Initially released in 2014 for the 3DS, Kirby: Triple Deluxe is a 2.5D platformer and the tenth game in the main Kirby series. The game used the 3DS features, introducing a game mechanic that allows Kirby and friends switch between and explore limited 3-D planes in the foreground to the background.
The post quickly gained a large amount of traction from the Kirby fanbase with many fans quote-tweeting their excitement, and wondering if this is pointing to a possible remake in the future.
NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY

That said, other fans are far more cynical. While many agreed that Kirby: Triple Deluxe on the Switch would be amazing, the trademark post likely doesn’t symbolize that. Since trademark renewals are common, this situation could be nothing. So while this might be exciting, it’s important for fans to not get their hopes up.
We have seen a lot of people talking about Kirby Triple Deluxe this morning as the game’s trademark was renewed (seen below). While we are keeping an eye on things, please note that this does not mean a Nintendo Switch port is coming. Trademark renewals happen very often! pic.twitter.com/4RnyMG10Qp
