they are circular objects made of rock that are separated by lightyears.
Something shared with what they would be if they weren't planets.
Their circular shape suggest that they are already at bare minimum objects
600km in diameter
The link doesn't send to anything, quote whatever you got that from. Whatever that's the standard for, this rocks aren't proven to be that and them being in a videogame like Kirby means they can be in whatever size they're made regardless of realism. The series has be 1 to 3 meters long star-looking things like the ones in Halcandra, planets that aren't round, etc.
The celestial bodies in question also have done the process of "
clearing the neighborhood" as there are no notable celestial bodies of comparable size to them in their vicinity.
You can't apply that random term to somewhere where you don't know if it happened. There was no neighborhood to talk about as the camara was moving lightyears at a time, nor a proven star near them for that term to apply, we're only shown those rocks. Overthink this is worst than taking the size things are proven to be.
Judging by this we can safely say that all of the objects given to us
fit the official criteria necessary to be considered a planet and are thus a planet.
Under your wrong bias only, a lot of standards there say that this isn't the case and you use wrong assumptions anyway.
The only other way one can even try to debunk this is the size inconsistency when kirby hits it which is irrelevant since it is a word destroyer meteor and no matter how you twist it, it wouldn't just be a meter in size and it is thus deemed game limitation-induced foolishness.
This is nonsense, there is no structure to what you try to say. The thing can be at whatever size and still destroy the planet in the game, this is the same nonsense minigame where it gets hit back lightyears away. You made up the size inconsistency and how it wouldn't just be a meter in size.
Another one is the fact that the UFO at the end tanks the meteor, however, considering we're in a world where a giant planet-sized space ship can just casually land on your planet and mechanize it in seconds, it isn't much of a problem for a spaceship to be that large and survive such a meteor.
A clearly biased take that can't see how it's far, far more likely that the meteor already proven to be smaller is the one smaller, not the UFO bigger.
Meteor being the size of kirby in that one cutscene is just a necessary design inaccuracy since they ain't gonna 3d model a 9000km meteor.
Headcanon.
We can prove its a world buster because it is literally in the name of the mode. There's town crisis, country crisis and world crisis, suggesting that the meteor endangers the world.
Its power has nothing to do with its size.
-Another reason is the fact that the developers would need to be high on some good kush to make the minigame about shooting a meteor that can endanger a planet and have the planets be 1 meter in size.
the developers are rubbing our faces in the fact that this was a word-endangering meteor that can blast apart planets once hit by kirby.
The meteor endangers the planet Popstar, not those rocks it destroys, it is not a "everything it touches is a planet" meteor. You already assume they are planets while trying to argue they're planets.
-Yet another reason is the fact that if the planets are actually only 1-2 meters in diameter then Kirby would have to be so precise that he can strike through multiple 1-2 meter sized space objects that are located hundreds of lightyears away from each other in a row, which is the dumbest idea anyone could ever suggest.
If we go by your logic, kirby shot a massively FTL boulder so hard and precise it was able to hit 10 1-2 meter sized boulders floating in space which are lightyears apart and are conveniently spherical with no reason whatsoever.
Space is around 99.9% empty, it's not smart to think Kirby doing that is dumb but doing it on planet-sized targets isn't & hold that as a reason for this.
Thanks. Would the meteors coming from Planet Popstar be worth calc'ing? Maybe they reach being FTL.
