Kirby Super Star revives him in 16-bit glory. The main story is Spring Breeze, but many others unfold, each harder than the other. The final game, Milky Way Wishes, makes it seem that nothing could be harder, until you beat it---The Arena opens up! This game is full of surprises, and gamers young and old will keep discovering long after completing The Arena. II. Kirby Kirby is a pink, round creature named after the vacuum cleaner because of what he does---he inhales enemies and swallows them to gain their abilities! He can inhale air and puff up his cheeks to fly. Kirby's enemies are still his enemies even on the SNES, but Kirby has some new powers to make up for his stronger, 16-bit enemies. III. Kirby's Powers Kirby's powers consist of abilities gained from enemies by inhaling and swallowing them. Kirby's natural powers are: Inhale: hold Y Slide: Down + B Jump: B Swallow/Sit/Duck: Down Swallow/Create Helper/Destroy Helper: A Run: Right or Left twice quickly Fly: B twice Block: L-pad or R-pad (on top of controller) i. Use-Forever Powers These powers can be used until Kirby changes powers or an enemy knocks it out of him. Kirby can also create something that looks like an enemy but owes allegiance to Kirby--- a helper! Helpers look exactly like enemies except for colors and will follow Kirby around, helping him wreak havoc on the evildoers of Dream Land. If you are fighting a boss, helpers are a must, unless it is supposed to look heroic (Marx, Meta Knight). Also, if you ever come upon a transform symbol (explained later) you should create a helper. They do just as their name implies. Kirby's powers are: \-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/ | Name of Power | Enemy That Uses Power | Strength | |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Beam | Waddle Doo | * | | Bomb | Poppy Bros.

Powers Guide This is a handy guide to all the powers to see which ability is best for you. Power Enemy/Helper Name Strength G/B ************************************************************************************* Beam Waddle Doo * B 75% G 25% The BEAM is just about the weakest power in the game. With one star and a pathetic G/B rating, BEAM is the 2nd worst power in the game. The sad part of this is that Waddle Doo is one of the smartest helpers, but he gets stuck with a body that can't take two hits and a weapon that couldn't melt butter. ************************************************************************************* Bomb Poppy Bros. Jr. ***** G 95% B 5% This weapon is one of the most powerful in the game. I would definitely suggest getting rid of your other weapon if you get a chance to take this gem of an ability. ************************************************************************************* Cook Cook Kawasaki ****** G 100% B 0% This is the most powerful ability in the game. Unfortunately, it is only a one-shot, but can still work quite well. The COOK ability puts all enemies on-screen into a big pot, and Kirby cooks them to make food. The amount of food depends on how many enemies are put in. 1 enemy = 1 food item. ************************************************************************************* Copy TAC Varies G 90% B 10% This ability has a variable strength level because the COPY ability copies the ability of the enemy you use it on. If you press Y while facing a Wheelie, you will get the WHEEL power. Strangely enough, if you try to copy a non-power enemy, the enemy will be destroyed. Hmm. ************************************************************************************* Crush Bomb ***** G 99% B 1% This ability will cause a major explosion that will kill all enemies on-screen. It is very fun to watch. ************************************************************************************* Cutter Sir Kibble,Poppy Bros.Ctr*** G 75% B 25% The CUTTER ability is an average power that lets you throw boomerang-like knives. There is nothing special about this ability, except the combo move. The combo move is arguably the best reason to use CUTTER. ************************************************************************************* Fighter Knuckles Joe **** G 80% B 20% This ability is one of the best. Toss your enemies to infinity with the Tomoe Throw and overwhelm them with a Vulcan Jab. The only downside is that you have to use the power a few times to gain the experience necessary to do the good moves. I definitely recommend getting this power unless you have a higher-rated power or the power you have is one you like more. ************************************************************************************* Fire Burnin' Leo *** G 70% B 30% This ability lets Kirby breathe fire, burning all enemies in range. Personally, I don't think this ability is such hot stuff, but that may be just me. ************************************************************************************* Hammer Bonkers **** G 85% B 15% This power is one of my favorites. Wield the mighty HAMMER, smashing enemies into oblivion! If you don't want to use the HAMMER anymore, dash and press A while facing an enemy. He'll go down with a SMASH!! ************************************************************************************* Ice Chilly *** G 60% B 40% This power is not so cool as some people make it out to be. In my opinion, anyone who thinks this power is his favorite is a bag of wind. My favorite power for this ability is dash + Y. ************************************************************************************* Jet Capsule J ** G 50% B 50% I put this ability in the same league as BEAM. Your only attack is staying vulnerable while waiting for the stupid thing to charge. There is a special spot in Skyhigh that you use it in, however. Basically, don't get this ability. ************************************************************************************* Mike Mike **** G 95% B 5% This ability causes Kirby's rather screechy voice to be amplified, destroying all enemies on-screen. Don't hock a good power just because of this one, though. ************************************************************************************* Mirror Simirror *** G 80% B 20% This ability lets Kirby practice the ancient art of double sorcery. If you have a lousy ability like JET and you come upon a Simirror, I think it would be an acceptable enemy to swallow. Otherwise, though, leave this one for the great Alakazamo. ************************************************************************************* Ninja Bio Spark ***1/2 G 70% B 30% This ability is good, but it is very lacking in strong attacks. All you can do to attack is throw little knives that do very little damage, or do a _very_ short-range knife slash which makes you vulnerable while barely scratching your enemy. This power is acceptable to take if you have something lousy like WHEEL or JET, but otherwise pass this up. ************************************************************************************* Paint ChameleoBall,LobsterBlob ***** G 100% B 0% This ability will cause Kirby to hold up a large paintbrush, spraying all enemies on- screen with a dose of paint, and the clashes of Kirby's less-than-tasteful decor will surely cause the enemies to scream and disappear. Use this ability whenever possible--- it's a splash (of paint, that is!)