1-1
If you don't get the 1-Up by the second POW Block, you can get it from
the first of three clumps of grass above
you, before the next waterfall. For a shortcut to Birdo, go in the first
door in the level, climb the vine, then run and
jump over the waterfall to your left. Throw down bombs to open the way
to the door. When outside, go left over
the wall, and there's Birdo.
Mushroom #1: Where you find the first Potion.
Mushroom #2: Where you find the second Potion.
Birdo: When he spits an egg, jump on it, pick it up, and throw it back
at him. Three eggs will put him down for
the count.
1-2
Wait until Pigdit swoops down, then jump on top of him. When he flies to
his right-most spot, pick him up and
throw him off. Before the magic carpet fades away, fly to the right and
over the pit.
Mushroom #1: Where you find the first Potion.
Mushroom #2: Inside the first door, climb the ladder. Use the last two
clumps of grass on the right to Bomb out
the wall on the far right. The Potion is the grass touching the ladder
on the right. Pull it out, then walk to the right
until you see the wall you just bombed out. Enter Sub-Space; the Mushroom
will be at ground level.
1-3
Inside the building, go all the way up to find the Key, then drop all the
way down. At the part with three chains
side-by-side, drop down and as far right as you can. You'll avoid the spikes
and find the locked door.
Mushroom: Where you find the Potion.
Warp Zone: Take a Potion past the rust-colored brick building, all the
way to the vase. Go down the vase while in
Sub-Space and you'll warp to World 4-1.
Mouser: Stand under his ledge and pick up (or better yet, catch) the Bombs
he throws. Run back underneath the
ledge and throw the Bomb on it. Blow up three Bombs on Mouser to defeat
him.
World 2
2-1
Mushroom: Where you find the Potion.
2-2
Mushroom #1: When you find the first Potion, take a few steps to the right.
Mushroom #2: Where you find the second Potion.
Birdo: Watch out -- this Birdo spits fire along with eggs. Bring a Mushroom
Block with you for an extra attack.
2-3
Mushroom #1: Take the first Potion all the way to the left.
Mushroom #2: Go in the door up high on the red hills. The Potion is the
first clump of grass to the right of the
door. Enter Sub-Space in that room, and you can't miss the Mushroom.
Tryclyde: Hit him with three Mushroom Blocks. Not too hard, just beware
of his fire when you go for more
Mushroom Blocks.
World 3
3-1
Throw Pidgit off his carpet and fly straight up the middle of the screen
to reach a vine to the next part. At this
point, if you are using Princess Toadstool, get off the vine and go left.
Jump left over the pit to find a secret door.
Bomb out the wall, then continue up and left and you'll find Birdo.
Mushroom #1: Where you find the next Potion after the Warp opportunity.
Mushroom #2: Go down the ladder that leads down to five clumps of grass,
pull out the Potion (the first clump)
and take it as far left as you can go. Enter Sub-Space, then quick climb
the ladder to get to the Mushroom.
Warp Zone: Start the stage, then go in the door. Drop down the next pit,
and try to stay in the middle of the
screen. You'll find a door at the bottom of the water fall. In that room,
pull out the Potion (the tenth clump of
grass) and take it all the way to the right. Go down the vase while in
Sub-Space and you'll warp to World 5-1.
3-2
If you use Princess Toadstool, you can skip a good portion of the stage
by jumping left over the pits
"underground."
Mushroom #1: Where you find the first Potion.
Mushroom #2: In the "underground" part, go as far left as possible. You
will eventually come across an area with
four clumps of grass and Porcupos underneath two bomb-able walls. Pull
out the Bomb (grass on the far left) and
blow up the bomb-able wall on the right, because the Mushroom is going
to be under that in Sub-Space. The
Potion is the clump of grass on the far right.
3-3
Mushroom #1: When you find the first Potion, go left a few steps, then
enter Sub-Space.
Mushroom #2: In the rust-colored brick building, take the Potion all the
way to the left. Throw it between the
locked door and the ladder. Enter Sub-Space and quick go up the ladder
to the Mushroom.
Mouser: Same as in 1-3, except this time it takes five Bombs to blow him
up.
World 4
4-1
Mushroom #1: Where you find the first Potion.
Mushroom #1: When you find the second Potion, go left a few steps, then
enter Sub-Space.
4-2
Mushroom #1: The first Potion is on the left-most whale. The Mushroom is
where you find the first Potion, on the
whale's tail.
Mushroom #2: This is a hard one to get! After you take the Rocket up to
the next part of the stage, a Potion is in
the next clump of grass. Throw the Shy Guy off the Autobomb, pull out the
Potion, jump on the Autobomb, then
duck. Keep ducking throughout the ride over the spikes. At the end of the
spikes, jump to the platform with the
door, and enter Sub-Space. The Mushroom is right there.
