The Legendary Starfy
Nintendo DS · 2009
About this game
It's another peaceful day in the kingdom of Pufftop.
Starfy was having a nap, when all of a sudden, there was a crash and a rabbit in a spacesuit fell through the ceiling! A gang of three villains pursued after the rabbit, but Starfy chased them off.

In the ruckus, the visitor disappeared! Eager to chase after him, Starfy fell into the ocean below, with his buddy Moe following after him.
The Legendary Starfy is a side-scrolling platformer, and the fifth in the series.
Players control the starfish prince, Starfy, as he and Moe explore the ocean looking for Bunston the space rabbit.
Starfy can spin to attack enemies, swim, hop out of water, and float through the air.
Using these abilities, he can explore levels, find secret treasures and hidden exits that lead to alternate paths on the world map.
When he finds Bunston, he can even team up with him to transform into different creatures, such as a fire-breathing monster or a seal.
Throughout the game, there will be opportunities where Starfy's pink sister, Starly, can team up and help.
If you have a friend, you can wirelessly link up and have two players playing co-operatively simultaneously to explore levels.
Starly's abilities differ from Starfy, so she can explore areas where he can't.
The game also features some wireless multiplayer games for up to four players.
Some of these include making Takoyaki balls, hitting coins that are bouncing around for points, and fishing.
About Nintendo DS
The dual-screen, touch-enabled Nintendo DS (2004) became the best-selling handheld of all time, helped by its huge and genre-diverse library. Cartridge-based DS games have held up well physically over 20 years, and complete-in-box copies of the system's biggest sellers (Nintendogs, Pokémon, Mario Kart) remain very accessible for new collectors starting out.
Gamevaro tracks The Legendary Starfy for Nintendo DS with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding The Legendary Starfy to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This NDS release dates back to 2009.

Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
