Pondering...

Woah, where'd you get the Rayquaza -> Pokemon, reference?

Anywayyy... The Tabuu fight reminds me of the fight against Marx in Kirby. The music sort of sounds like it, too... In fact, every Kirby character had the biggest roles in Subspace. Kirby defeated Petey Piranha, saved the princesses (among other trophies) and destroyed the Subspace Gun. Metaknight... Well, he had the Halberd. And King Dedede saved everyone with his Timed Badges.

Sakurai is giving too much love to his own creations, imo.

Makes you wonder why Kirby didn't appear with the other big three on the melee cover.  It's just Bowser, Link, Mario, and Pikachu.
