-[ 1. UPDATES ]-
V-1.1 [11/29/04]
A good chunk of the walkthrough finished and ready to go,
and some other sections started.
V-1 [11/23/04]
First Version! Everything started and ready to be worked on.
-[ 2. INTRO/STATEMENT ]-
Hey all! I'd like to say thank you for using my FAQ/Walkthrough. I've
only started this, but I plan to put a lot of work in to complete it. As you
all probably know, this is basically a port of the Nintendo 64 game Super
Mario 64. Its not just a port though, it has a lot of new levels, stars
to collect, and features, like four playable characters. I've only started
the game myself, but I'll be adding to the walkthrough as I go through it.
Good luck to everyone, and hopefully my guide gets someone out of trouble.
^^
-[ 3. CHARACTERS ]-
-3.1 Playable Characters-
-----YOSHI-----
The starting character, you will have to play Yoshi until you get 8
stars and unlock Mario. Because he cant punch, Yoshi is weaker than other
characters in the power department. However, he can swallow all kinds of
things and turn them into eggs to throw.
SPECIAL MOVES;
Swallowing [A] - Swallow enemies and certian objects.
Flutter Kick [Press and hold B] - Hold yourself in the air for a few seconds
while jumping.
Fire Power [Power Flower] - When Yoshi gets a Power Flower, he can breathe
fire by pressing A. Can not be used normally.
Eggs [R or A] - When Yoshi's mouth is full, press [R] to lay an egg or press
[A] to spit out the swallowed object.
Power -
Speed - XX
Jump - XXX
Yoshi is a good beginner character and good to start of controls with. You
will probably be playing the other characters more often later in the
game though.
-----MARIO-----
You can unlock Mario once you get 8 stars.
Mario has a balanced set of moves. Though Luigi and Yoshi have better
jumping skills, Mario makes upfor them by being able to float.
SPECIAL MOVES;
Wall Kick [B+B] - To preform a wall kick, jump toward the wall, and jump
again as you hit it.
Floating Power [Power Flower] - When Mario gets a Power Flower, he
becomes a balloon and can float to high places. Float up by pressing [B]
repeatedly. Control his direction with the [D-Pad].
Wings [Feather] - When Mario gets wings, he can take to the skies. Take
off by preforming a triple jump. Control with the [D-Pad].
Power - XX
Speed - XX
Jump - XX
The classic character, everyones favorite and average with everything.
If you have played the 64 version you will probably be most comfortable
with Mario, since he has mostly the same controls.
-----LUIGI-----
Luigi's major strength is his agility. However, his lack of power makes
heavy lifting difficult.
SPECIAL MOVES;
Invisibility Power [Power Flower] - When Luigi gets a Power Flower, he
becomes invisible for a short time. When hes invisible, Luigi can run right
through many enemies and objects.
Scuttle [B] - Hold [B].. not sure what this does.
Backward Somersault [R+B] - Press [R], then [B] to preform a backward
somersault. [Any character can do this.]
Water Run [D-Pad+Y] - Luigi can run on the water for a short time by
running toward the water and jumping.
Power - X
Speed - XX
Jump - XXX
I haven't unlocked Luigi yet, but he seems to have some nice abilitys and
good jumping.
-----WARIO-----
Though hes lacking in the speed and agility departments [not to mention
smarts], when you need a little muscle, Warios your man! His powerful
moves can break objects and beat up enemies.
SPECIAL MOVES;
Wario Whack [A] - Use this powerful move to break things the other
characters can't.
Metal Power [Power Flower] - When Wario gets a Power Flower, he'll
turn into metal. For a while, he'll become invincible to enemy attacks and
able to walk on the sea floor.
Swing and Fling [A+D-Pad+A] - Grab enemy and swing around with the [D-Pad],
press [A] to release. You can use this move only in VS mode.
POWER - XXX
Speed - X
Jump - X
I haven't unlocked Wario yet, but his Wario Whack and Metal Power look very
useful.
-3.2 Other Characters-
-----PEACH-----
The princess that Mario is always there to rescue, and always seems to get
everyone else in a lot of trouble.
-----LAKITU-----
The camera dude that flies around you all the time. Sometimes there are evil
Lakitus in certian levels that like to throw spiked Koopa shells at you!
More to be added...

-[ 4. WALKTHROUGH ]-
Once you start the game up, you can play around with Mario's face, kind
of like how you do it in the origional version. You can also draw your
own picture and mess with it. From here you have three options;
VS - Play with other people, and I belive you only need 1 game card!
You can practice by yourself, too. I haven't tried this out with anyone
else yet.
ADVENTURE - The core of the game, the adventure. 150 stars to collect
and plenty of new stuff added to the origional!
REC ROOM - The mini games, which are actually pretty fun. See
[Section 5].
Select [ADVENTURE] and your on your way!
-----
-4.1//THE BEGINNING-
Finally, we get to the good stuff!
