List of Kirby Project Names
| Project Name(s) | Game | Platform | Initial Release | Name Location | Notes | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| wadogo | Kirby Mass Attack | DS | August | 2011 | arm9, WADO_SND_new.sdat, "1_WADOGO_logo_US_0704 copy.jpg" from Nintendo France press | "small/young" (Swahili); "Wado" may derive from "Waddle Dee" ("Wadorudi" in Japanese) |
| GCK / KbyW / IUK | Kirby's Return to Dream Land | Wii | October | 2011 | From internal music filenames: fanfare_GCK, ST_KbyW_FUNK1, IUK_LP_ROCK1, etc. | Return to Dream Land went through four iterations, so as a result the music is spread between a few different filenames. "GCK" is presumed to be "GameCube Kirby", referring to the game's earliest iteration; "KbyW" is likely "Kirby Wii". An unused beta version of "IUK_LP_ROCK1" is listed as "KbyW_ROCK1", so "IUK" is likely the final development codename. |
