Because of my mo
st recent kidnap
ping, I’ve had ple
nty of time here
in lonely captivi
ty to write you a f
ew hints and wo
rds of inspiratio
n
that I hope will h
elp you during y
our quest to sav
e me. Be careful,
Mario, but hurry--t
his castle is so…di
ngy!
Use your famou
s moves!
Use all those speci
al moves you do
to grab coins an
d power-ups in
hard-
to-reach places. If y
ou can’t break a
block or jump to a su
spicious pipe,
try using a com
bination of mov
es,
or even a power-up.
Look for secrets!
Each course doe
sn’t necessarily
have just one go
al, Mario. On so
me
courses, there ar
e hidden goals
and secret paths t
hat open up new
places on the m
ap! Don’t be afr
aid
to explore.
Don’t sweat it!
If you’re having a h
ard time making
it through a cour
se, use Super
Guide! If you keep m
aking mistakes
and losing lives o
n the same cour
se,
you can call in y
our brother, Luigi,
to show you the w
ay through the
course. Then, you c
an always go bac
k
and finish the ch
allenge yourself
.
Collect Star Coi
ns!
There are three S
tar Coins hidden i
n
each course. So
mething good is boun
d
to happen when y
ou collect Star C
oins,
Mario!
Go to Peach Cas
tle for a hint!
At Peach Castle, y
ou can spend St
ar
Coins to watch h
int movies. I jus
t know
they’ll help you o
n your adventur
e.
More hint movie
s will become
available as you p
rogress through y
our
adventure. So be sur
e to visit Peach
Castle every onc
e in a while, eve
n if
I’m not there. Oh, t
his is making m
e
homesick…
Save Toads!
Some of the Toads h
ave been trapped i
n
blocks! When you ge
t near a block th
at
has a Toad trapped i
n it, you’ll hear i
t
calling out to you. Wh
en you break the
block and free t
hem, lift them up an
d
carry them to th
e goal. I’m sure t
he
Toads will give y
ou some kind of r
eward for saving t
hem…
*Oh, and, Mario--y
ou can only sav
e Toads when you ar
e playing
by yourself.
