This guide covers all aspects of the awesome game that is Super Mario RPG. Lush rendered graphics, humorous dialogue, button bashing and brain teasing mini-games, a turn based battle system and of course who could forget... Mario. Super Mario RPG was definitely the Super Nintendo's swan song!

Suddenly, out if nowhere, Bowser appeared and grabbed the Princess again! (Like you'd expect anyone else to?) Mario hearing Toadstool's scream for help, sped off alone towards Bowser's Keep. After Mario trounced Bowser for the millionth time (this time they fought on one of Bowser's chandeliers), everyone felt Bowser's Keep beginning to shake! A HUGE sword crashed into Bowser's Keep! What's gonna happen now? =============================================================================== 2)CONTROLS =============================================================================== O U T O F B A T T L E *********************** Control Pad- ·Selects different commands in the Menu Screen. ·Moves Mario in 8 directions A Button- · Confirms selections in the Menu Screen. · Makes Mario talk to whoever is in front of him. · Makes Mario check what's in front of him. B Button- · Cancels selections in the Menu Screen. · Makes Mario jump. X Button- Opens the Menu Screen. Y Button- Makes Mario run (looks more like a power walk). L & R Button- Selects between Mono and Stereo on the Game Select Screen. Select- Selects between Mono and Stereo on the Game Select Screen. Start- Starts play on the Game Select Screen. I N B A T T L E **************** _________ |Attacking| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Press the A Button if you want to do a physical attack, then select the enemy you want to attack then press the A button again to attack. If you want to cause more damage, see the Physical Attacks in the BATTLE PARTY section. _________________________ |Using a Special Technique| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Press the Y Button if you want to use a special technique, then select the Special Technique you want to use and press the Y Button. Now, select the enemies or party members you want to use it on, then press the Y Button again to start using the special techniques. If you want to cause more damage, or get extra effects, see the Special Techniques in the BATTLE PARTY section. ____________ |Using a Item| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Press the X Button if you want to use an item, then select the item you want to use and press the X Button. Then select the enemies or party members you want to use it on, then press X again to use the item. If you press the X Button at the right time when the item is being used you will get a "Freebie", it seems you can only do this once for every item, but this trick is still useful for rare one-time use items such as Rock Candy and Red Essence. _________ |Defending| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Press the B Button then move the cursor onto Defense and press the B Button. Defending decreases the effectiveness of enemy attacks for that turn. You can also defend attacks without losing a turn; simply when the enemy makes contact press B. ____________ |Running Away| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Press the B Button then move the cursor onto Run Away and press the B Button, you can't run away from boss battles but you can run away from normal enemy battles, your escape is relied on the enemies and your speed. =============================================================================== 3)BATTLE PARTY =============================================================================== Here is a description of all the characters that make up your party in the game. At first you will only start off with Mario, but gradually more and more will join your party and you will be given the choice of switching between which three you want to use in battle. NOTE: FP means the amount of Flowers used by the special technique, Mg.P is the strength of the special technique and Lvl means the level that the character learns the technique. M A R I O ********* It's a Mario! The worlds most famous stereotype hmmm.. maybe that's not so true. If he was a common Italian-American stereotype he would live in New Jersey and Bowser would be sleeping with the fishes by now. Anyhow, he is the only character that has to be permanently in your team, so luckily he is one of the best characters in the game. He has brutal physical attacks and fairly strong special techniques; which are his trademark Fireball and Jump attacks. ________________ |Physical Attacks| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Punch: Mario simply winds up and gives the enemy a good right hook, press the A button just before he punches for a timed hit. Hammer: Mario whacks the enemy with a wooden hammer, press the A Button just before he swings the hammer. Shell: Mario throws a shell into the air then boots it into the enemy, press the A Button just as Mario's about to kick it into the enemy. __________________ |Special Techniques| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Name | FP | Mg.P | Lvl | Description ,------------+----+------+-----+---------------------------------------. |Jump | 3 | 25 | 1 | Stomp foes!

French restraunts would be more popular if the frogs they used looked and tasted like him. But anyway, this poor little chap joins Mario's party (permanently) because he finds out he's adopted and wants to search for his real parents! (wouldn't his parents be confectionary machines). Anyhow, this little piece of fluff has devastating lightning based attacks. He also has the very useful "Psychopath", which shows how much HP the enemy has and what it's thinking (if your timing's right). He also can be used as a healer, since he learns "HP Rain" fairly early. ________________ |Physical Attacks| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Punch: Mallow wallops the enemy with his stretchy arms, press the A button just before he punches for a timed hit. Stick: Mallow whacks the enemy with a carved stick, press the A Button just before the stick makes contact for more damage. Cymbals: Mallow clangs two cymbals together to cause a sonic wall, press the A Button just after he whacks the cymbals together __________________ |Special Techniques| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ The "Snowy" special technique causes more damage if you rotate the Control Pad by rubbing your thumb in a clock-wise motion over it.

Hit "Y" just upon contact! | `-------------^----^------^-----^---------------------------------------------' G E N O ******* The protector of the Star Road named "[Heart][Note]!?", He chose to inhibit a doll by the name of "Geno" since it looked the strongest out of a bunch of dolls, including Mario and Bowser. And he chose well, Geno is one of the best characters in the game. ________________ |Physical Attacks| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Punch: Geno shoots his fist at the enemy like a missile, press the A Button just before he launches it for a timed hit. Gun: Geno shoots bullets from a part of his arm, press the A Button just before he fires the weapon. __________________ |Special Techniques| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Apart from the "Geno Whirl" and "Geno Boost", all of Geno's special techniques use stored energy. To get maximum results, hold the Y Button until all three stars appear on the screen then release.

Bowser's brute strength comes very handy in Mario's adventure. He's also great for comic relief! God he cries a lot, he's actually a big wuss. ________________ |Physical Attacks| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Bare Hand: Bowser swipes at the enemy. Press the A Button just before he swipes for a timed hit. Chomp: Bowser throws one of his chompy pets at the enemy so it chomps at it. Press the A Button just before he releases it for a timed hit. Hurly Glove: Bowser hurls Mario at the enemy, press the A Button just before Mario impacts for a timed hit. __________________ |Special Techniques| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Name | FP | Mg.P | Lvl | Description ,--------------+----+------+-----+---------------------------------------. | Terrorize | 6 | 10 | 1 | Scare'em good! | | Poison Gas | 10 | 20 | 12 | Poison Foes! | | Crusher | 12 | 60 | 15 | Rock slide!

I'm surprised Toadstool doesn't get constantly sexually harassed by Bowser since they're in the same party. Anyhow the spoilt and awfully pink brat of the Mushroom Kingdom wants to prove her worth. Her main use here is "the healer". We couldn't have her throwing flaming skulls at the enemy, that would be too un-feminine. ________________ |Physical Attacks| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Slap: Toadstool gives the enemy a good Italian backhander (she must have learned from Mario), press the A button just before she slaps. Parasol: Toadstool pokes them in the eye with her parasol, press the A Button just before she opens it out. War Fan / : Toadstool whacks the enemy in the jaw with the object, press the A Frying Pan Button just as she whacks them. __________________ |Special Techniques| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Name | FP | Mg.P | Lvl | Description ,-------------+----+------+-----+-----------------------------. | Therapy | 2 | 40 | 1 | Heal HP & status! | | Group Hug | 4 | 30 | 1 | Heal group!

A: You must either be younger then 10 or live in a PAL territory, since this game has never been converted to PAL (to my knowledge). - - - - - - - - - - Q: I am a diehard RPG gamer, will I like this game? A: This is an extremely hard question to answer, since it relies on your personality. So i'll just say this: If you love RPG's but are willing to except slight anti-RPG elements, then yes, you will like this game. - - - - - - - - - - Q: Do you know anywhere that still sells this game? A: According to some sources, Funcoland and Babbages may have copies of it. - - - - - - - - - - Q: I live in a PAL territory so I got the NTSC version, but it doesn't work with my converter. Do you know how I can get it to work? A: Yes, actually I do! Super Mario RPG was released around the time Nintendo was getting very sneaky with imports, they put a device in Super Mario RPG and Super Mario World 2 whiched blocked the newest most up-to-date converters but didn't block the older out-of-date ones. So get an older converter (I don't like your chances of getting one). Also make sure your converter is FX chip compatible, The NTSC slot should look like this: _________________________________ |IIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IIII| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ The four pins on either side are for the FX chip. I use a "Fire SNES Game Converter- Europe Version MD-909" and I get fairly reliable results! I also hear the Action Replay Converters work well! - - - - - - - - - - Q: Is there a hidden character?, 5 seems like a odd number. A: Well it is an odd number silly, but no there is no hidden character! - - - - - - - - - - Q: I heard Link (Legend of Zelda Series) and Samus Aran (Metroid Series) have cameos in this game? A: Well very small ones. Link is found by staying in the Rose Town Inn after getting the 2nd Star, he will be sleeping in the other bed when you wake up, if you talk to him he will play the Room Clear sound from most of the Zelda games (I don't think it's in The Adventure of Link). Samus Aran is found sleeping in the Guest Room inside the Mushroom Kindgom Castle after getting the 5th Star. - - - - - - - - - - Q: Have you hacked any Pro Action Replay codes? A: Well only a couple but there good! If I make more I'll create a PAR section or file. Note these codes haven't been *fully* tested, so use them at your own risk. 7EFA9D45 - Mario's current armour becomes the Super Suit. 7EFA91E7 - Invincible Battle Party 7EFA9203 7EFB11E7 7EFB1203 7EFB91E7 7EFB9203 7EFA0C63 - Unlimited Flower Points in battle __________________ |Gameplay Questions| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Q: I was speaking to someone in the game and then the game suddenly jammed, the music is still playing and the screen is still animated, but Pressing "A" won't continue with the dialogue.

A: These are the Mushrooms that you get from Treasure Boxes that cause the screen to flash. They refill all of the Party's HP and FP. - - - - - - - - - - Q: What is a "Invincibility Star"? A: This Star makes Mario invincible for a short time, meaning any enemies he runs into will be automatically defeated and Mario will get the Ex.Pts he would have got for defeating them normally in a battle. - - - - - - - - - - Q: How do the Slot Machine Boxes in Land's End work? A: The first hit starts them up, then you have to hit them 3 more times to stop all the rollers, here is a table of prizes: 3 Mushrooms: A Frog Coin 3 Flowers: A Frog Coin 3 Stars: A Frog Coin 2 Mushrooms and a Star or a Flower: A "Recovery Mushroom" 2 Flowers and a Mushroom or a Star: A Flower 2 Star and a Mushroom or a Flower: A Rock Candy None matching: Fight with Box Boy - - - - - - - - - - Q: What are the Flowers that jump to my characters during battle after I defeat something? A: These are Bonus Flowers and they are not added to your FP, but they have a variety of effects on the game they are: HP MAX | Character recovers all HP ONCE AGAIN | Character gets another turn in Battle ATTACK UP | Attack power increases DEFENSE UP | Defensive power increases FREEBIE | You can use that item again LUCKY | After battle you will play the Egg Game - - - - - - - - - - Q: What is an "Abnormal Condition", and how do they effect your party?

