*Kirby's dark blue alternate costume in ''SSB4'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'' is intended to resemble Meta Knight without his mask and other regalia, giving Kirby dark purple skin, purple feet, and entirely yellow eyes while also removing his cheek blush.

**Prior to this costume, Meta Knight was actually depicted as having silver eyes behind his mask and pink cheeks. The mask, in particular, turned Meta Knight's eyes yellow while it was worn, and this trait was further reinforced in ''Brawl'' when Kirby, upon copying Meta Knight, sports green eyes while wearing the mask. However, all ''Kirby'' games following ''SSB4'' now depict an unmasked Meta Knight with yellow eyes and a lack of cheek blush. According to the developers of ''Kirby: Planet Robobot'', this was partially a result of palette limitations in sprite-based titles. Although they considered using the pre-''SSB4'' design, they decided that it did not look right on Meta Knight's 3D model.<ref>[[wikirby:Canon#Retroactive continuity|Canon - WiKirby]]</ref>

*In an official poll held on ''[[Smabura-Ken]]'' (the game's official Japanese website) regarding characters for a potential sequel to the first game, Meta Knight placed 19th with 11 votes, tied with the Pokémon [[Lugia]]. Notably, he received less votes than Gooey among characters from the ''Kirby'' games.<ref>https://www.nintendo.co.jp/n01/n64/software/nus_p_nalj/smash/PostResult2.html</ref>