The game starts off a lot like the 64 version, the graphics have actually
improved and a few of the sounds have been re-recorded, like Peach's intro
speech. The obvious change is that you see Mario, Luigi, and Warioarriving
in the warp pipes instead of just Mario, and you start off as Yoshi. The
Mario Bros. play around a bit, and run into the castle. The camera moves
to the top of the castle, where you see Yoshi sleeping.
Once you have control of Yoshi, run to the castle. The door is locked.
Lakitu says that a rabbit took off with the key to the door. Look on the
touch screen for a key icon and go to it. Its easy to catch, just press
[B] to swallow the rabbit when your behind it or its coming toward you,
then it will give up the key and you can unlock the door.
Once your inside the castle, you will get a strange message. Don't pay any
attention to it. Go to your left and climb the small set of stairs. Go
through the door with a blank star on it. This is the only level you will
have access to. Go into the door and you will see a picture of Bob-ombs
on the wall. Jump into it, this is the first level of the game.
-4.2//CASTLE PT.1
-PART A//BOB-OMB BATTLEFIELD-
STAR 1 - Big Bob-omb on the Summit
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Yoshi
Requirements - None
Your first challenge. Obviously the red Bob-ombs are harmless, but watch
out for the black ones, they will chase after you and explode. Watch out
for the Goombas [the orange mushroom type things], they will attack you.
Jump on them or swallow them. After killing the Goombas, run up the bridge
straight ahead. Take a left, following the path. Watch out for the Chain
Chomp [the big black thing with teeth], stay close to the fence and you
will be safe. Run across the bridge. Watch out, it tips, so go quickly.
Head up the little set of stairs and go towards the right, following the
arrows. Water bombs are shot around this area, so keep moving so you don't
get hit by any. Theres some Bob-ombs too. Once you get next to the
mountain, you should see a pit with 2 black balls rolling around in it.
Run though here, try not to get hit, and work your way up the mountain.
Dodge the ballsrolling down on the way up. Make sure you make it over
the gaps, the flutter kick might be useful here. If your missing any health,
walk though the spinning heart to recover it. Now finish running up to
the top and...
BOSS BATTLE!!!
Big Bob-omb
Difficulty - *
Walk up to him and listen to his little speech, then get a little distance.
He will start throwing little bob-ombs at you, which immediately start
chasing you. Swallow them and spit them back at the Big Bomb-omb. Don't
get to close or he will throw you. After you spit the bomb back at him, he
will start bouncing around. Make sure you don't get crushed. If you hold the
bomb for too long, it will explode in your mouth, so also watch out for that.
After you hit him with bombs three times, he will explode and you will earn
your first star. Good job!
NOTE: You can enter the Rec Room upstairs, which has a couple rooms in it,
and you can go to Whomp's Fortress which is the door downstairs with a 1
inside a Star on it.
STAR 2 - Footrace with Koopa the Quick
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Yoshi
Requirements - Star 1 Completed
Koopa the Quick wants to have a race with Mario, but hes no where to be
found. So you have to impersonate Mario, but first you have to find a red
cap. Talk to the Red Bob-omb by Koopa [the thing with a shell] and it will
tell you where the cap is. Its easier to go straight and get the red cap
from the Goomba walking around. Once you turn into Mario, then go back to
Koopa, and he will ask you to race. The goal is to get to the top of the
mountain, where the Big Bob-omb was before Koopa gets there. Just follow
the path I described before. Make sure you don't get hit by any enemies,
or you will lose the Mario cap and you'll have to find another Mario cap
or Koopa won't give you the star, even if you win. It might take a couple
tries, but its fairly easy.
STAR 3 - 5 Silver Stars!
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Yoshi
Requirements - Stars 1-2 Completed
Anyone who has played the 64 version should remember that theres no silver
stars. This is a new level, making 7 stars available for each level, and
another annoying red-coin type mission. The stars all show up on the touch
screen map, so this is pretty easy. But of you get hit, you lose a star and
have to go chasing after it. Heres the stars you have to collect;
In no paticular order;
Star 1 - Above a tree near the start of the level, by the Goombas. Just
climb to the top of the tree and jump.
Star 2 - On the Chain Chomp's chain, the Chomb is loose and running around
the area across the first bridge. As long as you stay behing the Chomp,
theres no danger.
Star 3 - Held by a Goomba in the fenced in area.
Star 4 - Sitting openly in a patch of flowers in the bottom left corner of
the course.
Star 5 - Held by another Goomba a little ways up the mountain.
Once you collect all 5, go get the star which appears next to the entrance
zone. Happy hunting!
NOTE: You obviously have 3 stars by now, so you can go to any of the 3 Star
rooms on the bottom floor. These are a bit harder!
STAR 4 - Big Bob-Omb's Revenge
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Yoshi
Requirements - Stars 1-3 Completed
This level is similar to the first one, but the battle is a little different.
Its still very easy. Just go up the mountian again. You need to be Mario
though, because you have to be able to pick the Big Bob-omb up and throw him.
The red cap is held by a Goomba somewhere on the mountain. Watch out while
going up the mountain, at certian spots Bob-ombs will drop and chase after
you until they explode. Once your at the top...
