The Story Behind Kirby's Dream Course
While Kirby was always intended to be pink, Shigeru Miyamoto assumed during development of Kirby's Dream Land that Kirby was yellow, as there was no color artwork of Kirby available at the time. HAL later reworked Special Tee Shot into a Kirby game by replacing many of the original characters with those from the Kirby series, and implementing several mechanics to make it fit into the Kirby universe, such as the power-up system. It also featured an additional gamemode where the player controlled Kirby on a snowboard.
The sequel was never released, though some of its concepts were later implemented into Kirby Air Ride (2003). It is one of thirty games included in the Super NES Classic Edition miniconsole. This palette was named once as "Keeby Yellow" in Kirby's Dream Buffet (2022).
