Kirby Super Star Ultra[a] is a 2008 anthology action-platform game developed by HAL Laboratory and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo DS. The game is an enhanced remake of Kirby Super Star, originally released for the Super Nintendo Entertainment System in 1996, to commemorate the Kirby series' 15th anniversary.[1] The remake retains all game modes found in the original, and adds four major new ones, along with adding updated visuals and full-motion video cutscenes.[1]
The game was released in North America on September 22, 2008, in Japan on November 6, 2008, and in Europe on September 18, 2009.[2] The game received positive reviews, praising the game's conversion to handheld, visual and audio aesthetic, and large amount of added content. Like its predecessor, it was also criticized for being too easy.
Kirby Super Star Ultra sold just under 3 million copies, making it the best-selling Kirby game since the series' debut, Kirby's Dream Land, in 1992,[3] and is currently the fourth best selling game in the series.