A: Well I find the easiest way by far is in the Kerokero Sewers, simply walk around and fight as many things as possible, apart from getting Coins from defeating enemies (get the Coin Trick for even better results) you also are likely to get Pure Water from defeating Hobgoblins and Big Boos, and you can sell Pure Water for a massive 75 Coins. Other good places to accumulate coins are the Treasure Boxes in Rose Way (Enter from Rose Town not Tadpole Pond), By jumping on the first Wiggler in the Forest Maze and By selling the Goodie Bag for 555 Coins. - - - - - - - - - - Q: In what order do I look at the 2nd lot of paintings in Booster's Tower? A: Scotish, Yellow Cap, Pirate, Mr. T, Magician and Viking. If you can't recognise the paintings from that description here is their order represented visually: _ _ _ _ _ _ |4| |5| |3| |6| |2| |1| Ż Ż Ż Ż Ż Ż - - - - - - - - - - Q: I can't go anywhere new and Mallow wants me to talk to Frogfucius, but all Frogfucius does is sulk and talks about how he needs a snack? A: Can you remember why Mallow needed that Frog Coin from Croco? Whoa.. I answered a question with a question.. freaky! - - - - - - - - - - Q: No really, I don't know what to do! Do I need to get a snack for Frogfucius? A: Yes, just head back to the Mushroom Kingdom Item Shop. Mallow will swap the Frog Coin you retrieved from Croco, for a Cricket Pie. If you give the Cricket Pie to Frogfucius, he will give you the Froggie Stick (which is an outdated weapon by now) and will open up the path to Star Way. - - - - - - - - - - Q: I want to buy all the items from Frogfucius' ex-pupil in the Seaside Town Elder's House, where and how do I accumulate Frog Coins easily? A: Well if you have access to Land's End I suggest you play Scale the Cliff (enter Land's End from Bean Valley to get their faster), and then practice until you can scale the cliff in under 11 seconds so you get 5 Frog Coins (see the Mini-Games section for a Strategy) or by jumping on a single Shogun from the sand whirlpools head 3 times in a row. If you don't have access to Land's End the best way to get Frog Coins is to jump onto a single Wiggler's back 10 times in the Forest Maze. Also you can get the Cricket Jam from the Kero Sewers via the smoking cave in Land's End, then give it to Frogfucius and he'll give you 10 Frog Coins. Also you can sell the Bright Card to the mushroom person standing by the entrance of the Marrymore Hotel for 10 Frog Coins (He will offer you 100 coins, then 5 Frog Coins, you need to turn down both offers). - - - - - - - - - - Q: What is the password in the Sunken Ship? A: PEARLS - - - - - - - - - - Q: I can't find the Grate Guy Casino, where is it? A: You get to the Grate Guy Casino from the Bean Valley. In the area with the Shy Away that waters the Piranha Plants. Wait for the Shy Away to water the top Pirahna Plant then jump on it, defeat it, then go down the pipe. Kill the gold Chomp Chomp down there then jump around this corner until you hear a sound, then jump 2 more times in that spot. Now jump on the platform and jump up ontop of that wall then head up through the passage. There will now be a new path to Grate Guy's Casino. - - - - - - - - - - Q: I'm having trouble with Smithy and/or Culex, and I think it's because my party need to be at higher levels, where is a good place to gain Ex.Pts? A: In the "Gate" there is a section were lots of blue mushroom looking things called "Ameboid"s appear, defeat them all the exit, re-enter and fight them all again, as long as you kill an Ameboid on you first turn they will be easy and you get 17 Ex.pts for each Ameboid. ______________ |Item Questions| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Q: Should I sell the Goodie Bag? A: Well you get 1 coin per use of the Goodie Bag and you can sell it for 555 Coins, so you would have to use it more then 555 times for it to be worth keeping. So in other words you should sell it! - - - - - - - - - - Q: Where do I get the Lamb's Lure? A: The Lamb's Lure is not found, it's made. To make it get the Mystery Egg from the Treasure Hunter in Moleville and the B'Tub Ring from Item Shop inside the Marrymore Hotel for 145 Coins. Then equip the B'Tub Ring onto Toadstool and get her to use the Mystery Egg 10 times in battle. Voila! - - - - - - - - - - Q: Where do I get the Bright Card? A: Go to Booster's Tower after defeating Booster and climb it until you see Knife Guy, know talk to him and play his "Juggling" game. Keep playing his game until he gives you the Bright Card (you have to be winning a lot). - - - - - - - - - - Q: I killed Culex but all I got was the "Quartz Charm", what does it do? A: What does it do? What does it do? A hell of a lot, it increases the user's Attack Power by 100% and the user's Defence by 100%, not to mention it guards the user from mortal blows. - - - - - - - - - - Q: How do I get the Lazy Shells? A: You need to give the Gardener in Rose Town the Seed and the Fertilizer, he only appears after talking to the mouse in Monstro Town. The Seed is dropped by the Shy Away after you beat the Megasmilax and the Fertilizer is acquired by walking along the east edge of Nimbus Land after deafeating Valentina, you should find a invisible walkway that leads to the Shy Away that gives you the fertilizer. After planted a magical and mysterious vine will grow, if you climb it you will find yourself in the clouds where you will find the two Treasure Boxes that contain the shells. =============================================================================== 5)WALKTHROUGH =============================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- i)The Blue Star ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _____________ |Bowser's Keep| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Well Mario starts off in Bowser's Keep doing what he does best (saving women from mutated turtles). Anyway, head up (um.. just to make sure there are no misunderstanding with the walkthrough because of the isometric view, here is what each direction means in relation to the screen: Up= North West, Down= South West, Left= North West and Right= South East. Anyway, head up through the big red doors. It doesn't really matter if you fight the Terrapins, as you get nothing from the battles; so just hold "Y" and dodge them on the way to the next door. But... when you get to the big red doors the Terrapins will ambush you and you will have to fight four of them, simple tap "A" a lot and Mario will punch them all out. Now head up through the next red door. The next room is purely for show, so just continue on and watch the bridge collapse from behind you. Head up in this room until Mario looks up at Bowser on his chandelier. Now Mario's First-Battle (kinda) will start. ------------------------------------ BOWSER: 320 HP "Mario! It's time!" KINKLINK: 50 HP "" ------------------------------------ Attacking Bowser is futile.. but attacking the Kinklink works like a charm! Press the Y Button to use a special technique, then press Y Button again to select "Jump", now press any direction on the Control Pad to move the cursor to the Kinklink, then press the Y Button again and Mario will jump on the Kinklink. If you do this twice the Kinklink will begin to fidget and Bowser's chandelier will begin to fall. ------------------------------------ Now Bowser plays dirty and he throws two hammers at the Kinklink that's holding up Mario's chandelier, so now Mario's chandelier begins to fall as well and when it gets to the same level as Bowser's (physically impossible), Bowser swipes at Mario but Mario counterattacks causing him to be flung up to the Princess. But as Mario climbs up to save the Princess the castle begins to shake and a sword thrusts itself into Bowser's Keep, this causes the Seven Stars of the Star Road to shower all over the Mushroom Kingdom and it also causes Mario to be flung out of the Keep and into his house, the "Pipe House". ___________ |Mario's Pad| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ After Toad does his little one-liner (err.. I'll show him how to use a door) press "B" so Mario jumps off the clothes peg. Now exit the Pipe House and talk to Toad pacing outside, he will insist you go and retrieve the Princess from Bowser's Keep. So walk left and jump on the Save Point (the shiny box with the "S" on it) then head right and exit to Bowser's Keep. _____________ |Bowser's Keep| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Mario goes to the front door of the Keep, but he is greeted by Exor the giant sword that flung itself into the Keep. It tells Mario to get lost and destroys the only bridge to Bowser's Keep. So now go back to Mario's Pad. ___________ |Mario's Pad| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Go into the Pipe House and talk to Toad gazing out of the window, Mario will explain what happened then Toad will run away! So go outside and exit this area ... but Toad runs into you flinging you back. He gives you a Mushroom to say sorry. Now Toad basically goes through a tutorial so just answer his question and do what he tells you to do, at the end of it he'll give some Mushrooms. Now save and exit to Mushroom Way. ____________ |Mushroom Way| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Simply follow the path and kill all the Goombas and Sky Troopas you can, simply punch them out. There are two Treasure Boxes in this first section the first one has 5 Coins and the other has 8 Coins, simply jump repetitively under the boxes to get all the coins. Before you exit this section save Toad from the Goomba that has cornered him, you will get a Honey Syrup for your troubles. Now go to the next section. As soon as you walk into the next section a Goomba will ambush you, let it! you need the Ex.Pts. Now walk up and jump on the Goomba spinning around on a pink flower, then jump on the flower and when your facing the left ledge press the B Button (be quick or Mario will get dizzy), now hit the Treasure Box up there, it contains a Flower. Now jump back down onto the spinning flower and press the B Button when your facing the right ledge, then Jump up at the Sky Troopa that has captured Toad and defeat it. Toad will reward you with a Flower Tab, so use it straight away. Near the exit is a Treasure Box, walk under it and wait for the Goomba to attack you. Then jump up and and get the contents, a "Recovery Mushroom". Now go to the next section. This section has a Lakitu that throws Spikies down at Mario, fight them until you get to level 3 then walk up to the Hammer Bro that has captured Toad, and initiate a battle. --------------------------------------- HAMMER BRO: 50 HP "I love my hammer!" HAMMER BRO: 50 HP "I love my hammer!" --------------------------------------- Two timed Jumps each should be enough to defeat them, but they may take more if you are weak or if they use "Valor Up" which increases their defence. You get a Flower Jar, 20 Coins and 6 Ex.Pts. for beating them, and... --------------------------------------- One of the Hammer Bros. leaves their Hammer behind so immediately equip it and use the Flower Jar, now exit to the Mushroom Kingdom. ________________ |Mushroom Kingdom| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ You can go explore around this town, but before you enter the castle make sure you save in the Inn. Once your finished exploring enter the castle get ready as the next bit is tricky, after talking to Toad quickly jump on his head and just as he is about to exit the room jump above the doorway, now jump again to hit the Surprise Box with a Frog Coin (If you fudge it up hold L & R then press Select and Start simultaneously, this will reset the game so you can try again) Now follow Toad to the Chancellors Room, after Mario explains what happened to the Chancellor he will tell Mario to save the Princess, he'll give him a Map and he will tell you to go to the Vault. Also if you haven't equipped the Hammer he will get Toad to explain how so do so if your lost. Now in the main hall way, go right and talk to the Vault Guard standing in the staircase. Now hit the 3 boxes, you will get 10 Coins, a Flower & a Recovery Mushroom. Now go back up the stairs and head left going through the door way on the opposite side of the hallway, now head up the stairs and continue heading up until you get to "Toadstools Room". There is nothing much to do here, but if you search the chair at the back of the room you will find "Toadstool's ???", but as soon as you find it Toadstool's Grandma will quickly swap it for a Mushroom. So now exit the castle. As you walk out of the castle you will see a marshmallow called Mallow chasing a crocodile that has stolen his coin, he then starts crying which causes it to rain. So walk up to him and talk to him and he will ask you to help him get his Frog Coin back, so help him and he will join your party. Now head to the Item Shop, after explaining to the Shopkeeper that his Frog Coin has been stolen, Mallow will get a Pick Me Up from the sympathetic Shopkeeper. Now from the Shop buy a Shirt, Pants, Jump Shoes and an Antidote Pin, if you can't afford all that don't worry. You can buy a lot from this shop here is a list, but I suggest you stock up on Honey Syrups. Mushroom | 4 Honey Syrup | 10 Pick Me Up | 5 Able Juice | 4 Shirt | 7 Pants | 7 Jump Shoes | 30 Antidote Pin | 28 Now go down the stairs in the back of the shop and talk to the man down there, do what he says and you will uncover a Surprise Box with a Flower inside. There is another box in this room but it is a little tricky, go back up the stairs to the shop then go back down to this room, now jump on the guy's head and wait until he walks near the top right corner then jump up to it and you will uncover a Treasure Box with another Flower inside. Now exit the Inn and talk to the Mushroom Retainer jumping up and down outside, Croco runs to Bandit's Way so save in the Inn then exit to Bandit's Way. ____________ |Bandit's Way| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ In the first section simply follow Croco to the next section, if you get in any battles in Bandit's Way just use Mario's Hammer and Mallow's Thunderbolt, the only enemies that may cause you trouble are Frogogs so always make Mario attack them first. In the next section there is spinning flower, so jump on it and press "B" when you facing the ledge. Now jump from the yellow platform to yellow platform collecting Coins on the way, then from the ledge they take you to jump down on to the spinning flower and when Mario is facing the blue stationary flower press "B" you will get a Kerokero Cola (sometimes it doesn't work so just persevere until it works). Then head up to the next section, follow Croco while fighting enemies on the way to the nest section, there is a Treasure Box with a "Recovery Mushroom" being guarded by a K-9 to the right before the path to the next section. In this section there are two yellow platforms, jump on the right one then jump at the Treasure Box you will get a "Invincibility Star" so now run into as many K-9's as you can, you will almost certainly level-up. To get to the other Treasure Box jump on the right yellow platform then when the other platform is to the right (screen wise) of Mario jump to it, repeat until you get to the Treasure Box it has a Flower inside. Now exit right to the next section. You have cornered Croco, firstly make sure Mario and Mallow are at least Level 4, so fight enemies around here until you are! Then hit the Treasure Box at the top of this section for a "Recovery Mushroom". Now you can go after Croco you have to sneak up behind him 3 times in order to fight him! His pattern is simple, he runs behind a island of foliage then he waits for four seconds, then he faces the other direction and waits for four seconds and then he runs behind another island of foliage, repeat! After catching him 3 times you will have to fight him... --------------------------------- CROCO: 320 HP "Gosh, I'm good!" --------------------------------- Croco is fairly easy, just get Mario to use Fire Orb on him and Mallow should use HP Rain, Mushrooms and Honey Syrup when necessary, but he should use Thunderbolt when he's not busy healing as his punch is very weak. The first time Mario uses Fire Orb Croco will skip a go since he will be dousing a tail fire. After you cause enough damage Mallow will click the shits and he'll pound the Frog Coin out of Croco. You get 8 Ex.Pts, 10 Coins, a Flower Tab for defeating Croco --------------------------------- Croco also drops a wallet, now jump onto the trampoline that falls from the sky, then save from the nearby save point and exit to the Mushroom Kingdom. ________________ |Mushroom Kingdom| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ When you come back the Mushroom Kingdom it is all gloomy and it's overridden with Shysters. Quickly walk up to the Mushroom Retainer being chased by a Shyster, after defeating the Shyster with Mario's Hammer and Mallow's Thunderbolt attacks the Mushroom Retainer will give Mario 10 coins. Now go inside the Item Shop and read the note on the counter, now stock up on items you need (Honey Syrup is very useful soon). Now leave the shop and save the blue mushroom person below from the Shyster, then give him back his Wallet and he will give you a Flower Tab. You might as well save the guy that gets you to jump and Raz and Rani from the Shysters, but don't expect anything from them. Now go inside the double storey house just below the castle, then defeat the two Shysters jumping on the furniture. Now you must go upstairs and save the boy up there from the Shyster, then the father will give you a Flower Tab. Now exit the house and go inside the castle, quickly run ahead and fight the Shyster chasing Toad. Now you have to clear the way to Toadstool's Room for Toad. In the room with stairs and two Shysters you only have to defeat the left Shyster to clear the room. After Toad gets to Toadstool's Room tell him (You bet) and you will get another Flower Tab. Now use your little collection of Flower Tabs you have accumulated. Talk to the Princesses Grandma to get fully healed then save. Now go back to the hallway and head left, then go up to the Guest Room and talk to the Vault Guard shaking in terror in the corner, he will give you the Wake Up Pin. So equip Mallow with it, then head down until your in the Vault, you can hit the Treasure Boxes again to get 10 Coins, a Flower & a Recovery Mushroom. Now make your way to the Chancellor's Room, after crashing their party Mario will have to fight Mack the Knife and his Bodyguards. ----------------------------------------- MACK: 480 HP "Boing, boing, boing." and an unlimited supply of: BODYGUARD: 30 HP "Boing, boing, boing." ----------------------------------------- I hope your at Level 6, cause if you are this is a breeze! Mario should use his Hammer and Mallow should use his Thunderbolt special. The first time Mallow uses Thunderbolt on Mack he will lose a go since he will be stunned. There is a trick of leaving one Bodyguard alive so the Bodyguards regenerate, but this is useless IMHO since they die as zoom as Mallow uses Thunderbolt, so they never get to touch you anyway. If Mack jumps up out of sight don't worry, he'll be back soon. You get 12 Ex.Pts and 20 Coins for defeating Mack the Knife and his Bodyguards. ----------------------------------------- Now the Blue Star will float to Mario. Congratulations! After the Shysters do their incoherent dialogue walk up to the Chancellor shaking in the corner and talk to him. Now after a little talk with the Chancellor, Mallow will suggest to go to the Tadpole Pond to see his grandfather. