I posted this question earlier to Meta Naito, but we were unable to make much headway.
Now I ask you folks. How old is Kirby in the main series canon of games? (not the anime or the manga)
Can you point to any knowledge or lore that might give us an answer to this question?

This is a pretty interesting question. My personal headcanon for this is that it takes Puffballs--the name I call Kirby's species--a few thousand years to mature. Since Kirby, generally speaking, seems to act as if he is about a year or two old in human years, my headcanon for Kirby's age is that he is a few hundred years old.

Indeed, seems all we have is conjecture and headcanons.
I wonder if there's a blurb anywhere in a game manual, particularly a Japanese one, that might help us unravel this mystery.

Poyos are ancient beings.
What is a Poyo? Kirby is a Poyo. He's the ancestor of all Poyos.

(just in black) In my headcanon he can actually inhale when he doesn't wear a mask. He just never does it, because he is better with the sword.

I would assume that Meta Knight is older than Kirby, probably sent with him to make sure Kirby doesn't get in trouble. (though he's not very good at that) Unfortunately for the Halcandrans, the only person they could find to look after Kirby was a LARPer.

I often view Meta Knight as Kirby's mentor.
