| These are the many shortcuts and tricks that I found in this game. If you know any that aren't mentioned here, email me and I post it up here and credit you! |
Whomp's Fortress-
1. Shoot into the Wild Blue- Instead of using the cannon to get this star, just go to beyond the cannon into the area of the blue coins. Go up the ramp in an angle and perform an instant backflip and then wall jump carefully to the platform with the star. Another fast way to get the star is to get to the part just between the 2 whomps and jump off the corner of the fenced-in platform and aim for the star.
2. If you're tired of taking the long way, run up to the place just after the 2nd Thwomp and just before the 2nd sleeping Piranha Plant. Run to the right and you should see the back of a Whomp. Try to long jump onto that platform.
3. If the owl is driving you crazy, try using the cannon as an alternative to get the caged star in the sky. You'll have to aim just above the corner wall where the rotating bridge leads to.

Cool, Cool Mountain-
1. Try jumping on the Peahat just behind the 1st baby penguin and maneuver yourself around the mountain to land on the platform with the 6th Power Star.
2. (This only works for the 1st time you slide) In the Ice Slider, just before you take the 2nd turn left, go straight off the edge of the slide and try to land on the stip of ice below to get close to the finish!

Big Boo's Haunt-
1. In the room with the grand piano monster, do an instant back flip and a wall spring on the wall with the door that leads to the room with the flying chairs and if you can do it right, you can get the star on the balcony easily without having to decipher the bookshelf code!