! ************************************************************************************* Parasol Parasol W. Dee *** G 75% B 25% This ability is gained by eating a Waddle Dee holding a PARASOL. I think this is a very good ability, but it's nothing to rave about. ************************************************************************************* Plasma Plasma Wisp **** G 80% B 20% I like this ability because of its awesome power, but it can be tedious to have to run back and forth long enough to get a powerful shot. Unless you're in Spring Breeze or somesuch, it would probably be a better idea to make a helper out of this ability and take something like SWORD. ************************************************************************************* Sleep Sleepy None B 100% G 0% This power doesn't even deserve to be called a power. It puts Kirby to sleep for about 5 seconds, making him very vulnerable and stealing his power as well. There is no reason whatsoever why you would want this power. Avoid at all costs. ************************************************************************************* Stone Rocky *** G 65% B 35% This power is so-so. It's powerful, except the enemies usually aren't polite enough to wait around while you position yourself over them. STONE can be useful for invulnerability, but otherwise is pretty useless. Use it in RPG battles. ************************************************************************************* Suplex Buggzy, Butterfingers **** G 80% B 20% I like this power. It's cool and powerful. However, it takes some practice to learn the moves, and it's rare: the only ways to get it are defeating Buggzy or Butterfingers- both mini-bosses--or possibly from an item square. Good if you have experience. ************************************************************************************* Sword Blade Knight ***** G 90% B 10% This is my favorite power. It's very powerful, and is useful for many of the bosses and mini-bosses. Dyna Blade, Meta Knight, and Fatty Whale are all beaten easiest with SWORD. The only downside is that there is no long-range attack. ************************************************************************************* Trolley --- Invincible G 90% B 10% What can I say? The TROLLEY is not really a power. Whenever you jump into a mine cart, your power switches to TROLLEY. When you jump out, it reverts to its previous state. The TROLLEY is invincible. A downside is that you cannot move while inside the TROLLEY; you have to wait until your wild ride is over. The TROLLEY can pound down posts, as can HAMMER. ************************************************************************************* Wheel Wheelie *** G 60% B 40% This really isn't a very good power. It doesn't have a very good attack--all it can do is zoom into an enemy and hope for the best. Unless you have a power with a lower G/B rating, you better avoid this. ************************************************************************************* Wing Birdon *** G 75% B 25% Though it isn't very powerful, I like WING. The attacks are fair, and it even improves your flying skills. I especially like how you can knock an enemy up into the air and then destroy it. I suggest using WING in a lava area, or if you're going through an area with lots of minor monsters, like Spring Breeze. ************************************************************************************* Yoyo Gim ***** G 85% B 15% I really like this power. It's powerful and can go through walls. Also, it has very good range: while not being too long-range, you're just out of range of enemy attacks while whipping them to death with your custom-made red yoyo. This power isn't perfect, however. First, there is a lack of good combos. Second, the special moves are weak. I mean, what kind of demented person designed the Gazer Spiral? This power is good for going through monster-infested areas (especially if Crocodiles are involved), but for the bosses, I'd stick with something like CUTTER. ************************************************************************************* iv. Items Kirby's items are very important. If not for the various items of food scattered around Dream Land, Kirby would surely succumb to enemies' constant attacks. The items are: \-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------/ | Item | Where Found | Effect(stars are healing) | |-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Tomato | Enemies, Rooms | *** | | Sponge Cake | "" | *** | | Sunflower | "" | *** | | Chicken | "" | *** | | Bananas | "" | *** | | Cherries | "" | *** | | Hot Dog | "" | *** | | Food Item*1 | "" | *** | | Maxim Tomato | Rooms | *Full | | Lollipop | Rooms | Invincibility | | 1UP | Rooms | Extra Life | /-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\ III. The Enemies i. Power Enemies These enemies give a power when inhaled. They consist of use-forever power enemies and one-shot enemies. CAPITAL letters indicate a power. ************************************************************************************* Waddle Doo Waddle Doo is Waddle Dee's brother. He is equipped with the BEAM and knows what he's doing, so don't get careless. ************************************************************************************* Poppy Bros. Jr. Poppy Bros. Jr. hops around. He possesses the BOMB and can do serious damage, so don't leave him hopping around. ************************************************************************************* Crazed Donut Hole Bomber This enemy's middle resembles a donut when he tosses bombs. He is a major annoyance because he has the nasty habit of laying bombs by ladders, hurting Kirby when you get to the top. Also, he can fire a 5-bomb spread that will severely impair Kirby's efforts to save Dream Land (and himself). Try to sneak up on him and kill him in one hit. ************************************************************************************* TAC Major threat!!! This guy runs around quite quickly, jumping up in the air to extend his grabber and steal your power. If you destroy him afterwards, you will regain your power, but this is usually hard due to the fact you no longer have your power. Inhaling him will give you the COPY power. ************************************************************************************* Sir Kibble Very annoying. KILL IMMEDIATELY!!! Sir Kibble will throw cutters at you both horizontally and diagonally. The sharp cutters slice into Kirby's soft skin, causing major damage. He possesses the CUTTER ability. (NOTE: If you have the FIGHTER or SUPLEX ability, you can pick up and throw the cutters just as if they were an enemy.) ************************************************************************************* Poppy Bros. Cutter This enemy looks like a Poppy Brother with a boomerang under one arm. Inhale it for the CUTTER. ************************************************************************************* Knuckle Joe I usually don't leave him around long enough to assess, but he is very powerful when using a "Vulcan Jab". He has the FIGHTER ability. ************************************************************************************* Burnin' Leo Kill immediately. No mercy. The fireballs he spits out can kill you with three shots, and prepare to stay awhile if you get caught in the flames he's blowing. He has the FIRE ability. ************************************************************************************* Chilly Not particularly harmful, but getting caught in his ice storm is not fun if you are trying to shave time. Has the ICE power. ************************************************************************************* Capsule J This guy is a major nuisance and danger so don't leave him flying around. I have had my helper decimated more than once during REVENGE of META NIGHT due to this flying pasta machine. He possesses the JET ability. ************************************************************************************* Simirror This wizard waves a little wand and reflects EVERY attack Kirby uses, so the point is to hit him with his guard down. Also, after you hit him, he may try to fade out and reappear behind you. Be aware of this trick and never believe an enemy is dead until you see the small explosion of stars. He has the MIRROR ability. ************************************************************************************* Bio Spark This guy is both weak and strong. His 3-knife attack is weak, but don't stand near him when he goes into his slashing frenzy. That killed me when I had half life. Low-energy players should use FIGHTER or somesuch to escape his jump-and-smash-on-the-floor attack. He uses the NINJA ability. ************************************************************************************* Parasol W. Dee This guy is as carefree as Waddle Dee himself! Just inhale and swallow or attack with whatever weapon you have and he will be long gone. He has the PARASOL ability. ************************************************************************************* Plasma Wisp Try not to let him build up his plasma ball attack and he will die like a TV going off. He has the PLASMA ability. ************************************************************************************* Rocky Takes multiple hits, but you will eventually get him. His power is STONE. ************************************************************************************* Blade