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Could Mack the sword-like ~ ~ monster who crashed into ~ ~ Mushroom Kingdom, have ~ ~ anything to do with the ~ ~ Star Piece Mario found....? ~ ~ Our heroes move on towards ~ ~ the Kero Sewers ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ii)The Green Star ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ________________ |Mushroom Kingdom| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Go to the Item Shop and get Mallow his Cricket Pie. Also stock up on Mushrooms, Honey Syrup, Able Juice and Pick Me Ups (at least have two of each in your inventory. Now save in the Inn, before you leave jump on the kid running in circles in the bottom right corner of town something slightly funny will happen. Now exit and go to the Kero Sewers. ___________ |Kero Sewers| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Go down the green pipe (tap down). Now jump on the Save Box, then jump into the water and swim right and up. To get out of the water go were the water is shallow and press "B". The note near the pipe tells you the basics of pipe travel, so read it if your lost. Then go down the pipe, then drop down to the Pipe to the right and go down it. Now follow the path to the next pipe killing The Big Boo on the way, then go down the pipe. In the next room drop off to the right and jump up the stairs to get to the Treasure Box, but once you hit it Pandorite appears. Use Mario's strongest Jump attack and get Mallow to punch it as his Thunderbolt special does nothing. After the Pandorites defeated you'll get 10 Ex.Pts, 30 Coins, a Flower Jar and a Trueform Pin, but that's not all exit the room and re-enter, then hit the Treasure Box Pandorite was in multiple times to get 50 Coins. To get back up to the higher level, climb the steps that go to the Pandorite box, then walk down until you drop down one step, then jump up to the higher level. Now go up this zig-zagging section many Rat Funks will ambush you on you way up. Hit the Box on the way up for a Flower then go down the pipe at the end of the path. In the next section walk down and hit the Treasure Box, you get an "Invincibility Star" so quickly run left and run into the four Rat Funk's, then run due west and go down "Invincibility Star" would have probably died out by now so now go down the pipe at the bottom of the thin pathway. Jump up to the platform with the stationary Rat Funk then jump over his head to the pipe below and go down it. Now go up the stairs on your left and jump on the green exclamation button, then drop down and go down the pipe you came up from, then drop down to the pipe that was submerged before and go down it. Now head up and hit the Treasure Box to get a "Recovery Mushroom" then jump on the nearby save box. Now go down the ahead, then walk up to the ugly looking dog it's Belome. So get ready for a battle. ----------------------------------------- BELOME: 500 HP "I just...wanna sleep." ----------------------------------------- This guy is pretty simple to beat if your on a reasonable level, Mario should use his strongest Jump attack while Mallow should be the designated healer and item user but try to get him to use Thunderbolt mainly. Belome usually swallows Mallow half way through the fight, but don't worry he will spit him out after a couple of turns or after you've dealt enough damage. It doesn't really matter if he turns you into a Scarecrow as Physical Attacks aren't as effective as special attacks, it will only hinder you if you need to use a Item. After a while Belome will say "If you defeat me, you STILL won't beat me! Beware the flood!" which indicates you have defeated him. ----------------------------------------- Belome was sitting on a switch that controls the flood gates, so by defeating him you have made the switch pop up and lots of water rush in. The water sweeps our heroes into the .... ___________ |Midas River| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Toad gives you a little tutorial at the start of each of the sections, so let him teach you if your lost. For a in-depth guide to this Mini-Game scroll down to (Section 6: MINI-GAMES & SIDE-QUESTS). After you get to the end of this Mini-Game the caretaker will give you a Frog Coin for every 60 Coins you collected and he will also give you the "Nok Nok Shell". So equip Mario with it straight away, then exit and go to the Tadpole Pond. ____________ |Tadpole Pond| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Walk up and stand on the lone stone and then some tadpoles will appear followed by a mystical flying frog err.... actually it's Frogfucius. Now jump across the bridge of tadpoles and talk to Frogfucius on his island. After listening to his pearls of wisdom and the revelation that Mallow isn't a tadpole (whoa didn't see that one coming) go and talk to him again, you will give him the Cricket Pie which will cheer him up enough to give you the Froggie Stick. So equip it onto Mallow and go back across the Tadpole Bridge. To the left is the "Frog Coin Emporium" and the "Juice Bar", but you don't have a membership card yet and your Frog Coin supply is to precious for later, so go right instead into the Melody Bay. If you want to do this yourself read the canvas on Frogfucius' island then talk to Toadofsky to get a small tutorial on music, but if not just see (Section 6: MINI-GAMES & SIDE-QUESTS) for the solutions. After you play Frogfucius' Suite #18 to Toadofsky you'll get the Alto Card from him, which gives you a wider selection and better prices at the Juice Bar. Now save then see what's in the "Frog Coin Emporium" here is a list of their inventory: (In Frog Coins) Sleep Bomb | 1 Bracer | 2 Energizer | 2 Crystalline | 5 Power Blast | 5 then visit the Juice Bar, here is price list with the all the different cards: | None | Alto | Tenor | Soprano | --------------+------+------+-------+---------+ Froggie Drink | 16 | 14 | 12 | 8 | Elixir | --- | 48 | 36 | 24 | Megalixir | --- | --- | 90 | 60 | Kerokero Cola | --- | --- | --- | 200 | Now exit to Rose Way. ________ |Rose Way| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Just for Rose Way take the Jump Shoes off Mario and put on the Wake Up Pin as the Shyguys' Doom Reverb and the Snapdragons' Pollen Nap can cause you trouble. Rose Way is full of yellow platforms bu the act different, read the note at the start for a explanation. Jump on the first block then jump to the next block when they meet up, after this platform floats to an island jump off to get a "Recovery Mushroom". Now jump back on the platform then when it meets up with the next platform jump to it. Stay on this platform till it takes you to an island with a Flower, so collect the Flower and jump back on the platform. This platform will take you to a platform you should jump on that takes you to the entrance to the next section. In this section firstly defeat the Shyguys on the swinging platforms, then jump from platform to platform to get to the Box with a Frog Coin. If the platforms get out of sync jump up in front of one to hold it back, if you keep on doing this you will eventually get them in sync. Now exit this section and jump on the platform, stay on it until it takes you to the entrance of the next section (If you time it right you can jump up to collect the coin floating above the path of this platform). But anyway on to the next section, the Crooks in this section are worth fighting they usually run away, but if you defeat then they'll give you a fair amount of coins. There is also a Lakitu with a Shyguy at the end of his fishing line, if you defeat the Shyguy at the end of his line around 5 time he'll drop a "Recovery Mushroom" down at you, now exit to the next section. Jump on the yellow platform, firstly it travels down so jump on it again so it goes left, now jump to the next platform while collecting the coin. Now on the next platform time your jump so you collect the coins suspended above the path of the platform, but don't jump to the next platform, instead go back and jump on the last platform, then ride this platform so it goes to land then down to the next platform you have to jump to. This platform takes you to an island with a coin (so collect it) then to the entrance to the next section. The next section is a free for all, so collect as many coins as you can and fight as many enemies as you can before exiting to the next section. The next section has nothing but a little "cinema" showing Bowser's fading army. Now exit and go to Rose Town. _________ |Rose Town| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ As soon as you enter Rose Town go in the Inn on the west side of the town. Inside the Inn is a little boy playing with section figures, his name is Gaz. Play with him and watch the unfolding events involving a wooden doll called Geno. As soon as Mario wakes up save and head downstairs, listen to Gaz and his mum's conversation then exit the Inn. In the top right corner of Rose Town is an Item Shop, climb the crates on it's right side and go down it's chimney. Now hit the Treasure Box up there for a Flower, then jump up along the cupboard to the top left to uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin inside. Now buy some supplies from the two people inside, the mushroom boy on the left sells these items: Mushroom | 4 Honey Syrup | 10 Pick Me Up | 5 Able Juice | 4 the mushroom girl on the right sells this equipment: Thick Shirt | 14 Thick Pants | 14 Jump Shoes | 30 Antidote Pin | 28 Wake Up Pin | 42 Trueform Pin | 60 Fearless Pin | 130 So I would buy the Thick Shirt, Thick Pants and Fearless Pin from the girl, and I would stock up on all items especially Able Juice as the enemies in the Forest Maze use lots of "Abnormal Condition" attacks. Equip the Thick armours on our heroes and equip the Fearless Pin on Mallow then sell the old armour. Now exit and talk to the guy wandering in the top left corner of town, he has been cut off from his own house so jump on his head and up into is house. The two boxes in house contain Flowers at the moment but after you make the stairs appear they will contain coins, so go upstairs jump on the switch then jump on the bed to get a Frog Coin. Now exit the house and talk to the guy, he will give you directions for the Forest Maze that are: Left, Left, Straight, Right. Now exit to the Forest Maze. ___________ |Forest Maze| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ As soon as you enter the Forest Maze jump in the bottom left corner to uncover a Surprise Box with a Kerokero Cola. There are lots of Mushroom around here but pick them with caution as they could be an enemy called Amanita disguised. Go left to the next section, there is a constant march of Wigglers coming from the hollow in a stump, every time you jump on a Wiggler you'll get a Coin but if you jump on a single Wiggler 10 times you'll get a Frog Coin. Go down the stump (like a pipe) and make your way through the cave while watching out for Amanita and jump on the trampoline at the end. As soon as you emerge from the tree hollow walk left (NW) and jump to hit a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin inside. Now go up and left to the next section, this section has 7 hollow stumps with Wigglers coming out of them. Go down the bottom right stump and jump in the middle of the large light patch near the bottom for a Flower, now jump on the trampoline and go down the middle left stump. Now jump in the light coloured corner above the trampoline to uncover a Surprise Box with nothing! inside. Now jump on the trampoline and go down the last stump, then jump behind the sleeping Wiggler being careful not to touch him to uncover a Surprise Box with a Kerokero Cola. Then wake the sleeping Wiggler by touching it, you will be flung out of the cave but a new path will be open so go through it and down the stump that the Wiggler goes down. Now follow this cave to the next section fighting some Rat Funk's and Amanita's on the way, then in the next section make your way to the trampoline and jump on it. Now head up and save but jump in the top right corner before the exit to uncover a Surprise Box with Red Essence inside. Now head up, this is why this Forest is a Maze, head in the direction the man told you but follow them in Mario's perspective, so from our perspective you'd go left, down, down then left. Now go down the stump and hit the 5 boxes to get random items that are always either Frog Coins, Flowers or Recovery Mushrooms. Now jump on the trampoline and exit back into the maze and go right, up, up, right, up, left following Geno. Now walk forward and watch Mario, Mallow and Geno get in a fight with Bowyer the Bow who has the Green Star. ------------------------------------------- BOWYER: 720 HP "What's with these folks?" ------------------------------------------- Get Geno to use his Geno Beam, Mario to use his Nok Nok Shell and Mallow to be the designated healer and item user. After the first turn Bowyer will start blocking button, so that strategy is only limited to the buttons you can use but always give priority to the actions above. Note that Mallows Thunderbolt special does minimal damage. After Bowyer is defeated you will get 20 Ex.Pts, 50 Coins and a Flower Box. ------------------------------------------- Now Geno will explain who he is and the mystery of the stars and Mario will get the Green Star. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ The secret to the shooting ~ ~ stars has been unravelled. ~ ~ Find the Star Pieces, and ~ ~ bring them back to Mario's ~ ~ World. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- iii)The Orange Star ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ___________ |Forest Maze| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Exit to Rose Town. _________ |Rose Town| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Look Rose Town is all cheery now! So go into Gaz's House (Rose Town Inn) and talk to Gaz. After Geno tries to explain the concept of shooting stars to Gaz, he will give Geno a Finger Shot. So Equip Geno with the Finger Shot and the Trueform Pin, now exit and go to the Pipe Vault. __________ |Pipe Vault| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Go down the pipe. Now head up jumping over the lava to get to the next section, time your jumps to avoid Sparkies if you wish. The next section is fairly easy simply jump over Goombas and jump when the Thwomp is about to hit the ground, then go down the 2nd pipe. Go down the next pipe, now run up ahead collecting coins and when you get to the end press down to duck under and get the Frog Coin, then jump on the trampoline. Go down the last pipe again (two back). Now walk three blocks up and jump to uncover a hidden platform, so jump on it then up to the higher platform. Now go four blocks ahead and jump to uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin, now go another four blocks ahead and jump up to uncover another Surprise Box with a Flower, now jump down on the trampoline. Now go down the next pipe this takes you to the "Goomba Thumpin' Mini-Game" (see the Mini-Game section for a in-depth look at it). Now go down the last pipe, just jump across the platforms and avoid the Piranha Plant in the red pipe. Watch out for the "Walking Piranha Plants" (that's they're real name seriously, I checked the Super Mario Bros. 3 Instruction Booklet) as you will lose 2 coins every time you come in contact with them. Now head down the green pipe at the end of this section. In the next section jump up on the floating platform and hit the Box above it to get a Flower. Then make your way to the next moving platform that is above the Walking Piranha Plants, the Box above this platform is not worth hitting more then once or twice as you will lose more coins in the process, if you try for more. Continue on you way to the next pipe and go down it to emerge in Yo'ster Isle. ____________ |Yo'ster Isle| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Save after you emerge from the pipe then jump behind the Save Point to uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin inside, then head down to the main section of Yo'ster Isle. Talk to Yoshi near the bottom right corner of the island and jump on him, he now will be your interpreter. Now go and talk to the Red Yoshi near the top of the island and tell him (Of Course) he will give you some Cookies. Now go down and talk to the Blue Yoshi with shades (Boshi), you will get in a race with him. Now Toad will give you a little tutorial on the Mushroom Derby (see the Mini-Game section for a in-depth look at it) before you start racing, if you win you'll get some Yoshi Cookies and you will be able to play the proper Mushroom Derby whenever you want to. If you lose you will have to talk to the Red Yoshi again to get Cookies then the Boshi to try again. Now exit and go to Moleville. _________ |Moleville| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Go to the Item Shop and buy a Punch Glove, Cymbals and 3 Work Pants. Then equip them all, also stock up on other items, here is a list of what's available: Punch Glove | 36 Finger Shot | 50 Cymbals | 42 Mega Shirt | 22 Mega Cape | 22 Mega Pants | 22 Work Pants | 22 Mid Mushroom | 20 Maple Syrup | 30 Now save in the inn and head up to the mountains you will see the almost vanquished Bowser Army march off, now head left and talk to the mole panicked near the mountains entrance. She explains while gossiping to another mole, that a star has landed in the mine, trapping two kids inside the Coal Mines, now head into the mine. __________ |Coal Mines| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ As you enter the mine, the moles inside are thinking of a way to get to a higher ledge, when they see you they'll ask if you'll save their kids, So choose (Of Course) then jump on their shoulders and then jump up to the ledge above, now go through the doorway and make your way through the room to the next section. This next section has the Treasure Hunter and a teleporting Sparky, talk to the Treasure Hunter then go through the doorway below. Now keep heading up until you get to the trampoline then jump up on it, the only problem is there is no hole above it so Mario whacks his head on the ceiling and gets knocked out. During the time Mario is knocked out, Croco and his Crooks steal all his coins. So start running on the tail, as you corner Croco and his Crooks in the next room he'll bomb a way out. So keep following him. After he bombs yet another wall go down then right and in the next room fight the Crook hiding behind the crate near the end of the room, you get a Flower Tab for defeating him. Now head right to the room with the trampoline, there is another Crook behind the trampoline so defeat it to get another Flower Tab. Now head up to the next room, there is another Crook behind the L-shaped crates so as before defeat him for a Flower Tab. Now wait until Croco runs past or run around this section the way he went the first time (running the opposite way may be faster). Anyhow once you tackle him your in for a battle. -------------------------------- CROCO 750 HP "Ooh! I'm good!" -------------------------------- Mario should use the Punch Glove or Super Jump on Croco, while Mallow should be use Cymbals when he is not healing or using items and Geno should use the Geno Beam. Half-way through the battle Croco will steal your items, so now you must conserve FP for Mallow's HP Rain so everyone should use Physical Attacks now. After he gives up you'll get 10 Ex.Pts, 50 Coins + the Coins he stole, your items and the Bambino Bomb aswell! -------------------------------- Now keep heading left in the mine until you get to the room that has/had a lone Bob-omb then head up and talk to Pa'Mole, he will blow a hole in the rock using the Bambino Bomb. So go through the hole and continue, go through the lower passage and follow the railroad, but.. as you get to the end a Shyguy on a Mine Cart will push you back blocking the lower section and dropping a Frog Coin for you in the process. So now climb the boxes to the higher section and head up, there is a Treasure Box ahead with a "Invincibility Star", so hit it and run up, then head right, jump up the crates, to the higher section and head up now, head left and run into the four Bob-ombs now save, backtrack to the last room and hot the Treasure Box to get 150 Coins. Now go ahead and hit the Treasure Box by the Save Point then save, now jump up on the stack of crates ahead and jump right to get a Flower. Now head up and walk around the guy throwing bombs and walk into his side. He is Punchinello and you have to fight him now.. ----------------------------------------------------------- PUNCHINELLO: 1200 HP "Yeeha! I see we're already famous!" also he produces from his mouth: MIRCOBOMB: 30 HP "Small is as small does" BOB-OMB: 90 HP "Ouch. HEY! Watch it!" MEZZO BOMB 150 HP "Look out!" ----------------------------------------------------------- Mario and Geno should use physical attacks while Mallow should use Thunderbolt to destroy the Bob-ombs. He starts off with Microbombs then after you do enough damage he goes to Bob-ombs, then after you do even more damage he uses Mezzo Bombs then finally once you defeat him he will stomp until a HUGE bomb lands on him. Then coal lands on the wick which causes the bomb to explode. ----------------------------------------------------------- The explosion causes the Orange Star to fall down so Mario can collect it. Now head up to Dyna and Mite who are trying to get a Mine Cart to budge so talk to Dyna then read the guidelines behind you, then your on your way (see the Mini-Game section for an in-depth guide to Moleville Mountain). _________ |Moleville| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ After the old mine track leads off a cliff Mario, Dyna and Mite land through Ma' & Pa'Moles roof safely, reuniting Dyna & Mite with their parents. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ You've found Dyna, Mite and ~ ~ a Star Piece... ~ ~ But, where is Toadstool!? ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- iv)The Purple Star ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- _________ |Moleville| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ As you walk out of Ma' & Pa'Moles house you see a beetle being chased by some Snifits, it lands on Mario's head and the Snifits try to persuade Mario to hand over the beetle, as they do this they tell Mario that some guy called Booster is entertaining the princess from the sky. After talking to some moles around town you should realise that the princess from the sky is Toadstool. There is a lot of cool stuff in Moleville now, there is the Bomb Shop in the top right corner of town, this gives you bombs for points, you get points by giving them items here is a points table: Able Juice | 10 Bracer | 15 Energizer | 20 Honey Syrup | 4 Kerokero Cola | 40 Maple Syrup | 12 Max Mushroom | 30 Mid Mushroom | 10 Mushroom | 2 Pick Me Up | 2 Pure Water | 25 Red Essence | 50 Royal Syrup | 30 After you trade in 100 points worth of items you can choose between: 1)A "Fright Bomb" which allows you to make one enemy quiver in fright. 2)A "Fire Bomb" for a fire attack against all enemies. 3)A "Ice Bomb" for a ice attack against all enemies. Also there is the Purtend Store but it isn't useful at the present time and also there is an entrance to Molville Mountain on top of the mountain, but you have to pay 10 Coins to get in or wager 30 Coins and if you beat the record you'll get 50 Coins. Go into the Item Shop, the Treasure Hunter from the Coal Mines has opened up a Miner's Store, you can only buy a Lucky Jewel for 100 Coins at the moment though. Now exit and talk to the little mole with the yellow bow near the bomb shop, now enter the mine and head where Pa'Mole used the Bambino Bomb, Then talk to one of the moles and they will start singing: Diggin' deep in the "MI"nes~ "DO"n't get much sun!~ I'm covered with "SO"il~ 'til my work day is "DO"ne~ I "RE"ally hate sititn'~ It's "LA"bor I choose! 'cause them's the "TI"me~ To "DO" them old Molville Blues!~ If you haven't noticed the solfege (Mi, Do, So, Do, Re, La, Ti and then Do) was *hidden* in that song, so exit and go to the Tadpole Pond. ____________ |Tadpole Pond| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Now play the Moleville Blues to Toadofsky to get the Tenor Card if your having trouble see Section 6: MINI-GAMES & SIDE-QUESTS. Now exit and go to Booster Pass. ____________ |Booster Pass| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Booster Pass is full of Lakitus throwing Spikesters, but as soon as your enter Booster Pass look behind the 2nd artichoke plant on your right to get a Frog Coin. Now head to the far left of this section and jump on the artichoke plant up on a hill, then jump again to uncover a Surprise Box with a Flower. Now head right and up, but before you exit to the next section jump to the left of the exit to uncover a Surprise Box with a Rock Candy inside. Now exit to the next section, walk up along the lower section and collect the Flower growing from the ground, then walk holding left along the left side of this section to walk into a little concave, then jump left to land on a switch that fills in all the holes in the higher section which kills all the Spikesters. Now head up and exit and go to Booster Tower. _____________ |Booster Tower| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ You'll find Bowser with no army crying about the good 'ol days at the foot of Booster Tower, after Mario talks to him Princess Toadstool at the top of the tower hears them ad screams down to Mario, then Bowser leaves. Now go up to the front door and press "A", it's locked. So head down but... Bowser comes running in and belts the door down, he then lets you join the "Koopa Troop". So Bowser joins your party, the game will now show you how to switch between characters. So switch Mallow with Bowser and enter the tower. Walk up to Snifit by the desk and engage in a fight by talking to him, then walk left and climb up the blocks to the higher section and take note of the order of the paintings. Now go through the doorway to the next section, then climb up the blocks. This section has a constant supply of Spookums coming from the next doorway, walk to the black square one down from the top left square and jump to uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin inside. Now head to the next section, this is where you meet Booster for the first time, follow the his mini train track to where it exits to find a "Flower Tab", use it immediately then head right to the next section. Climb up the blocks, if you want to avoid the Rob-ombs hug the right wall and jump and run when there is a small gap. Then go into the first door, now in this room jump off from the yellow block o the edge of the platform and fall two spaces to the right. You will land on a teeter- totter which will cause the bob-omb to be flung up and down, thus catapulting you up to the Treasure Box with the Masher, equip it immediately as it is a great weapon. Now exit and make your way back up to the room with the Rob-ombs and this time go through the 2nd doorway. Now jump on the exclamation switch, this opens up a new path in Booster Pass, then go to the next room. This is a little novelty room, go through one curtain and come out the other and you will become "Super Mario" from Super Mario Bros. , once you go to an exit Mario will change back and then head to the next room. Make your way up the platforms and around the Spookums (if you don't want to battle). Then talk to Snifit 3 who is shooting bullets at you, after defeating him go left to the next room. Now using the same method as before for avoiding Rob-ombs (of you don't want to battle) make your way to the next room and save. Then go right to the Ancestor Hall, now walk up to the paintings and press "A" in the order you wrote down before, if you do it right Booster will spit out the Elder Key at you. Use it to open the door with the big key hole on this room, then enter and jump up to get the Chomp, immediately equip Bowser with it. Now exit and go right to the next room, make your way up to the teeter-totter with the Thwomp but before you jump on it hit the nearby Treasure Box to get a "Recovery Mushroom". Jump on the teeter-totter and you will be flung up to the next section. Now go to the bottom left (west) corner of this platform and jump to uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin. Now make your way up the platforms avoiding the para-trooping Spookums (but you really should fight them), on the platform before the stairs go in the gap to the right of the stairs and jump to get a Frog Coin, then climb the stairs and go to the next room. This is the Mine Room, if you walk around on certain squares a instant battle with Fireballs with start you get LUCKY flowers a lot for fighting them, anyhow collect all the coins and the Room Key then go up through the door with the big key hole, this takes you to a room with a Treasure Box that contains the Zoom Shoes. Equip them on Mario then go back down to the Mine Room then left to the next room. Climb up to the next room avoid the Chomp if you wish. In this room Booster comes in on his train and throws Bob-ombs at Mario you can 1) Defeat all Bob-ombs, 2) Run behind hollow painting or 3) Run down to next room, anyhow go to the next room. Make you way up the steps to the next room. In this room climb up the yellow blocks on the right then jump across to on top of the Treasure Box then jump to uncover a Surprise Box with the Goodie Bag. Now drop down and hit the box below to get a Frog Coin. Then jump in the bottom right corner before the exit to uncover a Surprise Box with a "Recovery Mushroom" inside. Now switch Geno with Mallow and save then head to the next room. Now head down and look at the door, you will see Toadstool through the hole, but Booster walks in so Mario runs behind the curtains. Now begins the Hide'n'Seek Curtain Game see Section 6 for further info) if you win you'll get the Amulet if you lose you will have to fight Booster and his Snifits. -------------------------------------------------------- SNIFIT: 200 HP "Minimum wage for THIS?!" SNIFIT: 200 HP "Minimum wage for THIS?!" SNIFIT: 200 HP "Minimum wage for THIS?!" BOOSTER: 800 HP "This is like realizing you're outside without your clothes on! -------------------------------------------------------- Firstly you have to take out all 3 Snifits, use Mallows Thunderbolt to take 'em out, really no big deal! Then you have to fight Booster, just use Physical Attacks on him and get Mallow to use HP Rain when it's needed. Mario's Jump attacks work pretty well too! He should be down in no time. You get 22 Ex.Pts, 145 Coins and a Flower Box for defeating him! -------------------------------------------------------- Now go down and you will have to fight the Guys. --------------------------------------------- GRATE GUY: 900 HP "Peace is just a dream." KNIFE GUY: 700 HP "Happiness is hip!" --------------------------------------------- Mario should use his strongest fire attack available on Knife Guy. Mallow should use Thunderbolt, while using Honey Syrup and HP Rain periodically. And Bowser should just use his Chomp on what ever Gut seems to be taking the least beating. I think when the jump up on each other there power increases so try to attack them furiously at this point, after a while they will buy the farm, so to speak. --------------------------------------------- Now our heroes will jump down and run to Booster Hill to follow Booster. ____________ |Booster Hill| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ You have to compete with Booster in a race to the top of the hill. Booster always wins but you can increase your Flower Points a lot by trying your best. Toad gives you a little tutorial so take it if your lost. Jump on the Barrels to be boosted forward then run into Booster and the Princess to get a Flower. When the Snifits start running amok jump on them to, to get a boost. After you make it to the top it's off to Marrymore. You can always come back here to pick flowers but the real use for Booster Hill is for Beetle Collecting later. _________ |Marrymore| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Now go in the Marrymore Hotel just ahead to the left, stock up on items and buy the Happy Pants, Happy Shirt, Hand Gun and the Whomp Glove. Here is a list of their stock: Super Hammer | 70 Hand Gun | 75 Whomp Glove | 72 Chomp Shell | 60 Happy Shirt | 38 Happy Pants | 38 Happy Cape | 38 Happy Shell | 38 B'Tub Ring | 145 Mid Mushroom | 20 Maple Syrup | 30 The Super Hammer is weaker then the Masher and the Chomp Shell is weaker then the Chomp. Equip the Happy Pants and Happy Shirt on to Mallow and Mario respectively, then equip the Work Pants on to Bowser. As Mario and Mallow have low defence, so the increase in attack you get from the Work Pants is cancelled out by it's inferiority in the defence apartment. Also equip the Hand Gun onto Geno and the Whomp Glove onto Mallow. Accessory wise, Mario should be wearing the Jump Shoes, Bowser the Amulet, Geno the Wake Up Pin and Mallow should wear the Zoom Shoes. Then switch Mallow with Geno. Now go up the stairs in the Marrymore Hotel and go in the first door, then jump on the high bookcase and jump to uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin. You can also rest in this Hotel the Regular Room costs 10 Coins and is a normal rest stop. But the Deluxe Suite costs 150 dollars and you get room service (Pick Me Up for 10 Coins and Kerokero Cola for 150), working shower and a big bed. You also have to pay the bellhop 10 Coins tip whenever you use him (if you don't you wont get a item from him). You get a Flower Tab for staying in the suite the first time, but you also can get items from the bellhop, talk to him at the bottom of the staircase after you have spent the night and tell him (You betcha), he will give you Mid Mushrooms, Pick Me Ups, Max Mushrooms, etc. Depending on how many times you have stayed in the suite and how much you tipped him. Don't worry about Toadstool yet instead exit and go to Booster Pass. ____________ |Booster Pass| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Enter the newly opened section to the left of the Lakitus, now jump across the rock platform avoiding the Spikeys and an apprentice Snifit will attack you. If he beats you (you would have to suck pretty bad) he becomes Snifit 4, you can keep on losing to the apprentices here to make up to Snifit 7. They all go to the top of Booster Tower. Anyway, after beating the apprentice keep heading over the platforms until you get to a platform with three Boxes, hit them to get a Kerokero Cola, a Frog Coin and a Flower. Now exit and go back to Marrymore. _________ |Marrymore| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Now head up to the chapel and talk to one of th guests outside, suddenly Raz & Rani will get kicked out by a Snifit. So go behind the right steeple and you will find a hidden entrance. Now go down the stairs and jump on the cake for shits and giggles. Then go upstairs to the left, now help the Snifit break the door down by running in unison with him, so run up when he touches the ground. You make it through but they close the door on you, so save then walk to the door and press "A". Now help Bowser break the door down the same way you did it with the Snifit. The breaking down of the door causes Toadstool to fly back and all her stuff goes everywhere. Now starts the little mini-game, the only prize being a kiss from Toastool, simply talk to all 3 Snifits to get the Ring, Brooch and Shoe then jump on Boosters head to get the crown, then talk to Booster. Who kisses who relies on how fast you were i.e how many candles lit. 1 to 2 candles lit - Princess kisses Mario, and Bowser kisses Booster. 3 to 4 candles lit - Bowser kisses Mario. 4 to 5 candles lit - Booster kisses Mario. 5 to 6 candles lit - Bower and Booster both kiss Mario. Now the Toadstool is saved, but before you can take her safely to the Mushroom Kingdom you must fight... --------------------------------------- TORTE: 100 HP "Cake! Vatch zee CAKE." TORTE: 100 HP "Cake! Vatch zee CAKE." BUNDT: 900 HP "Congratulations." RASPBERRY: 600 HP "Congratulations!" --------------------------------------- Torte and his apprentice are invincible, so just focus on the cake (Bundt) and hit it with physical attacks, after it moves twice the chefs will get scared and run away. Now just get Mario and Bowser to continue attacking Bundt while Geno uses items to heal, but he still should attack every now and again. As long as you hit him more then twice a turn, you will eventually put out all its candles therefore defeating it. Now you have to fight the lower level of the cake (Raspberry), so just get everyone to use physical attack and eventually Booster and the Snifits will come running in which mean you have deafeated the wedding cake. You get 25 coins for beating it. --------------------------------------- Now after Booster eats the cake, exit this part of the chapel and save. Raz & Rani wil now go in and get married, now exit to the Mushroom Kingdom (If your bored try exiting out of the west exit and tell all the characters "No" eventually they will all gang up and bash Mario. Anyway exit out of the east exit and you will automatically go to the Mushroom Kingdom. ________________ |Mushroom Kingdom| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Now while your in the Mushroom Kingdom talk to the guy you returned the wallet to, he'll give you a Frog Coin. Now head to the Chancellor's Room, after the big reunion and everyone tells their life story, Toadstool leaves the party as fast as she joined it. So exit the castle, but as you exit Toadstool floats down using her parasol and she rejoins your party. So switch Bowser with her immediately. Now go in the Inn and talk to the kid in the top right corner playing a Game Boy, keep bugging him and he'll eventually offer it to you for 500 Coins, you may as well buy it if you have the money 'cause it's pretty fun. You can always come back to buy it. Press "X" after buying it, and the game will show you how to access it, see Beetle Mania in Section 6: MINI-GAMES & SIDE-QUESTS for a in-depth look at it. Now exit and go to the Tadpole Pond. ____________ |Tadpole Pond| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Go talk to Frogfucius, he wil tell you that a star has been sighted on Star Hill.

