Release date GET!

After several months since it was first announced, Kirby Ultra Super Deluxe has resurfaced as Kirby Super Star Ultra, scheduled to be released in North America on September 29. Mark your calendars!


Nintendo's press release from press.nintendo.com:

Kirby Super Star Ultra for Nintendo DS, launching Sept. 29, re-imagines one of the most beloved Kirby games of all time. Kirby Super Star Ultra features new graphics and fully rendered animated cut scenes. With so many adventures waiting to be unlocked, there will never be a dull moment as Kirby runs, floats, copies enemies and uses Helpers to fight King Dedede and Meta Knight. New modes like Revenge of the King and Meta Knight Ultra await, along with classics like The Great Cave Offensive and Milky Way Wishes. On top of the main modes, there are also three new touch-screen-controlled mini-games that can be played with up to three friends via DS Download Play. Not only that, but players can go on Kirby adventures with a friend via local wireless as well.

He's happy, and on an American release, too! I can't wait to play this! GCO will be so much easier now that I've memorized all treasure locations. Revenge of Meta Knight will be so cool. MWW will be just as epic, I can sense it.

REVENGE OF THE KING :D
If it's a Super Star remake it's probably awesome.
Posted by Aki-Chan on 9:16am June 25th, 2008
Lol I sent an e-mail to Kindar about this but you did it Disaster K!
This was announced at the same time as Fire Emblem DS, but they didn't announce a press release for that one yet :(
SOLD :3

No more angry Kirby on the front cover?? NOA, we THANK YOU!!!

I really hope that they don't get rid of RoMK, I've always wanted to play that.
Posted by Torkirby on 9:28am June 25th, 2008
YES!! YES!!
September 29th? that's too far away!:(

Oh well... 3-d animated Marx Plz!!!
Posted by Cappy on 9:33am June 25th, 2008
YEAH!
I can't wait so long however...
Posted by Waddle Daa on 10:08am June 25th, 2008
A new DS game? That's awesome! Let there be comments! (but not really over do it :D)...
Posted by MKKATIE on 10:38am June 25th, 2008
Meta Knight Ultra? Is that a snzzier version of the controversial favorite, rvenge of Meta Knight? Or is it Revenge of the King and Meta Knight, infering that they've teamed up?

I hope thaey add or move around Great Cave treasures...It's my favorite KSS game, I know where every treasure is by heart!

No angry kirby! Huzzah!

Thus ends my babbling.

A new Kirby game, eh? But why does it matter to me? I don't like anything that has to do with Kirby, and I don't own a DS <:-I
Posted by Cory-sama on 11:12am June 25th, 2008
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SOOOOO LONG!!! Though I'm sure this info has been around
Posted by agumike on 11:21am June 25th, 2008
Th...th...though it's kind of a dumb name, I ALMOST FAINTED WITH NO BLOOD CIRCULATION. English confirmation AND RELEASE?! Praise HAL and Nintendo of America (for once), I want to go scream to the heavens how happy I am!!!!!

Now I can finally play this!
Posted by Q27 on 11:39am June 25th, 2008
MARX. BACK. I WANT NOW. But sheesh, September has lots of releases I want, Trouble in Paradise, Ham-Ham Challenge now this?
Posted by Mika on 11:52am June 25th, 2008
Awesome! <3
KSS was one of my favorite SNES games.
I hope they don't mess up Kirby's abilities like they did in many recent games (e.g. Kirby's Fire ability from KSS was split into two separate transformations in The Amazing Mirror -.-)
Posted by Tingle on 11:55am June 25th, 2008
I MURRING LOVE YOU, NINTENDO. <3 I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS GAME FOR SO LONG AND IT'S FINALLY GONNA BE RELEASED!! %D %D %D
Posted by BabyCharmander on 12:16pm June 25th, 2008
YES! Kirby hits the DS once again! I actually didn't know there would be animated cut scenes. That's exciting. Hopefully they will be exciting rather than stupid like the Kirby 64 ones.
Posted by VBKirby on 12:29pm June 25th, 2008
THANK GOD, a KSS remake :D
Posted by Drew595 on 1:06pm June 25th, 2008
Wait, whoa, ANIMATED?! I thought they were just still pictures with text!!