Knight In my opinion, the smartest of the enemies. He also deals high damage. He has my favorite ability---SWORD! ************************************************************************************* Wheelie Very weak. Just kill it. Has WHEEL power. ************************************************************************************* Birdon Same as Wheelie. Has WING power. ************************************************************************************* Gim This guy can be annoying if you get caught in the path of his yoyo. His ability is YOYO. ************************************************************************************* Bomb This guy will explode if left alone. However, if you want to experience the most destructive power in the game, swallow him and try his CRUSH power. ************************************************************************************* Mike He looks like a little microphone and spits out screechy musical notes. Try his MIKE power to give all enemies on-screen a taste of Kirby's lacking singing voice. ************************************************************************************* Chameleo Ball Chameleo Arm spits this out. Swallow it and use the PAINT ability, my favorite of all the one-shots. ************************************************************************************* Lobster Blob Heavy Lobster's claw will produce this orange blob only once. Use the PAINT ability it gives you to turn him red! ************************************************************************************* Sleepy Sits around and sleeps. If you swallow him you sleep for about 5 seconds. The ability is called (big surprise) SLEEP. ************************************************************************************* ii. Non-Power Enemies These enemies will not give a power when inhaled; they are just there to hurt Kirby. ************************************************************************************* Stampedin' Fatty Deer This guy takes multiple hits to destroy and stampedes when hit. No big threat. ************************************************************************************* Waddle Dee This guy looks just like Waddle Doo except for color, and is completely helpless. ************************************************************************************* Shooting Color Wheel This round enemy either shoots one big ball of color, 3 medium-sized ones, or about 20 small balls machine-gun style. ************************************************************************************* Winged Boppy This little guy flies in a wavy pattern and looks like a ball with eyes and wings. ************************************************************************************* Cannon This enemy is invincible and fires nasty cannonballs. Just avoid it. ************************************************************************************* Spike This enemy is also invincible and will cause major damage. ************************************************************************************* Chickie & Hennie These two look like a chick and a hen. They hide quietly until approached, at which point they will fly into the face of their attacker, mostly Kirby. ************************************************************************************* Mushroom This strange creature dances around and throws its cap in the air. SEE Wood Spirit. ************************************************************************************* Wood Spirit This is the creature that hides under the mushroom. If destroyed while its cap is still in the air, the mushroom cap will land harmlessly on the ground. ************************************************************************************* Poppy Cousin Like the Poppy Bros., but he doesn't carry a weapon. ************************************************************************************* Broom Sweeper This enemy aimlessly sweeps the floors. It only damages you if it bumps into you. ************************************************************************************* Spinning Head This enemy is simply a spinning yellow head. Some of them disappear and reappear. ************************************************************************************* Flying Bunnies These enemies have long ears and fly. When you turn your back they become teeth- gnashing monsters. Destroy or they can knock you around quite a bit. ************************************************************************************* Flowers These flowers look all happy and friendly---until they roll into a cone and try to get Kirby! These flowers can easily take away 1/4 energy with their shaking attack, so kill them or run away before they have a chance to try to kill Kirby. ************************************************************************************* Cutter Yes, it is possible to inhale a cutter! Look to the description of Sir Kibble to find out how to deal with them. ************************************************************************************* Fish There are only 3 enemies that can go underwater and live, and this is one of them! The fish is no threat due to Kirby's water gun. ************************************************************************************* Octopus This is another of the underwater enemies. Also no big threat. ************************************************************************************* Anemone This amphibian plant spits out nasty stars that can hurt Kirby. Just shoot it with the water gun. ************************************************************************************* Mini Star Thrower This guy can climb anywhere and tosses stars at you. Just kill him quickly and he'll be no trouble. ************************************************************************************* Laser Sentry Found only on the Halberd, these annoying sentries fire lasers that home in on your position, so even if you cannot be hit directly, the laser will get you. ************************************************************************************* Crocodile This enemy likes to catch Kirby with its razor-sharp teeth then chomp him to bits. Try to take defensive measures before you get bitten. If you have 1/3 life or less, you MUST avoid this enemy. His attack will kill you if you have 1/3 life or less. ************************************************************************************* iii. Mini-Bosses These bosses have an energy meter just like Kirby. They are stronger than normal enemies. ************************************************************************************* Poppy Bros. These are the big Poppies. They toss bombs at you. It is actually easier to defeat them unarmed but I do not recommend it. They have the BOMB power as well. ************************************************************************************* Smasher This big boss throws a mean punch. He has the FIGHTER ability. Smasher is easy to beat as long as you avoid the arms. ************************************************************************************* Kracko Jr. This guy is not grown enough to have a spiky cloud, but can pummel you with his low sweeps just the same. Jump over his body slams and strike when he is in the upper-right corner of the screen. ************************************************************************************* Bonkers This Mini-Boss has the HAMMER power and knows how to use it. His hammer swipes are dangerous, but all his bombs are meant to do is to stun you. HINT: Some of the Bonkers chambers have weak floors. Unless you want to collect the HAMMER ability, destroy these floors to dig Bonkers an early grave. ************************************************************************************* Frosty This oversized walrus wants to freeze you solid. His attacks consist of kicking an ice cube at you and inhaling you to spit you out. Dodge his nasty intentions and hit him with a barrage of weapons fire. Inhale him for the ICE ability. ************************************************************************************* Bugzzy This mantis possesses the SUPLEX power and intends to slam you against the ground until the cows come home. He will also hover above you and drop on you and fire ladybugs. Go at him hammer-and-tongs and get his