Wish I had something to eat" you can jump on the yellow elevator platform.

Hit the Brick Block and an old skool beanstalk will grow, so as the game tells you hit it to climb up it. Read the sign to learn how to climb the vines, climb from vine to vine collecting the Coins and Frog Coins on the way to the next section. Climb the red vine to the top and hit the Treasure Box up there to get a Flower. Then climb up the yellow vine and jump on the Birdies head and defeat it to turn it into a platform.

BIRDO: 777 HP "I just love life!" she produces these if you defend: EGGBERT: 10 HP "What a glorious day! -------------------------------------- Attack Shelly till the shell breaks open and Birdo pops out. Once Birdo appears simply use physical attacks on her while Princess uses Group Hug occasionally. Also if you defend the eggs that Birdo shots at you Eggberts will surround Birdo, and if you attack Eggberts they will explode causing 80 Hit Points worth of damage. This isn't practical though cause you could have caused more damage by attacking those turns. Eventually Birdo will give you, giving you around 20 Ex.Pts and 30 Coins. -------------------------------------- Collect the Castle Key 2 that Birdo throws out. Use it to open the door behind the egg by pressing "A", then head up. Fight the Pinwheel immediately or he will blow you off the platform, then jump on the Treasure Box and jump again uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin inside. The Treasure Box you are standing on has a Flower in it, but you will have to drop down to get it which means backtracking back to this room after. Head up to the next room.

