This game is unlocked by completing [[The Great Cave Offensive]] and [[Revenge of Meta Knight]] (which requires clearing [[Dyna Blade (main game)|Dyna Blade]]) in ''Kirby Super Star'', and by completing Revenge of Meta Knight (which requires clearing all previous games) in ''Kirby Super Star Ultra''. It possesses a difficulty level of 5 stars. The stage is mainly notable for requiring [[Kirby]] to collect [[Copy Essence Deluxe|Copy Essences Deluxe]] to receive [[Copy Ability|Copy Abilities]], rather than acquiring them from enemies. | ||

The story begins as Kirby and other onlookers witness the sun and moon of [[Popstar|Pop Star]] fighting endlessly for control of the sky, causing day and night to shift dramatically. As they look on, a small jester named [[Marx]] comes riding in on a ball, telling Kirby that the only way to stop this is to summon the giant comet [[Galactic Nova|Nova]] using energy from the planets | The story begins as Kirby and other onlookers witness the sun and moon of [[Popstar|Pop Star]] fighting endlessly for control of the sky, causing day and night to shift dramatically. As they look on, a small jester named [[Marx]] comes riding in on a ball, telling Kirby that the only way to stop this is to summon the giant comet [[Galactic Nova|Nova]] using energy from the planets in the Milky Way. | ||
Kirby visits seven major planets, collecting a star from each one. Once he has all seven, he uses them to summon the great Comet from beyond space and time. Nova proclaims to Kirby that he may have one wish, but before Kirby can make that wish, Marx appears out of nowhere, bumps Kirby out of the way, and wishes for complete control of Pop Star. Nova grants Marx his wish, as he gloats to Kirby, saying he got the sun and moon to fight in order to steal this opportunity. Both Nova and Marx fly off toward Pop Star, as Kirby is left stranded out in space. Thankfully, the stars he collected coalesce into the [[Starship]], which Kirby uses to make chase. | Kirby visits seven major planets, collecting a star from each one.

Despite this, Milky Way Wishes has a couple of unique mechanics to it. As explained in the [[Beginner's Room]], Kirby is unable to obtain [[Copy Ability|copy abilities]] in a normal fashion for the most part; enemies which normally provide abilities in other modes will grant Kirby nothing when swallowed. Instead, Kirby must find special items in each stage called Copy Essences Deluxe, which permanently grant him access to certain abilities. Once an essence is obtained, the player can choose it from a menu containing all abilities that have been unlocked, and Kirby will automatically be granted the ability selected, allowing him to access locations which require it that he cannot otherwise reach. | Despite this, Milky Way Wishes has a couple of unique mechanics to it.

Milky Way Wishes | In addition, Milky Way Wishes features distinct planets as stages, which can be visited and completed in any order, although a natural order does exist, as outlined in the table in the next section. Each stage prior to the final one contains at least one Copy Essence Deluxe hidden within. While it is not required to collect any of these to complete the game, collecting every essence is required for [[100% completion]]. The main objective Kirby has on each planet is to locate and defeat the boss, and then collect a star from that planet's [[Fountain of Dreams|fountain]]. | ||

While gameplay, stage design, and enemy layout is largely the same between ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', the visuals are quite different between the two, particularly when it comes to cutscenes. Unlike in [[Revenge of Meta Knight]], however, the dialogue spoken in the cutscenes are largely unchanged between the two versions. | While gameplay, stage design, and enemy layout is largely the same between ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'', the visuals are quite different between the two, particularly when it comes to cutscenes.

Like with all other cutscenes, the cutscenes for Milky Way Wishes are handled with spritework in the original game, and with 3-D full-motion video in the remake. As such, cutscenes in the original tend to be quicker and punchier, while scenes in the remake are slower, but more fluid in motion for the most part. | |||
Aside from the more general upgrades in graphics, the sprite-work in Milky Way Wishes also changes more drastically in the remake, giving all bosses different color palettes in addition to the enemy and mid-boss palette changes shared by both versions. Notable examples include [[Twin Woods]] bearing a fall canopy, [[Kracko]] appearing with a light blue hue, and [[Heavy Lobster]] appearing with a silver hauberk instead of gold. | |||

*Despite Kirby's inability to obtain Copy Abilities from most enemies in Milky Way Wishes, there are three enemy types that do yield abilities: [[Bomber]]s, [[Noddy]]s and [[paint]] blobs.