power. ************************************************************************************* Butterfingers This enemy is anything but his name. With the SUPLEX ability, he will reach out and slam you into the ground if he can get his clutches close enough. Just hit and run. ************************************************************************************* Halberd Crew These guys just rush at you, hover above you, or toss electrocuting prongs at you. They're not very tough and are about medium threat. ************************************************************************************* iv. The Bosses These fiends are the biggest and baddest in the game. There are 13, and you'll definitely need this guide to get through them all. A star by the name of the boss indicates he is the big boss of one of the games. ************************************************************************************* Whispy Woods This boss is the first in the game. Just hack away at him to beat him while dodging the apples. If you prefer, you can spit apples at him, because they do more damage. ************************************************************************************* Lololo & Lalala These two rulers push boxes at you like a moving crew. Linger near a jump point (the place that lets you switch levels) and jump and hit them from behind as they go. If you have a helper (and you really should) just stand on the unused floor and let it fight the battle. Watch out! Occasionally they will push Spikes at you instead of boxes. ************************************************************************************* Kracko This spiky cloud has a three-pronged attack. 1. He will move across the screen in one of three fashions. 2. He will spit out a Waddle Doo and fire a beam. 3. (optional) He will fly to you and hit you with a rain attack OR will go to the edge of the screen and move slowly to the other side while firing a lightning bolt. Simply dodge the attacks and hit him with your weapon. (NOTE: Do not use the BEAM ability against him! Since he uses it himself, it will not do a speck of damage. I've actually had best luck throwing away a power and spitting Waddle Doos at him.) ************************************************************************************* King Dedede* The ringleader of the food theft, King Dedede is the toughest boss in Spring Breeze. If you do not have a power when you confront him you will die. Your best bet is to keep him in a "pain" state. This is the face he puts on when you hit him. If you keep him this way he will be unable to counterattack. ************************************************************************************* Dyna Blade* This bird is no trouble if you go armed with the SWORD ability and a Blade Knight helper. Just block and let the Blade Knight attack until Dyna kills him. At this point it should take about 1 or 2 hits to knock some sense into the giant bird. ************************************************************************************* Fatty Whale Really, this guy is a sorry excuse for a boss. To beat him use SWORD and a Blade Knight helper. After the Blade Knight is gone, bounce on him with the point of your sword down. Just block to avoid the rock attack. You should have the blubber stripped off this whale in no time. ************************************************************************************* Chameleo Arm This boss has a very predictable pattern. First he tries to catch you with his tongue. Then he rolls at you. Next he latches onto the ceiling to throw balls at you that will give you the PAINT ability (try it with him, it turns Chameleo a different color every time.). Finally he will extend his claws at you. He may turn invisible at any time during the process---don't worry, he is easy to spot, he makes ripples on the screen where he is. If you know his attacks, it is easy to dodge them, and retaliate without a scratch. ************************************************************************************* RPG Battles These battles have enemies appearing RPG-style with an HP meter as well as energy bar. Just grab the powers that appear on the side of the screen. When it is your turn, whack the enemy as many times as you can. When it's the enemy's turn, block. The only exception to this rule is when fighting the Red Dragon and it is "flapping its wings". Then try to dodge the sharp cutters, or hit them with whatever power you've got (FIRE and ICE work well). ************************************************************************************* Wham Bam Rock* This guy has a weirdo face and a single, sturdy, stone hand. This hand is what you're attacking. It will try to smash you flat, and also, periodically, unleash a falling stone attack. Surprisingly, the STONE ability works well if you can get a hit in. Otherwise use PARASOL. ************************************************************************************* Twin Cannon This cannon is the Halberd's main form of attack, so destroy it! Attacking the laser cannon will not diminish the enemy energy bar, but will take a major load off your shoulders, so if you have a helper I recommend it. Use the YOYO power with a Gim helper and he will usually stay alive long enough to destroy the laser cannon. Then stand as far right as you can (where the laser cannon used to be) and fire the yoyo while holding up. If the cannon is in firing position, the yoyo will hit it and will also protect you from that nasty grabber hand. The only thing to watch out for is the bombs the hand drops. ************************************************************************************* Heavy Lobster This lobster can be cooked quite easily if you know the strategy. First, go into the room with a power you like but no helper. Wait for the lobster to spit out the Lobster Blob that gives you the PAINT ability. Quickly create a helper and inhale the Blob. After PAINTing the lobster, let your helper do the work until its energy is low. Use the Suppin Beam to recall the helper and create it again. Repeat as many times as necessary (except for the PAINT part---the lobster spits out the Lobster Blob only once.). ************************************************************************************* Halberd's Reactor You don't need a power to defeat the Halberd's reactor. Just float in front of the colored diamond and wait for the thing that looks like a power plug to aim at you and fire. Then move out of the way and let the laser hit the reactor. Occasionally the cannon the reactor is equipped with will fire. Never fear, though! Just move to the top of the screen. Also watch out for the fire blasters in the floor. After 3 hits, the reactor will go critical. ************************************************************************************* Meta Knight* The boss of REVENGE OF META KNIGHT, this guy is one of the hardest bosses in the game. To kill him, the most health-efficient way is to create a helper and let it do the dirty work. After that it should be child's play. NOTE: Usually you must use SWORD to beat Meta Knight. However, there is a trick to get around this. Simply create a helper out of the power you want to use. Enter Meta Knight's chamber and take the SWORD. Throw it away, careful not to let it touch your helper. Use the Suppin Beam to make your helper transform into its item symbol. Grab it and you should now have the power of your choice. ************************************************************************************* Heart of Nova This battle is kind of hard. The point is to shoot like mad at each of the targets until they're all dead. My tips are that you can go through the tracks the targets are on without taking damage, and it's best to get as close as you can and then blast away while moving backward. This way the diagonal star shots will hit too. ************************************************************************************* Marx* Wow! The boss of Milky Way Wishes! To beat him, I recommend using YOYO. First, he will fire cutters. To dodge this, stand directly below him. Then he will swoop up and drop seeds that will create spike walls. Stand between them, or cower in the corners. Next he will appear as a flashing circle below you. Run away from this as fast as possible for Marx will spring from it (a good way to dodge is to fly to the top of