Kirby Superstar is my second favorite Kirby game ever. It features a whole bunch of new adventures (It even includes a re-make of the Game Boy version) ranging from mario style platformers to games of skill. Here (to the left) you can see every option made available sooner or latter. Theres the Gameboy Re-make, Dyna Blade, Kirby Vs. King Dedede, Treasure Hunter, Megaton Punch and what I am going to call Samurai Showdown because i can't read japanesse. There are two secret modes which you get by completing certain requirements (if you are too lazy then click here, sheesh!).

Dyna Blade Level Select
The Game Boy Re-make looks even better in colour! It's just as you remembered it, except with a few changes.

The Dyna Blade (left) game is something new. It's like mario a bit, where you have to get from left to right. You can use a helper (2nd player or CPU) by swallowing a powerand then hitting the re-call button. Kirby is trying to get to the top of this mountain so he can kick this featherd birds butt! Lot's of fun!

Kirby Vs. King Dedede is a racing like game. The object is to be the first one to cross the finishline (I know you are saying "well duh!" but here me out!) but this time, there's a few things to look out for. Number one being food. Im not sure what this stuff does, but its important. Make sure you past the finishline with lots of food. Secondly is paths. Different levels (3 in total) have different paths, experiment to find the shortest one for you. Sorta fun but gets borring quickly. Lacks 2 player split screen action.

Treasure Hunter is by a longshot the best game that comes with Kirby Superstar. The object is to scour this HUGE level in search for all the treasure. Man camios are present! Lots of Zelda, Mario and Metroid camios in this game. Triforce, fireball, super missiles (i think), you name it! It's really amusing finding all these things while knowing that its not even a Nintendo game!

Megaton Punch is a game of timing. The better the timing, the stronger the punch! Three sets of timing, one is a standard bar that goes up and down, two is a pair of crosshairs that you wanna get when they are aligned and three is a pendulum which you got to get when its in the middle. Two player compatability makes this a fun game!

And the last of the none secret ones is Samurai Showdown (Bottom)! Sorta like Megaton Punch except that you got to be the first person to hit the button after the "!" appears. Really challenging on level 3.

Wow, a truly amazing game by Hal! I have to rate this game pretty higly, as in 9.3 on the Emula Zone scale. If you have ever played a Kirby game or ever wanted to play a Kirby game, I advise you to check it out immediately! Go to www.freeroms.com right now if you want. The pink fluff is back and with attitude!

King Dedede must DIE!
