If you go to "Snowman's Land", you can use your hat as a weapon!!! First of all, 
go to the top ledge were the snowman is. Next, go forward and get your hat 
blown off. Next, go to the left were there is a tree and stand next to it. You'll 
be teleported to another tree! Then, Go away from the tree and come back to 
it and you'll be teleported back again! Finally, there should be two hats there!!!! 
Go and pick them both up and then you'll be holding your hat!!!!!! The bad thing is 
that if you get hit, you'll take 2\3 more damage than before!!!!

For those of you who think getting all the stars in Bob-Omb battle field is 
impossible without the wing cap, you're wrong! To get all five hidden places 
without the wing cap follow these directions carefully, it won't work if you 
don't. First get the cannons. The reach the island in the sky. Then aim for the 
center of the first wing circle, You should get three secret spots right away! 
Then line up with the top center coin and point the cannon as high as it will 
go and fire. If you followed all directions above you should fly through the 
last two spots and into the star!!! For the hundred coins get every red coin, 
run around the logs defeat every enemy and collect every spare coin, you 
should get about 72 give or take a few. Then look to the sky, literally. Go 
to the island in the sky and collect the remaining 18 coins. (Give or take 
a few.) Congratulations you just finished Bob-Omb Battlefield without 
the wing cap.

In Tall, Tall Mountain (located up the spiral stairs and in the tiny 
painting with Mushrooms and a mountain on it). First, fly up the 
mountain by going to the ledge to the left where the free man is 
and jumping off at the very edge! This will take you to the place 
with the three bob-bombs in a row and the Big Guy who reminds 
you of the Big Bob-bomb in the first level. Take him by the back 
and launch him off the cliff. Now go to the wooden bridge and 
jump off so that you are in the lake at the bottom. Now go fly 
up the mountain again. If you happened to do it EXACTLY right 
you will see him falling! If not, you will hear a grunt and 
sometimes see coins.
*     *     *     *     *
In Course 12 after passing the wind making cloud there are five 
coins. Stand by the coins, turn left and walk to the wall. The wall 
will move and you can jump in it to find a slide of coins.
*     *     *     *     *
When playing the last Bowser run over by one of the spiked 
balls and get in back flip position. Then when Bowser charges 
double back flip over him and when he's off balance grab his 
tail, he will be inches away from the spiked ball for an easy kill.
*     *     *     *     *
On Princess Secret Slide there is a short cut when come 
out off the tunnel swerve towards the left and jump try 
to land on the track below.
*     *     *     *     *
When you are big in Level 13, Tiny-Huge Island, distract some 
butterflies and hit them. They will turn into bombs that will chase 
you for free guys. But the bombs are the shape of cannonballs and 
float in the air to chase you.
*     *     *     *     *
In the princesses secret slide an easier way to get the second star 
(if you haven't already gotten it), is to dive onto (run press B), 
the track. If you don't fall off then you should cross the finish in 
less than 21 seconds.
*     *     *     *     *
In the Tiny Huge Island course, you can collect over 160 coins. 
Step on each of the small mushrooms to get a coin. But in the Huge 
Island, jump and stomp on the large mushroom and you will get a blue coin.
*     *     *     *     *
Course 12 (Tall Tall Mountain) Here's an easier way to 
get the sixth star. (Blast Mario to the Lonely Mushroom) 
Go to where the monkey is and jump on the fly guy and 
spin your way to the lonely mushroom.
*     *     *     *    * 
When you are in the level were you have to make the sunken ship rise 
to the surface of the water you first have to make the ell come out 
what you do then is swim towards it and then swim away from it, then 
swim towards the ship and swim inside the hole that the ell was in 
then you have to open the chests but be careful if you got towards 
them the wrong way they will shock you and when you open them the 
ship will rise then go to the part were the steps are and get to the 
top and get the star their.
*     *     *     *     *
In Course 4, (look for the door with the lone star), look down a 
little, you will see a door with a 3 on it. Go inside, after you've 
jumped in the picture, pick up the little penguin and, before you 
crash into the fence whilst sliding on the slope after the first red 
coin, jump off for a quick shortcut!!
Real penguins can't fly either!! Mario will safely land in the soft snow!
Give the baby penguin back to it's mother, who will throw a star to 
her left. Instead of picking up the star, pick up the baby again, and 
the mother will get mad and chase you! 
*     *     *     *     *
1. In the desert stage near the grey thing with all the goombas under 
it you can get up there by doing a U-turn flip and use the turtle 
shell to get onto the four pillars.
2. You can get a one up in the secret slide room by getting to the 
end of it in 21seconds, but it's hard to do so you can try jumping 
off the first rail you see to the left.
3. In the first world of the game if you want a short cut to beat 
that stupid turtle you can find a warp by standing in a certain spot 
in the hole where the big black balls fly from.
4.  To get the caged star in the twomp stage the first tree you see 
in the stage has a owl in it which you can grab it and fly to the 
star.
5. To get that snow man's head a body first get the snow man's body 
to chase you then stand right beside the snow man's head when the 
body is still chasing you.
6.  If you can't catch the bunny in the basement you can try a dive 
jump to get him. And you can also destroy the ghost in the haunted 
house by just doing a stomp jump when they get to close.
*     *     *     *     *
In the first Ice World.  Go down the slide in the chimney and hold 
right as you go by the wall.  There is a secret wall that you can go 
through.
*     *     *     *     *
In Rainbow Ride, at the very beginning turn around. You should 
see a pole. Do a long-jump, and grab on to the pole. This isn't a 
really major secret or anything, but it helps to get the 6 stars 
quicker.
*     *     *     *     *
In the clock stage, to get the star where you have to jump on the 
thwomp, the clock does NOT have to be moving.  Go to the platform 
under the where the Thwomp is.  Do a triple jump to the back wall, 
then jump off the wall and grab on to the platform that the Thwomp 
is on. 
*     *     *     *     *
To get the Metal Cap, you must go to the basement then go to the door 
with a star on it then go inside there, then go to the chrome pool. 
Then go to the left side in to the door. Go up and follow the path. 
Don't go in that door! Keep following the path then go up where the 
boulders come from. Then go in the door, then swim to the water 
serpent. And go on its back then do jump and press Z to make the 
serpent to put its head down. Then move Mario to the serpents head 
then wait till the serpent goes to a red cage platform and a door. 
Go to the inside the chrome pool. And there you are!!!
*     *     *     *     *
Every Level contains 8 red coins and at least 100 gold coins. Collect 
either one for a star and both for two stars. 
For those of you who have trouble beating the first two Bowsers, 
here's a helpful tip. Grab him by the tail and line him up with a 
bomb. Release him, then pick him up again. Repeat this process until 
you blow him away.
*     *     *     *     *
In the Hot Lava level, jump in the volcano, (make sure your on star 
number 5 or 6) then go over to the lava waterfall and face it. Then 
jump into the lava then pull back on the control stick and you'll end 
up on the second elevator. Your butt will burn and you'll lose a little 
energy but it's a pretty good shortcut and it will save some time!
*     *     *     *     *
In Womp's Fortress theres a free man at the bottom of the tower.  
You'll see it because it's glowing.
*     *     *     *     *
In the Basement, if you catch the rabbit he gives you a star. If you 
catch him again when you have 50 stars he gives you another one. 
*     *     *     *     *
When you get 120 Stars go to the bottom of the lake outside and go 
into the cannon, when you shoot to the top of the castle you will 
meet Yoshi, he will give you 100 one-up mushrooms and a new special 
move. When you triple jump you'll do a cool invincible roll! 
*     *     *     *     *
To get the special ending, get all 120 stars and pass it without 
saving it. This may sound impossible, but it took me 4 hours to do 
it, and it works. At the end they all have a party with everyone 
in it
*     *     *     *     *
You can get into the two black 'windows' in the water-level entry 
room by doing a back flip. One contains an extra life, the other a 
secret star.
*     *     *     *     *
A Ride on the Penguin's Head
In Course 10, Snowman's Land, another cool trick for Mario is his new 
way to cross the ice bridge. Use the cannon to launch up to the tree, 
then get to the face of the giant snowman. Before crossing the ice 
bridge by using the penguin's help (walking at his side), try jumping 
on his head instead.
What will happen is that Mario will end up sitting on the penguin's 
head, and will avoid the strong gust of wind that normally pushes him off.
Secret of the Blockmen
In Course 2, Chip off Whomp's Block (found in door 1 on the right side 
of the castle), there is a cool trick Mario can pull off, but only if 
you're really good.
Take Mario up to the mid-section of the castle, where you can find 
the two giant guard blocks.
The trick is cool because it looks like a developing mistake, but we 
have been assured by Nintendo that it isn't. See those bandages on 
the blocks' backs? There's a reason for that. The normal way to beat 
these angry blocks is to stand in front of one, wait until he's about 
to collapse on Mario, then quickly avoid him, and perform a butt-stomp 
on his back. By doing this, gamers will get three coins (also by just 
jumping on these guys' backs, Mario gets one coin per jump).
But instead of avoiding the block, aim directly into the center of 
the block's face and jump into it (it has to be exact). What will 
happen is that Mario will jump straight through the block's face, and 
appear unharmed on the other side. This makes collecting coins from 
these blockheads a little easier (once you get the hang of it). 
Hat Trick
This is probably one of the coolest (if not entirely innocuous) Mario 
tricks we've found so far. Go to Snowman's Land (Course 10), which is 
located on the second story, up one story, and in the side door with 
the red carpet in front of it.
Once you're there, get to the snowman's head, as if you were about to 
cross the ice bridge with the big penguin's help. Now, go ahead and 
let the snowman's breath blow you off the bridge. You're hat will 