BOSS BATTLE!!!
Big Bob-omb [Again!]
Difficulty - *
Dont get to close, or he will throw you like he did before. Hes pretty slow,
so just run behind him, pick him up, and chuck him. Do this 3 times and the
star is yours. Easy, eh? He explodes and you get yet another star!
STAR 5 - Mario Wings To The Sky
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - Mario, Wing Cap
NOTE: For this level you will need Mario, and the Wing Cap. You cant get
Mario until you have 8 stars, and the Wing Cap until you have 10, so come back
to this level after you have 10 stars and you beat the challenges to unlock
Mario and the Wing Cap.
Make sure you talk to the Red Bob-omb as you enter the level so he prepare
the cannons for you. Make your way up to the mountain until you get to the
cannon you can use thats closest to the top. Hop in, and shoot towards the
floating island. Aim for the red coin, and you shouldn't fly off or past it.
Grab the Wing Cap, and jump in the cannon. Aim for the center coins. You
should get the first 3 no problem. The next 2 are harder, you have to pull
up at the right time, which seems to be around the second coin. Once you
get all the 5 center coins, a star will appear in the fenced in area.
STAR 6 - Find the 8 Red Coins
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
Ah... the classic red coin level, this ones a lot easier compared to some
other ones
Coin 1 - On the lift near the first bridge.
Coin 2 - On a large rock straight ahead of the first bridge.
Coin 3 - On the Chain Chomp's post.
Coin 4 - Openly in the fenced in area full of Goombas.
Coin 5 - Near Coin #5.
Coin 6 - Under the stone bridge leading to the mountain.
Coin 7 - On the hill past the first arrow sign.
Coin 8 - Above a tree on the floating island.
Very easy!
STAR 7 - Behind Chain Chomp's Gate
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Yoshi
Requirements - None
This level is very easy if you use Yoshi, he can paralyze the Chain Chomp
with his eggs, therefore making it unable to move and the post wide open.
You can do this with Mario too, just not as easily. You just have to ground
pound the Chain Chomp's post, then he will be set free and he will
STAR 8 - Collect 100 Coins
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - None
This doesn't actually appear on the menu, and you can do this in every
level. Just collect 100 coins. This is easy in this level, the coins are
plentiful. They are just lying around, and you can kill monsters and crush
blocks for them too. Good luck and happy coin collecting!
-PART B//WHOMP'S FORTRESS-
STAR 1 - Chip Off Whomp's Block
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Yoshi
Requirements - 1 Star
Ah, a new level! And an easy one at that. To sneak by the plants, just
use the touch screen to walk softly. Once you unlock Mario, you can just
punch them to get rid of them. On this level you have to make it to the
top of Whomp's Fortress, and then defeat the Giant Whomp in the boss
battle.
To skip some extra travel time, you can just backflip up on the ledge at
the start of the level, where the stone wall is. Follow the trail of coins
up the stone wall, then sneak by the plant. Watch out for the bridge, the
stones fall after you cross. There will be a board that will bring you
around. Go to the middle, otherwise you will be pushed off by the stone
block. Keep heading up the castle. You can climb the flag pole for an extra
life. Don't worry about the Whomps, they are dumb and slow. You can simply
walk right by them. If you climb up the flag pole you can just jump off
and flutter kick to the top, or you can take the lift. Either way works.
BOSS BATTLE!!!
Giant Whomp
Difficulty - *
This one is easy. Just stand in front of the Whomp until he starts falling
down. Quickly get out of his way so you don't get smashed, then jump on his
back and do a Ground Pound. Do this three times and hes done! The star is
yours.
NOTE: If you have collected 4 of the Bob-omb Battlefield stars, and 3 of
the secret stars, you can now unlock Mario. Woohoo! But you might as well
get some more stars while you can.
STAR 2 - To The Top of the Fortress
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Yoshi
Requirements - Star 1 Completed
Yoshi is probably better for this than Mario, because he can flutter
kick and it lessens the chances of falling off the fortress.
This level is simple, just go to the top of the fortress. You'll notice
that there is a new tower, just jump up on the ledges. Watch out for the
bullets that are shot at you if you walk in front of the cannon type-thing.
Be careful, because every other ledge goes in and out. Yoshi can simply
flutter kick over these. The last one is a lift up to the top, where a star
is waiting for you. Easy!
STAR 3 - Shoot Into the Wild Blue
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Any
Requirements - Stars 1-2 Completed
Backflip up the ledge and head left. Talk to the red Bob-omb and he
will prepare the cannon for you. Go into the cannon, aim carefully.
The pole where you got the extra life before, aim for the very bottom of
that. You should grab the smaller pole where the star is if you aim right.
Slide down and collect your star. This level is easy except for it might
take a couple tries to aim right.
NOTE: You probably have 10 stars by now. You can finally unlock the Wing
Cap and go back to complete Bob-omb Battlefield!
STAR 4 - Red Coins on the Floating Isle
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - Mario
You need Mario for this level, so if you haven't unlocked him already,
then do so! See Section 4.2D, Unlocking Mario and the Wing Cap.
The coins are scattered about the world, heres basically where they are,
in no certian order...
Coin 1 - Above one of the blocks that push out, on the way to the top
of the castle.
Coin 2 - Above the Thwomp closest to the top of the stone stairs.
Coin 3 - On the side in a patch of flowers, watch out for the Pirana
Plants.
Coin 4 - Behind a Pirana Plant, you have to sneak by to get it.
Coin 5 - On a ledge near Coin #4.
Coin 6 - On the thing that brings you around across the gap.
Coin 7 - On one of the floating islands, kick the board down to make a
bridge to them.
Yoshi can't kick the board down, so Mario must be unlocked.
Coin 8 - On the highest floating isle.
The star appears near the beginning of the level, on the blue star on
the ground. Good luck!
STAR 5 - Fall Onto the Caged Island
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - Stars 1-4 Completed
When you appear on the level, theres an owl in the tree right next to you.
Climb up the tree and the owl will fly out. Jump up and when it grabs you,
hold B and steer over to the caged island. When you are directly above it
let go of B and collect the star.
STAR 6 - Blast Away The Wall
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
This ones simple, just get into the cannon and aim for the corner of
the wall. You will break it and a star will pop out. Go back to the
cannon and aim for the star, and your done!
STAR 7 - Switch Star of the Fortress
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - Star 1-6 Completed
Another pretty easy one. Just go around the side, below where the blocks
on the level above you push you off, and there is a block. You need Mario
unlocked so you can break the block. Under the block, there is a star
switch. Run around to the other side, where the star is in a crystal ball.
Break it open to get the star. Your timed, so move quickly. You should have
plenty of time to spare.
STAR 8 - 100 Coins
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
Coins are plentiful in this level. Just go around getting all the coins
you see, it shouldn't take much time and is easy. Make sure you collect
the red coins, which are worth 2 coins, and kill the Pirana Plants for 5
coins each.
-Part C//UNLOCKING MARIO AND THE WING CAP-
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Yoshi
Requirements - 8 Stars
Unlocking Mario is fairly easy, but the Goombas get extremely
annoying in the level you have to enter! To get there, go to the
Rec Room, and in that room theres a door that requires you to have
8 stars to enter. Go inside, and jump on the painting of Mario to
enter the "Goomboss Battle". You can collect red coins and step on
the star switch to get 2 extra stars in this level, but you might
want to save that untillater.
To fight the Goomboss and unlock Mario, you need to get to the top
of this strange place, and jump in a hole. The boss battle is kind of
tough at first, so have plenty of extra lives. On your map, you should
see a red X on top of a big tree trunk. This is where you need to go.
Follow the paths and dont step off the sides, and you should be fine.
Find your way around until you get to the place where there is one of
those biting plants, and a evil Lakitu. Swallow one of the spike balls
he throws, and make a egg of it. Chuck it at the plant. Jump on the
stump and climb up the vine, Then go up the ladder, dont forget about
the Goombas. Sneak by the plant, walk through the heart, and jump into
the hole in the tree trunk to enter the battle. Don't worry about dying
as long as you dont lose all your lives, you don't have to do the
whole level over.
BOSS BATTLE!!!
Goomboss
Difficulty - ***
This guy seems kind of crazy... just look at his eyes!
Get behind him and swallow one of the Goombas, you might want to kill
the other ones because they will attack you. Spit it at Goomboss.
He will get bigger. Get behind him again, and repeat. After the 3rd
time you will get the key to unlock Mario's room. Try not to take too
much damage from the Goombas, because it will happen and you will end
up dying. Try not to get trampeled or fall into the poison either. If
your careful, then this level is pretty easy. It took me a few tries
to beat it the first time.
Good job! Don't forget to save. Go back outside the Rec Room, and to
the door with the M on it. Your finally Mario again! If you ever want
to switch back to Yoshi, just go back into Mario's room.
If you have 10 stars, then go to the main part of the castle, where
theres a sun rug in front of the stairs. Make sure you get a star
from each of the levels so far. Stand in the middle, and press X,
then look up. Fly down to the top of the tower, and ground pound above
it for an easy landing. Step on the red switch to unlock the Wing Cap.
You can also collect 8 red coins here for a star!
Now go back and beat those Bob-omb Battlefield and Whomp's Fortress
levels you were stuck on before.
-PART D//JOLLY ROGER BAY
STAR 1 - Pluder In the Sunken Ship
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - 3 Stars
Oh yay, a water level. Make sure you don't stay under water for too
long, or you will die!
You will probably automatically notice a star on the touch screen map.
You need to swim there, because thats where the sunken ship is. Yes,
you have to go under water. When you reach the area above the star on
the map, you should dive underwater. The ship is obvious. On the top
of the ship theres a black hole which you need to enter, but theres an
eel in it. Go near the eel to draw it out, and then go into the ship.
Once your in the ship, just open the treasure chest, if you need power
just collect coins. The water will drain out and you get your star prize
at the top!
STAR 2 - Can the Eel Come Out to Play?
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - Star 1 Completed
Back to Jolly Roger Bay... You'll notice that theres a star way across the
lake. You have to swim way over there and dive underwater. You will see the
eel's head sticking out. Swim near it, and it will swim out of its hole.
Stay a bit away from it and you will not get damaged. The star will be
attached to the eel's tail. Just swim to it and it will let go, then get
the star.
STAR 3 - Treasure In The Ocean Cave
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - Star 1-2 Completed
When you enter the level, you see a star way across the screen. Yes, you have
to swim through an underwater cave. Swim to the long cave on the map. The eel
will be swimming around, so watch out. Once your inside the cave, pillars
will fall so watch out for those too. I'm not sure if its random or not,
but heres the order in which I opened the chests. If you get it wrong you
get shocked and lose 1 power bar.
1 - The north chest
2 - The west chest
3 - The east chest
4 - The south chest
When you open them all, a star will appear out of the fourth one.
STAR 4 - Blast to the Stone Pillar
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
There is a star on a ledge on the side, marked by a star on the touch screen
map. You have to find a way to get there. The name gives a hint, but is only
part of what you have to do. You actually have to blast to one of the tall
skinny rocks and from the top, jump off and onto the ledge. But you cant use
the cannon until you talk to the Red Bob-omb, which is on one of the stone
platforms in the water.
Once the cannon is activated, go into it and aim towards the star on the
touch screen. Aim for the top of the second closest to the rock wall. [Aim
a bit above it, so you dont land too low.] You should grab onto it, climb
to the top and turn around so your facing opposite of the platform with
the star. You should be able to aim towards it and press [A] to jump off and
land on it. You also get a free 1UP mushroom! Good luck!
STAR 5 - Red Coins On the Ship Afloat
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
This red coin mission boasts a bit more of a challenge than the previous
ones. Ah well, heres the locations.
Coin 1 - On top of a pillar near the start of the level, shoot to it with
the cannon.
Coin 2 - On the very front of the ship.
Coin 3 - On the back of the ship.
Coin 4 - Next to coin 3.
Coin 5 - In a clam shell in the bottom of the deep water pool.
Coin 6 - In a clam shell in the area near the entrance on the upper level.
Coin 7 - In a clam shell in the mid level.
Coin 8 - In a clam shell in the lower level.
Coins 6-8 are all pretty much near eachother. It doesn't make much sense
now, but when you look it will. Careful, the clams do hurt you, and it
causes you to run out of air faster. I died a couple times because of this.
Other than that, this level isn't too bad. The star appears on the boat.
STAR 6 - Switch Star of the Bay
Difficulty - *

-PART E//COOL COOL MOUNTAIN
STAR 1 - Slip Slidin' Away
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Any
Requirements - 3 Stars
The ice level... As you enter, you will get a message. Enter the house
via the chimmeny, and slide down the icy maze. Be careful not to fall
off the edges, and stay away from the corners, they like to suck you in!
If you go too fast, its harder to control, but if you go too slow then
its harder to get past the corners. Watch out for the little strip at
the end also, its a bit narrow. Once you get to the bottom, exit the
cabin and a star will appear. Take your prize!
STAR 2 - Li'l Penguin Lost
Difficulty - **

STAR 3 - Big Penguin Race
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Any
Requirements - Stars 1-2 Completed
This is like Star 1... except you have to beat the big penguin. You have to
go faster, so theres more of a chance for you to slip off, and its hard enough
to begin with. Ah well, good luck! Not much else I can say. Oh, and if hes
close behind you his butt likes to get in the camera. Its annoying. Make sure
you don't go out the door, or you won't get your star. [I learned the hard
way!]
STAR 4 - Frosty Slide for 8 Red Coins
STAR 5 -
STAR 6 -
STAR 7 -
STAR 8 - Find 100 Coins!
-PART F//BIG BOO'S HAUNT
STAR 1 - Go On a Ghost Hunt
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - None
This level is very strange and kind of freaky. The attacking pianos is what
gets me. To earn the first star, you have to kill all the small boos inside
the house. Theres 1 or 2 in most of the rooms. Kill them by running up
behind them and punching them. [Which is why you need Mario for this.] Once
you kill them all, "Big Boo" will appear in the big room with all the doors
in it. Go behind him and punch him 3 times, and he will give up the star.
STAR 2 - Ride Big Boo's Merry-Go-Round
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - Star 1 Completed
Head to the little shed, and ride the lift to go downstairs. Enter the room
where the wierd music is coming from. 5 Boos will come out of the painting.
After you kill them all, Big Boo will appear. The battle is the same as before,
just punch him 3 times in the back and he will give you another star.
STAR 3 - Secret of the Haunted Books
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - Stars 1-2 Completed
Head to the mansion once again. Go up the large stairs that appeared after
you got STAR 1. Go to the first door on the left wall. You should be in a
big library. Watch out for the books that shoot out at you. Make your way
down and around the corner, then go up. Three books should be sticking out
on the shelf. You have to touch these books in a certian order. You can hit
them by punching or jumping [hitting them with your head]. The order goes
like this..