Now it goes to the battle between Valentina and the other two, use physical attacks until Bowser and Dodo come back. Then get Mario and Bowser to use physical attacks on Valentina while Mallow heals and uses items. Eventually they will fly away giving you 54 Ex.pts and 200 Coins. ----------------------------------------------- After Valentina flies away a Key lands on Mallow, Mallow uses the key and is re-united with his parents.

Then head down into the Barrel Volcano. ______________ |Barrel Volcano| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Some words of advice for this section: attack the Corkpedites body and use weak magic attacks to defeat Vomer. Switch Bowser for Princess the walk down to the next section. There are some small stepping stones below, follow them to the secret section. Hit the boxes for two Flowers then exit and jump back across the stones. Climb the rocks on left to go up to the next section. Climb up to the next section but avoid the Vomer. Hit the Treasure Box in the next section for a Flower, then head up and hit the next box for loads of coins. Head to the next section. Hit the box for an "Invincibility Star" and quickly run ahead, climb up, then run into the Corkpedite, the star usually runs out around now. Head left to the next section. Head up past the Vomers to the next section. Walk to the left of the lava pool and take a running jump to collect the Frog Coin, then head up to the next section. Jump across the stepping stones to the nest section, but be careful and time your jumps if you want to avoid fighting the Pyrospheres. Go back through the doorway then jump on the lava, you will fly up to the Frog Coin. Now go back into the next section. Jump up the Donut blocks to get to the first Frog Coin, then walk around and jump up to collect the other Frog Coin, now head to the next section. Quickly run left to the next section while avoiding the Magmus the Stumpet shots out at you. Hit the Box to get a Flower then climb up and hit the other box for a Frog Coin, save then head up to the next section. Defeat the Stumpet then head around to the next section. Climb up carefully then head down to the next section. Climb up and fight the Corkpedite, then head left to the next section (are you sick of me saying that yet..) Defeat another Stumpet then head to the next section. Climb up the rocks then hit the box for some coins and talk to the weird looking mushroom person (His name is Hinopio) to enter his Hino Mart. The first store sells items, here is a list: Mid Mushroom | 20 Maple Syrup | 30 Pick Me Up | 5 Able Juice | 4 Freshen Up | 50 The second stall lets you rest for 30 Coins. And the final stall sells you armour. Buy all the Fire armour and equip it all. Here is a useless list: Fire Shirt | 90 Fire Pants | 90 Fire Cape | 90 Fire Shell | 90 Fire Dress | 90 Once your finished head out of the door to the right. Now save and head up, make your way across the Donut bridge very carefully to the next section were you fight... -------------------------------------------------- CZAR DRAGON: 1400 HP "Flamin' hot, right at ya!" ZOMBONE: 1800 HP "Hey! We're not done yet!" -------------------------------------------------- Get Mario to use physical attacks, Mallow to use Snowy and Toadstool to use physical attacks when she is not using Group Hug or items. When Czar is down he will resurrect himself as Zombone. Use the same strategy on Zombone except use Shocker instead of Snowy. Once he is down you get 50 Ex.Pts. -------------------------------------------------- Now Zombone is defeated. Head up to the next section, you are about to get the Red Star but the Axem Rangers swipe it. Chase them all the way out of the Barrel Volcano, then you must fight them on their huge ship called Blade. Go, go, Axem Rangers! -------------------------------------------- AXEM PINK: 400 HP "Red, WRONG POSITION!" AXEM BLACK: 550 HP "You're timing stinks!" AXEM RED: 800 HP "I'm all thumbs today." AXEM YELLOW: 600 HP "We're lookin' GOOD!" AXEM GREEN: 450 HP "Are we done here?" AXEM RANGERS: 999 HP "It's a melee!" -------------------------------------------- The best strategy is to bring them down one by one, while Toadstool heals periodically. Firstly go for Axem Pink using physical attacks, her healing special is too much of a threat. Once she is down go for Axem Black, Mario and Toastool should use physical attacks while Mallow uses Shocker. Then go for Axem Green, do the same as you did for Black but use Snowy instead of Shocker. Then go for Axem Yellow Mario should use Super Jump on him while the other attack physically. Finally take out Axem Red by using the same modus operandi as Axem Green. Once they are all down the will form up as Axem Rangers which uses the disastrous Breaker Beam every three or so turns. Get Toastool to use Group Hug every time the Beam is discharged and attack using Shocker and phyical attacks. Eventually they will submit, giving you a whopping 17 Ex.Pts. -------------------------------------------- Blade crashes into the background and Mario is awarded the Red Star. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 6 Star Pieces have finally ~ ~ been collected. Where could that ~ ~ last Star Piece be? ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- vii)The Yellow Star ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ___________ |Nimbus Land| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Now go into the Castle and talk to Mallows parents, they will let you use the Royal Bus. So now exit the castle and head left to the Royal Bus Station and talk to the engineer. You will now get a lift to Bowser's Keep. _____________ |Bowser's Keep| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Firstly switch Mallow with Bowser, as he will make some of the more annoying enemies run away. Head up to the room where you fought Bowser at the very start of the game, the bridge that fell down has been replaced by Donut Blocks. Now head up to a very dark room, navigate your way through the darkness to the next section (there is a Box with a "Recovery Mushroom" in there somewhere). The next room has Croco, but he is making himself useful by selling hot gear, head through the doorway in the bottom left corner first as there are two Treasure Boxes with 150 Coins and a "Recovery Mushroom", then go and talk to Croco here is his inventory: Mid Mushroom | 20 Maple Syrup | 30 Pick Me Up | 5 Freshen Up | 50 Fire Shirt | 90 Fire Pants | 90 Fire Cape | 90 Fire Shell | 90 Fire Dress | 90 Now head up to the next room, This contain the 6 Doors (see Section 6 for info on clearing this part). Once you have completed 4 Courses head right to the next room, you will drop down into a room with a Save Box, so save then head up where you will fight... -------------------------------------------- MAGIKOOPA: 1600 HP "That's...my child?" he summons these with his magic: JINX CLONE: 320 HP "I'm the REAL thing!" KING BOMB: 500 HP "I LIVE to explode!" BAHAMUTT: 500 HP "Give me a chance, here." -------------------------------------------- It's not so much Magikoopa that will cause you trouble here, it's the monsters he summons. Get everyone to use physical attacks on him while Toadstool heals, just keeping attacking him and his monsters until you nock enough sense into him, you get around 10 Ex.pts and Coins for your victory. -------------------------------------------- After Magikoopa turns back to his proper blue colour and Bowser and him reminisce. He will produce a Magic Tresure Box that never runs out of coins, talk to him to be rejuvenated fully. Now go in the door on the left, inside Croco is selling more goods buy all the special armour and equip it, here is a list: Mid Mushroom | 20 Maple Syrup | 30 Pick Me Up | 5 Freshen Up | 50 Hero Shirt | 100 Prince Pants | 100 Star Cape | 100 Heal Shell | 100 Royal Dress | 100 Once your finished exit and go through the right door, in this room simply run up while avoiding Thwomps and fighting Big Berthas to the next room. Walk up in the next room to fight Boomer on the Chandeliers. ---------------------------------------- BOOMER: 2000 HP "It's all over now..." ---------------------------------------- He is a cinch, just use physical attacks when he is blue in colour and use special attacks when he is red in colour. Toadstool should be the designated healer as per usual.

