'''Revenge of Meta Knight''' is the fifth main game in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and [[Kirby Super Star Ultra|its remake]]. This game takes a much more serious tone than the other games in the collection, and tasks Kirby with stopping [[Meta Knight]] and the [[Meta-Knights]] from taking over [[Dream Land]] using their giant ominous flying warship, the [[Halberd]]. The game is split into seven chapters, and is unique from the other main games in that every stage has to be completed within a time limit. | '''Revenge of Meta Knight''' is the fifth main game in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and [[Kirby Super Star Ultra|its remake]].

Most of the game takes place aboard the giant mechanical battleship Halberd and as such, features murky metallic architecture and color themes, along with erratic fast-paced music and giant mechanical [[Boss]]es such as [[Heavy Lobster]] and the [[Combo Cannon]].

Cut-scenes in the original version are handled with sprite-work, similar to gameplay proper. These scenes are also generally quick, lasting only a few seconds each. Cut-scenes in the remake are handled through pre-rendered 3-D scenes which are generally longer. Additionally, a scene near the end where Kirby falls from the cabin to find a Wheelie is handled in-game in the original, but is handled in a separate scene in the remake. | Cut-scenes in the original version are handled with sprite-work, similar to gameplay proper.
