*Although Kirby has always been pink in Japanese box arts, there was a little bit of confusion abroad at first, resulting in Kirby being portrayed as white on international box arts of ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. | *Although Kirby has always been pink in Japanese box arts, there was a little bit of confusion abroad at first, resulting in Kirby being portrayed as white on international box arts of ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. | ||
*From ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'' to ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'', four-player multiplayer consistently used Kirbys colored in pink, yellow, red, and green. Starting in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'', however, blue has been the consistent third color instead of red. This is likely because red is closer in shade to Kirby's default pink, while blue is more identifiable. ''Kirby Battle Royale'' notably lacks a red Kirby altogether, opting to use orange instead. ''Kirby's Dream Buffet'' keeps the same pink-yellow-blue-green layout, but red is the first color to be unlocked, likely referencing its previous role. | *From ''Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land'' to ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'', four-player multiplayer consistently used Kirbys colored in pink, yellow, red, and green.

**However, in ''Kirby's Return to Dream Land'', Blue Kirby's HUD icons are called "KirbyRFace." indicating that red was originally going to be the player 3 color. | |||
*While several colors of Kirby are consistent throughout the series, the color of the cheek blushes can change on the other palettes. Some games change the cheek blush to match the color, while others keep the blush a dark pink on all colors. | *While several colors of Kirby are consistent throughout the series, the color of the cheek blushes can change on the other palettes.

*Two alternate colors of Kirby have official nicknames: '''[[Keeby]]''' is the yellow Kirby from ''Kirby's Dream Course'' (a pun on the Japanese word for "yellow"), and '''くさもちカービィ'''<ref name=ssb>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n01/n64/software/nus_p_nalj/smash/ChrFrameLayout.html ''Super Smash Bros. (64)'' official website (JP) - Secrets of fighters' alternative colors]</ref> (''Kusa mochi'' Kirby) is the green Kirby from the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros.]]'' series. ''[[wikipedia:Kusa mochi|Kusa mochi]]'' (literally "grass [[wikipedia:mochi|mochi]]") is a green Japanese sweet. Both of these names are used as the colors for the default yellow and green Kirbys in ''Kirby's Dream Buffet'', though "''Kusa mochi'' Green" is translated into English as "Tea Green". | *Two alternate colors of Kirby have official nicknames: '''[[Keeby]]''' is the yellow Kirby from ''Kirby's Dream Course'' (a pun on the Japanese word for "yellow"), and '''くさもちカービィ'''<ref name=ssb>[https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n01/n64/software/nus_p_nalj/smash/ChrFrameLayout.html ''Super Smash Bros.