the screen and fly back-and-forth frantically. Remember that touching his wings won't hurt you). Now he will drop an energy circle that will create a beam on the floor that will freeze you. Jump it. Occasionally he will split apart and create a black hole you definitely don't want to get caught in. Simply block where you are and you'll be fine. When Marx goes to the bottom-right or -left edge of the screen, he is about to fire a laser(go to the top to dodge). If he goes to the edge of the screen at any height other than ground level, he is about to let loose a barrage of arrows. The only thing you can do is dodge these attacks and wait for an opening to use your yoyo. ************************************************************************************* V. The Original Levels These levels are the levels you can select from the beginning. They range from easy to medium-hard. i. Atmospheric Conditions This section contains info on the different things you will encounter on your way. ************************************************************************************* Bomb Block This block will destroy nearby blocks to create many different effects. Hit them unless it says otherwise in the walkthru. ************************************************************************************* Star Block This block can be inhaled and spat out. It is meant to slow you down. Sometimes they hide doors. ************************************************************************************* Warp Star These large stars warp Kirby to a previously inaccessible area. ************************************************************************************* Mine Cart The mine cart is invincible and can also pound down posts. ************************************************************************************* Water Try swimming! Use the water gun as a weapon or: \---------------/ | Hammer | | Parasol | | Sword | /---------------\ ************************************************************************************* Lava Red alert! Lava will seriously damage Kirby if you don't have tip-top flying skills. ************************************************************************************* Cracked Blocks Problems underwater if you don't have an underwater weapon. Otherwise look in the walkthru for information. ************************************************************************************* Indestructible Blocks These blocks must be fired through. Use BEAM or YOYO; they seem to work well. ************************************************************************************* Walls Same as indestructible walls, but usually you can't jump over them. ************************************************************************************* Weak Blocks These blocks break as soon as you stand on them. ************************************************************************************* Doors Doors lead someplace else (duh). Break blocks to find some hidden ones. To enter, press up. ************************************************************************************* Platforms Thin platforms can be dropped through by pressing Down.

Spring Breeze That awful King Dedede is at it again. He's stolen all the food in Dream Land! The inhabitants don't like being hungry and have asked Kirby to help. (AUTHOR'S NOTE: For anyone who has played Kirby games previously, the plot is the same as Kirby's Dream Land for Game Boy.) A. Green Greens The first level In Spring Breeze! When you land, there should be a hill up ahead with a Waddle Doo. Swallow him for the BEAM ability. Now climb over the hill. There should be a Mushroom below you. Take him out and go in the door. Once inside, press A for a Waddle Doo helper, then quickly swallow the Sir Kibble. Don't forget to take the Maxim Tomato on your way out. Go to the right farther and jump on the warp star. It will take you to an area with a Poppy Bros. Sr. Defeat him and move on. After killing a Stampedin' Fatty Deer you will come to a door. Enter it and proceed to avoid enemies. Don't forget there's a 1UP on the left. After entering another door new music will begin to play. You have entered the arena of Whispy Woods! Beat him to move on to Float Islands. B. Float Islands When you land, there should be a Knuckles Joe on the right. If you would prefer to hock your CUTTER power to your helper and swallow the Knuckles Joe, feel free. There will be a body of water on the right. Fly over it and kill the Octopus. Then enter the door. When you enter there will be a big pit on the right. Be sure to collect the food on the left and watch out for the Spinning Heads on the right. Climb up the ladder to the right and kill the Spinning Head. Fall down the next pit and destroy the Spinning Head and the Chilly. When the Spike behind the Star Blocks is at the top, destroy one and run to the door on the right. Collect the Lollipop (don't forget to share it with the helper) and run as fast as you can to the right. If you're quick, you can destroy the Frosty Mini-Boss and hop in the Warp Star. This will land you on a castle. Destroy the Bomb before it explodes and give your ability to your helper. Now swallow the Blade Knight. Voila! You have the SWORD ability! Now enter the final door and beat Lololo & Lalala. C. Bubbly Clouds When you start you will see a cannon below you and to the right and a Blade Knight on the ledge to the right. Give your helper the SWORD power and swallow the Blade Knight to get it back. Go to the right, careful not to press down for this will drop you into a bottomless pit. There is a door to the right along with a Blade Knight, a cannon, and some Flying Bunnies, but don't be overzealous! Go farther right to collect some food. Then enter the door. Here's an enemy we haven't seen before! Simirror is just a pushover, and his power's nothing special, so just wait for a space in his magic guard and destroy him (don't let him pull that disappearing trick, either.). Just jump up to the highest platform and destroy the Sir Kibble for passage through the door. Meet Kracko Jr.! Beat him and use the Warp Star. It will land you in a seemingly exitless area with a Mike enemy---until you notice the wall to the right is made out of Star Blocks! There is both a 1UP and a food item in the block wall. After breaking through, you will see 2 Flowers. Kill them and jump to the top to meet a Poppy Bros. Jr. guarding the door. Once he's gone, go down the pit to the right for a Maxim Tomato. Then enter the door. After killing the chamber guards and jumping to the top, enter the Boss Door. Beat Kracko for the 3rd star. D. Mount Dedede The Warp Star you travel in will put you right in front of the door to the arena. If you like the power you have, enter. Otherwise go to the right for a better selection. I strongly recommend a helper, but again, if you like the power you have, just go it alone. Destroy him to end Spring Breeze and get treated to a mini ending sequence! iii. Dyna Blade A strange bird, named Dyna Blade, has come from the mountain and ruined the crops! Unless Kirby can stop him, Dream Land will be devastated! Level One Drop down to the bottom and enter the door, avoiding the Sir Kibble on your left. Move to the right and swallow the Parasol W. Dee. Watching out for Sir Kibbles and Waddle Doos, move right until you come to a row of Weak Blocks above water. Run across these quickly and watch out for the Parasol W. Dee at the end. Farther right, there are some Weak Blocks stacked on top of each other. Wait to get to the bottom. Grab the food on the left and head right. There is a door before your destination that has a SWORD transform symbol and a Maxim Tomato. I strongly recommend stopping here for a respite. Jump up some platforms and destroy the Spinning Head and Bomb Block. Enter the door this creates. Move right. Jump up to the top of the hill and destroy the Bomb Block. Go right to two Flowers. Destroy them and go father right. Jump up to the top, collecting food along the way, until you get to a Bomb Block. Destroy it and climb up the ladder. Climb up another ladder and fall down the pit to the right. Go left for the Maxim Tomato then right to meet Cook Kawasaki. Defeat him and move into the room on the right to end the level. Level Two Go right, defeating Parasol-wielding enemies until you come to a door. This