LEFT EYE: 300 "I can't see a thing!" NEOSQUID: 800 "I'm so utterly alone..." RIGHT EYE: 500 "I've got an astigmatism!" ------------------------------------------- Get Toadstool to heal nearly every turn, Bowser should attack Neosquid while Mario uses Ultra Jump. Once at least one of the eyes has been taken out, attack Exor with a bombardment of physical attacks. If the eyes wake up again quickly use Mario's Ultra Jump, Bowser's Bowser Crush and Toastool's Psych Bomb. Once Exor is defeated you will get 34 Ex.Pts then you will be sucked into his mouth with a wall of fire. ------------------------------------------- Exor's mouth leads to the Gate. ____ |Gate| ŻŻŻŻ NOTE: To find out what you should get in preperation for Smithy, please scroll to the end of this sub-section.

Once it is out of order take out the Ding-a-lings (sounds rude) the same way. You get 67 Ex.pts and 100 Coins for defeating them. ---------------------------------------------------- Now save and jump on the trampoline. Head up and jump on the conveyor belt and hit the box to get a "Recovery Mushroom" , then drop down onto the white slate platform and walk onto the next platform when they meet, then jump off onto the conveyor belt when you get close (it doesn't matter if you jump off as you will land, into a secret section just head up and hit the boxes for a Flower and a "Recovery Mushroom"), Anyway head up to the next section. Run past the conveyor belts spewing out a constant stream of enemies and head up to the next section. Follow the conveyor belts and the path to a Treasure Box, hit it to get a Royal Syrup. Head down on the conveyor belt and jump on the white slate platform, jump off to the next conveyor belt when it gets close. Head left and hit the Treasure Box for a Max Mushroom, then head up to the next section. Make your way up the conveyor belt stairs fighting machine made Bowyers on the way up. Follow the path to another set of conveyor belt stairs, scale them then head up to the next section and save. Head up again, ignore the enemies and head to the top left corner into a small section with two boxes containing a Flower and a "Recovery Mushroom". Head back and fight the machine made Yaridovich, after defeating him the grey brick block that was blocking the hole explodes. Jump down and you will fight... -------------------------------------------- CLOAKER: 1200 HP "I love cold hard steel!" DOMINO: 900 HP "MAGIC! DEAL with it!" and either... EARTH LINK: 2500 HP "What a royal pain!" or MAD ADDER: 1500 HP "I'm alive and kicking. -------------------------------------------- If you defeat Cloaker first you will fight Domino riding Mad Adder and if you defeat Domino first you will fight Cloaker riding Earth Link. I personally think you should defeat Cloaker first (use physical attacks while Toadstool heals). Then attack Mad Adder (don't bother attacking Domino) until he is defeated and you get around 40 Ex.pts. -------------------------------------------- Now head left into the Factory. _______ |Factory| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Head up and dispose of the Mad Mallets the Clerk sicks on you, then fight him: ------------------------------------------ CLERK: 500 HP "10 years I've been here!" MAD MALLET: 200 HP "Work, work, work..." MAD MALLET: 200 HP "Work, work, work..." ------------------------------------------ Extremely easy, just take out the Clerk with physical attacks then if the Mad Mallets don't run off take them also out with physical attacks. You get 24 Ex.pts and 21 Coins for defeating him. ------------------------------------------ After Mario saves Mallow from the crane head up.. Toad will suddenly appear stocked to the eyeballs with goods (~_~ opportunist) here is his inventory: Mid Mushroom | 10 Max Mushroom | 39 Maple Syrup | 15 Pick Me Up | 3 Able Juice | 2 Freshen Up | 25 Froggie Drink | 8 You get a Rock Candy for shopping, now head up to the next room to fight.. ---------------------------------------------- MANAGER: 800 HP "25 years of working, sigh." POUNDER: 180 HP "Wham bam SLAM!" POUNDER: 180 HP "Wham bam SLAM!" POUNDER: 180 HP "Wham bam SLAM!" ---------------------------------------------- Use the same method as Clerk and his Mad Mallets. You get 41 Ex.pts and 46 Coins for defeating him. ---------------------------------------------- Then head up and fight the Director.. --------------------------------------------- DIRECTOR: 1000 HP "I just lost EVERYTHING." POUNDETTE: 150 HP "Love conquers ALL." --------------------------------------------- Use the same modus operandi as the last two, you may have to heal if you suck. You get 61 Ex.pts and 92 Coins for defeating him. --------------------------------------------- Now head up and save, then head up to the next room to fight... ------------------------------------------------------- FACTORY CHIEF: 1000 HP "Who DARES to fight ME?!" GUNYOLK: 1500 HP "If we're beaten, the boss is alone! ------------------------------------------------------- As soon as you begin get Geno to cast Geno Boost on Mario and Toadstool to cast Mute onto Gunyolk (this will prevent the Breaker Beam). Now use physical attacks on them while Toadstool heals and eventually they will be defeated, giving you 60 Ex.pts and 100 Coins. ------------------------------------------------------- Now head back down and save, now for some preparation. You should have these Items: 4×Max Mushrooms, 4×Royal Syrups, 3×Crystalline, 3×Power Blast, 4×Pick Me Up, 4×Kerokero Cola and the Star Egg. And your party should be equipped like so: Mario - Lazy Shell, Super Suit or Hero Shirt and the Attack Scarf. Geno - Star Gun, Star Cape and the Scrooge Ring. Toadstool - Frying Pan, Royal Dress and the Safety Ring. then head up and jump on the switch to fight Smithy... --------------------------------------------- SMITHY: 2000 HP "Eh?! Not bad!" SMELTER: 1500 HP "I brush after each meal!" who produces on mass: SHYPER: 400 HP "Ooh! This'll be fun!" --------------------------------------------- Okay! The penultimate battle! Okay start off buy using Crystalline and Power Blast. Now get Mario to use the Lazy Shell on Smelter while Geno uses his Geno Blast special and Toadstool attacks the Smelter with her Frying Pan (while using Group Hug when needed). When Smelter is down get everyone to use physical attacks on Smithy. You know this battle is finished when Aero and Drill Bit jump down to calm Smithy down, which aggravates him more. --------------------------------------------- So he bangs the ground so hard the floor gives way and everyone falls down to an ominous landscapem were you have the ultimate battle against Smithy's true form a metamorphosing, chrome plated, cyborg, mean, bastard of a blacksmith. ------------------------------------------------------------- SMITHY: 8000 HP > Default Head - "This isn't good at all!" Tank Head - "Don't shock me! DON'T!" Magic Head - "Good magic, bad defense." Vault Head - "Nothin' can hurt me!" Box Head - "What's hidden inside?!" SMITHY: 1000 HP "What a heavy head!" ------------------------------------------------------------- Smithy's head changes constantly (It's a bit annoying). Just get Mario to use the Lazy Shell, Geno to use Geno Flash and Toadstool should use items and Group Hug when needed, but she should also use the Frying Pan when she is free. Also Mario should use Ultra Flame if his head is the Treasure Box. After a while he will die and the final star will be Mario's. ------------------------------------------------------------- NOW WATCH THE HAPPY LITTLE ENDING! ^_^ =============================================================================== 6)MINI-GAMES & SIDE-QUESTS =============================================================================== __________________ |The Surprise Boxes| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Side-Quest Reward(s): Mixed All the locations of the Surprise Treasure Boxes are in the walkthrough, but if for some reason you've missed some here is a list (cut & paste job): 1: The first time you enter the castle in the Mushroom Kingdom you'll talk to Toad who has been waiting for you, so after talking to Toad quickly jump on his head and just as he is about to exit the room jump above the doorway, now jump again to hit uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin.

Once you do 30 or more jumps in a row using the Super Jump go and talk to the Chow in Monstro Town, he will give you the Attack Scarf. Also if you do 100 jumps in a row see him again to get the Super Suit. Getting the Super Suit is *THE* most challenging thing in the game. For tips on super jumping, I suggest you look at "Rotaj Russell's Guide to Super Jumping FAQ" that can be viewed at GameFAQ's. His FAQ goes more in-depth then I could/would ever go on the subject of Super Jumping. ___________ |Midas River| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Mini-Game Reward(s): Frog Coins and Flowers SPECIAL CONTROLS: Control Pad- Move left and right in the Rapids Course B Button- · Swim against current in the Rapids · Jump during Barrel Jumping Event COST: The trampoline costs 30 Coins to use. RAPIDS COURSE: You start from "START" if your coming from the Kero Sewers or the trampoline, you start from the "ALT*START" if your coming from the bucket in Moleville. The biggest mistake people make in the Midas River Course is tapping the B button really fast, this may make you journey faster but it makes it much harder. You can manoeuvre from one side of the river to the other quite easily by hitting the button at about 3 strokes per 2 seconds. The only time you should tap the button really fast is when you are trying to scale up the bank from the other side of a fork. For example take the first fork in the river, the only way to get the coin that is just down the right stream of the fork is to drop down and get it, then stroke slowly to the left to get to the bank, then tap "B" furiously while holding left so you can scale the bank to get to the left stream of the fork. Look below for a Map and the grotto guide.

