$0:1:6:30:200:

Wow! You're smack in the

middle of the battlefield.

You'll find the Power

Stars that Bowser stole

inside the painting

worlds.

First, talk to the

Bob-omb Buddy. (Press }

to talk.) He'll certainly

help you out, and so will

his comrades in other

areas.

To read signs, stop, face

them and press }. Press {

or } to scroll ahead. You

can talk to some other

characters by facing them

and pressing }.*



$1:1:4:95:200:

Watch out! If you wander

around here, you're liable

to be plastered by a

water bomb!

Those enemy Bob-ombs love

to fight, and they're

always finding ways to

attack.

This meadow has become

a battlefield ever since

the Big Bob-omb got his

paws on the Power Star.

Can you recover the Star

for us? Cross the bridge

and go left up the path

to find the Big Bob-omb.

Please come back to see

me after you've retrieved

the Power Star!*



$2:1:4:95:200:

Hey, you! It's dangerous

ahead, so listen up! Take

my advice.



Cross the two

bridges ahead, then

watch for falling

water bombs.

The Big Bob-omb at the

top of the mountain is

very powerful--don't let

him grab you!

We're Bob-omb Buddies,

and we're on your side.

You can talk to us

whenever you'd like to!*



$3:1:5:95:200:

Thank you, Mario! The Big

Bob-omb is nothing but a

big dud now! But the

battle for the castle has

just begun.

Other enemies are holding

the other Power Stars. If

you recover more Stars,

you can open new doors

that lead to new worlds!

My Bob-omb Buddies are

waiting for you. Be sure

to talk to them--they'll

set up cannons for you.*



$4:1:3:95:200:

We're peace-loving

Bob-ombs, so we don't use

cannons.

But if you'd like

to blast off, we don't

mind. Help yourself.

We'll prepare all of the

cannons in this course for

you to use. Bon Voyage!*



$5:1:3:30:200:

Hey, Mario! Is it true

that you beat the Big

Bob-omb? Cool!

You must be strong. And

pretty fast. So, how fast

are you, anyway?

Fast enough to beat me...

Koopa the Quick? I don't

think so. Just try me.

How about a race to the

mountaintop, where the

Big Bob-omb was?

Whaddya say? When I say

#Go," let the race begin!



Ready....



    Go!        Don't Go*



$6:1:3:30:200:

Hey!!! Don't try to scam

ME. You've gotta run

the whole course.

Later. Look me up when

you want to race for

real.*



$7:1:5:30:200:

Hufff...fff...pufff...

Whoa! You...really...are...

fast! A human blur!

Here you go--you've won

it, fair and square!*



$8:1:4:30:200:

BEWARE OF CHAIN CHOMP

Extreme Danger!

Get close and press ^\

for a better look.

Scary, huh?

See the Red Coin on top

of the stake?



When you collect eight of

them, a Power Star will

appear in the meadow

across the bridge.*



$9:1:5:30:200:

Long time, no see! Wow,

have you gotten fast!

Have you been training

on the sly, or is it the

power of the Stars?

I've been feeling down

about losing the last

race. This is my home

course--how about a

rematch?

The goal is in

Windswept Valley.

Ready?



    Go         Don't Go*



$10:1:4:30:200:

You've stepped on the

Wing Cap Switch. Wearing

the Wing Cap, you can

soar through the sky.

Now Wing Caps will pop

out of all the red blocks

you find.



Would you like to Save?



    Yes        No*



$11:1:4:30:200:

You've just stepped on

the Metal Cap Switch!

The Metal Cap makes

Mario invincible.

Now Metal Caps will

pop out of all of the

green blocks you find.



Would you like to Save?



    Yes        No*



$12:1:4:30:200:

You've just stepped on

the Vanish Cap Switch.

The Vanish Cap makes

Mario disappear.

Now Vanish Caps will pop

from all of the blue

blocks you find.



Would you like to Save?



    Yes        No*



$13:1:5:30:200:

You've collected 100

coins! Mario gains more

power from the castle.

Do you want to Save?

    Yes        No*



$14:1:4:30:200:

Wow! Another Power Star!

Mario gains more courage

from the power of the

castle.

Do you want to Save?



    You Bet    Not Now*

$16:1:3:30:200:

Hop on the shiny shell and

ride wherever you want to

go! Shred those enemies!*



$17:1:4:30:200:

I'm the Big Bob-omb, lord

of all blasting matter,

king of ka-booms the

world over!

How dare you scale my

mountain? By what right

do you set foot on my

imperial mountaintop?