door will dump you out in a castle. Watch out for the Blade Knight on the right. WARNING: Do not go in the door just past the Blade Knight! This will result in an unnecessary battle. Go right and climb the ladders. Then enter the next door past a Simirror. This will take you to a scrolling area where dwindling results in death. After some walking through the scrolling area, you will come to some Cracked Blocks. Bash a path through to the Warp Star. You will land in another part of the castle. Go right and enter the door. Move right, being cautious of Wheelies, until you get to Bonkers. Kill him and enter the door. When you come through, get the food on the parapets and enter the Boss Door. Level Three There will be a Knuckles Joe to the right of where you start. Kill him and go in the door. Move right, watching out for Spikes, and generally causing havoc. Destroy the Bomb Blocks keeping you from where you want to go and enter the door at the far right. This room is very windy. Go right and be careful not to go too fast for there are pits and spikes making anyone ground-bound in danger. After a long trek you will see a door at right. Go in; grab the STONE power from one of the resident Rockys, and coast down the hill in invincible form. When you can go no further, change back to Kirby and fly through the lava room below. Then enter the door. This area is icy. Move right past the Chillys and go down the ladder. Ride the Coasters until you come to a ladder. Climb it and hop in the Warp Star. When you land, you will be in an outdoors area. Move right until you come to a Bugzzy. Defeat it and go through the Boss Door to end the level. Level Four Go right, being careful to avoid the Star Fire attack of the Burnin' Leos scattered about. When you come to a Platform, press down to collect some goodies. Jump back up, swim through the waterfall, jump over the hill, and enter the door. Fly up as far as you can and enter the door. As soon as you appear in the room you'll be attacked by a Birdon. Destroy it quickly and move right. Keep jumping up the platforms and destroying the Bomb Blocks until one Bomb Block uncovers a door. Go through and continue right to the next door. Go right, being careful not to touch the Bomb Blocks, until you have to jump up and go left. Up right, up left, and so on. Do this until you finally come to a door. Enter it to find yourself in another left, right room full of Flying Bunnies. Just avoid them if you don't want to deal with them. Eventually you will come to a door. Enter it to find a Maxim Tomato and a Rocky just in case you have no power. Now you'll have to fight (with food in between) Frosty, Bonkers, and two Poppy Bros., in that order. After the Bros. is the Boss Door. Level Five There are no enemies. Go to the top of the hill you're on and enter the door. Choose the SWORD power with a Blade Knight helper and use the Warp Star. Beat Dyna Blade at the top for another mini-ending sequence. iv. Gourmet Race In Gourmet Race, you race with King Dedede to win the races and the most food. So, all you have to do is to get at least one more food item and win two races. HINTS * Run and try not to fly. This way you can usually stay a step ahead of Dedede. * If you see a ladder, climb it. Dedede must float himself up, so Kirby can win easily. * In Level 3, get the WING or JET power to be master of the skies or the WHEEL power to go fastest on the ground. Either way, you *SHOULD* take a power. * Take shortcuts. They work. * In Level 1, let Dedede bash the blocks. While he's still regaining his speed, you can be to the goal and back. Well, that's all I know for Gourmet Race! Have fun! v. The Great Cave Offensive NOTE: I will not tell you how to get all the treasures. This walkthru is simply so you can get out. NO TREASURES ARE INCLUDED. While on a picnic, Kirby fell into a huge cave. Rumor has it that this cave is full of treasures. Can Kirby find all the treasures and make it out of the cave alive? We shall see. Doing a spot of spelunking, eh, Kirby? Anyway, I'm just giving you the way out, not how to get every treasure (in fact, I'm giving you the locations of ZERO treasures! YAY!) . Okay, welcome to the Great Cave Offensive! If you find any treasures along the way, press up to get them while you're standing in front of the treasure. Now, here's the walkthru. . .When you first land, go right. Enter the door. As you come through a Knuckle Joe walks toward you. Inhale him for FIGHTER. Climb up on the platform and destroy the enemies. When you come to a ladder, climb down and go right. Destroy all but the middle Bomb Block if you want the Whip. Go right, drop down the hole, and enter the door. A Birdon flaps over. Punch it into oblivion and continue right. You'll see another Birdon, along with some Flying Bunnies. Climb down the ladder and head right, destroying the Birdon as it comes. Drop down into the water and swim to the right. Enter the door to go into a lava area. Run across the weak blocks, careful not to destroy the middle one if you want the treasure. Head upwards, kill the Winged Boppy, and keep pressing right. When you see a ladder, climb it. You'll see a "starry" door. Enter it for a Maxim Tomato and a save point. Exit the room and keep going right. Climb the next ladder, jump to the next platform, and enter the door. Through it is a fight with Bonkers. Beat him and keep going. Climb up the ladder, and the next one. Walk right a bit and climb down halfway. Jump off, create a helper, and inhale the Plasma Wisp. Go right, climb up, then go left again and climb up. Head right into the door. Go right across the platform, watching out for Spinning Color Wheels. Eventually you'll come to a door. Enter. This room contains a Maxim Tomato and 3 transform symbols. If you like what you have, keep it, but otherwise transform. Through this door is Fatty Whale. Beat him and ride the trolley to the end. Go through the door. Drop down through the platform, into the water. Enter the door. Drop down through the platform for a save point, and again for a 3-way split. Go into the far-right door. At the top of the hill is a Poppy Bro. Cutter. Kill him and keep going right. Climb up the second ladder (it's right before a flower candy) and keep going right. Climb up another ladder and just go right. Eventually there will be a U-shaped pit. Right below the first drop-down is a Maxim Tomato. If you need it, grab it. Otherwise fly up the other side of the U. Go into the door on your right. This is another boss room. Grab the tomato and a power if you want. Through the next door is an RPG battle. Fight it and continue to the right. Through this door is a trolley room. Ride it to the end. Enter the door and you'll materialize high above a castle. When you hit the ground, going to the far right will bring you to a save point. Then go through the door to the far left. Another trolley ride will take you to a door you should enter. Go left, but don't hit the switch unless you want a treasure (and a bushel of enemies down your throat). Continue to the far left and enter the door. Drop down through the platforms. As far as I know, there's no way to get that treasure, so just skip it. Drop down to the bottom and enter the door. Here is another save point, but where you want to go is the middle door. Go all the way right, until you drop down. Enter this door. This area is tricky. You have to drop down the platforms, avoiding the springs. Enter the door at the bottom for a rest spot. You're about to fight Wham Bam Rock. When you beat him, head left. Through the door is a trolley path. Ride it. Go through the door at the end and ride the elevators up. Fly up this shaft and jump into the Warp Star on your left. Congratulations! You've completed the Great Cave Offensive! VI. The Harder Levels i. Revenge of Meta Knight Level One Move the beginning text along by pressing B. When you get control of Kirby, go to the right. Swallow a Gim for the YOYO power, then open the gate by pressing the switch and enter the door. Move down the ladders, beating up the Halberd's crew as you go. Go down the elevator, but beware of the Halberd guard at the bottom. Enter the door, and concentrate on dodging Heavy Lobster while the Halberd prepares to take off. When it does, you'll be blown away, and land in another area. Level Two