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.