You may have eluded my

guards, but you'll never

escape my grasp...



...and you'll never take

away my Power Star. I

hereby challenge you,

Mario!

If you want the Star I

hold, you must prove

yourself in battle.



Can you pick me up from

the back and hurl me to

this royal turf? I think

that you cannot!*



$18:1:4:30:200:

I'm sleeping because...

...I'm sleepy. I don't

like being disturbed.

Please walk quietly.*



$19:1:2:30:200:

Shhh! Please walk

quietly in the hallway!*



$20:1:6:95:150:

Dear Mario:

Please come to the

castle. I've baked

a cake for you.

Yours truly--

Princess Toadstool*



$21:1:5:95:200:

Welcome.

No one's home!

Now scram--

and don't come back!

Gwa ha ha!*



$22:1:2:95:200:

You need a key to open

this door.*



$23:1:3:95:200:

This key doesn't fit!

Maybe it's for the

basement...*



$24:1:5:95:200:

You need Star power to

open this door. Recover a

Power Star from an enemy

inside one of the castle's

paintings.*



$25:1:4:95:200:

It takes the power of

3 Stars to open this

Bwa ha ha!*



$30:1:6:30:200:

Hello! The Lakitu Bros.,

cutting in with a live

update on Mario's

progress. He's about to

learn a technique for

sneaking up on enemies.

The trick is this: He has

to walk very slowly in

order to walk quietly.







And wrapping up filming

techniques reported on

earlier, you can take a

look around using ^] and

^[. Press ^/ to view the

action from a distance.

When you can't move the

camera any farther, the

buzzer will sound. This is

the Lakitu Bros.,

signing off.*



$31:1:5:30:200:

No way! You beat me...

again!! And I just spent

my entire savings on

these new Koopa

Mach 1 Sprint shoes!

Here, I guess I have to

hand over this Star to

the winner of the race.

Congrats, Mario!*



$32:1:5:30:200:

If you get the Wing Cap,

you can fly! Put the cap

on, then do a Triple

Jump--jump three times

in a row--to take off.

You can fly even higher

if you blast out of a

cannon wearing the

Wing Cap!



Use the ^ Buttons to look

around while flying, and

press < to land.*



$33:1:6:30:200:

Ciao! You've reached

Princess Toadstool's

castle via a warp pipe.

Using the controller is a

$34:1:6:30:200:

Good afternoon. The

Lakitu Bros., here,

reporting live from just

outside the Princess's

castle.



Mario has just arrived

on the scene, and we'll

$35:1:5:30:200:

There are four camera, or

#^," Buttons. Press ^\

$37:1:2:30:200:

I win! You lose!

Ha ha ha ha!

You're no slouch, but I'm

a better sledder!

Better luck next time!*



$38:1:3:95:200:

Reacting to the Star

power, the door slowly

opens.*



$39:1:4:30:200:

No visitors allowed,

by decree of

the Big Bob-omb



I shall never surrender my

Stars, for they hold the

power of the castle in

their glow.

They were a gift from

Bowser, the Koopa King

himself, and they lie well

hidden within my realm.

Not a whisper of their

whereabouts shall leave

my lips. Oh, all right,

perhaps one hint:

Heed the Star names at

the beginning of the

course.

    --The Big Bob-omb*



$40:1:3:30:200:

Warning!

Cold, Cold Crevasse

Below!*



$41:1:3:30:200:

I win! You lose!

Ha ha ha!



That's what you get for

messin' with Koopa the

Quick.

Better luck next time!*



$42:1:4:30:200:

Caution! Narrow Bridge!

Cross slowly!





You can jump to the edge

of the cliff and hang on,

and you can climb off the

edge if you move slowly.

When you want to let go,

either press < or press

the Control Stick in the

direction of Mario's back.

To climb up, press Up on

the Control Stick. To

scurry up quickly, press

the { Button.*



$43:1:5:30:200:

If you jump and hold the

{ Button, you can hang on

to some objects overhead.

It's the same as grabbing

a flying bird!*



$44:1:5:95:200:

Whooo's there? Whooo

woke me up? It's still

daylight--I should be

sleeping!



Hey, as long as I'm

awake, why not take a

short flight with me?

Press and hold { to grab

on. Release { to let go.

I'll take you wherever

you want to go, as long

as my wings hold out.

Watch my shadow, and

grab on.*



$45:1:6:95:200:

Whew! I'm just about

flapped out. You should

lay off the pasta, Mario!