fall off. Don't go pick it up -- leave it there! 
Lead your hatless Mario past the gray star spot, the small, pop-up 
snowman, and toward two pine trees. The second tree of the two is in 
the corner, and it's a teleport. Teleport through it. Now step back 
and teleport yet again, in fact, do this at least three times. 
Once you've teleported a few times, go back to your hat and look at it 
carefully. Examine it from all sides. What you'll see is a bunch of 
hats stacked up on each other. Slowly approach the hats. Pick up the 
one hat and Mario will put it on his head and the other hats will 
stay there on the ground! Now, pick up the other hat(s), and Mario 
will put the hat in his hand and carry it around with him! He can 
whack baddies with it, and he won't put it back on until you either 
teleport with him, get a star, or leave the level. 
Like we said, it's innocuous, but fun, and it works on both the 
Japanese and U.S. versions. One warning: When Mario has his hat in 
hand, he will take double damage.
Staircase Weirdness
This one is surely a glitch. Take Mario to the second story (up from 
the foyer in the main part of the castle). Enter the door with the 
big pudgy star on it. Take about three or four steps, and face the 
wall on the left. Face the wall and jump two times. The second time 
Mario will slip through the underside of the staircase and appear on 
the stairs above.
Big Penguin Race
One of the cool things to do after achieving 120 stars in Super Mario 
64 is to go back and look at certain differences in the game. There 
aren't many, but we have found a couple. 
Go back to Course 4: Cool, Cool Mountain, and before entering, move 
the selection cursor over the stars until you reach Big Penguin Race. 
Enter into the game, jump into the chimney in the house at the level's 
beginning, and you'll meet up with the fattest penguin known to man 
(uh, Mario, that is).
It looks like the designers simply took a 3D tool and stretched the 
penguin out as far as they could, though it probably took more work 
than that.
This trick is good for a laugh, and the race is a little more 
difficult as well because when the Penguin gets in front of Mario, 
you're more vulnerable to fall off than before. 
Mario the Airhead
There are various courses throughout Super Mario 64 in which polygon 
glitching occurs. Of them, this one struck us as the best of the 
bunch, because we were able to find out Mario's "IQ." 
Find any door in the castle and open it. Immediately turn around 
and try and go through, and then stop ASAP. Occasionally, the Latiku 
Bros. cameraman won't come through with you, or it will come only 
partially through. If you do the trick right, and it'll take a few 
tries, you'll get an "x-ray" of Matio's skull. 
Finally, we were able to see into the mind of the greatest plumber 
of all time, which is to say we found very little at all. Mario has 
finally been seen for what he truly is, an airhead who's just hot for 
the princess. (Just a joke.)
Partial thanks go to David Wonn of Gahanna, OH who's Rabbit Test trick 
enabled us to find this glitch. 
Rabbit Test
Go to the Basement. Find a door which you can easily go in and out of. 
After going through the door, quickly execute a jump kick back at the 
door. Usually you'll go through the door completely without opening 
it. However, if you time it right, you can "merge" Mario with the 
door, i.e. half of Mario will be on one side and the other half will 
be on the other side. (This takes a little practice.) 
There is a situation in which you can actually do something weird 
with this trick. If you manage to find the rabbit in the basement and 
catch him, don't collect his star. Instead, carry him to a door and 
set him down just in front of it. Now go through the door and try the 
jump kick trick until you get Mario "merged" with the door (don't be 
surprised if it takes a while to get the timing right). Now pick the 
rabbit back up and set him down on the other side of the door. Go 
through the door and now you can carry the rabbit though the front 
room in the Basement. This trick may be just "for kicks," but it is 
kind of fun to do.
Secret Room
After attaining all 120 stars, here's a cool glitchy thing to do just 
for kicks. Drop into the cannon and blast onto the roof where Yoshi 
is. Grab the winged hat (from the red switch box) and rush back into 
the cannon on the ground. Aim toward the middle tower and then aim 
the cannon really high at the top of the cloud above it, and blast 
toward it. Land on it and walk around to the left side, and Mario 
should fall through the wall behind the front door.
Except for one thing, it's black and weird, and it seems he can't get 
out. Go through the door first. He will then appear as if he's in the 
front lobby. Now, if Mario is facing the door, scoot him over to his 
right, and he should be able to walk right through the wall beside the
door. Ah, glitchy madness!
Mario-beque
Did Nintendo actually mean for gamers to have Mario walking around 
up here? If so, it sure seems strange that Mario can walk straight 
through this pole.
Find this glitch at the end of the game when Mario has earned all 
120 stars. Use the cannon to get him here by shooting him nearly 
straight up in the air after grabbing the flying hat on the rooftop 
near Yoshi. Can you perform a perfect swan dive from the roof into 
the pool at the front of the castle?
*     *     *     *     *
Eliminate the Piranha Plants by sneaking up on them while there 
sleeping and bop them or throwing a wood block at them.
*     *     *     *     *
In the begining of the game in which you find the three pictures 
of the princess on the wall, go inside the one to the far right to get 
either a secret star or a one-up.
To prevent yourself from getting hurt when falling from a cliff, 
do a butt-stomp. this will prevent serious damage done to you.
*     *     *     *     *
Level 5, half way in lower left corner, hold down for 25 seconds 
and you will go to a bonus level and get 67 lives.
*     *     *     *     *
On the Big, Big mountain stage, on the second level of the castle, go 
to the hidden slide on the side of the mountain. Jump on the slide an 
proceed till you come to the first turn...a left. Fall off the edge 
to the inside of the turn. Then, Mario will plunge a mile to the 
slide below. I don't know if this is a cheat or not, but it is fun 
to do.
*     *     *     *     *
1) When you get enough stars a light will shine on the sun on the floor 
in the main hall, look up and you will be at the red square button 
stage.
2) When you get the first key from Bowser go downstairs and open the 
door, then go to the room with two pillars and stomp them down, 
letting the water level down.  Then go outside and go to the hole in 
the bricks and stomp on the blue brick button in the stage you find.
3) The green stomp block is in the oil pool level in the basement of 
the castle. Use the beast in the cavern to find it.
4) One more, okay, when you get enough stars a rabbit will appear, 
catch him and you'll get a secret star.  Also, remember to always 
talk to the mushroom guys, even more than once.
*     *     *     *     *
When first entering the castle walk Mario to the middle of the sun
shaped tile in the middle of the floor.  The sun will be shining down
on him from a hole in the ceiling.  Push the up yellow button once
or twice to get into the view around mode.  Then simply make Mario
look up into the sun for a cool secret.
When in the main picture room with of the sunk ship world look around
there in the view mode too.  You should find two square black entrances
at the top of two walls on the opposite sides of the room, try both
of them for some freebies.
*     *     *     *     *
Enter the princess slide, get under 21 seconds and get a star.
After 120 stars there is a cannon outside of the castle shoot to the 
top of the roof yoshie will meet you there and he gives you 100 men.
Then take the wings and explore.
After 120 stars go back to stage 3 and give the lil' pengiun back to 
the mom and get the blue star, then re-enter the level and fall down 
the chimney, and re-race the new pegiun.
*     *     *     *     *
1) To get red switch go into the castle stand on the sun. Press up, 
up on the C button and look for a sun. 
2) To get the blue switch go to the right of the 6th level go down the
stairs and stomp on the two pillars. The water will drain, go out of 
the door and go right to a hole. Go down the hole.
3) In course 3 there is a slide go don it until you reach what looks 
like a half pike. Follow the coins that go diagonal into a "secret 
slide". You will get 3 1-ups.
4) To get 120 stars you have to get 6 stars in the 15 courses, 100 
coins in the levels and 10  or more secret stars.
5) In Bower #3 there is a 1-up behind one of the pillars.
*     *     *     *     *
When fighting Bowser for the second time, instead of waiting for him 
to charge, just keep running around him until he stops and breathes 
fire.  But the best time to grab him is when he breathes fire 3 times.
That will give you plenty of time to throw him.
*     *     *     *     *
When you get 120 starts after seeing Yoshi, grab your wings and get 
in the cannon and blast yourself into the second highest plank. Then 
run to the wall and you will fall through it, you will be in a weird 
room, CAN YOU GET OUT?
*     *     *     *     *
In Stage 1-first star (Big Bob-Omb on the Summat), grab a wing cap 
and shoot yourself with cannons to meet the big bomb. DO NOT LET 
YOUR WING CAP RUN OUT!! Talk to him and then run away and go 
through the warp. Now your wing cap will wear off but the wing 
cap music won't go away until you warp again.
*     *     *     *     * 
In Coarse 10 do a double jump on the puinguins head for a easy 
way across the bridge. If you want to hit your enemies with your 
hat in Coarse 8 or 10 just lose your cap, go to the telepots and 
teleport back a forth. Go Back to your cap, you'll see there is 
many just get one and get the rest you will now hit your enemies 
with the cap. The teleports are under trees.
*     *     *     *     *
I'm missing the 120th Star! Where is it?
While standing anywhere in the Castle, pause your game, then press Up 
or Down on the Control Stick to scroll between the courses you've 
completed. Each course you've visited will be displayed with six 
Stars and the maximum amount of coins you've located in that course. 
A white Star indicates that you've found the Star, but a clear Star 
indicates you haven't. If you see any clear  Stars, go to that course 
and complete the necessary Star objective. If a Star doesn't appear 
next to the coin total, then you either haven't collected 100 coins 
in that course or you forgot to collect the seventh Star when you did. 
The pause screen will also indicate how many Castle Secret Stars 
you've located. There's a total of 15 Secret Stars. The most commonly 
missed one is in the Princess's Secret Slide. Don't be fooled if you 
only found one Star in this course, because there's actually two. 
What do I do in the room that has two short pillars in the water?

