Galactic Nova Nucleus (originally called Heart of Nova) is the second-to-last boss of Milky Way Wishes in the SNES game Kirby Super Star, and its Nintendo DS remake, Kirby Super Star Ultra. This boss is faced at the end of the Nova stage in Milky Way Wishes, and is battled again in The Arena.
Battle
After using the Starship to fly through the beginning area of the stage, Kirby comes across a big metal chamber with a giant heart-shaped object floating in some kind of central axiom, though he never interacts with this object directly. Instead, Kirby flies around the edge of the chamber, shooting at odd shapes suspended between metal pillars. These pillars move automatically toward and/or away from Kirby, and he will take damage if he collides with them, so he must try to blow the shapes out of the pillars to allow safer passage through.
There are eight total pillars, and Kirby will have to cycle back through the first seven before gaining access to the eighth. Each pillar has a differing-width gap inset, with different shapes that have differing amounts of HP. Kirby must destroy the shapes in all of the pillars to defeat the boss.
Trivia
- Star Dream Soul OS's fourth phase is similar to this boss, though Kirby is on the ground and must use his selected ability, since he lost the Robobot Armor.