That's it for now. Press

{ to let go. Okay,

bye byyyyyyeeee!*



$46:1:5:30:200:

You have to master three

important jumping

techniques.

First try the Triple Jump.



Run fast, then jump three

times, one, two, three.

If you time the jumps

right, you'll hop, skip,

then jump really high.

Next, go for distance

with the Long Jump. Run,

press < to crouch then {

to jump really far.



To do the Wall Kick, press

{ to jump at a wall, then

jump again when you hit

the wall.



Got that? Triple Jump,

Long Jump, Wall Kick.

Practice, practice,

practice. You don't stand

a chance without them.*



$47:1:2:95:200:

Hi! I'll prepare the

cannon for you!*



$48:1:4:30:200:

Snow Mountain Summit

Watch for slippery

conditions! Please enter

the cottage first.*



$49:1:5:30:200:

Remember that tricky Wall

Kick jump? It's a

technique you'll have to

master in order to reach

high places.

Use it to jump from wall

to wall. Press the

Control Stick in the

direction you want to

bounce to gain momentum.

Practice makes perfect!*



$50:1:4:30:200:

Hold < to crouch and

slide down a slope.

Or press < while in the

air to Pound the Ground!

If you stop, crouch, then

jump, you'll do a

Backward Somersault!

Got that?

There's more. Crouch and

then jump to do a

Long Jump! Or crouch and

walk to...never mind.*



$51:1:6:30:200:

Climbing's easy! When you

jump at trees, poles or

pillars, you'll grab them

automatically. Press { to

jump off backward.



To rotate around the

object, press Right or

Left on the Control Stick.

When you reach the top,

press Up to do a

handstand!

Jump off from the

handstand for a high,

stylin' dismount.*



$52:1:5:30:200:

Stop and press < to

crouch, then press {

to do a high, Backward

Somersault!



To perform a Side

Somersault, run, do a

sharp U-turn and jump.

You can catch lots of

air with both jumps.*



$53:1:5:30:200:

Sometimes, if you pass

through a coin ring or

find a secret point in a

course, a red number will

appear.

If you trigger five red

numbers, a secret Star

will show up.*



$54:1:5:30:200:

Welcome to the snow

slide! Hop on! To speed

up, press forward on the

Control Stick. To slow

down, pull back.*



$55:1:4:30:200:

Hey-ey, Mario, buddy,

howzit goin'? Step right

up. You look like a fast

sleddin' kind of guy.

I know speed when I see

it, yes siree--I'm the

world champion sledder,

you know. Whaddya say?

How about a race?

Ready...



    Go         Don't Go*

s

$56:1:6:30:200:

You brrrr-oke my record!

Unbelievable! I knew

that you were the coolest.

Now you've proven

that you're also the

fastest!

I can't award you a gold

medal, but here, take this

Star instead. You've

earned it!*



$57:1:4:30:200:

Egad! My baby!! Have you

seen my baby??? She's

the most precious baby in

the whole wide world.

(They say she has my

beak...) I just can't

remember where I left

her.

Let's see...I stopped

for herring and ice cubes,

then I...oohh! I just

don't know!*



$58:1:4:30:200:

You found my precious,

precious baby! Where

have you been? How can

I ever thank you, Mario?

Oh, I do have this...

...Star. Here, take it

with my eternal

gratitude.*



$59:1:4:30:200:

That's not my baby! She

looks nothing like me!

Her parents must be

worried sick!*



$60:1:4:30:200:

ATTENTION!

Read Before Diving In!





If you stay under the

water for too long, you'll

run out of oxygen.



Return to the surface for

BRRR! Frostbite Danger!

Do not swim here.

I'm serious.

  --The Penguin*



$62:1:3:30:200:

Hidden inside the green

block is the amazing

Metal Cap.

Wearing it, you won't

catch fire or be hurt

by enemy attacks.

You don't even have to

breathe while wearing it.



The only problem:

You can't swim in it.*



$63:1:5:30:200:

The Vanish Cap is inside

the blue block. Mr. I.

will be surprised, since

you'll be invisible when

you wear it!

Even the Big Boo will be

fooled--and you can walk

through secret walls, too.*



$64:1:5:30:200:

When you put on the Wing

Cap that comes from a

red block, do the Triple

Jump to soar high into

the sky.

Easy as pie, right?





But remember:

Mario can't breathe under

the water! Return to the

surface for air when the

Power Meter runs low.



And one last thing: You

can't open doors that

are underwater.*



$66:1:5:30:200:

Mario, it's Peach!

