Games

Kirby & The Amazing Mirror

Chip is a simplistic enemy in behavior, simply hopping about and serving as an obstacle for Kirby. Normally, Chip will hop only within a confined radius; on occasion, however, it will charge itself up and leap across a great distance.

Similar to Waddle Dees, Chip just bounces around aimlessly and typically won't go out of its way to pursue Kirby. However, like other enemies, it can still get in Kirby's way and become a nuisance.

Kirby: Squeak Squad

Chip behaves like it does in Kirby & The Amazing Mirror; however, they're not restricted to hopping solely in Kirby's direction, as they now can hop anywhere in the area.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe

Chip has a behaviour similar to how it did in Kirby: Squeak Squad. When it falls from a height, its body appears to extend or droop, similar to a raindrop falling from the sky. Its eyes are slightly larger. It can also hop between backdrop and foreground areas.

Kirby: Planet Robobot

Chip behaves just like it did in Kirby: Triple Deluxe.

Kirby's Blowout Blast

Chip behaves like it does in Kirby: Triple Deluxe and Kirby: Planet Robobot. Like most enemies in the game, scaled-up versions of it appear that can be Inhaled for a Blaster Bullet.

Kirby Star Allies

Chip appears in Kirby Star Allies and acts the same as in previous games.

Trivia

  • Chip resembles the shape of a chocolate chip, which could very well be its namesake. However, chip (chippu) in Japanese means "tip", which may reference its pointy shape in general.
  • When possessed by Ghost Kirby, holding B will cause Chip to perform a high jump.
