Pardon the double-post. New trailer. It's actually different this time!
Look at about 1:47. You can see that the three other playable characters (Meta Knight, Triple D, and Waddle Dee) swapped positions on the HUD. This confirms that they are at least swappable for the other players, but I wonder if that means that they can used by player 1 as well?
Other playable Kirbys instead of the three unique characters also confirmed in this video.
Two more what I shall dub "Super Copy Abilities" are revealed. Flare Beam and Monster Fire. Flare Beam's pretty interesting looking. From what I gather, you can control this large orb of energy around the screen, damaging anything on contact. It looks to also be used in some puzzles. Monster Fire summons a fire dragon across the screen, severing that rope like Ultra Sword did.
Overall, the game looks fantastic. I think I can confidently say this will be one of the best Kirby games out there, and maybe even one of the best Wii games.