...Also, I'm suspicious. Nintendo of Japan hasn't said anything, nor have Japanese Kirby fan sites. Weird that Nintendo of America is suddenly announcing it...

Maybe it'll appear at E3 July! Ooh, how exciting!
Posted by Lei on 2:55pm June 25th, 2008
Oh, to Tingle, you got it mixed up. Those two abilities were fused into one for Super Star. It was originally Fire and Fire Ball, (Later named Burning) two seperate powers.
Posted by VBKirby on 3:31pm June 25th, 2008
"Hopefully they will be exciting rather than stupid like the Kirby 64 ones." - VBKirby

They weren't stupid, just overly childish. Finally, I get to play KSS, seeing that it has been the most famous and most popular Kirby game around. Hopefully, they keep some elements in from the original game.
Posted by zero-slash on 3:37pm June 25th, 2008
you're right zero-slash...
Posted by MKKATIE on 3:39pm June 25th, 2008
FINALLY!!! YES!!!!! I can't wait for it. I never got to play the original, and I just can't wait.
Posted by Prince Flarema on 4:16pm June 25th, 2008
"Hopefully they will be exciting rather than stupid like the Kirby 64 ones." - VBKirby

Kirby 64 wasnt stupid. it was a very fun and enjoyable game - just like any other Kirby game. Kirby 64 was also one of the more fun ones to boot.

"They weren't stupid, just overly childish" - zero-slash

every Kirby game is childish. thats what makes them fun and cherishable! i enjoyed watching the K64 cut-scenes myself.
Posted by Chimchar on 4:45pm June 25th, 2008
I've never actually owned a Kirby game before, I "borrow" them from my little bro...lol, but this game will be awesome, I'me sure!
Posted by metyfan on 4:59pm June 25th, 2008
Now that HAL\'s got the Super Star engine on DS, an all-new game with the same engine would be much appreciated.

...also Sailor Waddle Dee should be playable.
Posted by Hyarion on 5:06pm June 25th, 2008
OH MY GOD OH MY GOD.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THIS AND KIRBY WII.
YES!!!!!!
Posted by nicodoll on 9:18pm June 25th, 2008
Wooo!! The only game with the best Kirby ability!!! YAY! I wonder about those 'new' modes though... hmm
Posted by MirrorKirby on 12:13am June 26th, 2008
Great! I always wanted to play Super Star. However, I've always been a sucker for the originals. Lets hope Super Star is also released on the VC!
Posted by superyoshi888 on 7:24am June 26th, 2008
OMG! OMG! Kirby Super Star, except new and improved! :D I must buy it!!! September is going to come really slow now :O
Posted by luvkirby4ever on 7:35am June 26th, 2008
It's hilarious and kind of scary because I estimated a late September release MONTHS ago! Rainbow Resort should make a game page as more information is revealed!
Posted by Lei on 10:13am June 26th, 2008
Holy stars! I must save moneh! I hope to see Marx remade or something, yay! ^^ *Adds date*
Posted by Pikmingirl on 12:26pm June 26th, 2008
YES!!!!!!!!11!!!!1

Finally!

...

Wait, no Wi-Fi capabilities?!
Posted by Lunar Guy on 12:49pm June 26th, 2008
This is no fair. The ONE time I lose my DS outside. I must replace it by September. *heads to store*
Posted by PlatefieldKirby724 on 1:17pm June 26th, 2008
YES!!!!!!!!!! I'VE AWAITED THIS DAY FOR 8 YEARS!!!!!!!! FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted by Gaia on 3:13pm June 26th, 2008
ALRIGHT!!! Horray for Kirby! And Nintendo Rules is gotta get in to it!
Posted by Shawne on 4:30pm June 26th, 2008
"every Kirby game is childish." - Chimchar

I stated that the game was overly childish. I know the games are childish, but this game felt that they were aiming for a younger audience. It was still a very fun game. I need to find it soon; I only have one Kirby game available to me. D:
Posted by zero-slash on 6:46pm June 26th, 2008
Yay! It comes out on the month of my birthday ...

