Starfy (スタフィー) (or "Prince Starfy") is the titular star of his own series. His first Mario-related appearance is in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, although in the form of a cameo. At one point during Densetsu no Stafy 3, Wario assists Starfy on his journey. Prior to the release of The Legendary Starfy, his name overseas was Stafy, after his Japanese name.
Starfy appears as an enemy called a Starfish, with no design changes except for the fact that he wears sunglasses. It describes him, "A star-shaped foe rumored to be the prince of a kingdom". This describes a bit of Starfy while he was a prince. Starfish first appears in the level Hoo's Wood 2-5.
Starfy (using his Japanese name “Stafy”) is featured as an Assist Trophy character. Unlike most other ones, Stafy is vulnerable to taking damage from opponents and being launched out of the stage. To compensate, Stafy can utilize a variety of moves, such as a spin attack. There is also a collectible Trophy of Stafy.
Starfy retains his role as an Assist Trophy. Graphical changes show that the inside of his mouth is a red color rather than yellow and his face changes into an agonized look when he is attacked. He also cameos as a Spirit along with other characters from his home series.
Trivia[]
During an interview with Nintendo, they were asked whether Starfy was a star or starfish. They explained that he is neither.
