Kirby: Triple Deluxe/Unused Text

This is a sub-page of Kirby: Triple Deluxe.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe isn't too crazy about unused text. However, it contains a few interesting strings inside it, and a whole early localization for the Korean version of the game. What a great deal!

This file contains bottom screen information and boss health-bar names.

Entry	Japanese	American English	European English	French	German	Italian	Spanish	Korean
BossNameSectniavine	セクトニア ヴァイン (Sectonia Vine)	Sectonia Vine		Plante Sectonia	Sectonia-Ranke	Queen Sectonia tralcio	Enredadera de Sectonia	세크토니아 바인 (Sectonia Vine)
BossNameSectniaflower	クィン・セクトニア (Queen Sectonia)	Flowered Sectonia	Sectonia's Flower	Fleur de Sectonia	Blumen-Sectonia	Queen Sectonia fiorita	Sectonia Florida	퀸 세크토니아 (Queen Sectonia)

Queen Sectonia has two unused health bar names located in RomFS/msg/(language folder)/GameInfo.msbt. One is for her vines in the 3D Cannon segment in Eternal Dreamland, while the other is for her form while fused with the Dreamstalk. While "Sectonia Vine" can be seen in a pause menu header as "VS Sectonia Vine", this boss health bar name is not used in any capacity. These names are localized into all supported languages.

Notably, the official Japanese player's guide uses the name "Sectonia Flowered" (セクトニアフラワード) to refer to Sectonia's Dreamstalk-fused flower minions. This name is not seen in-game, even in the internal files, but it is likely that this is what the localized names are based upon.

It's Kirby! This entry must've been for Kirby's health-bar name when in his normal state. The final game instead uses the entry AbilityNormal.
