure, he will dance shortly and create no copies. If he obtains at least one treasure chest, big or small, he will do the long dance. He will also create copies for each treasure chest (excluding the first one). So if he gets 1 treasure chest, he will create no copies, if he gets 2, 1 copy, and if he gets 3, 2 copies. After the dance is over, Kirby and his copies will each open the treasure chest they appeared next to.

Kirby's Return to Dream Land

In this game, Kirby will dance after completing the Goal Game, after obtaining a piece of the Lor Starcutter, and during the Kirby Master video. He will dance for a short period of time after completing the Goal Game if his score is under 1, and dance for a long period of time if his score is 1. He will always dance for a long period of time after any of the two latter conditions are met. Additionally, during the Kirby Master video, along with normal Kirby, King Dedede, Meta Knight, and Bandana Waddle Dee, a yellow Kirby will join the dance, which is presumably a copy. Aside from that, Kirby never creates copies during the dance.

Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition

While the game is mostly a compilation of 6 games, it does introduce 13 new challenge stages. While Kirby doesn't seem to be in the mood for dancing, the dance's jingle will play during the results screen of a stage.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe

Once again, Kirby will dance after the Goal Game. If his score is less than 1, he does a short dance, and if his score is 1, he does a long dance. He will not create copies after completing the Goal Game. He will also dance after obtaining a grand Sun Stone, and do the long dance, as well as creating copies. Finally, during the Kirby Master video, Kirby does the long version, and is joined by King Dedede.

Kirby: Planet Robobot

Here, Kirby will dance after the Goal Game, once again dancing for a long period of time if is score is 1 and a shorter period of time if his score is less than 1, without creating copies in either conditions. He'll dance for a long period of time and create copies when he defeats every boss besides Mecha Knight+, President Haltmann, and the final boss.

Kirby Star Allies

Kirby will dance after the Goal Game. He'll perform a long dance if his score is 1, and a short dance if his score is less than 1. He'll dance for a long period when he defeats every story mode boss, (except the final boss) as well as every boss in Heroes in Another Dimension, dancing for a long period of time. While he never creates copies after either condition is met, he'll dance with any active friends.

Team Kirby Clash Deluxe / Super Kirby Clash

While the Kirby Dance is never performed by Kirby or his teammates, the Kirby Dance jingle will play when the results screen appears upon successfully completing a quest, similarly to Kirby's Dream Collection: Special Edition.
