All-Star Mode
Unlock all 25 characters. When you accomplish this feat, All-Star mode will be unlocked. This mode is alot like the Colleseum mode from Kirby: Super Star, in that you must beat all the characters using limited hearts that you can use between matches in a nice park area. Use them well, because continuing after your character dies costs 10 coins, and I bet you don't want to spend THAT much on continuing.

Captain Falcon's alternate costumes:
