The Japanese site for the upcoming Kirby game revealed a lot more information. The most exciting of which is that there is a third new ability called "ESP". (Will probably be renamed "Psychic" in the Western release). No actual details aside from the name are given though.
The site also tells us that Meta Knightmare mode is making a return, which has some Amiibo functionality to it. Additionally, there are stickers that can be found across the game which can be used to customize your robot. (I really hope they are actually visible and not just like a SSBB thing).
Given the current roster of confirmed abilities, here's my amiibo-given ability predictions:
The only ones I'm stuck on are Palutena, Bayonetta, and Rosalina. And Wolf Link, although he'll probably just be treated like normal Link and give Sword.

SpoilerI didn't see anything about an ESP ability or a Meta Knightmare mode (either just by overlooking it or because I don't know Japanese), but I did see the stickers. I assumed that they'd be visible and collectibles like the keychains and figurines, but not necessarily have any other effects.
And I just noticed that Meta Knight has hand guards. Smash aside, I believe this would be the first time he's had them in-game if they have them on his non-cutscene model. That makes me happy.
Also, I'm late in saying this, but I really like your post from last week. That was a good post.
