*Nintendo Switch [[Kirby Star Allies Channel|''Kirby Star Allies'' Channel]] Article #22 mentions that the score can reach 700,000 points if Soul Melter EX is cleared fast enough. To reach a score of 700,000, Soul Melter EX has to be cleared under 20:55.40 and when playing in multiplayer, P1 must not be KO'd and revived. Meanwhile, it's impossible to reach 710,000 because that requires Soul Melter EX to be cleared under 04:15.40, which is not known to be currently possible. The highest theoretical score, if every boss was defeated in under one second, would be 712,554.

*An unused file of the "[[Ripple Star: Stage Select|Helper's Rest]]" theme from ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'' is included among the files for Soul Melter EX's rest area themes, suggesting it was a potential candidate before the final line-up was decided.

*In the Japanese version of ''Kirby Star Allies'', when starting Soul Melter EX the final button to begin reads 「…がんばる!!」 ("Good luck!" in the English version of the game, with a more direct translation being "try your hardest!") instead of the usual 「スタート」 ("Start"). This is an apparent reference to the [[0²]] battle in ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards'' changing the 「でなおす」 ("Try Again") button in the pause screen to read 「がんばる」 ("Tough It Out!" in the English version of ''Kirby 64'').
*Several aspects of The Ultimate Choice reference previous titles in the ''Kirby'' series:
**The screen displayed when unlocking Soul Melter EX references the screen displayed when unlocking Extra Game in ''Kirby's Dream Land''; in addition to using the same command, the screen shows [[King Dedede]]'s shocked expression and points out the buttons used to input the command on the controller, just like said screen. The title of the dialogue box is "♥Good Job!" (or, in Japanese, ♥クリア おめでとう!), which is the same title on that screen in ''Kirby's Dream Land'' (though without the heart in the English version's case).
**In the Japanese version of ''Kirby Star Allies'', when starting Soul Melter EX, the dialogue box displays:「{{color|orange|{{furi|魂|たましい}}が{{furi|飛|と}}び{{furi|出|で}}る{{furi|辛|から}}さ EX}}… {{furi|後悔|こうかい}}しますよ。」("{{color|orange|Soul Melter EX...}} you'll regret this.") This is a reference to the recurring dialogue prompt that displays when attempting to delete a save file,「{{color|red|こうかいしませんね?}}」("You're sure you won't regret this?", or more literally "No regrets, right?"). It is somewhat missed in the English localization, which translates「{{furi|後悔|こうかい}}しますよ。」as "No regrets!" and「{{color|red|こうかいしませんね?}}」as "Are you {{color|red|REALLY}} sure?"
**The button to press when starting Soul Melter EX reads「…がんばる!!」("Good luck!" in the English version of the game, with a more direct translation being "try your hardest!") instead of the usual「スタート」("Start"). This is an apparent reference to the [[0²]] battle in ''Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards'' changing the「でなおす」("Try Again") button in the pause screen to read「がんばる」("Tough It Out!" in the English version of ''Kirby 64'').
