    Here's a finished Yahoo auction flyer: http://page10.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/m128593795

    So it was known that Hoshi no Kirby was originally to be called Twinkle Popopo, but has there been a prototype version released? The auction was at least of a flyer (which I believe) has never been seen before, but also of the shots of the game in action, strange.

    Then, I quickly stumbled across this link: http://cynthia.cc/blog/index.php?e=59
    So someone here owns a proto, but of course I can't find anything else. Has anyone got anymore information?

    This is the best I can find: http://www.chrismcovell.com/secret/GB__1991Q4.html

    It looks like the title says "Rainkuru", but I guess it's actually "Teinkuru". It's a weird font.

    Do any members specialize in contacting people who speak Japanese?

    Tinkle Popo. Twinkle would probably be ツィンクル.