The sign on the wall reads, "It is decreed that one shall pound the 
pillars." If you Stomp on each pillar, you will drain the water out 
of the room, which reveals a door that leads to the moat that 
surrounds the Castle. Go through the door, then follow the path to 
the right and jump in the hole to locate the Vanish Cap Course.
In the basement, there's a solid transparent blue wall with a 
door behind it. How do I get to that door?

This door is more of an exit than an entrance. To get to the other 
side of this door, turn around and explore the cellars until you 
locate a door that leads you to a room with two pillars surrounded by 
water. Enter the door near the two pillars to come out of the door 
next to the transparent blue wall.
Note: If you run under the wall, then jump in the air, you can Dive to 
the door behind the blue wall. This may take some practice.
How do I get up the endless stairs?
In order to reach the top of the endless stairs, you will need 70 
Stars. The sign next to the Big Star Door reads, "To open the door 
that leads to the 'endless' stairs, you need 70 Stars. Bwa ha ha!"
This sign is somewhat misleading, because you can open the Big Star 
Door if you have less than 70 Stars, but the stairs will never 
end--hence the name, "endless stairs."
Is there anything special to do in the courtyard behind the Castle?
At the beginning of the game, there's not much you can do, except read 
all the signs for some good hints. After you collect at least 14 Stars, 
the courtyard will fill up with Boo-Buddies. Defeat the Big Boo-Buddy 
to locate the entrance to Course 5: Big Boo's Haunt.
How can I go through the door that's in the moat that surrounds the Castle?
You cannot enter the door if there's still water in the moat. In 
order to drain the moat, you need to have found the Big Key. Use the 
key to unlock the door to the Castle's basement, then explore the 
sewers for a room that is filled with water and has two pillars in it. 
If you Stomp on each pillar, you will drain the water out of the room, 
which reveals a door that leads to the moat that surrounds the Castle. 
Once the water has been drained from the moat, go through the door, 
then follow the path to the right and jump in the hole to locate the 
Vanish Cap Course.
How do I enter the small square grate that is underwater near the 
waterfall?
You cannot enter the grate if there's still water in the moat. In 
order to drain the moat, you need to have found the Big Key. Use the 
key to unlock the door to the Castle's basement, then explore the 
sewers for a room that is filled with water and has two pillars in it. 
If you Stomp on each pillar, you will drain the water out of the room, 
which reveals a door that leads to the moat that surrounds the Castle. 
Once the water has been drained from the moat, go through the door, 
then follow the path to the right and jump in the hole to locate the 
Vanish Cap Course.
I lost my cap! How do I get it back?
There are only three places that you can lose your cap. Fortunately, 
you can always re-enter the course you lost the cap in and get it back.
Course 8: Shifting Sand Land
If the Big Bird gets too close, it will take Mario's cap. In order to 
get it back, you must jump into the bird as it flies by. If you exit 
the course without the cap, you can always re-enter later and get it 
back from the bird.
Course 10: Snowman's Land
If the giant Snowman on the top of the mountain blows you off the 
side, you'll lose your cap. Search the area around the ice building 
to get it back. If you can't find it, re-enter the course, then walk 
around until you see a Spinning Snowman wearing it. Slowly walk 
around the Snowman until it falls over, then grab your cap.
Course 12: Tall Tall Mountain
If you get too close to the small cloud on the mountain, it will blow 
you and your cap of the side. To get your cap back, climb back up the 
mountain and take it from the monkey.†
Note: When Mario is not wearing his cap, he takes more damage than usual.
The Princess's Secret Slide
Requires at least 1 Star to enter.
From the entrance of the Castle, climb up the stairs in the center of 
the room, then go to the right and enter the door that has picture of 
a star with the number one on it. You'll appear in a small room with 
stained-glass windows that have pictures of the Princess on them. 
Jump into the far right window to enter the course.
You can earn two Stars in this course. If you make it to the bottom 
of the slide, you will automatically earn one Star. If you make it to 
the bottom of the slide in 20.9 seconds or less, you'll receive a 
second Star. In order to achieve a faster time, you will need to jump 
head first onto the slide, then hold forward on the Control Stick the 
whole way down. Also, try not to bump into any of the walls, because 
they can slow you down.
The Secret Aquarium
Requires at least 3 Stars to locate.
Jump into the black opening that is to the right of the Course 3 
entrance (the picture of the sunken ship). Swim around the room and 
collect all eight Red Coins. There are four Red Coins on the floor 
of the aquarium and four Red Coins floating near the top of the 
aquarium. After you collect all eight Red Coins, the Star will 
appear at the bottom center of the room. 
Wing Mario over the Rainbow
Requires at least 50 Stars to locate.
On the far-left side of the Castle's third floor. Go to the left of 
the giant clock and enter the large square opening in the wall, then 
drop down into the hole. There are eight Red Coins scattered 
throughout the course. Seven of the Red Coins can be obtained by 
flying from cloud to cloud. One Red Coin can be obtained by shooting 
yourself out of a Cannon, then dropping down onto it. After obtaining 
all eight Red Coins, the Star will appear on the cloud where you 
began the course. Because it's nearly impossible to give directions 
through this course, you'll have to explore on your own. The key to 
success is skilled flying techniques and a lot of practice. If you 
fall out of this course, you will not lose a life, but you will end 
up outside in front of the Castle.
This shows you how many of each item you can get at each level.