Please be careful! Bowser

is so wicked! He will try

to burn you with his

horrible flame breath.

Run around behind and

grab him by the tail with

the } Button. Once you

grab hold, swing him

around in great circles.

Rotate the Control Stick

to go faster and faster.

The faster you swing him,

the farther he'll fly.



Use the ^ Buttons to look

around, Mario. You have

to throw Bowser into one

of the bombs in the four

corners.

Aim well, then press }

again to launch Bowser.

Good luck, Mario! Our

fate is in your hands.*



$67:1:5:30:200:

Tough luck, Mario!

Princess Toadstool isn't

here...Gwa ha ha!! Go

ahead--just try to grab

me by the tail!

You'll never be able to

swing ME around! A wimp

like you won't throw me

out of here! Never! Ha!*



$68:1:5:30:200:

It's Lethal Lava Land!

If you catch fire or fall

into a pool of flames,

you'll be hopping mad, but

don't lose your cool.

You can still control

Mario--just try to keep

calm!*



$69:1:6:30:200:

Sometimes you'll bump into

invisible walls at the

edges of the painting

worlds. If you hit a wall

while flying, you'll bounce

back.*



$70:1:5:30:200:

You can return to the

castle's main hall at any

time from the painting

worlds where the enemies

live.

Just stop, stand still,

press Start to pause the

game, then select

#Exit Course."



You don't have to collect

all Power Stars in one

course before going on to

the next.



Return later, when you're

more experienced, to pick

up difficult ones.





Whenever you find a Star,

a hint for finding the

next one will appear on

the course's start screen.



You can, however, collect

any of the remaining

Stars next. You don't

have to recover the one

described by the hint.*



$71:1:3:30:200:

Danger Ahead!

Beware of the strange

cloud! Don't inhale!

If you feel faint, run for

higher ground and fresh

air!

Circle: Shelter

Arrow: Entrance-Exit*



$72:1:5:30:200:

High winds ahead!

Pull your Cap down tight.

If it blows off, you'll

have to find it on this

mountain.*



$73:1:4:95:200:

Aarrgh! Ahoy, matey. I

have sunken treasure,

here, I do.



But to pluck the plunder,

you must open the

Treasure Chests in the

right order.

What order is that,

ye say?





I'll never tell!



    --The Cap'n*



$74:1:5:30:200:

You can grab on to the

edge of a cliff or ledge

with your fingertips and

hang down from it.



To drop from the edge,

either press the Control

Stick in the direction of

Mario's back or press the

< Button.

To get up onto the ledge,

either press Up on the

Control Stick or press {

as soon as you grab the

ledge to climb up quickly.*



$75:1:5:30:200:

Mario!! My castle is in

great peril. I know that

Bowser is the cause...and

I know that only you can

stop him!

The doors in the castle

that have been sealed by

Bowser can be opened only

with Star Power.



But there are secret

paths in the castle,

paths that Bowser hasn't

found.



One of those paths is in

this room, and it holds

one of the castle's Secret

Stars!



Find that Secret Star,

Mario! It will help you

on your quest. Please,

Mario, you have to

help us!

Retrieve all of the

Power Stars in the castle

and free us from this

awful prison!

Please!*



$76:1:6:30:200:

Thanks to the power of

the Stars, life is

returning to the castle.

Please, Mario, you have

to give Bowser the boot!



Here, let me tell you a

little something about the

castle. In the room with

the mirrors, look carefully

for anything that's not

reflected in the mirror.

And when you go to the

water town, you can flood

it with a high jump into

the painting. Oh, by the

way, look what I found!*



$77:1:2:150:200:

It is decreed that one

shall pound the pillars.*



$78:1:5:30:200:

Break open the Blue Coin

Block by Pounding the

Ground with the < Button.

One Blue Coin is worth

five Yellow Coins.

But you have to hurry!

The coins will disappear

if you're not quick to

collect them! Too bad.*



$79:1:4:30:200:

Owwwuu! Let me go!

Uukee-kee! I was only

teasing! Can't you take

a joke?

I'll tell you what, let's

trade. If you let me go,

I'll give you something

really good.

So, how about it?



    Free him   Hold on*



$80:1:1:30:200:

Eeeh hee hee hee!*



$81:1:4:30:200:

The mystery is of Wet

or Dry.

And where does the

solution lie?

The city welcomes visitors

with the depth they bring

as they enter.*



$82:1:4:30:200:

Hold on to your hat! If

you lose it, you'll be

injured easily.



If you do lose your Cap,

you'll have to find it in

the course where you

lost it.

Oh, boy, it's not looking

good for Peach. She's

still trapped somewhere

inside the walls.

Please, Mario, you have

to help her! Did you know

that there are enemy

worlds inside the walls?

Yup. It's true. Bowser's

troops are there, too.

Oh, here, take this. I've

been keeping it for you.*



$83:1:6:30:200:

There's something strange

about that clock. As you

jump inside, watch the

position of the big hand.

Oh, look what I found!

Here, Mario, catch!*



$84:1:3:30:200:

Yeeoww! Unhand me,

brute! I'm late, so late,

I must make haste!

This shiny thing? Mine!

It's mine. Finders,

keepers, losers...

Late, late, late...

Ouch! Take it then! A

gift from Bowser, it was.

Now let me be! I have a

date! I cannot be late

for tea!*



$85:1:5:30:200:

You don't stand a ghost

of a chance in this house.

If you walk out of here,

you deserve...

...a Ghoul Medal...*



$86:1:3:30:200:

Running around in circles

makes some bad guys roll

their eyes.*



$87:1:4:30:200:

Santa Claus isn't the only

one who can go down a

chimney! Come on in!

  --Cabin Proprietor*



$88:1:5:30:200:

For those who get off

here: Grab the pole to the

left and slide carefully

down.*



$89:1:5:95:200:

Both ways fraught with

danger! Watch your feet!

Those who can't do the

Long Jump, tsk, tsk. Make

your way to the right.

Arrow: You are here*



$90:1:6:30:200:

Bwa ha ha ha!

You've stepped right into

my trap, just as I knew

you would! I warn you,

#Friend," watch your

step!*



$91:2:2:30:200:

Danger!

Strong Gusts!

But the wind makes a

comfy ride.*



$92:1:5:30:200:

Pestering me again, are

you, Mario? Can't you see

that I'm having a merry

little time, making

mischief with my minions?

Now, return those Stars!

My troops in the walls

need them! Bwa ha ha!*



$93:1:5:30:200:

Mario! You again! Well

that's just fine--I've

been looking for something

to fry with my fire

breath!

Your Star Power is

useless against me!

Your friends are all

trapped within the

walls...

And you'll never see the

Princess again!

Bwa ha ha ha!*



$94:1:4:30:200:

Get a good run up the

slope! Do you remember

the Long Jump? Run, press

<, then jump!*



$95:1:4:30:200:

To read a sign, stand in

front of it and press },

like you did just now.



When you want to talk to

a Koopa Troopa or other

animal, stand right in

front of it.

Please recover the Stars

that were stolen by

Bowser in this course.*



$96:1:4:30:200:

The path is narrow here.

Easy does it! No one is

allowed on top of the

mountain!

And if you know what's

good for you, you won't

wake anyone who's

sleeping!

Move slowly,

tread lightly.*



$97:1:5:30:200:

Don't be a pushover!

If anyone tries to shove

you around, push back!

It's one-on-one, with a

fiery finish for the loser!*



$98:1:2:95:200:

Come on in here...

...heh, heh, heh...*



$99:1:5:95:200:

Eh he he...

You're mine, now, hee hee!

I'll pass right through

this wall. Can you do

that? Heh, heh, heh!*



$100:1:3:95:200:

Ukkiki...Wakkiki...kee kee!

Ha! I snagged it!

It's mine! Heeheeheeee!*



$101:1:3:95:200:

Ackk! Let...go...

You're...choking...me...

Cough...I've been framed!

This Cap? Oh, all right,

take it. It's a cool Cap,

but I'll give it back.

I think it looks better on

me than it does on you,

though! Eeeee! Kee keee!*



$102:1:5:30:200:

Pssst! The Boos are super

shy. If you look them

in the eyes, they fade

away, but if you turn

your back, they reappear.

It's no use trying to hit

them when they're fading

away. Instead, sneak up

behind them and punch.*



$103:1:4:95:200:

Upon four towers

one must alight...

Then at the peak

shall shine the light...*



$104:1:5:30:200:

The shadowy star in front

of you is a #Star

Marker." When you collect

all 8 Red Coins, the Star

will appear here.*



$105:1:3:95:200:

Ready for blastoff! Come

on, hop into the cannon!



You can reach the Star on

the floating island by

using the four cannons.

Use the Control Stick to

aim, then press { to fire.



If you're handy, you can

grab on to trees or poles

to land.*



$106:1:2:95:200:

Ready for blastoff! Come

on, hop into the cannon!*



$107:1:3:95:200:

Ghosts...

