Game appearances

Kirby Super Star

The Galactic Nova first appears in Kirby Super Star, playing a major role in the "Milky Way Wishes" game. During Milky Way Wishes, the sun and moon are fighting each other. Kirby is told by Marx that he must find the Galactic Nova and wish on it to end the conflict.

When Kirby finds the stars on each of the planets, he summons the Galactic Nova. However, before he can grant a wish, Marx appears, knocking Kirby away and wishing to rule Popstar. NOVA flies away to grants his request, while Kirby, who is given the Starship, attempts to stop him. Kirby flies into Nova's core and destroys it, halting the entity and preventing it from granting Marx's wish.

After Kirby manages to beat Marx, Marx is shown flying into the Galactic Nova, causing it to explode.

"I WILL GRANT YOU ONE WISH..." says NOVA.

In Kirby Super Star Ultra, the enhanced remake of Kirby Super Star, it is revealed in The True Arena that after the Nova (and Marx) explode, the remaining power from the NOVA begins to build up and is absorbed by Marx, who is brought back to life as a mutated, zombie-like form known as Marx Soul.

Nova also appears near the end of Meta Knightmare Ultra. After Meta Knight gathers the stars, the Galactic Nova appears to him, by reassembling himself; his appearance shows him to have sustained damage. Meta Knight's wish is to fight the greatest warrior in the galaxy. In compliance, Nova summons Galacta Knight, a warrior so powerful he was sealed away due to his immense power being a threat.

Since Marx absorbs Nova to become Marx Soul and Galacta Knight is summoned using Nova, that would mean that there is at least two Novas. This is confirmed not only by the fact that when Kirby summons Nova, it appears different from when Meta Knight summons Nova, in that when Kirby summons Nova, it looks normal, like it was summoned in a typical fashion, whereas when Meta Knight summons it, Nova appears to reconstruct. Nova could not be reconstructed, though, if Marx Soul had absorbed the entirety of it and soon been destroyed completely, taking Nova with it. The events of Meta Knightmare Ultra cannot take place before the events of Milky Way Wishes due to Nova being reconstructed, which it would have no reason to do. This is confirmed by Magolor, who, in Kirby's Return to Dreamland states "This same power gave rise to clockwork stars that soar the cosmos," referring to the power of the Master Crown that empowered the plural clockwork stars (the clockwork stars obviously being the Novas).