[ 1 ]
[ 3 ]
[ 2 ]
The bookcase will slide away, letting you through to the door on the other
side. Go in the door. There is a star on the balcony. Simply jump up and
grab it.
STAR 4 - Seek the 8 Red Coins
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - Star 1 Completed
Another red coin level. Exciting.
Coin 1 - On the first room to the left, behind the evil piano.
Coin 2 - On the second room to the left, on a bookcase.
Coin 3 - Same as #2, on a different bookcase.
Coin 4 - On the first room to the right, on a ledge.
Coin 5 - Upstairs, in the room with all the red mesh.
Coin 6 - In the room with the coffins, under the first one on the right.
Coin 7 - Upstairs, in the room on the right wall. Watch out for the floor,
it tips.
Coin 8 - Above the main room, use Mario's floating power to get it. There
is a power flower on the balcony connected to the room where you get coin #7.
STAR 5 - Big Boo's Balcony
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - Stars 1-4 Completed
Go upstairs and to the door on the very right. Look up and you will see a
hidden ledge. Grab the Power Flower [as Mario] and float up to it. Go out
the door and you'll notice a Luigi painting. Here is where you unlock
Luigi, see PART G.
Go out the door, and you will have to fight Big Boo again. This is harder
though, your on a small balcony and if you fall off you have to go all the
way back up. Once you punch him twice, he gets really fast and its hard not
to get hit or turn around in time to punch him. Frustrating! But once you
defeat him, its worth it. Once hes gone, grab the Power Flower and float
to the top of the roof where the star appears.
STAR 6 - Eye to Eye in the Secret Room
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Luigi
Requirements - Stars 1-5 Completed
You need Luigi for this mission, so if you havent unlocked him, then go do
it. [See PART G] Go upstairs to the last room on the right. Grab the Power
Flower to turn invisible, and backflip onto the secret platform where you
go for STAR 5. Luigi's agility is nice, eh?
Quickly run into the Boo painting in this room, and kill the Boo to get it
out of the way. Run around the big eye until it dies. This is the easiest
boss in history. Grab the star and your done.
STAR 7 - Switch Star in the Basement
STAR 8 - Collect 100 Coins
-PART G//UNLOCKING LUIGI-
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - Stars 1-4 of Big Boo's Haunt
Look at the instructions for STAR 5 of Big Boo's Haunt. Follow the directions
until you see the Luigi painting. Jump into it and you will enter "Big Boo's
Battle". Enter the door where the strange laughing is coming from. If you
enter the wrong door you'll just go back to the Merry-Go-Round. Once in
here, enter the next door the laughing is coming from. Basically follow the
laughing until you get to the room with a large bridge of falling bricks
and a star icon. Quickly run across and go up the lifts. Jump into the
hole. You will be in a strange room with a mirror of yourself. Suddenly the
reflection turns into Luigi, and Big Boo appears.
BOSS BATTLE
Big Boo
Difficulty - ***
This battle is confusing... He dissappears and appears in either side of the
mirror. You have to punch him from behind, if you can find him. If you stand
in one spot, he will blow blue flames at you. Sometimes he only appears in
the mirrors reflection, and sometimes only in Mario's side. Either way,
quickly turn around when hes near you and punch him. After 3 punches hes
history. Hes fast and will chase you, so watch out. Once hes gone, you get
the Luigi key and can finally unlock Luigi!
-PART H//THE FIRST BOWSER FIGHT-
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Mario
Requirements - 8 Stars
What you've been waiting for! The first bowser fight. Go to the door upstairs
in the main castle room that has a big star on it. If you have 8 Stars, it
should open. You'll see a painting of Peach, and a long red carpet. As you
get closer, the painting turns into a painting of Bowser, and you fall into
a trap door.
You have entered "Bowser In The Dark World". This level is full of tricks
and traps to keep you from getting to Bowser. But hes not very smart, so
its easy to make it through. Its pretty straightforward.
There is a red block near the beginning that gives you a Power Flower, but
there isn't really a use for it. You can step on a switch but I'm not sure
what it does.
On the platform with the 3 Goombas there is an extra life in the box, don't
forget to grab it. Watch out for the things that shock you on the way up.
If you want to, you can collect the red coins, or you can just save it for
later.
Watch out for the blue platforms, they tip when you step on them, which you
can use to your advantage to get to the next one. Or you could just go
around and get the 2 1UP mushrooms. Step on the switch to make the checker
board thing turn into stairs.
Now your at the top. There is a star switch here that you can do later.
Jump into the warp pipe...
BOSS FIGHT!!!
Bowser
Difficulty - *
Bowsers looking chubbier than ever! Hes slow, so walk in front of him. When
he starts breathing in to breathe fire, run behind him and grab his tail.
Swing him around [with the D-pad, or the touch screen, your choice.] and
throw him into the spiky bombs on the sides. You only have to do it once.
Once you do this, he will give you the key to the downstairs. Good job!
