Kirby at it's best.
The "compilation of multiple games" structure works nicely as an excuse for the developers to try out different ideas and objectives that become the center of each scenario presented in each main mode. While Spring Breeze is your typical Kirby fare, Revenge of Meta Knight takes that level design and ups the ante with a timer on each section. Stuff like this keeps the game consistently fresh and different with each main mode you unlock; Nothing is quite the same as the one before, and I think that's Super Star Ultra's greatest strength.
This is a truly perfect remake in the same vein as something like Metroid: Zero Mission, where everything from the original is intact, but enhanced with some quality of life, and entirely new modes that make it feel like a completely new experience. It outshines the original in absolutely every way, and stands on it's own as potentially the best game in the series. If you've never played a Kirby game before, this one's got everything you could love from the series.
