Kirby Super Stars Ultra .... ^-^


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.