You emerge from this grotto at point 2. * Cave C takes you to a grotto were Mario gets forked by a Forkie and loses coins. You emerge from this grotto at point 3. * Cave D takes you to a grotto were a Lakitu is fishing and a Goombette retrieves a fish for their Goomba family. Mario gets a Frog Coin in this grotto and he emerges at point 4. * Cave E takes you to a grotto were a Crook is being harassed by Thwomps, you get a Flower in this grotto and you emerge at point 5. BARREL JUMPING EVENT: The Barrel Jumping Event is quite easy. Just bump into the first barrel, then jump to the second, then jump to the third, then bump in the fourth and repeat. So in other words: Bump, Jump, Jump, Bump, Bump, Jump, Jump, Bump, Bump, Jump, Jump, Bump, Bump, Jump and Jump. Watch out for fish as you will lose coins if you get hit by them. EXCHANGE RATES: At the end of the Midas River the operator will swap you Frog Coin(s) for how many coins you collected, any coins that are not exchanged for Frog Coins are kept by him and will be added to how many coins you collect next time you try the Midas River Course. The exchange rates are related to how many coins you collect on your way down. Except the first time you go down were it is always 1 Frog Coin for 60 coins. The exchange rates are as follows: > 69 Coins = 1 Per 80 Coins 70 - 79 Coins = 1 Per 75 Coins 80 - 89 Coins = 1 Per 70 Coins 90 - 99 Coins = 1 Per 60 Coins 100 Coins = 1 Per 50 Coins __________ |Melody Bay| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Mini-Game Reward(s): Alto Card, Tenor Card and Soprano Card. PLAYING THE SONGS: Firstly go to the rock in front of the bay, now a tadpole will appear and it'll swim back and forth up and down the staff. Then you press "B" when the tadpole is in the right place on the staff, and Mario will jump on the tadpole. Now continue pressing "B" when the tadpoles are in their right places until Mario gets to the other side of the bay. Two of the songs are given in to you in Solfege, which means the note syllables (Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, and Ti). Here is the relation of these notes to the Melody Bay Staff: - - - - - Mi Re - - - - - Do Ti - - - - - La So - - - - - Fa - - - - - FROGFUCIUS' SUITE #18: So La Mi Re Do Re Do Re - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - - - - - O - - - O - - - O - O O - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - O - O - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - MOLEVILE BLUES: Mi Do So Do Re La Ti Do - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - - - - - - - O - - - - - - - O O O - - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - O - - - - - O - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - STAR LULLABY: La Ti Do Re So Do Re Mi - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - - - - - O - - - - - O - - - O O - - - O - - - - - - - - - - - - - O - - - - - - - - - O - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - _________________________ |Goomba Thumpin' Mini-Game| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Mini-Game Reward(s): Frog Coins and Flower Products RULES: This Mini-Game cost 10 coins to play. In it you have to jump on as many Goombas as possible, you get 1 point for jumping on a Goomba, 3 for jumping on a Gold Goomba and you lose 1 point for jumping on a Spikey. You get 30 seconds to get more then the goal, and if you get more then the goal 2 more then your score becomes the next goal. STRATEGY: The best idea is to stay in the middle and try to do as many multiple bounces as possible, to do this hold "Y" and manoeuvre so after jumping on one Goomba you land on the next. This is easiest between the top pipe and the bottom pipe. To get as many prizes as possible never get more then the Goal, match it instead. The goal starts at 20 points, so you match the 2O pts and you'll get a Flower Tab and the new Goal will be 22 points. Then you'll match the 22 pts and you'll get a Flower Jar and the new Goal will be 24 point. Now continue with the strategy (all prizes after this are Frog Coins). ______________ |Mushroom Derby| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Mini-Game Reward(s): Yoshi Cookies STARTING THE RACE / BETING: Well to play you need Yoshi Cookies, if you don't have any Yoshi Cookies talk to the Red Yoshi that is between the two huts on the left side of the race track. Then go talk to Boshi and select that you want to race. Now he will tell you Yoshi's odds, then you can select either to race Yoshi (compete) or watch Yoshi (leave up to chance), then he will ask you how much you want to wager. The Wager determines how much you will be payed off according to Yoshi's odds but it also determines how much you will lose if Yoshi doesn't win. For Example, If Yoshi's odds are 2:1 and you wagered 3 Cookies, the payoff is calculated by 2×3 which of course equals 6, pretty easy huh? RACING: Winning the race is basically down to rhythm, The best technique is to hold the controller so you hold it kind of like a GameBoy (think of the Control Pad as the GameBoy's screen), just cradle the button end of the Controller with your hands and rest your left thumb on the B Button and your right thumb on the A Button. Now press the two buttons alternatively to the rhythm of the cymbals in the background of the music. If you think you will panic if your losing don't look at the screen, as it will put your rhythm off indefinitely. __________________ |Moleville Mountain| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Mini-Game Reward(s): Coins SPECIAL CONTROLS: Control Pad- Turn the Mine Cart left and right A Button- Brake B Button- Jump X Button- Boost if you have a Mushroom Y Button- Brake COST: If it's your first time on this Mini-Game it's free but after that it costs you 10 Coins if you want to use the shortcut, you can also wager 30 coins and if you beat your hi-score you get 50 Coins.

LOCATED: After saving Toadstool go into Booster Tower and head up until you find Knife Guy, talk to him to play his Juggling Game. RULES: Knife Guy juggles balls at a random speed for a random amount of time, once he finishes you have to walk at which hand the yellow ball lands in. He awards you Wilt Shrooms first, then when you get better he awards you Rotten Mushes, then Moldy Mushes. If win enough he will award you the Bright Card & Max Mushrooms. STRATEGY: My strategy is not to follow the yellow ball as you will most likely lose it. This best idea is to stare blankly at the screen focused on Knife Guy's head so that your eyes only detect the movement of the balls, it seems easier this way to judge which hand it lands in. Don't ask me why! ____________ |Beetle Mania| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Mini-Game Reward(s): Nada, Zip, Zilch and Nothing! HOW TO PLAY: You control a small beetle that shoots stars when you press "A", the aim of the game is to shoot Koopa shells for points. Then when they explode stars fly out from them, if these stars hit another Koopa shell it will explode, thus creating a chain reaction. Each time this happens the points you get from exploding them doubles. So it goes from 1 to 2 to 4 to 8 to 16 to 32 ect. Also every time you get about 15,000 points, a heart will fall down. If you grab this heart it will be easier for you to regenerate after being hit by a Koopa shell or star, To regenerate tap "A" furiously. BACKGROUNDS: If Geno or Princess are the 1st ally in your party it will be Clouds. If Bowser or Mallow are the 1st ally in your party it will be a forest level from Super Mario World. ___________ |Beetle Race| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Mini-Game Reward(s): Coins and Frog Coins HOW TO START: After defeating Yaridovich go into the bottom left store in Seaside Town, this is Beetles Are Us and it is the office for Beetle Racing on Booster Hill. The initiation fee is 100 Coins then for every time you rent a Beetle Box it's an extra 50 Coins. Buy a Beetle box then go to Booster Hill to compete in Beetle Racing. STRATEGY: Simply jump on as many barrels as you can to get a boost forward, you will have to time your jumps by using the sound the barrel makes when you get close to the edge of the screen. When the Snifits start running ahead jump on them for a boost forward too. And finally, only jump when you are either jumping on something to get a boost or collecting a beetle. As jumping slows you down marginally. TRADING IN: After you collect some beetles head back to Beetles Are Us and talk to the snifit inside.

Make your way through the cave. Just after the first Geckit is a stack of crates jump left (screen wise) of the crates to hit a Treasure Box with Frog Coin inside. After the Chow in the top left corner of this section jump to uncover a Surprise Box with a Frog Coin inside.

Now exit, head to the right and talk to the little girl mole by the crates, swap the Fireworks for the Shiny Stone. Now go to Monstro Town and press "A" at the sealed door to open it. Now enter to fight Culex. DEFEATING CULEX AND HIS CRYSTALS: -------------------------------------------------- CULEX: 4096 HP "A little off, eh?" FIRE CRYSTAL: 2500 HP "I gotta vacuum tonight! WATER CRYSTAL: 1600 HP "Get me back underground! EARTH CRYSTAL: 3200 HP "I hate being awakened!" WIND CRYSTAL: 800 HP "Whhhhhhooooo... -------------------------------------------------- You will need the Lazy Shell, the Safety Ring, the Star Egg, around 3 Maple Syrups and some Energizers. Now have Geno & Toadstool in your team and equip the Lazy Shell and Safety Ring on Toadstool, this will make her almost impenetrable to all of their attacks (But Culex's physical attack & Dark Star will still take out a fair whack). Now as soon as the battle starts get Geno to cast Geno Boost on the Princess. Now get Geno and Mario to attack Culex with physical attacks until they die, when this happens don't revive them. The basic idea is to get Princess to use the Star Egg constantly for 150 HP worth of damage on all enemies. She will also need to use Therapy when her HP gets low, Maple Syrups when her FP gets low & Energizer whenever Culex casts Shredder to keep the damage caused by the Star Egg to 150 HP. Eventually the crystals will die or run out of FP, if all enemies on screen run out of FP use "Come Back" on Mario & Geno and get them to join in using the "Star Egg" as well. Once they are all defeated you get 244 Ex.pts and the Quartz Charm. With this strategy it is possible to beat them at Level 15, but Level 20 is far more safer. _____________ |Hide the Flag| ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ Type: Side-Quest Rewards(s): Ghost Medal HOW TO PLAY: In Monstro Town enter the door two in from the right side of town.

Have Toadstool equip the Safety Ring. Have a couple of Mid Mushrooms, Maple Syrups, Pick Me Ups, Crystalline and Power Blasts in stock when fighting these guys. Also remember you don't have to take Jagger and all 3 rounds with Jinx on in one go. -------------------------------------- JAGGER: 600 HP "Oh! I'm so excited!" -------------------------------------- Easy. Just get everyone to use physical attacks while Toadstool heals. He should be down in no time. ---------------------------------------- JINX: 600 HP "You're just a beginner!" ---------------------------------------- Jinx is much harder then Jagger, but in the first round he holds back and only uses Jinxed and Valor Up. Use the same strategy as Jagger, but heal more often. ---------------------------------------- JINX: 800 HP "Sympathy!? Not from me!" ---------------------------------------- Things start to heat up! Now he uses Silver Bullet which can easily kill your party off in 3 turns. Use Crystalline and Power Blast at the start of the round then lay into him with physical attacks, Toadstool should use Group Hug almost every turn. ----------------------------------------- JINX: 1000 HP "Ooh! I'm gonna hurt ya!" ---------------------------------------- Oh my God! Now he uses Bombs Away which inflicts serious damage. Use Crystalline and Power Blast right away, then lay into him like before. Keep all your party members alive by getting Toadstool to use "Group Hug" every turn. If you want to defeat him easily get the Lazy Shell armour and the Star Egg, then equip the Lazy Shell onto Toadstool and keep using the Star Egg on him until he dies.