...don't...

...DIE!

Heh, heh, heh!

Can you get out of here...

...alive?*



$108:1:2:95:200:

Boooooo-m! Here comes

the master of mischief,

the tower of terror,

the Big Boo!

Ka ha ha ha...*



$109:1:4:95:200:

Ooooo Nooooo!

Talk about out-of-body

experiences--my body

has melted away!

Have you run in to any

headhunters lately??

I could sure use a new

body!

Brrr! My face might

freeze like this!*



$110:1:5:95:200:

I need a good head on my

shoulders. Do you know of

anybody in need of a good

body? Please! I'll follow

you if you do!*



$111:1:4:95:200:

Perfect! What a great

new body! Here--this is a

present for you. It's sure

to warm you up.*



$112:1:4:30:200:

Collect as many coins as

possible! They'll refill

your Power Meter.



You can check to see how

many coins you've

collected in each of the

15 enemy worlds.

You can also recover

power by touching the

Spinning Heart.



The faster you run

through the heart, the

more power you'll recover.*



$113:1:6:30:200:

There are special Caps in

the red, green and blue

blocks. Step on the

switches in the hidden

courses to activate the

Cap Blocks.*



$114:1:5:95:200:

It makes me so mad! We

build your houses, your

castles. We pave your

roads, and still you

walk all over us.

Do you ever say thank

you? No! Well, you're not

going to wipe your feet

on me! I think I'll crush

you just for fun!

Do you have a problem

with that? Just try to

pound me, wimp! Ha!*



$115:1:5:95:200:

No! Crushed again!

I'm just a stepping stone,

after all. I won't gravel,

er, grovel. Here, you win.

Take this with you!*



$116:1:5:95:200:

Whaaa....Whaaat?

Can it be that a

pipsqueak like you has

defused the Bob-omb

king????

You might be fast enough

to ground me, but you'll

have to pick up the pace

if you want to take King

Bowser by the tail.

Methinks my troops could

learn a lesson from you!

Here is your Star, as I

promised, Mario.



If you want to see me

again, select this Star

from the menu. For now,

farewell.*



$117:1:1:95:200:

Who...walk...here?

Who...break...seal?

Wake..ancient..ones?

We no like light...

Rrrrummbbble...

We no like...intruders!

Now battle...

...hand...

...to...

...hand!*



$118:1:6:95:200:

Grrrrumbbble!

What...happen?

We...crushed like pebble.

You so strong!

You rule ancient pyramid!

For today...

Now, take Star of Power.

We...sleep...darkness.*



$119:1:6:30:200:

Grrr! I was a bit

careless. This is not as I

had planned...but I still

hold the power of the

Stars, and I still have

Peach.

Bwa ha ha! You'll get no

more Stars from me! I'm

not finished with you yet,

but I'll let you go for

now. You'll pay for this...

later!*



$120:1:4:30:200:

Ooowaah! Can it be that

I've lost??? The power of

the Stars has failed me...

this time.

Consider this a draw.

Next time, I'll be in

perfect condition.



Now, if you want to see

your precious Princess,

come to the top of the

tower.

I'll be waiting!

Gwa ha ha ha!*



$121:1:5:30:200:

Nooo! It can't be!

You've really beaten me,

Mario?!! I gave those

troops power, but now

it's fading away!

Arrgghh! I can see peace

returning to the world! I

can't stand it! Hmmm...

It's not over yet...



C'mon troops! Let's watch

the ending together!

Bwa ha ha!*

$128:1:4:95:200:

You must fight with

honor! It is against the

royal rules to throw the

king out of the ring!*



$129:1:5:30:200:

Welcome to the Vanish

Cap Switch Course! All of

the blue blocks you find

will become solid once you

step on the Cap Switch.

You'll disappear when you

put on the Vanish Cap, so

you'll be able to elude

enemies and walk through

many things. Try it out!*



$130:1:5:30:200:

Welcome to the Metal Cap

Switch Course! Once you

step on the Cap Switch,

the green blocks will

become solid.

When you turn your body

into metal with the Metal

Cap, you can walk

underwater! Try it!*



$131:1:5:30:200:

Welcome to the Wing Cap

Course! Step on the red

switch at the top of the

tower, in the center of

the rainbow ring.

When you trigger the

switch, all of the red

blocks you find will

become solid.



Try out the Wing Cap! Do

the Triple Jump to take

off and press < to land.





Pull back on the Control

Stick to go up and push

forward to nose down,

just as you would when

flying an airplane.*



$132:1:4:30:200:

Whoa, Mario, pal, you

aren't trying to cheat,

are you? Shortcuts aren't

allowed.

