'''Starfy''' is the name of the hero of [[wikipedia:The Legendary Starfy (series)|''The Legendary Starfy'' series]], known as ''Densetsu no Stafy'' in Japan and originally released in this region only since 2002. The fifth game was released on June 8, 2009 in North America under the name ''The Legendary Starfy''.<ref>[http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/emzhNTUrIKERPORLjoM0Nmqltc2F9zVm ''The Legendary Starfy'' on Nintendo.com]</ref> Previously, he was referred to as by his Japanese name '''Stafy''' in English media.

The ''Starfy'' series itself was created by [[TOSE]], a second-party video game developing company of [[Nintendo]]. He has made four cameos in [[Mario (series)|''Mario'']] or ''Mario''-related games; some ''Mario'' characters also appear in Starfy's games.

==History==
===''Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga''===
[[Image:Lolzstaffylookscute.png|thumb|The Starfy poster inside the Yoshi Theater.]]
In ''[[Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'', Starfy made a cameo appearance on a movie poster in the [[Yoshi Theater]].

===''Super Princess Peach''===
In ''Super Princess Peach'', Starfy makes a cameo as the enemy known as "[[Starfish]]".  The game's Glossary even describes him as "A star-shaped foe rumored to be the prince of a kingdom?"

===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
Starfy also appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', as an [[Assist Trophy]] character. However, unlike most Assist Trophies, Starfy is vulnerable to opposing attacks, and can be sent flying out of the stage easily. He makes up for this with strong attacks, as well as a wide range of moves, such as a spin attack, and a fiery explosion.

====''Densetsu no Stafy 3''====

Also, in ''Densetsu no Stafy 3'', [[Wario]] makes a cameo appearance in [[World]] 8. Throughout this world, Wario assists Starfy with completing the levels, giving the player four different treasures - a "Wario cap", a Wario nose/moustache combo, a copy of [[WarioWare, Inc.]] with a Game Boy Advance, and a pile of gold. In each level, Wario is affected by one of his three more common status effects - [[Puffy Wario]], [[Flaming Wario]] and [[Bubble Wario]], all of which Wario uses to help Starfy complete the level.

====''Densetsu no Stafy 4''====

In ''Densetsu no Stafy 4'', one of the collectable costumes for Starfy and his sister Starly (Stapy in Japan) is based on [[Princess Peach]]. Starly is also holding [[Perry]], the parasol from ''Super Princess Peach''. This costume is one of the winners of a costume designing contest hold in Japan for fans.