In Course 11, you can raise or lower the starting water level in 
this course by how high you jump into the picture.  There are 3 
distinct levels. If you jump into the picture very low, the water 
level will start almost on the ground. If you jump in around the 
center of the picture, the water level will start at mid level. If 
you jump in above the center of the picture, the water level will 
start higher than you can actually set it in the level... This makes 
getting to the pink bomb guy a piece of cake!! The easiest way to 
jump into the picture above the center is to stand two checkerboard 
floor tiles away from the picture and do a backflip into it... (double 
jump, triple jump, and turnaround flip also work)
To change the obstacle speed on Course 14, try this. For slower 
obstacles, enter when the minute hand is on 3. To stop them 
completely, enter when the minute hand is on 12. For the more 
ambitious, enter when the minute hand is on 6 for a greater 
challenge, or 9 for the ride of your life! 
To find some extra lives on the Ice stage:
1. On the first Ice stage, begin your slide. 
2. On the first left turn, head for the row of Coins. 
3. You'll slide into a tunnel that holds 2 extra lives. 
When you get 120 stars return to Cool Mountain for a 
rematch with the penguin. If you thought he was big then you'll 
be in for a surprise.
To improve your time on the Red Sliding level:
1. Enter the Red Sliding level. 
2. Jump to the left as soon as you exit the tunnel. 
3. With a little practice you can land on the later part of the 
course, saving you valuable time. Complete the course in under 
21 seconds to receive a Star. 
This shortcut works in the ice/blue sliding level. 
1. Pass the first two turns 
2. Do not turn at the third turn 
3. Let yourself fall slightly to the left 
When fighting bowser for the third time, if you get killed 
you can keep getting a 1-Up by walking behind the top left pillar. 
Warps
Warps are areas that if you stand still in them, you will be transported 
to another location in the level. If you want to reuse the same warp, all 
you need to do is jump, or walk off the warp spot and then walk back. 
Warp 1a will take you to warp 1b, warp 1b will take you to warp 1a, 
warp 2a will take you to warp 2b, warp 2b will take you to warp 2a, etc... 
          
Course 1
Warp 1a: From where you start, as soon as you cross the brown 
bridge, jump over the fence to the right. The warp is in the center 
of the yellow flower bed.
Warp 1b: When you cross the bridge that tilts, climb up the stairs, 
and keep going straight and to the left of the black bomb guys. The 
warp is in the center of the yellow flower bed near the red ! box.
Warp 2a and 2b: As you are climbing up the mountain, you will 
notice that the black rolling balls come out of the holes in the side 
of the mountain. There is a warp in the center of both holes... one 
takes you to the other,  and vice-versa.
Course 2
Warp 1a: In the corner next to the only green ! block on the level. 
(near the big blue puffy stomping guys) 
               
Warp 1b: (Click here for pictures) In the corner of the platform 
with the flagpole that extends up into the sky. 
 
Course 4
Warp 1a: When you start the level, go around to the right, the 
warp is on the edge of the broken bridge. 
               
Warp 1b: At the bottom of the level from the pool with the large 
penguin in it, go right. The warp is at the edge of the broken 
bridge under the mountain.
Course 7
Warp 1a: From the start of the level, there is an island behind 
you across the fire. It has a red ! block on it... The warp is in 
the center of that island.
Warp 1b: There is a platform near where you start with an 
eyeball on it. Underneath him is a hole in the grating. The 
warp is in the hole.
Course 8
Warp 1a: There is a palm tree next to a pool of water near 
where the vulture is flying. The warp is at the bottom of the 
tree in the tree's shadow.
Warp 1b: In the corner of the entire level where the cannon is, 
(on the section with the large cubes), the ground is divided into 
squares. The warp is in the center of the 4th square down from 
the cannon. (Stand at the cannon, and face the pyramid, then 
turn left, then go down 4 squares and stand in the center)
Course 10
Warp 1a: In the shadow of the tree in the corner of the entire 
level.
Warp 1b: In the shadow of the tree just before the island with the 
moving triangles on it. 
          
Course 11
Warp 1a: The water level must be all the way down in order to use 
this warp... On the ground there is a white structure made up of 
3 steps. On the second step, there is a spinning black ball that will 
shock you if you touch it. On the third step there is a diamond 
that will raise the water level. The warp is on the ground (you 
will be standing in the water) in the corner of the smallest step 
and the largest step.
Warp 1b: In the corner on the platform with the cannon. If you are 
standing on the ramp up to the cannon facing the cannon, the warp 
is in the farthest corner on the left. 
          
Course 12
Warp 1a: In the chasm with the mushroom platforms with the red 
coins on them, there are 2 very small platforms with no coin on them 
next to each other. The warp is on the small platform closest to the 
center of the chasm.
Warp 1b: At the other end of the path with the cannon on this 
level, there is a square area with a sign on it. The warp is in the 
corner against the two mountain walls. 
          
Course 13
Warp 1a: When you are Big Mario, there is a flat ! switch on 
the ground that will make a temporary bridge appear that will 
lead out to a square island in the air.  In the corner of the island 
with the gold coin is the warp.
Warp 1b: Unfortunately, this is only a one-way warp... when you 
take warp 1a, you will appear next to the pipe near the flat ! 
switch mentioned in warp 1a. (So there is really no warp 1b)
          
Course 15
Warp 1a: Outside on the edge of the platform leading into the 
castle up in the sky. (Directly across from the fireplace)
Warp 1b: (Click here for pictures) In the center on top of the 
rectangular building with all the red coins and the pink bomb guy.
Bowser in the Dark World
After earning at least eight Stars, enter the Big Star Door on the 
first floor of the Castle, then walk forward until the floor opens 
up. Drop into the pit to enter the course. If you follow the one-way 
path to the end of the course, you will locate a green pipe. Jump into 
the pipe, then defeat Bowser to obtain the Big Key. 
Collect the eight Red Coins to earn a Star (this is the recommended 
order to collect the coins).
One is suspended in mid-air to the right of where you begin the 
course. To obtain the coin, you will need to follow the path forward 
to the Purple Exclamation Switch, then jump on the switch to create 
some wooden crates under the Red Coin. Quickly return to the entrance 
of the course and collect the Red Coin before the wooden crates disappear.
One is suspended in mid-air to the right of the first flame thrower. 
To obtain the coin, jump on the Purple Exclamation Switch, then walk 
on the wooden crate and collect the Red Coin. 
One is located next to the crystal on the path with the electric 
spheres.
One is located behind the concrete block with the moving yellow platform.
One is located next to the four moving platforms. 
One is located on the octagon-shaped platform. One is located on the 
ledge next to the two unstable wooden platforms. One is located on top 
of the stone structure above the two wooden platforms. The Star will 
appear behind the green pipe at the end of the course.
Bowser in the Fire Sea
After earning at least 30 Stars, enter the Big Star Door in the 
basement of the Castle, then walk forward and enter the water wall to 
discover Course 9. If you locate the first Star in Course 9, the water
wall will move back and reveal the entrance to Bowser in the Fire Sea. 
If you follow the one-way path to the end of the course, you will 
locate a group of light blue rings with a clear yellow star in the 
center. Jump into the rings, then defeat Bowser to obtain the Big Key. 
One Red Coin is located above the wire net near the entrance of the 
course. From where you begin this course, ride the wire net cage to 
the end of the lava path, then continue past the sinking platforms 
until you reach the Bully. Follow the wire net path to the left until 
you reach the Red Coin.
Another Red Coin is located on the first unstable stone platform. 
There's no trick to obtaining this Red Coin. You'll see it as soon as 
you reach the two unstable stone platforms that spin around. 
Another Red Coin is located inside the cage next to the elevator lift. 
Just after the two unstable stone platforms, there is a pole that you 
can climb to reach a small enclosed cage with an elevator lift. The 
Red Coin is in the upper corner of the cage. 
Another Red Coin is located below the elevator lift that takes you up 
the wire net shaft. Just after the two unstable stone platforms, 
there is a elevator lift that will take you up to the second level of 
the course. If you walk onto the elevator left, then immediately walk 
off of it, you will see the Red Coin. Jump out to the coin to obtain it. 
Another Red Coin is located on the octagon-shaped platform with the 
Bully on it. After riding the elevator lift up to the second level, 
follow that path to the first incline, then go to the right and walk 
up the yellow path with the traction pads on it. Once at the top of 
the octagon-shaped platform, avoid the Bully and collect the Red Coin. 
Another Red Coin is located on the path above the two Bullies. On the 
second level of this course, there's a group of platforms that slowly 
rises up, then sinks down like an accordion. The Red Coin is located 
on the third platform, but you will have to wait for the platform to 
rise to its highest position before you can grab it. 
Another Red Coin is located next to the flame thrower on the lava 
covered path. Just after you pass the accordion-like platforms, you'll 
reach a lava area that has six convex-shaped platforms that 
temporarily sink under the lava. When it's safe, run in front of the 
second flame thrower to obtain the Red Coin. 
Another Red Coin is located above the pole at the end of the course. 
There's no trick to finding this Red Coin. Just before you reach the 
end of the course, the coin will be suspended in the air above the 
very last pole. Jump onto the pole, then wait for it to move you up to 
the coin. The Star will appear on top of the brick structure near the 
end of the course. To reach the Star, return to the second pole near 
the beginning of the brick structure, then use the Wall-Jump 
technique to reach the upper area.
Bowser in the Sky
After earning at least 70 Stars, enter the Big Star Door on the third 
floor of the Castle, then walk up the "never-ending" stairs and jump 
into the hole to enter the course. If you follow the one-way path to 
the end of the course, you will locate a green pipe. Jump into the 
pipe, then defeat Bowser to obtain the win the game. 
Collect the eight Red Coins to earn a Star
 One is located above the box near the entrance of the course. 
From where you begin this course, go forward until you reach a large 
box. Push the box towards to entrance of the course, then jump up on 
the box and collect the coin.
One is located near the Piranha Plant on the stone path. There's no 
trick to getting this Red Coin. It's located on the stone path that 
is just after the first spinning octagon-shaped platform. Be careful 
not to get toasted by the Piranha Plant. 
One is located on a tiny ledge underneath the unstable wooden platform. 
When you reach the unstable wooden platform, drop down to the lower 
level, then collect the Red Coin that is on the tiny ledge. The ledge 
is just barely hanging off the side of the lower level. 
One is located at the top of the light-blue/green traction path. 
There's no trick to obtaining this Red Coin. As soon as you reach the 
top of the large traction path with dots on it, you'll see the Red 
Coin. Jump up and get it.
One is located above the wooden platform near the red and white 
platform. Near the top of the course, you'll find a white and red 
platform with an arrow on it. If you jump on the platform, it will 
move you to the other side of the gap. As you move across the gap, 
you'll see the Red Coin above a wooden platform. When the moving 
platform is passing under the wooden platform, jump up and grab the 
Red Coin, then safely slide back onto the moving platform. 
One is located on the first spinning octagon-shaped platform. There's 
no trick to obtaining this Red Coin. As soon as you pass the red and 
white moving platform, you'll see the Red Coin on the center of 
spinning octagon-shaped platform. Walk to the center of the platform 
and collect the Red Coin.
One is located above a pole in-between two moving platforms. There's 
no trick to obtaining this Red Coin. Just after passing the two 
spinning octagon-shaped platforms, you'll climb a pole up to a wire 
net. Once at the top of the net, follow the path to the two moving 
platforms, then jump on the pole that's in-between them. Climb to the 
top of the pole to collect the Red Coin. 
One is located underneath the stairs at the very end of the course. 
Once at the very top of the course, you'll have to climb some stairs 
to reach the pipe that takes you to Bowser. If you look under these 
stairs, you'll notice a platform. Jump on the platform, then walk 
under the stairs and collect the Red Coin. 
The Star will appear at the very end of the course. 

Tricks


Here is a glitch that makes fighting bowser easier. In any of the bowser levels 
grab bowser by the tail, and without throwing him, release him. The next thing 
you should do is run right in front of him. At the instant that he is about to 
attack press B. Bowser's tail will now be in your hands.

This isn't really a code, tip or a password, but it's actually weird. When you 
have 120 stars, Go to level 3 (Jolly Roger Bay). Select star 1 (Plunder into 
the Sunken Ship) and swim towards the ship. Enter it and open the chests in 
the right order to drain the water. DO NOT COLLECT THE STAR IN THE BOX! 
Stand right in front of the steps to the star in the box. Turn around 90 
degrees to face the chests. Then run around all the 4 chests (not around EACH) 
clockwise once, then counterclockwise the other way once. (This is then part 
that's WEIRD) Pound (butt-slam) the chest nearest you. Then stand in front of 
the steps as before. If this works, you'll see a little "o" cloud floating in the 
air. It seems to be rising up or moving. If it disappears, or you don't see it, 
turn to the right slowly and there it is! Once again, I got it accidentally. It's 
weird as the black room weirdness.

I found a way to get underneath the cannon. All you have to do is stand really 
close to the edge of any cannon without falling in. Then punch and you can walk 
around underneath a cannon.
*     *     *     *     *
"THE DANCE ON AIR"
1. Go to Rainbow Road.
2. Get 99 coins.
3. Make the 100th coin that you get have no ground underneath it. For example, 
a coin on one of the carpet rides.
4. The star that appears shouldn't have anything except air all the way down.
5. Jump at the star.
6. Just before you fall out of the level, Mario will suddenly rocket back up and 
do his dance. After the dance you can here Mario screaming in the background, 
and you fall out of the level!
*     *     *     *     *
Enter the castle. Enter one of the two wooden doors that lead to the back yard. 
Notice that Boo is floating there. Chase him in to the garden then turn around 
and re-enter the castle. Turn around again and standing the right corner facing 
the wall that the door is on. use "Mario's View" ( C Up until you can control the 
view with the analog stick.), and turn the view until you can see around the 
wall. You should see nothing but blackness. Enter the basement. Turn around 
and re enter the castle( first floor). Go into the room with Whomp's Castle 
picture and slowly walk along the left hand wall until you hear Boo chatter. 
Go back in the wooden door toward the back yard BUT DO NOT ENTER THE BACK 
YARD. stand in the same corner as before( the right side corner facing the wall 
with the door on it.) use "Mario's View" and look around the wall again and Boo 
will be there. By punching different walls on the first floor you can make him 
move and turn. To re-set this trick leave the first floor and re-enter.
*     *     *     *     *
Ok start a new game, do not touch the grey bridge leading you too the 
front door of the castle. Instead go way over to the right side of the 
castle and do what's necessary to get on top of the castle. Then go to 
the front center of the castle, remember this is up on the roof. Then 
get to the edge as much as possible. then slowly jump off then do a 
kick back before you reach the ground, but close enough so you land 
on the red carpet. Then wants you do that you will see Lakita just 
sitting there. you can walk right through him too.
*     *     *     *     *
Get on top of the steeple and do a triple jump (make sure you have 
the wing cap) if you do it right you will land on the little ledge 
then wait until the wing cap goes away then jump and dive into 
the wall if you do it right you will land in a black room go through 
the door and then walk through the wall at the left of the door you 
will get out of the  room.
*     *     *     *     *
After reading the tip on torturing Mario, I found another place in 
the game where it works even better. Go to shifting sands level. 
Go to where the cannon is and get the wing cap, then go into the 
cannon and point it all the way to the left and all the way up. You'll 
take damage and land in the cannon again. Do it again so that you have 
no life. Now you can shoot out of the cannon and fly around even though 
your dead. As long as you don't land your ok. Collecting coins won't 
give you any life and you can't get any stars. If you go in the pyramid 
you'll die when you touch the ground. 
Another really good trick is to go to the second snow level, the one 
with the giant snowman. Get blown off the ledge by the snowman. 
This will make your hat fly off. Don't pick your hat up just yet, 
instead, go to the tree with the warp under it. It warps you to 
another tree. Now warp back to the first tree. Go pick up your hat 
now. There should be 2 hats on top of each other. After you put the 
first one on you can pick up the second one BUT he won't put it on 
his head. He will just hold it in his hand. As long as you don't leave 
the level, get a star, warp under the tree, or go into the igloo you'll 
keep holding the your hat. There won't be a hat on your head anymore 
so you'll take more damage. You can shoot out of the cannon while 
holding your hat. Every time you warp, after your hats blown off, 
one more hat will appear on top of the others so you can pick up 20 
hats if you wanted. This trick also works on shifting sands. Let 
the bird take your hat. Hit the bird so that he drops the hat but 
don't pick it up yet. Go under the palm tree and warp, then warp 
back again. Get the hat, have fun. I'm trying to get this to work on the 
Tall, Tall Mountain level but the cloud blows the cap off the mountain 
and the trick won't work if the monkey has it on his head.
Another trick is to get your hat blown off by the big snowman. 
Don't pick your hat up at all. Get a star instead and exit the level. 
Turn the N64 off and back on. Go back to that level and one of the 
little snowmen that pops of the ground will be wearing your hat. 
I had lost my hat this way one time and it took me a week 
to find where it was. 
One last thing. This is a modified version of another trick. Go to 
Bob-Omb Battlefield level and choose Footrace with Koopa the 
Quick. Get the wing cap and get Koopa in your sight The trick is, 
Koopa talks to you if you get to close to him, so do the triple jump 
BUT make sure your last jump, before you take off, is right next 
to him. Now fly into the cannon right by where you start. It helps 
if you hit the Z button when your right on top of the cannon hole. 
Now take off and head for the top of the mountain where the flag 
is at. If you did the trick right, Koopa will start talking to you even 
though your on the mountain. Start the race and you'll finish it in 
0'00"0 seconds. That's quick. Koopa will never finish the race, 
he'll just disappear and for the rest of the time your on the level 
it will play the racing music unless you get the wing cap. If you 
have trouble getting all the way to the top of the mountain from 
the first cannon you can fly into the cannon on the floating island 
for another boost.
*     *     *     *     *
After getting 120 stars shoot yourself to the top of the castle. 
Get the flying cap and quickly fly back into the cannon. Aim to 
the tip top off the castle and shoot. If done right you will land 
on the center tower. Slowly walk through the wall and if done 
right you will fall through the tower landing behind the front door. 
you will be inside the castle and only see outside. If you walk 
through the door you will be outside and only see inside. To get 
out of this weird place walk around the door to get to the outside 
of the castle. This trick takes some practice and it does not always 
work but after a while of practicing you will be able to do it every time.
*     *     *     *     *
Heres how you sky surf.
1) Go to little big world (or what ever its called).
2) Go to the small version.
3) Get the turtle shell on the beach.
4) Surf across the water to the cannon.
5) Keep going and when you reach the edge JUMP! on the small island.
6) When you get to the edge of the island in the sky jump again. You 
will be sky surfing.
*     *     *     *     *
Shoot yourself to the top of the castle, and go to the back right 
corner and slowly walk off the edge. Mario should fall off but 
still hang on to the edge of the castle. Pull yourself up and 
Mario's hat should disappear and you will die.
*     *     *     *     *
In Level 1, Second Star, get the Wing Cap, then race Koopa to the top, 
but use the warp. Continue racing until he comes and gives you the star. 
The Wing Cap music will be on even if you don't have the Wing Cap 
(don't warp)!

