'''Megaton Punch''' is a sub-game in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and a nostalgic sub-game in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]''. This mini-game pits [[Kirby]] against three opponents in a challenge to strike the blocks the hardest. Strong punches will crack much more than the targeted blocks, with even [[Pop Star]] being cracked (nearly in half).

'''Megaton Punch''' is one of the [[Sub-Game]]s in ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'', and it later returned in ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]'' as one of the two unlockable nostalgic sub-games, the other being [[Samurai Kirby]]. This mini-game pits [[Kirby]] against a series of three opponents in a challenge to strike the blocks the hardest. Strong punches will crack much more than the targeted blocks, with even [[Popstar|Pop Star]] being cracked (nearly in half). Up to two players can play the sub-game.
 
In ''Kirby Super Star Ultra'', Megaton Punch was directly ported from the original release. The only differences from the original version is that two-player support was dropped and it has to be unlocked by defeating all 19 bosses and mid-bosses in [[The Arena]] first.
 
A demo of Megaton Punch was also broadcast in the Japan exclusive ''[[Kirby's Toy Box]]''.


==Gameplay==
==Gameplay==
Three levels of difficulty are offered with the only difference being how high the opponents will score. A set of three meters will determine the strength of the players' punch. The first is a rising and falling bar meter that gives a harder hit when activated at the top. Secondly, a pair of cross-hairs will rotate and occasionally blend together. Activating while the centers are overlapping yields the hardest punch. Lastly, a pendulum will swing past a targeted circle, which rewards a harder strike for activating while dead-center.