Warp Zone: In the whale part, take the second Potion to the vase. Go down
the vase while in Sub-Space and
you'll warp to World 6-1.
4-3
When you see Birdo, don't kill him! Get around him and go to the edge before
the water. When Birdo spits out an
egg, jump on top and ride it across the pit.
Mushroom: Take the Potion by Birdo all the way to the left of the stage,
then enter Sub-Space.
Fryguy: After you hit him with three Mushroom Blocks, he splits into four
little fireballs. The safest place to be
here is on the top platform, because the little fireballs can't jump up
that high. Smash 'em all with Mushroom
Blocks then move on to World 5.
World 5
5-1
Mushroom #1: Where you find the second Potion.
Mushroom #2: At the end of the "fish-jumping" part, use the logs to get
up above the area where the exit door
and third potion is. Drop down the second tunnel, pick up the Mushroom
Block. This clears the tunnel for the
Mushroom in Sub-Space.
Birdo: Try to get both Mushrooms, because this Birdo is tough! He only
spits fire, and you have one Mushroom
Block to use as a weapon.
5-2
Mushroom: Go down the vase and bring the Potion back up with you. Go a
few steps to the right of the vase and
then enter Sub-Space.
5-3
This stage is a toughie! Expect to lose a few lives here.
Mushroom #1: Where you find the second Potion (the first clump of grass
in the group of five).
Mushroom #2: After the logs, at the part with the ladder going down, let
the Bob-ombs blow up that first
bomb-able wall. This opens the area where the Mushroom is located in Sub-Space.
Warp Zone: Use Luigi. At the start of the stage, climb the ladder up, then
power jump (hold Down for 5 seconds
then jump) up to the vase. Get the Potion out the clump of grass on the
right. Go down the vase while in
Sub-Space and you'll warp to World 7-1.
Clawgrip: Grab the rocks he throws, and throw 'em back at him. Hit him
with five rocks to defeat him. Keep in
mind that you can't catch the rocks like Mouser's Bombs.
World 6
6-1
In the room with all the vases: The third vase from the left has a 1-Up
Mushroom in it, and the fifth vase from the
right has a Key.
Mushroom #1: Go down the first vase and bring the Potion up with you. Throw
it on the bones resting on the
quicksand. Enter Sub-Space, watch where the Mushroom drops, and quickly
pick it up before it sinks
completely into the quicksand.
Mushroom #2: Take the second Potion as far right as you can -- you should
come to a door. The Mushroom will
be above that door in Sub-Space.
Birdo: This Birdo only spits fire, but you have three Mushroom Blocks to
use...
6-2
Ride the Albatoss flying to the right to get over the huge gaps. Keep your
power jump ready at all times; there
are some tall obstacles to clear. If you stop to get the Mushroom, you
may lose your ride...
Mushroom: Where you find the Potion.
Birdo: What is it with the Birdos in World 6? They only spit fire! You're
probably used to killing bird-brain with
Mushroom Blocks by now anyway.
6-3
Get up that ladder to start the stage, then go left onto the quicksand.
Sink down until you're below the wall. Move
left and keep jumping until you get to the other side. Enter the secret
door, walk over some clouds to the
pyramid, and then you've found Birdo! That was a lot quicker than climbing
all those vines, eh?
Mushroom #1: Count the cacti! Take the Potion at the beginning, then drop
it on solid ground when the fifth
cactus is visible.
Mushroom #2: Inside the "cave" or whatever, get on the upper level, bomb
through three walls, then bomb
through the next bomb-able floor. (Tip: When you are bombing the walls,
pull out the grass right next to the wall
so you don't accidentally pull up the Potion.) Now, pull up the Potion,
drop through the floor that you just cleared
out, and then enter Sub-Space. The Mushroom will be right next to you.
Tryclyde: Make a wall of two Mushroom Blocks on the edge of the upper platform.
(This wall will snuff 99% of the
fire Tryclyde spits.) Go down and get a Mushroom Block, then get on top
of your makeshift wall and throw it at
Tryclyde. Repeat. You've got at least five good chances to hit him three
times and defeat him.
World 7
7-1
Anytime after you climb the ladder to start the stage, you can jump on
an Albatoss and ride it left. You'll find a
Rocket which leads to another part of the stage.
Mushroom #1: Bring the first Potion back to the white platform with the
green top. Enter Sub-Space and the
Mushroom is right next to you.
Mushroom #2: Where you find the second Potion.
7-2
Mushroom #1: Where you find the first Potion.
Mushroom #2: Where you find the second Potion.
Wart: Catch the Vegetables that shoot out of the tubes and hit Wart with
the veggies when his mouth is open.
Five hits and he's down for the count!