At the last fight with Bowser, go to the spinning things after the 
teeter-toter. Do a back flip when you go up and you are halfway there!

In Jolly Roger Bay, walk to the sand right in the water. If your lucky,
when you jump, the fish will jump also. 
The easiest way to get to get to Wigglers Basemen (Tiny Huge Island), 
go to tiny mode and go to the long barge of sand. Get the turtle shell 
and go up the hill to the basement. 
In Bomb-Omb Battle Field, when racing Koopa the Quick, get the Wing 
Cap and go the cannon behind Koopa. Don't go into the cannon, just 
stand next to it. Run towards Koopa and right before you reach him,
fly and land a little way's away from him. When you land you'll see 
the box of letters and hear the music but Koopa will be gone!
*     *     *     *     *
Go into the castle and up the stairs. Now go inside the door that 
is right in front of you. Run toward the spiral staircase but stop 
a few feet from it. There should be a gray pole type thing on the 
left. Get against the wall on your left a few feet from it. Now jump 
2 times. You should go through the top and be on a higher part of 
the staircase.

Here's a trick on the one with the Mama Penguin. Bring the baby 
penguin to her and she'll give you a star. Instead of taking the star, 
grab the penguin. When mama chases you, throw the baby penguin 
off the cliff. Mama will follow the kid of the cliff.

In the clock stage right before you go in, wait for the minute hand 
to be on 12, and go in the clock. If you do this correctly all the 
gears will have stopped. Also, if you wait for the minute hand to be 
on 6 and go in, the gears will go really fast in different directions.

You have probably found all 120 stars by now, right? Are you looking 
for something really fun and new to do, instead of all the cool levels 
over and over again? Try this. Mario is really great at diving into 
the water!!! In the intro "level", find the 3 meter board (the wooden 
bridge). Can you do the following dives? 
Far Jump - run towards the water, then press Z, then A. 
Simple Dive - run towards the water, as soon as you run off, press B. 
High Dive - go to opposite end of the bridge, turn around, jump 
once straight towards the water, but don't fall down. Now do the 
second, higher jump, off the bridge, and at the height of this jump, 
press B. 
High Long Dive - go to opposite end of the bridge, turn around, 
jump once straight up, the second time, with the higher jump 
towards the water, but don't fall off. Now, on your third, really 
high jump, press B & A at the same time. 
Single Forward Flip Smash - Jump over the water and press Z. 
Single Forward Flip Dive - Before talking to Yoshi, go to 
opposite end of the bridge, turn around, jump once straight 
up, the second time, with the higher jump towards the water, 
but don't fall off. Now, do your third, high jump, off the bridge, 
let Mario do one flip, then press B. 
Double Forward Flip Smash - Follow the above steps, but instead 
of pressing B, press Z. 
Double Forward Flip Dive - Follow the above steps, but let Mario 
flip twice before pressing B. 
Triple Forward Flip Smash - Follow the above steps, and let Mario 
flip twice, then press Z. 
Single Backward, Forward Flip Smash - Go to the end of the bridge 
over the water, with your back facing the water. Now, hold Z, then 
press A. Press in the direction of the water, and let Mario do one 
single backflip. Now press Z for the forward flip. 
Double Backward, Single Forward Flip Smash - Follow the above 
steps, but let Mario do two backflips before pressing Z. 
Butt Bomb - run towards the water, and press Z, then B. 
180* Dive - run away from the water, quickly press back towards 
the water, and press B & A at the same time. 
Belly Flop - works best with the 180o Dive...run away from the 
water, back towards the water, and press A. When you are about 
1 meter above the water, press B. 
Multi-Forward Flip Dive - after talking to Yoshi, follow the steps 
for the Double Forward Flip Dive, but press B after as many flips 
as you want. 
The 20 meter board is harder. Shoot yourself onto the castle with 
the cannon. Now, running towards the water, you'll see a tower in 
your way. This is the famous 20 meter board. It'll take practice, 
but try these jumps... 
Far Cliff Jump - run up the tower. Before falling off, press Z, then A. 
Cliff Dive - run towards the tower. Do the three jumps, make sure 
the second jump is right before the tower, and on your third jump, 
press B and A at the same time. 
Single Forward Flip Cliff Dive - Follow the above steps, but only 
press A instead of B & A. After one flip, press B. 
Double Forward Flip Cliff Dive - Follow the above steps, but let 
Mario do two flips before pressing B. 
Multi-Forward Flip Cliff Dive - Follow the above steps, but talk to 
Yoshi first, and press B after the number of flips you want.
Double Forward Flip Stunt Cliff Dive - Follow the steps for the 
Double Forward Flip Cliff Dive, but aim for under the bridge. 
Right when you get below it, press B.
Multi Forward Flip Stunt Cliff Dive - Above steps, but talk to Yoshi first. 
Sky Dive - On the top of the tower, make sure you are looking right 
between the tree nearest to the water (the one on the very left), and 
the wooden bridge. You may have to play around with the camera 
in order to do this, but DO IT. Now, run straight ahead (towards 
where you are looking) for approximately 1 second. Press A, and 
a half a second later, B, press forward, and start praying!!! If you 
do it right, and after a little practice, Mario will dive, and fall for 
about 4-5 seconds, and dive right into the pool.
Suicide Jump/Dive - Follow the above steps, but don't aim for the water. 
Far Jump - Follow the above steps, but instead of pressing A, press Z 
and then A. 
Heaven's Dive - Follow the above steps to get to the top of the world, 
but make sure you still have the red cap on. Now jump three times 
(only works if you're looking downhill), fly above the pond, and after 
the cap wears out (it wears out after exactly 60 seconds of use), press B. 
Heaven's Crash - Fly above the pond, like said above, but after the 
cap wears out, press Z. 
*     *     *     *     *
Here's another cool dive. Do a back flip ( Press Z and jump) 
off the board (bridge) and as soon as you have flipped, press 
Z before you hit the water and you will have done it! this 
trick is best done when there is water in the moat.

