The Ancient Minister and the Subspace Bomb

After the Primids are defeated, the Ancient Minister flies into the stadium and drops a Subspace Bomb. Two R.O.B.s activate it as the Minister flies away.

Petey then locks the Princesses in cages, and it is then up to Kirby to save them.

Pit lands somewhere in the Sea of Clouds. He then notices Meta Knight's ship, which once again drops off Primids. As they approach him, Pit splits the Sacred Bow into dual blades and prepares to fight them.

Mario and Pit Meet

After defeating the Primids, Pit begins to survey the landscape. He notices Mario's trophy, which had been knocked there by Petey earlier. Pit revives Mario, who has a quick flashback to the events prior to his trophification. They then team up and continue to travel through the Sea of Clouds.

Donkey Kong and Diddy Kong

Some of Bowser's minions are shown driving off with a huge hoard of bananas. Those who are left behind feel Donkey Kong's wrath. Donkey Kong jumps out of the jungle and notices the minions driving off with the bananas. They fire Bullet Bills at him, only to have them shot down by Diddy Kong. The minions flee the scene with the Kongs in pursuit.

The Dark Cannon Aims for the Kongs

The Kongs find their banana hoard and beat their chests with delight. However, Bowser shows up and crashes their celebration. The Kongs prepare to fight, but Bowser pulls out a Dark Cannon. Not wanting to put Diddy Kong in any danger, Donkey Kong punches Diddy Kong out of the area and takes the Dark Cannon's hit, thus turning himself into a trophy.

The Ancient Minister Escapes Mario and Pit

Mario and Pit catch up to the Ancient Minister, who is holding another Subspace Bomb. Mario jumps for it, but he can't quite reach. Pit jumps off of Mario's head to gain extra height, but he too can't reach it. The Minister escapes with the bomb still intact.

Fox Confronts Rayquaza

Diddy Kong is swinging through the jungle until he comes to a lake. Near the lake's shore, the Arwing that fought the Halberd earlier crashed in that spot. Diddy Kong goes over to investigate, but Rayquaza emerges from the lake. Seeing that Diddy has invaded its territory, it destroys the Arwing and captures him. It seems like the end for Diddy until Fox jumps from the burning Arwing. He performs Fox Illusion and sets Diddy free. Rayquaza tries to hit Fox with an energy blast, but Fox sends it back with his Reflector. It hits Rayquaza and knocks it back into the lake. This then leads into the Boss Battle against Rayquaza.

Diddy Kong Appeals to Fox

Fox and Diddy defeat Rayquaza, but when Fox tries to leave, Diddy pulls him back and tries to make him come with him. Fox ignores him and once again tries to leave, only for Diddy to drag him into the jungle by force.

The Dissolving of the False King Bowser

Fox and Diddy defeat a Shadow Clone of Bowser. Diddy touches it to make sure it's truly in trophy form, but it then dissolves, revealing Shadow Bugs. Suddenly, a Dark Cannon arrow shoots out of the jungle and tries to hit Fox and Diddy. The real Bowser is the culprit, and he shoots at them again. Diddy is willing to fight, but Fox knows that they're no match. He grabs Diddy and jumps off a cliff with him to safety.

The Pig King Statue Targets Lucas

Lucas is seen walking through an abandoned lot. Suddenly, Shadow Bugs drop from the sky and produce Primids. They surround Lucas, who is paralyzed with fear. Then, the Pig King Statue comes to life and begins to chase down Lucas as he runs away.

Ness and Porky Face Off

The Pig King Statue continues to chase Lucas, until Lucas trips over a branch that is stuck in the ground. He tries to free himself, but fails to do so. Just when it seems like the Statue will crush Lucas, Ness targets a PK Thunder towards it, which promptly knocks it to the ground. Ness then reveals himself on camera and prepares to fight the Statue. It gets up and takes to the skies, while Ness also jumps up and activates PK Flash. The attack shatters the Statue and reveals Porky Minch himself underneath. Ness wipes the sweat off his forehead and prepares to fight while Lucas gets back up.

