Has great controls, nice gameplay, memorial music and sounds from various Kirby games, and offers a lot of multiplayer content. The few problems with this game is that it would have been better with an online component to make the multiplayer more accessible and it's more easy to breeze if anyone played the first one. I bought this game because I always wanted to own Kirby Super Star in some way, but was unable to since my SNES is dying out. So unless you own the first one, this is a must buy for DS lovers (and Kirby fans if you like it that well).
This is a clasic game! just like old game boy game! but better gamplay and grafics! The levels are great and you wount find one like thisSeptember 22, 2008 - More than a decade ago, back during the transition between the Super NES and the Nintendo 64, Nintendo and HAL Laboratories released Kirby Super Star for the 16-bit gaming console. That generation gap was a big one, as Kirby fell into that hole and got lost; oh, sure, Kirby fans ate it up and it's a good bet that it sold significantly better than any third-party game on the market at the time. But let's face it: the gaming world was on the move in 1996 with new consoles and updated graphic techniques (Donkey Kong Country, anyone?), so Kirby's end-of-generation Super NES adventure seemed to hit the scene with very little fanfare or impact, regardless of its gameplay quality. Nintendo thought there was enough there to give the design a second chance: Kirby's Super Star Ultra for the Nintendo DS is pretty much a remake of the Super NES title, but don't call it a port. And because it's one of the lesser played Kirby games it'll probably feel fresh to you. If you were 16-bit gaming back in 1996 it'll probably make you wish you didn't miss the original design the first time around. Just make it all right again by noticing it in its second coming. If you've ever played a Kirby game, you'll know that the whole idea of a "traditional platformer" is thrown right out the window. Though there are certainly elements of a traditional platformer in Kirby adventures, the fact that Kirby breaks from the usual run-n-jump elements with his float-n-fly abilities changes things up quite a bit, as does his ability to suck up enemies and steal their special attacks for his own benefit. Kirby Super Star Ultra brings a lot of cool ideas to the table, some of which have been abandoned in future Kirby games in favor of streamlining and simplifying his appeal. The ability to bring an enemy in as a "friend" and have him computer controlled opens up a lot of great co-op elements including special two-character attacks. This two player mode has been carried over really well on the Nintendo DS: if you've got a second system and second copy of the game you can have your own view of the action. Without a copy of the game you can sync up your system and use it as a D-pad while looking over your buddy's shoulder.Read full review
As part of the release craze of yesterdecade, this version of Super star has been updated for the DS, It makes good use of the system it was put on and is a quality game in its own right, with many small additions to make it worth picking up the newer copy .

I got this game because I used to have a Kirby game on my old old Gameboy. So I decided I'd give Kirby a shot on my Nintendo DS. At first, it was difficult to learn which buttons did what, but once I got the hang of it, I loved the game. It keeps me entertained, it is not really hard at times, but it is not the easiest game either. The mini games on it can keep my brothers and I entertained for awhile (multi-player). The one thing I do not like about it is that to play multiplayer on the main game, the other player has to look at the DS with game card's screen to control their player. You do not have to do that with the 3 mini games though.
Itssa Kirby game, in fact -- one of the best. A remastered collection of some of the best Kirby content with a bunch of new stuffs. What's there not to love?? :DD
