List of HAL Laboratory Miiverse posts - Kirby: Planet Robobot
The following is a complete list of all American English Kirby: Planet Robobot Miiverse posts from its Behind the Scenes special community, posted by Satoshi Ishida.
Notably, unlike the other two special Miiverse communities, this one had the least posts, and it mostly consisted of posts of the "Kirby: Planet Robobot Ask-a-thon" and the results of the "Kirby: Planet Robobot Drawing and Screenshot Challenge".

June 10th, 2016 10:23:00 AM | Hi everyone! I'm Satoshi Ishida from HAL Laboratory, and, starting today, I'll be sharing information about "Kirby: Planet Robobot" with all of you in the community. I hope you're as excited as I am! Today I've got a message from Mr Kumazaki, the game's director.
"Hello, this is Shinya Kumazaki, the director of "Kirby: Planet Robobot". The game is officially being released today! "In this instalment of the Kirby series, the overarching theme was machinery and technology, which was quite unconventional for the series! The contrast with the fairytale-like look of the previous game, "Kirby: Triple Deluxe", is especially striking! "I can't wait for you all to jump into the powerful Robobot Armor, take the fight to the evil Haltmann Works Company and experience exhilarating mecha-action in a world overrun by machines! "As you may have realized, Kirby's first game was released on April 27, 1992 in Japan, which makes him 24 years old. That means next year he'll be celebrating his 25th birthday, and we certainly plan to keep taking the Kirby series to new heights for years to come! "Everyone, the time to go on a mecha-adventure to save a techno-world is NOW! The fate of Planet Robobot is in your hands!" And there you have it. I'll continue to post information about "Kirby: Planet Robobot" for you here, so please stay tuned! |

July 1st, 2016 9:44:00 AM | N/A | Hello! Satoshi Ishida from HAL Laboratory here.
I'm happy to announce that we've decided to hold a question-and-answer event right here in this community! I hope that you're all as excited as I am. RULES: We haven't quite decided when exactly we'll be answering your questions, but we'll make sure to let you know in this community once the date is set. It might take us a little while, so please hold tight! It's not every day that you can have your questions answered by none other than Mr Shinya Kumazaki himself, so I really hope you'll make the most of this opportunity by sending us lots and lots of great questions! |

September 30th, 2016 10:10:00 AM | N/A | Hello there! Satoshi Ishida here, from HAL Laboratory. How did you all like our three-round "Kirby: Planet Robobot Ask-a-thon"? I'd like to think we cleared up a good few questions that some of you had, and that makes me happy!
Now then, on to the next point of business. I wanted to let you know that we're planning to hold a new event here in the Behind the Scenes community - the "Kirby: Planet Robobot Drawing and Screenshot Challenge"! What we'd like to do is ask all of you to show us your original drawings on the theme of Kirby: Planet Robobot, as well as screenshots you took while playing the game, from which we'll highlight our faves. Oops, did I say "we"? What I meant to say was that Mr Kumazaki will - because who better to pick and show off the best works than the game's director himself? On that note, I've got a message for you from Mr Kumazaki. "Hello! This is Shinya Kumazaki, the director of Kirby: Planet Robobot. Whenever I look at all of your Miiverse posts, I can't help but notice all the cute pictures of Kirby, the cool ones of Susie, the ones of King Dedede grinning…not to mention all the screenshots of rarely seen situations! I wanted to make sure that everyone gets a chance to appreciate all of these works as much as I do, so I thought we should hold an event of some sort celebrating your amazing creativity. After judging carefully, I'll give some feedback about the works that I select. This time as well, I'm thinking to leave extensive comments, highlighting what I liked best about the chosen piece, or giving background info about the depicted characters. And to make sure that everyone gets to contribute, not just the confident artists among you, we're also accepting screenshots of cool scenes from the game. With this, I hope everyone will be able to join in on the fun! We'll need some more time to set it up, so why not take your time to think about what kind of piece you might want to submit? We're hoping for many, many strong contributions, so don't let us down!" |