Now, I know that you

know better. You're

disqualified! Next time,

play fair!*



$133:1:6:30:200:

Am I glad to see you! The

Princess...and I...and,

well, everybody...we're all

trapped inside the castle

walls.



Bowser has stolen the

castle's Stars, and he's

using their power to

create his own world in

the paintings and walls.



Please recover the Power

Stars! As you find them,

you can use their power

to open the doors that

Bowser has sealed.



There are four rooms on

the first floor. Start in

the one with the painting

of Bob-omb inside. It's

the only room that Bowser

hasn't sealed.

When you collect eight

Power Stars, you'll be

able to open the door

with the big star. The

Princess must be inside!*



$134:1:5:30:200:

The names of the Stars

are also hints for

finding them. They are

displayed at the beginning

of each course.

You can collect the Stars

in any order. You won't

find some Stars, enemies

or items unless you select

a specific Star.

After you collect some

Stars, you can try

another course.

We're all waiting for

your help!*



$135:1:5:30:200:

It was Bowser who stole

the Stars. I saw him with

my own eyes!





He's hidden six Stars in

each course, but you

won't find all of them in

some courses until you

press the Cap Switches.

The Stars you've found

will show on each course's

starting screen.





If you want to see some

of the enemies you've

already defeated, select

the Stars you recovered

from them.*



$136:1:6:30:200:

Wow! You've already

recovered that many

Stars? Way to go, Mario!

I'll bet you'll have us out

of here in no time!



Be careful, though.

Bowser and his band

wrote the book on #bad."

Take my advice: When you

need to recover from

injuries, collect coins.

Yellow Coins refill one

piece of the Power Meter,

Red Coins refill two

pieces, and Blue Coins

refill five.



To make Blue Coins

appear, pound on Blue

Coin Blocks.







Also, if you fall from

high places, you'll

minimize damage if you

Pound the Ground as you

land.*



$137:1:6:30:200:

Thanks, Mario! The castle

is recovering its energy

as you retrieve Power

Stars, and you've chased

Bowser right out of here,

on to some area ahead.

Oh, by the by, are you

collecting coins? Special

Stars appear when you

collect 100 coins in each

of the 15 courses!*

Arrow: You are here*



$141:1:5:150:200:

You've recovered one of

the stolen Power Stars!

Now you can open some of

the sealed doors in the

castle.

Try the Princess's room

on the second floor and

the room with the

painting of Whomp's

Fortress on Floor 1.

Bowser's troops are still

gaining power, so you

can't give up. Save us,

Mario! Keep searching for

Stars!*



$142:1:5:150:200:

You've recovered three

Power Stars! Now you can

open any door with a 3

on its star.



You can come and go from

the open courses as you

please. The enemies ahead

are even meaner, so be

careful!*



$143:1:6:150:200:

You've recovered eight of

the Power Stars! Now you

can open the door with

the big Star! But Bowser

is just ahead...can you

hear the Princess calling?*



$144:1:6:150:200:

You've recovered 30

Power Stars! Now you can

open the door with the

big Star! But before you

move on, how's it going

otherwise?

Did you pound the two

columns down? You didn't

lose your hat, did you?

If you did, you'll have to

stomp on the condor to

get it back!

They say that Bowser has

sneaked out of the sea

and into the underground.

Have you finally

cornered him?*



$145:1:6:150:200:

You've recovered 50

Power Stars! Now you can

open the Star Door on the

third floor. Bowser's

there, you know.



Oh! You've found all of

the Cap Switches, haven't

you? Red, green and blue?

The Caps you get from the

colored blocks are really

helpful.

Hurry along, now. The

third floor is just ahead.*



$146:1:6:150:200:

You've found 70 Power

Stars! The mystery of the

endless stairs is solved,

thanks to you--and is

Bowser ever upset! Now,

on to the final bout!*



$147:1:5:30:200:

Are you using the Cap

Blocks? You really should,

you know.





To make them solid so you

can break them, you have

to press the colored Cap

Switches in the castle's

hidden courses.

You'll find the hidden

courses only after

regaining some of the

Power Stars.



The Cap Blocks are a big

help! Red for the Wing

Cap, green for the Metal

Cap, blue for the Vanish

Cap.*



$148:1:6:30:200:

Snowman Mountain ahead.

Keep out! And don't try

the Triple Jump over the

ice block shooter.





If you fall into the

freezing pond, your power

decreases quickly, and

you won't recover

automatically.