-4.3//MUSHROOM CASTLE PT.2-
Finally a new part of the castle. You have access to here after you fight
Bowser for the first time. You now have access to some new levels.
-PART A//HAZY MAZE CAVE-
STAR 1 - Swimming Beast in the Cavern
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
This level is strange and confusing, but this mission is easy. From the
beginning, take the left path, watch out for the spider thing, just jump
on it to kill it. There is a big gap, do a long jump to get across. Enter the
door. You should be in a room where a boulders are rolling into a big hole.
Run past the boulders and up the path where they are coming from. Careful
not to get hit. Go into then door.
In the room, step on the lift and go down. Go down the path with all the
Goombas. Go into the water. You will see a beast swimming around with
a Wario cap on its head. Climb onto it and get the cap. [Don't worry, its
friendly.] Once your Wario, go to the island in the middle and punch the
rock to get a star.
STAR 2 - Elevate for 8 Red Coins
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
To get all the red coins in the level, you have to ride the elevator and get
all the coins along the way. To get there, head along the right path from
the beginning of the course. Make sure you avoid the fire. Slide down the
pole, and hop up the steps to the left in the corner.
There is a platform with arrows. You basically have to go around breaking
the blocks for most of the coins, and riding platforms.
Coin 1 - Head forward a bit, then go to the right. One of the blocks has
a red coin in it.
Coin 2 - The next box also has a red coin.
Coin 3 - Ahead and to the left a bit in the corner, theres a red coin in
the open.
Coin 4 - Go to where the purple pole is, climb up and ride the next platform,
you don't get to control this one. Break the first block for a red coin.
Coin 5 - The next coin is floating in the air on the track.
Coin 6 - On a small chunk of land in the air. Jump up to get it, then go back
to the platform.
Coin 7 - On a ledge at the end of the track.
Coin 8 - Next to Coin #7.
The star appears below you.
STAR 3 - Metal-Head Wario Can Move
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Wario
Requirements - Stars 1-2 Completed
You need Wario for this. You might not have him unlocked, so get the Wario
cap from the Goomba near the entrance on the right path. Head to the
underground lake [where you went for STAR 1]. Grab the Power Flower and
quickly run down the hill. Since your metal, you can walk on the lake floor.
Follow the left wall, theres a floor switch you must step on by the next
ledge. Step on it, as Metal Wario, and enter the room.
Long jump across. If you have trouble long jumping across the gaps, you can
play as Luigi and get the cap, and get hit by a spider and turn back into
Luigi after you hit the switch, since Luigi has a much better jumping
ability.
STAR 4 - Navigating the Toxic Maze
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Luigi/Mario
Requirements - Stars 1-3 Completed
As the name implies, you have to go to the toxic maze, where the wierd
purple maze area is on your map. Head down the right path and through the
elevator room. Take the door on the left and drop down the hole. If you
use Luigi for this, you can get the Power Flower and be immune to the
gas and the annoying enemy attacks. Or, you can become Mario and float over
it. Either way works. Make your way to the straightaway that leads to the
star. You have to float or jump up onto the ledge. Enter the door and run
down, watch out for the bats. At the end, there is a lift. Jump on it
and at the top the star is waiting for you.
STAR 5 - A-Maze-ing Emergancy Exit
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Luigi/Mario
Requirements - Stars 1-4 Completed
Follow the same directions as STAR 4, but go through the other path that
you have to jump to, not the one you went to for STAR 4. Go up the lift,
and go through the door. Jump up and grab on to the wire mesh. Climb over
to the star, drop down, and get it.
STAR 6 - Watch For Rolling Rocks
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Wario
Requirements - Stars 1-5 Completed
You need Wario for this mission, so grab the cap. Go to the room with the
boulders rolling down into the pit. Look at your map. You'll see a star
floating down the map, which is actually inside a rock. Punch the rock
[Wario is the only one strong enough to do so,] and grab the star, which
appears next to where the rocks fall.
STAR 7 - Underground Switch Star
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Luigi
Requirements - None
Grab the Wario cap. Go to the elevator room and find the black block in the
corner. Hit it to expose the star switch. Get hit by one of the Goombas
to return back to Luigi, as you will need him to get to the star in time.
Step on the switch and quickly run and climb up the block stairs where the
arrow platform is. Jump/flutter across the arrow platform to the platform
where the star is. Break the glass ball and claim your star.
STAR 8 - 100 Coins
-PART B//LETHAL LAVA LAND-
STAR 1 - Boil the Big Bully
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Luigi
Requirements - None
This level can be very evil, don't fall into the lava or its certian death.
Luigi might be the best for all of these levels, because he can jump far
which can save you from falling into the lava plenty of times. Make
your way to the star, careful of the sinking platforms, bullies, etc.
The big bully is stronger than you, so a good strategy is to go towards the
edge, and when he charges, jump out of the way. Run behind him and punch
him into the lava. It might take a couple tries, and theres emergancy coins
if you fall into the lava. Good luck.
