PrinceWatercress plays Kirby Super Star - Part 1 of 14


It's eight games in one! Never mind that they're all short! It's eight games in one!


Well, we have a few games: Spring Breeze, Gourmet Race, Dynablade, The Great Cave Offensive, Megaton Punch and Samurai Kirby. The last two are mini-games. Milky Way Wishes and Revenge of Meta Knight have to be unlocked by playing through certain games.

Spring Breeze is the easiest one, so let's play that one first.

Spring Breeze

HELP! All the food from Dream Land has been stolen! Hurry, Kirby, or everyone will starve.

If you press X, you can get the demo. The story is exactly the same .

When you start the game, you'll be told if this is your first time playing. If you select "Yes," you'll get a brief tutorial. The Control Pad lets Kirby move left and right, and Up lets you open doors. B lets you jump, and pressing B again while in mid-air lets you float. You'll spit the air pellet out automatically when you land. Y lets you inhale enemies and star blocks and spit them back out at other enemies.

Food restores energy, so be sure to take it if you need it.

Once you get through the tutorial, jump into the warp star to start the game.

Stage 1: Green Greens

The stage layout is much like in Kirby's Dream Land, as will all the stages. You'll have a more variable energy bar, and the first door in the game features a Sir Kibble as well as a Maxim Tomato. By swallowing an enemy with A or Down after inhaling it and getting an ability - assuming the enemy has one - you can pause the game and get all the commands. I will list all the command lists throughout the guide.

Just like in Kirby's Dream Land, you'll face Poppy Bros. Sr., who will jump and move around while throwing bombs, as well as use a dash attack. If you don't have an ability, inhale the bombs and send them back at him.

The third section is the climb up the tree. The Kirby icon is a 1-Up.

The boss here is Whispy Woods. If you don't have an ability, just spit the apples that come down at Whispy Woods, and avoid Whispy's air pellets. Collect the star after the boss battle to continue to the next stage.

Stage 2: Float Islands

What can I say? You'll be in the water dealing with fish and exploding nuts and you'll also be going through a cave in the middle of the level. After the cave part, you'll be facing Chilly, who creates ice cubes you can swallow and send back at him, before flying to Castle Lolo, where you will face Lolo and Lala. Swallow the emerald blocks and spit them back out at Lolo and Lala to beat them and get the second star.

Stage 3: Bubbly Clouds

Here, you'll meet some new enemies, such as Shotzo, a cannon that shoots at you, and Scarfy, who will chase after you and explode if you spit an air pellet at them. It will eventually be night time, and the trick of pressing Up at the moon at the top of the final area before the boss still works. If you do that, you'll get a hidden room where you can face Bonkers, spit his nuts and stars back at him and eventually swallow for the Hammer ability.

The flowers will grab you if they hit you with their heads and drain a little bit of your health.

You'll face Kracko midway through the level, he produces Waddle Dees and bombs you can spit back at him. Just make sure to stay away from him whenever he moves.

On the rematch, avoid the thunder and beam attacks as well as Kracko's dives, and send the Waddle Dees back at him. It'll take a little patience, but he is beatable.

Last Stage: Mt. Dedede

The enemies here can be swallowed for abilities, but you can easily fight Dedede without one. Keep your distance, inhale and spit stars at Dedede when he produces, and don't get inhaled and don't get hit with the hammer. You can easily beat Dedede with two Hammer Flips from the Hammer ability if you can get in close and quickly destroy him.

Once you beat Dedede, everybody gets their food back! See you next game!
