1* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The game wasn't officially re-released until 2023 (via UsefulNotes/NintendoSwitch Online's Game Boy app, taking advantage of the system's motion controls) thanks to it being reliant on the cartridge's built-in motion sensors to be played; even third-party UsefulNotes/{{emulat|ion}}ors and flash carts had difficulty replicating the motion controls. As a result, while not ''too'' rare, the game fetched a pretty penny on secondhand gaming markets simply because that was the only way to reliably play it for over two decades, and even a loose cartridge could cost you.
2* NoExportForYou: This game originally wasn't released in Europe for reasons unknown. But it did [[LateExportForYou finally]] have a release over twenty years later.
3* PropRecycling: Most of Kirby's voice clips are recycled from ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros64''.
4* WhatCouldHaveBeen: [[https://www.ign.com/articles/2001/01/23/kirby-keeps-his-tilt According to this article]], the game was going to be [[DolledUpInstallment rebranded]] as a ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'' game outside Japan due to ''Pokémon'' 's major popularity at the time.