This is a tip to get to the top of the castle and perform the 
ultimate dive. 
First, after you have gotten 120 stars, and talked to Yoshi, grab the 
winged cap and hop in the cannon. 
Second, Then aim, so all you have in the view is the brown top of the 
castle, and fire.
Third, Hold down to put yourself at the peak of your flight. then push 
up on the stick and then down leveling yourself and landing on the 
deck before the top peak, immediately push A. 
Fourth, you should be directly above the stained window of peach. 
That is the first side, one of them, you can walk up, taking you to 
the very top. Now do run just after you go over the peak jump and 
press B aiming yourself to the water. 
*     *     *     *     *
After you get 120 stars blast on the roof and go to the end
of the castle (opposite of the cannon and pond) you will run
into a invisible wall, press the "up" C button and ,on the 
joystick, turn it to your left or right and press B. You 
will see the front yard, except you're looking inside the
castle.
*     *     *     *     *
Okay first you have to have 120 stars (no big deal
right?!) then blast to the top of the castle (ka blewy) 
then walk to the front of the castle and go to the area 
where the castle juts out, the area above the picture of 
Peach. Now look down a little and you should be really
BIGGGGGG
Okay first you need all the caps accessible then go to any
stage and jump on the cap box (kinda hard at first) the look 
SLIGHTLY down and you should be (a little) bigger!!!
PART 1-This is WEIRD, first you need nothing then
to go almost all the way next to the tree but
take a FEW steps away (4-6) then look up! GOSH 
is that tree BIG or what?
PART 2-This is WEIRD too. Go next to a tree in Likutu
camera mode and press C left or C right and keep pressing it.
Isn't it kinda spooky the way it always looks at you?
*     *     *     *     *
Go on top of the castle and go to the back of the castle.  Change 
the view so you can see Mario's face.  Go to the back so you can't 
go any further.  You should now be able to see through the castle 
and you should see the door, the hole where you get the blue switch 
and more.
In any level with a hill, slide off the hill and press back for about half 
of the way down and when you reach flat land, let go and you'll float 
backwards.  
*     *     *     *     *
This trick isn't much, but it's very funny. Have Mario go to
Lethal Lava Land. Go to stars 5 or 6 (Cause you need the super
Shell) After getting the shell, go to the log that rolls when 
you jump on it. Instead of jumping on it, go under it
And Mario will Make a weird sound. (And die!!!!!)
*     *     *     *     *
Go to left side of castle .  Do triple jump and land on Boo.
You end up on top of castle. Yoshi is not up there but you
get a good view (stars do not mater).
*     *     *     *     *
In the first level go to the first bridge which 
is like a ramp.  Go under it and jump to hang on it,
it's like hanging on wire or vines. Now swing to the
bottom part of the bridge until you hit the dirt and
cant swing any further.  Let go and you should go right
through the bridge.
*     *     *     *     *
In the first snow stage, there are TWO penguins.  One in 
the very beginning, and one on the roof of the house. 
(Located behind the Mother Penguin.  Bring both babies 
to the Mother one, then run, jump, and dive next to the 
little pond the penguins are in.  The babies imitate you!!!!
*     *     *     *     *
Performing this trick will let you torture Mario!
1.  Jump into the Wet/Dry World painting at the highest
level.  The water will now be up as high as it will go.
 2.  Get in the cannon.  Aim directly at the sun, then nudge
it down a tiny bit (note:  only a VERY tiny bit, or it
will not work).
 3.  Fire the cannon.  While in the air, hold back on the 
control stick.  If you aimed correctly, you will hit
the "invisible" wall, fall back to the cannon platform,
take damage, and bounce back into the cannon.
 4.  Here's the best part:   You can still shoot him after 
he's dead!  When you have finished torturing the little
guy, shoot him into the water, where he will instantly 
drown with his head above the water!

jump kick off the wall to reach. Go up and defeat the Ghost 
and prepare to scream. To get the Star you must jump
to the flat portion of the roof to your left or right and then 
super jump back to the middle. Very difficult! 
#6 For the final Star, you must go back to the small library, but 
this time you must grab the Blue! Box before you go up the wall.

Course 6 is the door just to the right of the Fire World (Course 7). 
#1 Go to Nessy's Swamp (via the rolling rock area) and you'll 
find a star sitting in the middle. Hop on Nessy's back (don't 
worry it's a harmless procedure) to reach it. 
#2 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
#3 Head back to Nessy's Swamp, but this time hit the Green ! 
Switch and turn into Chromario. Follow the path underwater 
to the blue floor switch and then enter the door behind the 
newly opened gates. The star is just two short super jumps away!

you find a single mole. Use the Mario Cane to find a ledge and then 
use a super back flip to get up top. Run through the door, grasp the
girder above you and follow the coins to the star. 
#5 Head back to the acid trenches and get back to the single 
mole. To the right of the passage you just jumped up to you'll 
see a wall with green slime marks. Above them is another secret passage.
Back flip up and head down the passage and you'll find the fifth Star. 
#6 Finally, head back to the rolling rocks and go to the left 
side of the cavern. Turn towards the door and look up and you'll 
see the Star. Use the wall jump technique to reach it! 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 7 (Fire World)

Location: Go to the basement and follow the hallway to the right. Course 
7 is the picture of the fire creature. 
#1 Follow the path until you get to a large Viking Bomb. Knock 
him into the lava and you'll receive a star. (Hint: Lure them to 
the edge and then Butt Slash'em.)

Bombs. Knock them into the lava and a large one will appear. 
Knock him in and the Star is yours. 
#3 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
#4 As you enter the level there is a wall of grating that is 
hiding a Star. Work your way across the platforms and then 
use the rolling log to reach your prize.

transported to the center. Work your way up the side path, make 
a couple of jumps, and the pointed, shiny thing is yours.

platform that spirals upward. Reach the top and your job here 
is done. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 8 (Desert World)

Location: Go to the basement and follow the hallway to the right. Take a 
left at the picture of the fire creature and follow the path until you reach 
a dead-end. Now, jump into the false wall (tricky!). 
#1 Grab the star from the vulture flying by the oasis next to the 
pyramid. (Note: You can run up the sides of the checkered columns.) 
#2 Climb the outside of the Pyramid to the top and you'll find 
the idols you seek. 
#3 Enter the pyramid and go all the way to the top. Easy! 
#4 Make your way up the inside of the pyramid so that you can 
fall onto the top of the checkered box in the middle of the structure. 
Go to the edge with of the wall with the hole in the side. Walk off
the edge and immediately press back towards the structure and 
Mario will grab onto the ledge. Go down and battle the hands boss 
for the Star. Hint: Hit the eye when it's open. 
#5 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
#6 To get the sixth Star you must collect five specific gold 
coins inside the pyramid. Starting at the highest platform in the 
pyramid is a river of sand. There are two coins out in the river 
and three that can reached by falling onto the three platforms to 
the left and right as it flows from the top. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 9 (Water Level 2)

Location: Go to the basement and go to the Star door directly to 
your left as you enter. (Note: You must have thirty Stars to 
enter.) Jump into the shimmering water at the end of the hall. 
#1 The first Star is on top of the submarine. Use the floor ! 
switch to create a bridge to your prize. 
#2 At the beginning of the level swim all the way to the bottom 
and then open all five chests in order. Start with the chest 
next to the clam and work your way around the bottom 
counter-clockwise until you get to the final chest next to the vortex. 
#3 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
#4 In the back cavern there is a water jet sending up rings of 
water. Go through five rings in a row and a Star will appear. 
To get the Star simply hit the Green ! Box and use Chromario to fetch it. 
#5 The Manta Ray in the front cove also sends out rings of water. 
Swim through five in a row and a Star will appear. 
#6 In the back cavern there is a Star behind a wall of coral. Use 
the Blue! Box to turn into Molecular Mario and then walk through 
the wall and nab the Star. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 10 (Ice World 2)