Go right, avoiding the Birdons and other enemies. Watch out for jumping fish. When you reach the three Anemones on platforms, dive into the water and go below the wall. Pause a moment to let the Birdon drop into the water, then fly up and resume your eastward movement. When you see the Poppy Bro. Jr., get ready for a battle. When you move to confront it, Smasher appears. Quickly dispatch Jr., then move a safe distance away from Smasher and berate him with your YOYO. Inhale him for FIGHTER if you want, but it might be a better idea to keep your YOYO. Continue moving right and enter the door. Run up the hill, killing Flying Bunnies as you go, until you come to the water. Swim through it until you see the point where you should get out. Wait a moment and a Bomb will drop into the water and harmlessly disappear. Get out of the water and drop down the little pit for a Maxim Tomato. Destroy the Bomb Block below you and continue swimming, careful not to hit the Spikes. A little to the right is a point where you can get a Hot Dog. Take it and go right. Enter the door. This area is probably the second-hardest place in Revenge of Meta Knight. Move quickly right, Water Gunning enemies, until you come to a ladder. Climb up it, staying just in sight on the leading edge of the screen. Careful not to be hit, jump out and destroy the enemies, then the Bomb Blocks. Watch out for the tough Rockys. If you've managed to stay ahead of the rapidly scrolling screen, you'll see a door. Enter it. Here you have a choice of powers. If you've managed to keep YOYO, stick with it. Otherwise use PARASOL. Once you're ready (drop below the platform for a Maxim Tomato), enter the door to fight Whispy Woods and then Twin Woods. They should be easy for you at this point, and once they're gone, watch the little animated sequence. Level Three Go left, killing the Chickies and Hennies before they see you with the long-range YOYO. If you happened to die while fighting the Woods triplets, there is a Knuckle Joe here as well as Mike. Enter the door on your left, and immediately after the scene changes move right and kill the TAC. There are lots of these in this area. Move up the tree, destroying Bomb Blocks and Mushrooms, until you come to a door. Go in. When you step on the switch, a cannon falls to your right and a Maxim Tomato to your left. Quickly grab the tomato and scram. Continue moving upwards and enter the door at the top. Above you are the powers ICE and CUTTER. Choose one if you like, because you're about to fight two Bonkers mini-bosses. Concentrate on one at a time to kill them faster. When they're gone, continue left. Destroy the bombs until you have a choice of two paths. Take the left one for a WHEEL transform symbol and some food. Enter the door and move through this area. At this point you may want to create a Gim helper and inhale the Blade Knight ahead. Anyway, keep going until you see a Bomb Block. DO NOT DESTROY IT. It will fill the area with lava squares, which is not healthy for you or (especially) your helper. Move up the ramps, cautious of Flying Bunnies. On the third floor, about halfway across is a TAC. Keep going upwards until you come to a door. Go in and jump immediately, for directly ahead for you is a Burnin' Leo which would like to shoot a fireball that will knock your power out. When you're appraised of the danger, create a Gim helper and inhale Leo. Go up the ladder, light the end of the right cannon's fuse, and hop in. Level Four Here you may want to throw away FIRE and regain YOYO. I recommend it. Go right, conscious of the Sir Kibbles and Spikes. Run quickly across the Weak Blocks. Ride the first coaster, but be careful to avoid the second. Continue right and enter the door. Here two Halberd Crew members will materialize. They're pushovers with the YOYO---just hold up and hit Y. Careful of their attacks, though. After beating move a little more to the right for two more Crew members. After you beat them, go right and enter the door. If you died while fighting the Halberd Crew, there is a Poppy Bro. Cutter here. Hold Up while on the elevator to avoid the cannon to your right and confront the Plasma Wisp next to you. You can either create a Sir Kibble helper and get PLASMA, or stick with CUTTER. I recommend the former course of action. As you exit the second elevator, a Plasma Wisp will materialize. Kill it and the Poppy Cousin to its left. Go left and enter Elevator No. 3. When it gets to the top, quickly destroy the Bomb Block to disable the cannons. Enter the door and beware of the Bio Spark to your right. Kill it with a Wave Cannon shot and continue right to meet a Butterfingers and Poppy Bro. Sr. - together! Show them some static strikes and they'll realize it isn't nice to pick on things smaller than you. Keep going right and you'll see another Bio Spark, a Star Thrower, and a Gim. Kill them all and enter the door. Grab YOYO and have your helper follow. Grab the Maxim Tomato below you and then enter the door to your right to fight the Halberd's Twin Cannon. Beat it and continue to Level Five. Level Five Move right, watching out for Capsule J's and Laser Sentries. Jump into the Warp Star on your right. Go down, destroying Bomb Blocks and climbing down ladders, until you come to the bottom. When you do, move right until you come to a row of blocks with a Bomb Block in the center. Destroy it to make the wall vanish, collect the Maxim Tomato, then continue right to fight Frosty the walrus. Kill him and continue walking. You'll see a Warp Star. Jump in. Level Six When the explosions stop, press Up in front of the hole they have created. Crawl through the duct until you come to an elevator. Ride it up. Kill the Sir Kibble, move to the gate, and press the switch using your power. Go through and ride the elevator up. Move left and enter the door. Here is a rest point. Coming up is a chase by Heavy Lobster. I can't walk you through it, but I can suggest you keep YOYO if you have it. Otherwise use SWORD. When the chase is over, Heavy Lobster will jump up to the left side of the platform. Be somewhere else. Cook the Lobster to complete Level Six. Level Seven Jump and free-fall. When you see a door, fly over to the platform and enter it. After reading the crew's complaints, begin to destroy Bomb Blocks and keep going left until you see a door. Go in. This is a mazelike area where you must open gates with switches. If you still have YOYO, use that. Otherwise I guess WING is okay. After you're through the maze, walk to the elevator and go down. You'll stop, but hopefully you managed to avoid the Mobile Cannon's shots. Now that you know where it is, go up and kill it. Go right, enter the other elevator, and go down. If you like you can go left and get food at the first stop. Otherwise keep going down and flick the switch, first killing the M. Cannon. Go to the 2nd to last stop for a YOYO transform symbol and a 1-up. Grab them and continue down and right. Kill the 4 Mobile Cannons, and use your YOYO to destroy the walls and come upon a crew member's stash of hidden tomatoes. Eat up and exit the way you came. Enter the door on your right, grab the Maxim Tomato, and enter the next door to fight the Halberd's Reactor. Beat it to end Level Seven. Level Eight Move right, staying ahead of the scrolling screen. Grab YOYO if you don't have it already. Enter the door at the end of the scrolling section, grab the Maxim Tomato, and ride up the elevator. At the top, move right to fight about 8 of the Halberd's Crew (don't worry, they only appear 3 at a time). Beat them and continue. Go right and enter the door. Don't bother taking a power unless you want a helper, because you must fight Meta Knight with SWORD. Beat him and wait until you have control of Kirby and his Wheelie. Zoom through the level, ignoring Meta Knight. Ride off the final rise and watch the Mega Man X-esque ending. ii. Milky Way Wishes A. Walkthru a. Floria When you start, go up the ladder continuously until it's wintertime. Then go to the far left and enter the door. ICE will be waiting for you. When you have it, exit and change the season to autumn. Then jump over the cut tree and continue right. When you come to a lake, enter the door to make it winter. Break the ice to uncover the door. When you enter, you'll find FIGHTER. Exit and keep going right. Go