This article covers a list of references to The Legendary Starfy series in non-Starfy games.
Nintendo games
This section holds information about references to The Legendary Starfy series in non-Starfy games published by Nintendo.
In Donkey Konga
One of the available tracks in the Japanese version of Donkey Konga is "Densetsu no Starfy". This is the full version of Becky's version of the series Title Song, complete with lyrics. This song was first heard in at least two Japanese commercials for Densetsu no Starfy. It was later released in the album Becky: Densetsu no Starfy. The song once appeared in an episode of the Japanese television show Oha Suta: The Super Kids Station, in which Becky made a guest appearance on the show to promote the sale of the album.
In Dr. Mario & Puzzle League
Development text for the game can be found in a "bmg" file. Some of this development text seems to originate from the Game Boy Advance The Legendary Starfy series games, including an explanation about how collecting 5 Pearls restores Starfy's health and possibly text from Moe and Starly. [1] It is notable that TOSE contributed to the development of this game, for example, Morihiro Iwamoto worked on the music for Dr. Mario.
In Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga
Starfy makes a cameo appearance in the Yoshi Theater, where he appears on the poster of a movie titled 'Legend of Stafy'. This was the first appearance of Starfy outside of Japan. The artwork depicts the front cover of Densetsu no Starfy.
In Super Princess Peach
- Main article: Super Princess Peach
Super Princess Peach shares several similarities in gameplay with games in The Legendary Starfy series, likely because the game was developed by TOSE.
Most notably, Super Princess Peach includes a 'Starfish' enemy resembling Starfy wearing sunglasses that has the glossary entry "a star-shaped foe rumored to be the prince of a kingdom?". Its glossary entry may be a referring to Starfy who is the prince of Pufftop.
The fragile platforms in Shriek Mansion, Fury Volcano and Bowser's Villa feature fragile platforms that require Princess Peach to walk slowly on them using the L or R buttons. Similar platforms are used in Misty Town in Densetsu no Starfy 3 that require Starfy and Starly to glide on to them and walk slowly to avoid breaking them.
In Super Smash Bros. Brawl
Starfy has a small role in Brawl, which is being an Assist Trophy. An Assist Trophy is an item that allows players to have another character help them in battle. However, Starfy is known as one of the weakest Assist Trophies, because the characters can attack and push him off the stage, unlike other Assist Trophies. Starfy's only method of attacking in Brawl is using Star Spins.
In addition, both Starfy and Starly (called Stafy and Stapy respectively) appear as regular trophies, and Starfy, Starly, Moe (Kyorosuke), Chonmagyo, Mattel (Materu), Seiuchi-kun and Herman (Yadokarita) appear as stickers. There are two Starfy stickers. The first sticker depicts the official artwork of Starfy swimming from Densetsu no Starfy. The second sticker depicts the official artwork of Starfy wearing one of the Stuff (possibly the Aloha Shirt) from Densetsu no Starfy 2.
In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U
On December 25, 2013, it was revealed that Starfy will appear in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U via a picture of the day on the official Smash Bros. website, showing Starfy, a yellow Luma and Pikachu. [2] The picture of the day was also posted on Miiverse with the text "Pic of the day. Yellow characters." (Japanese: きょうの一枚。 黄色いいきものたち。, Picture of the Day. Yellow Creatures).[3][4]
Starfy was not introduced as a new character on its own page on the site, so it is very likely he will appear as an Assist Trophy, like in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. It hasn't been revealed whether Starfy or related characters from The Legendary Starfy series will appear as Trophies or Stickers at this point.
Unofficial games
In I wanna get the five stars!
This Japanese GameMaker game based on the PC game "I Wanna Be the Guy" features a stage based on The Legendary Starfy series with Buirun as the boss. The star shaped character on the title screen may also be based on Starfy because on the top-left portion of it he has pink cheeks.
In Rockman 4: Minus Infinity
Two tunes from Rockman 4: Minus Infinity; a Japanese ROM hack of Mega Man 4 are based on music from Densetsu no Starfy 2 and Densetsu no Starfy 3. The Cossack 1+2 boss theme is derived from the tune Hero Lobber from both games, and the Wily boss theme is derived from the tune Jashin Evil from Densetsu no Starfy 3, which plays against Evil's second form.
