This mission is unique to the N64.
To the left of Tick Tock Clock is a window with a hole. It will lead you to a frustrating Red Coin mission. Mario lands in the clouds and must do some serious cloud-hopping to get all 8 Red Coins. Fortunately, he gets the Wing Cap and some cannons. Failing into the void results in Mario dropping into the moat outside the castle, not taking any damage or losing a life. The slide music plays. This took me 25 attempts. A good strategy is to keep recharging your Wing Cap. The first Red Coin is on the cloud you land on. Get the Wing Cap and fly to the nearby translucent gray cloud for another Red Coin. You can't land on this cloud, so aim well. You might be able to circle back around to get it. Then land on the larger and lower of two pink platforms. There, ask the Bob-omb Buddy to open the cannon. There's a Red Coin there, as well. We use the higher cannon to fly over the cloud with the poles hanging from it, as there are two Red Coins there. We used a cannon again to reach the poles to get another Red Coin. Follow the rainbows to the remaining clouds with coins. The Star appears on the cloud you started on, so take a cannon there.
Star Get #112, 24 Coins, 18 Lives