over the snow- covered tree and change the season to summer. Enter the door in the tree for CUTTER. Exit and go as far right as you can. Then make it autumn. Go over the cut tree and enter the door to fight the boss, Twin Woods. b. Aqualiss Enter the door when you start. Go right until you come to some Bomb Blocks. Break them and drop into the drink. Go right and break the Bomb Block. Keep going right until you can go no farther. Then fly up and walk. Drop back down into the water and destroy the Bomb Block you couldn't get before. It will create a door above it, which contains PARASOL. Grab it, exit, and continue to the right. Eventually you come to a cannon. Don't worry about it now; there's no way for you to light the fuse. Just keep going. Enter the door on the right to go into a strange water-with-air-bubbles area. Swim through it, eventually coming to the upper-right corner. Kill the Broom Sweeper and Knuckle Joe. Then continue right and drop back into the water. Get out and continue right on land. Then step back into the water and go to the door at the top of the room. When you reappear, swim down until you can see a door to the right of a Halberd Crew member. Avoid the Crew and enter the door. Go through this room until you come to the end. Beat Butterfingers for SWORD. Then exit the way you came, drop off the platform on the right side, and go into the lower-right corner of the Halberd Crew room to find the door. Through it is a water maze. Go down, right, down, right, and up for the BEAM power. Go down, right, down, right, down, right, right, right, down, right, and up to find a purple platform. Go to the end to find the boss door. The boss of Aqualiss is Fatty Whale. c. Skyhigh Go through the door next to which you start. Go right until you see a lone Star Block above you, walled in by solid blocks. Break it and fly up the shaft for JET. Continue right to a cannon fuse. Light it with JET and hop in. At the top you'll find WHEEL. Exit and continue right. You'll now be in a room with three exits. Go around and around the maze until you find WING, and then the boss door. Equip yourself with FIGHTER, grab the lollipop, and go in. The invincibility will last just long enough for you to kill Kracko, the boss. d. Hotbeat This place is a lava-filled mess. Go right from the entrance, then left. Blow up the Bomb Block and go up to where the lollipop is. Grab it and fly THROUGH the lava and enter the door. Jump up to find FIRE. Go to the right of where the lollipop was and enter the door. Jump in the mine cart and keep jumping in mine carts until you notice weak blocks above you. Break them and enter the door. Beat Buggzy for SUPLEX. Exit, hop in a mine cart, and go right. When your cart stops, you've reached the door. Enter and work your way to the right. You'll come to a cannon maze. You want to go to the right, so when you can control the direction, choose right. You'll come to the boss door, where you'll fight Chameleo Arm. e. Cavios Enter the door you in front of which you start. Watch out for Bio Sparks and Gims as you try to beat all the mini-bosses here. Eventually, you should find BOMB and HAMMER. After getting HAMMER, head right and climb down the ladder. Go left and beat Buggzy to create a door. Go through and hit the Bomb Block at the top of the room. Then flick the switch and make your way through the gate it opens. Go through the door and grab STONE. Exit and go right and down. Go into the boss door and fight Wham Bam Rock. f. Mecheye Enter the door next to you and head right. Enter the cannon and blast to your right. Catch yourself so you don't fall down the pit and continue right. Break the Bomb Block, get the stuff, and enter the door. Go right and crawl through this area. Enter the door and go all the way down for YOYO. Use the wind chute on your left to go back up. Exit and continue right. In the next mazelike area, use YOYO to flick the switches and make it through. Enter the door at the end and continue right. Use the elevator and go to each floor successively, beating mini-bosses. When the boss door appears, go up one more flight and go left. Beat the mini-boss for PLASMA. Go to the right side, kill the Plasma Wisps, and press right so you can see the Bomb Block. Use a Plasma Laser to hit it and allow entry. After looting this room, enter the boss door. Heavy Lobster is the boss here. g. Halfmoon When you start, head into the door. Go with the wind to the right until you see a Warp Star. Break it loose and ride it to the next door. Enter this trolley room and ride until you see a lone Star Block below you. Break it and enter the door below it for MIRROR. Exit and keep going right. Enter the door here. Jump on the Warp Star and ride through this area. Beat Cook Kawasaki and Smasher to make a door appear. Enter the door. You'll be in a wind room. Puff yourself up and fly up until you see a Bomb Block. Break it and enter the door for NINJA. Exit and continue to fly to the top. Enter the door there. To beat Halfmoon, you'll need to fight an RPG Battle. h. TACStar No pun on StarTac intended. This small planet is located between Cavios and Skyhigh. It looks like a small green star. This is a linear area at the end of which you'll find COPY. Good luck! i. Nova In this level, you'll fly a star chariot. Use any button to fire a quick burst of stars. Move right, avoiding floors, ceilings, and walls. To check if something is a wall, shoot it. B.

The Arena This place is really tough. You must fight 20 battles in succession, with only 5 Maxim Tomatoes to heal you in between. My only tips are: * Pick a power you LIKE. You work best with your own favorites. * Look at the "Next" square to see if you need to heal or not. Generally, even if your next enemy is only the Halberd Reactor, you should heal if you have 1/4 life or less. * Don't use a weapon that you know you will probably have to change. It's better to stick with one, because you gain experience with it. * Don't use BEAM! * Don't bother with helpers. They're pretty much useless. I guarantee you they die in the first battle, if it isn't against Waddle Dee. * FIGHTER works quite well. That's all I have to say. Good luck! VII. The Minigames i. Megaton Punch The Megaton Punch is a pretty simple concept. You must try to make a crack in Dream Land that is deeper than your opponent's. Your opponents are Waddle Dee, Knuckle Joe, and Smasher, in that order. Your "Mt. Count," that is, "Megaton Count," must be higher than theirs is. A perfect score is 200 Mt. I suppose that would split Dream Land in half. I don't know, because I can't do it. But I digress. To make a crack, you must time 3 presses of the A button. The first one is power. You must try to stop the power bar at the top. The second is accuracy. Two crosshairs circle each other. You have to try to stop them when they overlap perfectly. The third is timing. A small pendulum swings back and forth, going through a circle at the middle of its arc. You need to stop it in the center of that circle. This isn't easy, so I have a few tips. * Wait until your opponent is done before you start. It can severely impair your effort to crack Dream Land in half if your opponent distracts you. * Don't try to upstage your opponent. Just do your best. * Press the A button GENTLY. It will only make your timing worse if you jam your finger into it. ii. Samurai Kirby In this unique minigame, you must try to be faster than your opponent in a test of speed and skill. You and your opponent face off. When you see one, two, or three exclamation points, you must press A as fast as you can (not repeatedly, just once). If you're fast enough, you'll win. If you jump the gun, it won't count. Two misfires will cause you to lose. Look at the road sign to see the winner's speed (in hundredths of seconds). This is harder than Megaton Punch (at least for me), so I have some pointers. * As in Megaton Punch, your A button really doesn't like getting body slammed into the controller. * Do this somewhere quiet. * It may help you to close your eyes and listen for the sound the signal makes. * Rest your finger on the A button so that it is being slightly depressed. This will help you to press it faster, because milliseconds count. IX. Credits i. Thanks I'd like to say thanks to a bunch of people. My mom - She rented me the game.