    --The Snowman*



$149:1:3:30:200:

Welcome to

Princess Toadstool's

secret slide!

There's a Star hidden

here that Bowser couldn't

find.

When you slide, press

forward to speed up,

pull back to slow down.

If you slide really

fast, you'll win the Star!*



$150:1:5:30:200:

Waaaa! You've flooded my

house! Wh-why?? Look at

this mess! What am I

going to do now?



The ceiling's ruined, the

floor is soaked...what to

do, what to do? Huff...

huff...it makes me so...

MAD!!!

Everything's been going

wrong ever since I got

this Star...It's so shiny,

but it makes me feel...

strange...*



$151:1:4:30:200:

I can't take this

anymore! First you get

me all wet, then you

stomp on me!

Now I'm really, really,

REALLY mad!

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!*



$152:1:3:30:200:

Owwch! Uncle! Uncle!

Okay, I give. Take this

Star!

Whew! I feel better now.

I don't really need it

anymore, anyway--

I can see the stars

through my ceiling at

night.

They make me feel...

...peaceful. Please, come

back and visit anytime.*



$153:1:4:30:200:

Hey! Who's there?

What's climbing on me?

Is it an ice ant?

A snow flea?

Whatever it is, it's

bugging me! I think I'll

blow it away!*



$154:1:5:30:200:

Hold on to your hat! If

you lose it, you'll be

easily injured. If you

lose it, look for it in the

course where you lost it.

Speaking of lost, the

Princess is still stuck in

the walls somewhere.

Please help, Mario!



Oh, you know that there

are secret worlds in the

walls as well as in the

paintings, right?*



$155:1:6:30:200:

Thanks to the power of

the Stars, life is

returning to the castle.

Please, Mario, you have

to give Bowser the boot!



Here, let me tell you a

little something about the

castle. In the room with

the mirrors, look carefully

for anything that's not

reflected in the mirror.

And when you go to the

water town, you can flood

it with a high jump into

the painting.*



$156:1:5:30:200:

The world inside the

clock is so strange!

When you jump inside,

watch the position of

the big hand!*



$157:1:5:30:200:

Watch out! Don't let

yourself be swallowed by

quicksand.





If you sink into the sand,

you won't be able to

jump, and if your head

goes under, you'll be

smothered.

The dark areas are

bottomless pits.*



$158:1:6:30:200:

1. If you jump repeatedly

and time it right, you'll

jump higher and higher.

If you run really fast and

time three jumps right,

you can do a Triple Jump.

2. Jump into a solid wall,

then jump again when you

hit the wall. You can

bounce to a higher level

using this Wall Kick.*



$159:1:6:30:200:

3. If you stop, press <

to crouch, then jump, you

can perform a Backward

Somersault. To do a Long

Jump, run fast, press <,

then jump.*



$160:1:4:30:200:

Press } while running

fast to do a Body Slide

attack. To stand while

sliding, press { or }.*



$161:1:4:30:200:

Mario!!!

It that really you???

It has been so long since

our last adventure!

They told me that I might

see you if I waited here,

but I'd just about given

up hope!

Is it true? Have you

really beaten Bowser? And

restored the Stars to the

castle?

And saved the Princess?

I knew you could do it!

Now I have a very special

message for you.

#Thanks for playing Super

Mario 64! This is the

end of the game, but not

the end of the fun.

We want you to keep on

playing, so we have a

little something for you.

We hope that you like it!

Enjoy!!!"



The Super Mario 64 Team*





$162:1:4:30:200:

No, no, no! Not you

again! I'm in a great

hurry, can't you see?



I've no time to squabble

over Stars. Here, have it.

I never meant to hide it

from you...

It's just that I'm in such

a rush. That's it, that's

all. Now, I must be off.

Owww! Let me go!*



$163:1:5:30:200:

Noooo! You've really

beaten me this time,

Mario! I can't stand

losing to you!



My troops...worthless!

They've turned over all

the Power Stars! What?!

There are 120 in all???



Amazing! There were some

in the castle that I

missed??!!





Now I see peace

returning to the world...

Oooo! I really hate that!

I can't watch--

I'm outta here!

Just you wait until next

time. Until then, keep

that Control Stick

smokin'!

Buwaa ha ha!*



$164:1:4:30:200:

Mario! What's up, pal?

I haven't been on the

slide lately, so I'm out

of shape.

Still, I'm always up for a

good race, especially

against an old sleddin'

buddy.

Whaddya say?

Ready...set...
