Bowser's
Magma Mountain stage: Successfully complete the first six stages and collect 1000
coins. You have to buy things in the shop, including the key to the Magma
Mountain, while playing in those six stages. After that, the Magma Mountain
can be played. Get 1000 coins and you can buy the key to
Eternal
Star stage: Get 100 stars in the Magma Mountain stage. A special event will
appear. The Eternal Star stage will appear after that.
Special
shop items: Successfully complete the Eternal Star stage. The ending sequence
will appear. After that, special items can be bought in the shops.
Alternate
title screen: Complete the game with a character to feature that person as the
main character on the title screen.
Extra
songs: Purchase the record from the Mushroom shop to unlock extra songs
on the Bowser's Magma Mountain and Eternal Star stages. The new songs are:
"The Power of Stars", "Ending", "Mini-Game Stadium
Theme", "Mini-Game Island Theme", "The Stolen
Star", "Where's the Star?", "Eternal Star", and
"Everyone's a Super Star!".
No Boo
and No Koopa: Successfully complete the game with 100 stars and finish the
Eternal Star stage. No Boo and No Koopa will now be availabe in the Mushroom
Shop.
Hint:
Get coins easily: Select three of the characters. Then, stop at the final round of
game and turn all the CPU players into players 2P, 3P and 4P. All stars and
coins may now be easily collected.
Give all four characters a
handicap of 50 coins at the character selection screen at the start of a
game.
Go into the Pot o' Skills and
set every character to a handicap of 50 coins with any number of turns. When
the number of turns is up, just before you go into the very last mini-game,
switch everyone to humans by pressing Start, then A, then
selecting "Controller Settings". You need four controllers (one
for each character). Play the mini-game out to easily collect over 200
coins.
Hint:
Win without playing: Start the adventure or pot of skills game as normal. Press Start
as soon as game play begins to display the settings screen. Press A,
then choose "Controller Settings" Change all human players into
CPU players. The game will play automatically. If you wish to collect any
coins or stars, change the CPU players back into human players.
Hint:
Never let CPU player have stars: Immediately before a CPU player lands on the star space, pause
game play. Go to the controller setup and change yourself into that player,
then change the CPU player that is going to win into yourself. When asked if
you would like a star, decline.
Hint:
Bumper Ball Mazes 1, 2, and 3: Complete Mini-Game Island by beating Toad at the Slot Car Derby 2
to get the first Bumper Ball Maze. Beat all 50 mini-games at Mini-Game
Island to get the second Bumper Ball Maze. Set new records on both of those
to unlock the third Bumper Ball Maze.
Hint:
Avoid Bowser Flower: In the Peaches B-Day Cake level, you have a choice of which seed
to plant. Bowser is always red or yellow. It is never blue or green.
Hint:
Curse players: If a player is about to get a star, run into Boo, etc. and you do
not want them to, press Start, then press A. Go to the control
options and turn yourself into a hard CPU character and take control of the
player to curse. When they reach the star, Boo, etc. just answer
"No". Then, go back to controlling your original character.
Hint:
Fixed roulette block: This trick works about 95% of the time. When you roll, the
roulette block moves up and down slightly. If you hit the roulette block at
its highest point, you will almost always get a 7, 8, 9 or 10 and vice versa
if you hit it at its lowest point to get a 1, 2, 3 or 4.