Location: On the second floor (which can only be accessed by 
the Key from Bowser #2) you'll find a door surrounded by 
brick that leads to a hall of mirrors. Take a left as you 
enter the hall and look in the mirror. You'll see a snow 
level that is only in the reflection. Jump into the corresponding wall. 
#1 Head to the top of the mountain, via the ridge just past 
the snow wave machine, and talk to the penguin. Now you must 
match his moves to make it across the icy bridge without 
being blow off. The Star is just around the corner. 
#2 Simply knock the Viking ice ball into the water to rack up 
another Star. 
#3 Solve the 3D puzzle maze right at the beginning of the level. 
#4 Just to the left of the snow wave machine is a helicopter 
snowman in the water. Jump off his head and you can fly over 
the ridge directly behind him. The box on the left is a Star 
and the right box is a turtle shell (which is necessary to get 
the Red Coins beneath the Viking ice ball). 
#5 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
#6 Use the Turtle shell next to Star #4, but this time go to the 
ramp with coins leading up the mountain (just to the left of 
the snow wave machine). Enter the igloo and use the Blue ! Box in the
corner to pass through walls and get the Star. Hint: One wall 
around the Blue ! Box is shorter than the others. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 11 (Water Skimmer World)

Location: The picture of the water spider that you see as you enter the 
second floor (where levels 10-13 are located). 
#1 Raise the water to the third highest level and then travel out 
to the small platforms with direction arrows on them. Ride 
them across to the Yellow ! Box that contains a Star. 
#2 Work your way up to the spinning platform and then jump 
to the orange platform with a Yellow! Box. Bust it for the Star. 
#3 To collect the third Star you must touch the five secret 
spots. The first is the Yellow ! Box on the column to the right 
of the floor ! switch. The second is the Yellow! Box above Star 
#4. Now you must drain the water to the lowest level. The third 
spot is behind the push box just below Star #1. The fourth is the 
Yellow! Box to the right of the push box and the final spot is 
the push box at the base of the structure. 
#4 The grate cage just above the Blue ! Switch holds the fourth 
Star. To get it you must first drain the water to its lowest level 
so you can break the box at the bottom of the cage. Now, without
raising the water, get back to the floor ! switch. Flip it, and 
climb to the top. Here's where it gets tricky. You must ride the 
elevator down, hop off, and then get back on inside the cage before the
elevator heads back up. We found that a back flip works best. 
#5 Collect all eight Red Coins (which are found in the same area 
as the Star #6). 
#6 To get the sixth Star you must travel to the second area in 
this level. To get there you must raise the water to its highest 
level (the button just up and to the right of the long grate cage 
in the corner). Now go to the floating plank just to the right of 
the platform with the Pink Bomb-omb. You MUST triple jump on 
this tiny platform to get up to the Bomb-omb. After you make 
this jump, talk to him and he'll open the cannon. Blast through 
the sky into the lone grating in the corner. Swim down and around 
and you'll find the hidden area. Swim down to the button in the 
corner and drain the water. Look around and you'll see a floor 
switch. Remember that! Go to the Blue! Switch and become
Molecular Mario! Now run and flip the floor switch and then run 
to the long grate with the Star inside. If the switch runs out, 
you can also use a wall-jump to get up to the Star. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 12 (Mushroom World)

Location: The small picture of mushrooms on the third floor. 
#1 The first Star is at the very top of the mountain. 
#2 Catch the monkey at the very top of the mountain and follow 
him. He will open the cage to the second Star. 
#3 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
 #4 As you make your way up the mountain there is a long 
jump right next to a 1-up. After you make the jump, walk 
up to the next corner (where five coins are located) and 
look at the side of the mountain. Jump into the odd colored 
area and you'll be transported to a slide that, when finished,
will take you to a Star. 
#5 Towards the top of the mountain you'll encounter a floor! 
switch. Enable the switch and run up to the top of the waterfall. 
The secret brick will allow you to jump down to the Star. 
#6 To get the sixth Star you must use the Cannon to shoot out to 
the Star on the Mushroom. The Pink Bomb-omb that you must 
talk too is just below the first monkey and the cannon is located 
just below the single mushroom by the gophers. To get to it 
you must super jump out to the large mushroom and then super 
jump again to the landing below. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 13 (Big and Small World)

Location: Enter the door to the right of the water spider level. 
The picture to the left makes Mario big, the picture to the 
right makes Mario small, and the picture in the middle does 
nothing. Note: You can also change Mario's size on the level 
by jumping into green pipes. 
#1 At the green pipe, located next to the floor ! switch, destroy 
all the plants as small Mario and you'll get a Star. 
#2 Go to the top of the mountain as small Mario and break open 
the Yellow ! Box and you'll get a shiny Star. 
#3 As small Mario you'll find a Koopa Troopa waiting just beyond 
where the balls come out of the mountain next to a small pen. 
Beat him to the flag and he'll squeeze off a Star. 
#4 To get the fourth Star you must find five secret Spots as big 
Mario. They are located at the top of the mountain...next to the 
cannon...by the origin of the rolling cannon balls...the cave that 
leads to the eight Red Coins...and the tunnel right at the beginning of 
the level. 
#5 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
#6 For the sixth Star you must go to the top of the mountain as 
big Mario and butt smash into the center of the pool of water 
so that all the water will drain and reveal a hidden passage. Turn 
back into small Mario and jump in. Beat the caterpillar inside and 
you'll get the sixth Star. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 14 (Clock World)
Location: As you enter the third floor, it is the clock face directly in 
front of you. Jump in right on the hour and the clockworks inside 
will stop; however, for some Stars the clock must be working. 
#1 Head up the clockworks and you'll come across a cage with a 
Star in it. What are you waiting for? Go get it! 
#2 Head back up the clockworks, but this time go further than you 
did before until you reach an enemy that looks like a mix between 
a vacuum and a spatula. Just past him there is a chasm that you
must jump across. Go to the other side and nab the Star. 
#3 As you climb up the level you'll notice a clock hand moving in 
the middle. Hop on the hand and swing around to the third Star. 
(Note: The Clock must be moving to get this Star.) 
#4 Climb all the way to the top of the level and jump onto the 
clock hand and swing over to the conveyor belt. Jump onto the 
blue stomping stone and then jump out to the Star. (Note: The 
Clock must be moving to get this Star.) 
#5 This star is directly above Star #2. To get there you must 
jump out onto the top of the yellow cage that you'll see just 
past the heart refill. (Note: The Clock must be moving to get 
this Star.) 
#6 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins. 
Course 15 (Rainbow Road)

Location: Just to the right of the clock on the third floor. 
#1 The first star is on top of the flying ship. To get there you 
must take the carpet on the left when you reach a fork in the 
rainbow road. 
#2 The second Star is on top of the castle in the sky. To get 
there you must take the carpet on the right when you reach 
a fork in the rainbow road. (Hint: Use the back flip to make 
the more difficult jumps.) 
#3 Collect all eight Red Coins. 
#4 Take the route to the left of the Red Coin area and follow the 
path. After going across numerous swings you'll come to a split 
in the road. Go forward toward the small pyramids. Make it up the
pyramid path and you'll be rewarded with a Star. 
#5 Follow the same route as Star #4, but this time head up the 
large incline and then follow the path to the next Star. 
#6 The sixth Star can only be reached by the cannon at the back 
of the flying ship (where you found Star #1). To enable the 
cannon you must talk to the Pink Bomb-omb in a secret area 
of the Red Coin maze. To get there you must go to the spot with 
the heart refill. Now, a la Metroid, you must jump kick back and 
forth off the walls until you reach the top of the structure. 
Walk to the end and talk to Pinky. Now go back to the ship and 
launch out of the cannon through the rainbow hoop at the flagpole 
on the small island. There you will find a yellow ! box with the Star. 
Bonus Star: Collect 100 Gold Coins.