STAR 2 - Boil the Bullies
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Luigi
Requirements - Star 1 Completed
Basically the same as the last star, but theres 4 bullies instead. Defeat
the three small bullies, and then a big one will appear. Use the same
strategy. You can also jump on them to shove them. Or you could just keep
punching and going forward until they fall off. ^^
STAR 3 - 8-Coin Puzzle With 15 Pieces
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
Probably the easiest red coin star ever. Head to the left, past the eye,
and you'll probably see the moving puzzle ahead. On the puzzle is 8 red
coins. As long as you watch the puzzle, you probably wont fall in. All
the red coins are on the puzzle. This ones barely worth making a guide over!
STAR 4 - Red-Hot Log Rolling
Difficulty - **
Best Character - Any
Requirements - None
From the start, head forward and to the left a bit until you get to a
platform with 2 bullies and some coins on it. There is a cage platform
next it. Jump on it and it will take you across the lava. Watch out for
the burning streams.
Get off the platform at the end and jump on the log. Go down the edge a
bit, enough for you to move but not for you to fall off. The log will start
rolling. Slowly run up the log to keep it moving till you get to the other
side. Run down the path and grab the star.
STAR 5 - Hot-Foot-It Into the Volcano
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Mario/Luigi
Requirements - None
You've probably passed by the volcano a couple times, but this time you
have to jump into it. When fire isn't spewing out, jump into the hole in
the top to enter a mini world.
Once inside, go straight and make your way up. Watch out for the bullies
and fire traps. Theres a wall trap on the third ledge, so don't let it
fall on you. Climb up the poles, climb to the very top to get a 1UP.
Be careful when jumping off, its easy to fall to the bottom. The star is
waiting for you at the top.
STAR 6 - Inside the Volcano
Difficulty - ***
Best Character - Mario/Luigi
Requirements - None
Back to the volcano so soon! This time, instead of going forward, turn
around and hop across the crusty platforms. At the last one, theres a
moving checkered platform that will take you up. After a while you will
have to jump to another platform, and then to a poll, so be ready. On
the second poll's platform, there is an extra life, so grab that, then climb
back up. Keep climbing and jumping until you get to the highest spot. Your
reward is a star.
STAR 7 - Flaming Silver Stars
Difficulty - *
Best Character - Any
Requirements - Stars 1-6 Completed
For this one you have to grab the koopa shell near the entrance, next to
the black block. Ride around and grab the stars in the lava. They aren't hard
to miss, so just use your map. Theres a lot of 1UPs by the stars, you might
want to pick those up.
-[ 5. SECRETS ]-
-5.1//SECRET STARS!-
SECRET SLIDE
Go up the staircase in the Castle, and go to the right to the door that
has a star with a 1 on it. You will see a room with 5 doors. Three have
letters above them, and four are locked. Go straight to the unlocked door
in the middle. There are paintings of Peach on the side. Jump into the
painting on the right side from where you came in. Start sliding down, once
you reach the bottom you get a star in the box. Be careful not to fall off!
If you do this after the first 4 Bob-omb Battlefield stars, your only 3
away from unlocking Mario, and 5 away from the Wing Cap.
SUNSHINE ISLES
Go back up to the room where you found the first secret star. Instead of
jumping into the Peach painting, go straight ahead through the unlocked
door. This is the Rec Room. You should see a painting on the left wall,
jump into it and enter Sunshine Isles. Here you can collect 5 Silver Stars
and get another star. Watch out for the Goombas and the evil Lakitu!
Star 1 - On top of the little mountain, in the open.
Star 2 - On top of a tree on one of the little islands.
Star 3 - In the open on another little island.
Star 4 - Hidden under the big island in a little cove.
Star 5 - Held by a bird flying around, you have to jump and knock it out
of the bird's hands.
Once you get all 5, go get the star which is by where you came in. Theres
one more secret star you can get in this area that I've found so far. Go
to the room opposite of the room which the Bob-omb Battlefield is in. There
should be aquariams with fish in them.
SECRET AQUARIUM
Go to the right and you should see a dark square high up. Do a backflip
into it and collect all 8 red coins before your air runs out! They are in
the four corners on the floor, and in the 4 circles by the windows. Now
you have 3 more stars for the fight against Bowser!
BOO'S RED COINS
In the area where all the boos are floating around, and where you enter Big
Boo's Haunt, many of the boos have red coins in them. Punch them and collect
all 8 red coins for a secret star.
TOAD STARS
You can get a toad star from Toad, hes hiding in the corner next to the
entrance of Hazy Maze Cave.

-Its easy to get lost in a crowd! Find the one who disappeared and touch him.
There he is!
This is kind of a... Where's Waldo type game. There is a bunch of characters
and you have to touch the one that is on the poster on the wanted screen. The
first levels are easy, but the next few are insane because theres a huge
amount of people! You can also run out of time... if you get the right one,
its +5, but if you touch the wrong one, its -10.

A pointless mini game... and kind of dumb, But I have to admit the graphics
are nice in the top screen.

Basically, select a tile and hope you get the right tiles into place.

the same sound. Win by matching all the pairs!
Mario's laugh is scary after you beat a level. This is like a sound memory
