Katamari Forever

To do:
Try to spawn the unused items using cheats.

Katamari Forever is the fifth main title in the Katamari series. This time, the King falls into a coma after hitting his head, so the Cousins make a Gundam King. Surely, Bandai had no influence on this decision.

Unused Planets#

Object	ID	Filename	Description	Notes
**Satellite	7721	CAMP_M_ETERNAL	This Cheerful star has a festival every day commemorating something.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Camp" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Planet	7724	COW_A_ETERNAL	A planet inhabited by every species of bull and bear imaginable.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Cows and Bears" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Planet	7727	GETLIMIT_A_ETERNAL	With no laws, the people on this planet do as they please.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Limited to 50" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Sirius	7730	HOTARU_A_ETERNAL	A blazingly bright first-magnitude star. All that light gives it even more polish.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Fireflies" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Satellite	7733	JUSTSIZE_A_ETERNAL	This star always sticks with another one, but because it's always on the move We've got no clue which one it's with now.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Just Right - Small" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Satellite	7736	JUSTSIZE_B_ETERNAL	This star full of liars is a real pain in the asteroid.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Just Right - Medium" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Saturn	7739	CAR_MAIN_ETERNAL	A planet that stays mysteriously warm, even though it's quite a distance from the sun.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Just Right - Large" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Planet	7748	ROOM_A_ETERNAL	It's got everything necessary to support life, but it's so ordinary, no one wants to live here.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Clean Up" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Satellite	7751	SCHOOL_B_ETERNAL	This brand-spanking new star is hot off the presses.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "School" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Snowman Planet	7758	JOINA3_MAIN_ETERNAL	It's cute to look at, but We feel bad for anybody living on a planet this icy cold.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Snowman" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Planet	7761	SUMO_C_ETERNAL	We're glad eating all that food helped it get big, but We hear it actually has trouble moving now.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Sumo" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Planet	7764	SWEET_A_ETERNAL	The soil here is sweet, which makes it the perfect home for ants.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Gingerbread House" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.
**Mars	7782	HOT_MAIN_ETERNAL	It's gotten so hot here lately, the octopus-like residents are hiding out underground.	This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Hot Stuff" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.

This planet would've been created by completing the Classic mode for the "Farewell!" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.

This planet would've been created by completing the Eternal mode for the "Co-Op - In The World" stage, however the stage lacks this mode in the final game.

Unused Cousin Items#

Space Helmets#

In We Love Katamari and Beautiful Katamari, the player cousin would wear a space helmet when going into the respective game's space zone. Beautiful Katamari's space zone returns in this game, but for unknown reasons, the helmets were removed. However, all 56 previously made helmets, as well as two new ones for Drive and Dangle, exist in the game's files, stored alongside the presents. The reason they went unused is unknown, and it's possible it may have not been intentional.
