Games
- Main article: The Legendary Starfy (series)
There are currently a total of five games in The Legendary Starfy series, the first three of which were released for the Game Boy Advance, and the last two have been released for the Nintendo DS. The games sold relatively well in Japan, contributing to the production of sequels. The fifth game, known as The Legendary Starfy (Densetsu no Starfy Taiketsu! Daīru Kaizokudan 伝説のスタフィー たいけつ！ダイール海賊団) was not advertised as a direct sequel, and much of the artwork was designed in a different way to make the characters look like plush dolls. The Legendary Starfy was the first game to be localised into English and sold outside of Japan in North America and Australasia. In the localisation process, there were various localisation changes, for example the manga-style cutscenes were changed to be read from left to right instead of right to left.

Manga
There have been two main series of The Legendary Starfy manga. The first series, simply known as Densetsu no Starfy was based on the events of Densetsu no Starfy, Densetsu no Starfy 2 and Densetsu no Starfy 3. The first two volumes of this manga series were available for purchase in the form of a booklet. It was frequently submitted to issues of CoroCoro Comic from June 2002 (before the official release of the game Densetsu no Starfy in June 2002) until October 2005, and it was illustrated by manga artist Yumiko Sutō. The manga was published by Shogakukan and was officially approved by Nintendo.
The second series, known as Densetsu no Starfy R (伝説のスタフィーR) ran from April 2006 until April 2008, and it was illustrated by Suzuo Yadaka (矢高鈴央, やたか すずお) as a follow up to the original Densetsu no Starfy manga series based on the events of Densetsu no Starfy 4. Densetsu no Starfy R is an abbreviation of Densetsu no Starfy Returns (デンセツノスタフィーリターンズ) and the manga series has often been referred to as such. Like the first series, it was officially approved by Nintendo, published by Shogakukan and submitted to CoroCoro Comic, however only the first issue was available in the form of a booklet.