But it comes out when nobody I know has transportation.
Posted by Blue Kirby on 10:01pm June 26th, 2008
Wow! I used to really enjoy kirby, but kinda stopped liking it a little. My friend still loves it though, so he told me about this website! I'm glad I came, cuz now I can't wait for this new game to come out! IT LOOKS SICK!!!!!
Posted by Friend of Kirby Mega-Fan on 5:33am June 27th, 2008
I guess they've caught on to the fact that KSS was one of the best, if not THE best. They started reusing gameplay features that made it interesting, and here we've got a DS remake! :D

Oh, by the way, just curious: Where'd you find the logo?
Posted by Alice2 on 6:15am June 27th, 2008
KIRBY FINALLY SMILES! KIRBY FINALLY SMILES! Finally, a NA Kirby game with him smiling on the cover!
Posted by Maraphy on 10:10am June 27th, 2008
Deep breaths...(gasp) I've owned every
kirby game in the U.S, an I can tell if it's suckish. But this... well lets
just say if I LOVED the first one, i'm
in for a treat! PaRtY!
Posted by Mikethekirby on 12:15pm June 27th, 2008
I love you...
Posted by Kid Kirby #1 on 3:04pm June 27th, 2008
This is gonna be so awesome! I've seen some game graphics at http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/B0oVnuY-cPZa2yxN1TjcRPzoWxT96VH7 and everything is totally redone.
Posted by Kid Kirby #1 on 3:09pm June 27th, 2008
@VBKirby: Aww damn, never played this one ^.^*
Anyways the KSS-Kirby was the best, he could even use something like a shield... A SHIELD! Oh and his awesome Ninja skills (stick on walls, disappear when hit, attack with blades from the ground), the lovely Fighter-Uppercut, the mighty fully charged Plasma sphere, the Smash Bros. down-throw stomping attack, the blue star Crash attack (which looked way cooler than those new white explosions), and so on...<3
Posted by Tingle on 4:20pm June 27th, 2008
OMGWTFBBQ SO GETTING THIS GAME!! <3 YESS!!
Posted by Girla PurpleHeart on 4:25pm June 27th, 2008
GAH! This is going to be so glorious when it comes out! KSS is my favourite Kirby game of all time, and now I can finally stop wasting my time trying to emulate the SNES version on my DS. HURRY UP AND COME OUT
Posted by Knight ov Satan on 9:30pm June 27th, 2008
This is going to be the single greatest Kirby game ever made, Super Star was so amazing. I can't wait =D
Posted by Kirby Lee on 7:15am June 28th, 2008
OMG new kirby game is it for DS
i hope
Posted by kirby poyo moyo on 10:56am June 28th, 2008
OK OK OK, the whole "Kirby is for babies" or "little girls" comments are really ticing me off. Super Star was pretty mature (Revenge of Meta Knight, Milky Way Wishes) all things considered with a kid-friendly tone (Spring Breeze, Dyna Blade). It's my favorite game in the series, most likely (Dream Land 3/Kirby 64 comes close).

Yeah, I bet the new games will be fun, yet at the same time I'm suspicious of them... >_> But Canvas Curse and Amazing Mirorr (second and third most recent) were really brilliant, so maybe they will be great!
Posted by Lei on 11:36am June 28th, 2008
Sweet! This Game is going to be cool, I can't wait until it comes.
Posted by Melissa on 7:57pm June 28th, 2008
I brushed up on this game a while ago; here's a facts list on everything we know.

- 3-D animated cutscenes
- returning modes are Revenge of Meta Knight, Milky Way Wishes, Spring Breeze, Dyna Blade, and The Great Cave Offensive
- new modes are Revenge of the King and Meta Knight Ultra, and some other modes involving card-collecting or something, and some shooting gallery game
- you unlock new games by beating previous ones like the original
- new revamped graphics
- wireless play/DS download play

I'm very interested. Also Alice2, I agree, I couldn't find this logo anywhere else, not even Nintendo's Press Page.

Hey Lei you didn\'t say gorment race. Are you telling me it won\'t be there. >:(

Posted by Smash Kirby on 10:59am July 1st, 2008
I do remember seeing screenshots from Gourmet Race, and it was confirmed before, too, so I definitely think that Gourmet Race is still in.