Lucas Leaves Ness

Lucas catches up with Ness after they defeat Porky, only to find Wario looking down on them from a cliff. Wario laughs and aims the Dark Cannon at Ness. He fires, but Ness is able to dodge the shot. Wario fires several more times, but Ness dodges every shot. Realizing that Ness is too hard to hit, he sets his sights on Lucas. Ness pushes Lucas out of the way and takes the shot himself. Wario observes Ness' trophy while it rains, cackling madly. Lucas runs away, looking behind himself one more time as he does so. Lucas then bumps into the Pokémon Trainer some time later, who is about to take on a hoard of Primids. He summons Squirtle and prepares to fight them.

Lucas Joins the Pokemon Trainer

After defeating the Primids, the Trainer calls back Squirtle and bids Lucas farewell. Lucas, however, is determined to save Ness, and he joins the Trainer on his journey.

The Battlefield Fortress

An empty battlefield with a ruined castle in the background appears. Two R.O.B.s show up and prepare to detonate another Subspace Bomb. They hang their heads as the bomb explodes, engulfing them in Subspace. From atop the ruined castle, Marth notices this, and he also sees a hoard of Primids approaching. Marth unsheathes Falchion and prepares to defend the castle.

The Meta Knight Encounter

Marth makes it to the Subspace Portal and stares at it. While he observes it, he notices a glimmer of light from the corner of his eye. Meta Knight charges in and attacks Marth, but Marth is able to block all his attacks. Meta Knight charges once more, and an epic fencing match then ensues. During the battle, Primids try to attack them, but Meta Knight and Marth are able to slice them in half. Realizing that the Primids are the real enemies, Meta Knight and Marth stand back-to-back and prepare to fight off the Primids.

Ike Unleashes Aether

Meta Knight and Marth chase after the Ancient Minister, who is carrying another Subspace Bomb. Marth tries to slice it, but he misses. Meta Knight flies towards it, but the Minister shoots his wings and forces him to drop back down. Suddenly, Ragnell is seen floating behind the Minister, and Ike jumps up and performs Aether to destroy the Subspace Bomb (oddly, he shouts "Great Aether!" instead of "Aether!"). As a result, the Minister is sent flying away. Ike then joins the other warriors on their journey.

Three Warriors and the Ancient Minister

Ike, Meta Knight, and Marth continue to chase the Minister, but the path ends at a cliff, and the Minister is able to escape.

King Dedede Steals Peach/Zelda

A Waddle Dee is seen walking down a path. A cowardly Luigi stands in a battle ready pose, but the Waddle Dee just glances at him and walks away. Another Waddle Dee walks up and startles Luigi, prompting him to enter the same battle ready pose again. However, King Dedede walks up and strikes Luigi from behind with his hammer, turning him into a trophy with one hit. Dedede dusts off his new trophy, and then prepares to ambush Wario as he drives up the road. As expected, Wario stops his Cargo and nabs Luigi's trophy. However, a huge army of Waddle Dees surrounds him and forces him to drop the trophy. Dedede reclaims it, and he also hijacks Wario's Cargo with his trophies in tow. As Dedede and the Waddle Dees retreat, Wario jumps up and down in anger.

Link Draws the Master Sword

Link is walking through the forest with his fairy. He notices the Master Sword in its stone pedestal. He grasps the handle of it and gives it a tug. He draws it out and points it to the sky.

The Subspace Army In the Forest

As Link and his fairy continue to travel through the forest, Yoshi is seen sleeping on an empty stump. He wakes up for a second, but then goes back to sleep. Link then notices the Halberd as it drops off more Primids in the forest. Link prepares to fight them, and Yoshi wakes up to help Link.

Link Loses the Battleship Halberd

Link and Yoshi pursue the Halberd, but they lose it when it flys too far away. Link notices another route and goes down it with Yoshi right behind him.

Snake's Cardboard Box

Snake is seen in his cardboard box on the inside of the Halberd. He shakes the box a little.

Zero Suit Samus Infiltrates

In a darkened room, Samus clambers down from an air vent in the ceiling. She looks around for danger, armed with her paralyzer, then proceeds.

The Pikachu Generator

Samus enters a room, ready to attack. The door closes behind her. Suddenly, she hears a noise, and sees a power generator with a Pikachu trapped inside. She notices that the Pikachu's electrical energy is being used by the generator, so she breaks it and rescues the Pokemon. An alarm goes off, promting an army of R.O.B.s to come in. Samus and Pikachu get ready to fight.
