Meta Knightmare Ultra
Meta Knightmare Ultra is a mode exclusive to Kirby Super Star Ultra. It is all the main modes from Kirby Super Star(minus Gourmet Race and the Arena), with one main difference- the unknown reader plays as Meta Knight instead of Kirby or a helper. Also unlike the original game, the time it takes to complete each Kirby Super Star mode is recorded. The mode also has its own storyline.
Story
Meta Knight flies to various places in Dream Land, training to become stronger. After going across Pop Star and the surrounding planets, Meta Knight visits the Galactic NOVA, which can grant wishes. Meta Knight asks to fight the greatest warrior in the galaxy, so NOVA calls in Galacta Knight, who was sealed away because he was thought to be too powerful. Meta Knight defeats Galactic Knight, his training and the mode are both complete.
Gameplay Differences
As expected, moving Meta Knight is different from moving Kirby. Meta Knight can't inhale or copy foes, but he always can fly like the wing ability and attack like the sword ability. Also, Meta Knight can use energy, as explained below. Food is harder to find, as all normal food is removed, and Maxim Tomatoes and Copy Essence Deluxes are replaced by food.
Energy
Meta Knight not only gets score for defeating enemies, he also gets energy from them (one energy from normal enemies, five from a mid-boss, and ten from a boss). Meta Knight can use this energy to perform special attacks. Each one is performed by tapping its icon on the Nintendo DS touch screen. He can only hold up to 50 energy.
