<sod>This game introduces Story Mode to the series, in which one player starts a [[campaign (role-playing games)|campaign]] through every board, challenging computer controlled opponents at a shortened version of party mode. The player's objective is to defeat the other characters and earn stamps from the Millennium Star. After all 7 stamps are acquired the player is challenged to a final duel with the Millennium Star, in which the player must hit the Millennium Star 3 times (6 times on Normal difficulty, and 9 times on Hard difficulty) with stars in order to defeat story mode. When this has been accomplished, a title representing the player's overall progress in the game is awarded. If at least 8 "S" ranks are acquired, that character becomes a 'Miracle Star" and the Game Guy Room in the Mini Game House is opened for use. Simply beating the Story Mode and not earning a high title will cause the character's face to be sculpted into the mountain.<eod>
