Super Mario 3D World: Mushroom-6 -- Gigantic Seasick Wreck

Take the warp box to the first ship. There are Ty-Foos here to push you off the ship. Get the Green Coins from the Green Ring for the first Green Star. Go past the Octoombas to the next warp box. Walk to the bow of the ship. The coin trail will lead you to an invisible block with a 1-up. Hit the item block on the ship for a Mega Mushroom. You can use this to get rid of the Bullies and Ty-Foos. Go past the warp box and go to the right. Over the tilting narrow planks is the second Green Star. The warp box leads to another Mega Mushroom and more narrow planks. The third Green Star is on the right side. The easiest way to get it is with the Mega Mushroom. On the ship ahead, use Mega Mushrooms to push the Bullies off the ship. There is an invisible Mega Mushroom on the right side of the ship. Take out the Ty-Foos to make your life easier. Once the Bullies are gone, the warp box to the flag appears. There are tilting platforms with Octoombas leading the way to the flag.

There are no stamps in World Mushroom.

Super Mario 3D World: Star-7 -- Gargantuan Grotto

Many of the enemies are larger here in this jungle. There are stacks of Goombas, one of which has a 1-up. Nearby are giant Galoombas. The item block on the back wall has a Mega Mushroom. Move quickly to the right. You'll see some gray bricks on the back wall and in the ground. Destroy the gray bricks on the back wall to get the stamp. Destroy the bricks on the ground to drop down. If your Mega Mushroom runs out, there are holes so you can drop down. At the bottom is an invisible block with a Tanooki Suit. To the right are Microgoombas and pink wall enemies. Clear them out and wall jump up behind them for the first Green Star. Farther to the right is the midpoint.

Drop into the water, where there are Bloopers and spike blocks above a vortex. Swim near the back wall near the bottom to avoid the spikes. Swim up and out of the water over the gray bricks. Grab the Mega Mushroom in the item block and go quickly to the right. Pound the bouncy pads to jump through gray bricks ahead. At the top is the second Green Star. As long as you break at least one gray brick, you can swim up to get it later. To the right is a pipe. Swim above it to find another pipe. You'll find a P-Switch and a Mega Mushroom. There are three rounds of coins to collect for the third Green Star. Go back through the pipe, then go through the pipe below to the flagpole. There is a Goomba stack near the flag.

The stamp is of a Mega Mushroom.

Super Mario 3D World: Star-5 -- Super Block Land

The level is filled with giant blocks. There's a Tanooki Suit  in one of the item blocks. Just to the right of the giant brick blocks, on the right side of the tall wall, is an invisible block with a Mega Mushroom. You'll have to use a Bob-omb to clear the giant brick blocks in the way. This makes clearing the path ahead a little easier, since there are several Chargin' Chucks. It also makes getting the stamp easier. Go all the way to the right and you'll find a lone brick block in the lower right corner. Destroy it with the Mega Mushroom, or ground pound it for a while as long as you're not small. The stamp is in the alcove behind it. Nearby are four giant item blocks. Pound them to form a path to a Mystery Box. Inside, pound the right giant item block to reach the first Green Star. The warp box is to the right.

Slide down to the midpoint, behind the POW Block. Use a Bob-omb to destroy the brick blocks in the ground to reveal a springboard. Up ahead and to the left is a gray brick. Use a Bob-omb to destroy it for the second Green Star. On solid ground, you'll find Key Coins and more Chargin' Chucks. Most of the Key Coins are visible and easy to reach. One is under some brick blocks near the back wall. Use a Bob-omb to reach it. Go to the far right and destroy the large brick block. Pound the giant item block to reach the third Green Star. The unlocked warp box will take you to the flagpole. Giant item blocks will form a path to the flagpole when ground pounded.

The stamp is of Tanooki Luigi.

Super Mario 3D World: Star-1 -- Rainbow Run

After beating Bowser, a new world opens up. The Sprixie Princesses are gathered around a rock in World 1. Approach them and the rock reveals a rocket that takes you to a bonus world, World Star. Lumas float about this world.

The first part of the level involves running around rainbow-colored discs. The first few discs have ring lasers, with mice jumping over them. Over the second disc is an invisible block with a Super Bell. Grab it and go over the rainbow-colored cylinders past the Biddybuds. When you get to a set of brick blocks over a cylinder, stand on the bricks and climb up to an alcove above. The pipe in the alcove takes you to a room with a P-Switch near you and two in the background. Hit the P-Switch to make the Green Star balls appear. Only manipulate one ball at a time and move the flip-switches to make them land on the P-Switches. The balls can go onto either switch, but both switches must be activated to make the first Green Star appear. Ahead are more mice running on cylinders in front of the warp box.

The warp box will take you to the midpoint, where Plessie awaits. Stay on the right side of the water, which isn't fenced off to prevent you from falling off. On the right side is the stamp. At the end, see if you can steer Plessie into all off the Biddybuds. If you clear them all out, you'll get a lot of coins. On the back wall, directly ahead, is an unlit torch. Also on the back wall invisible block with a Fire Flower. Light the torch and the wall drops away, revealing a cloud cannon. It blasts you to an area of tiles to light up. Hit the POW Blocks to clear them faster, as well as use the Mega Mushroom in the invisible block on the lower right. Or use the Touch Screen. Either way, once all of the tiles are lit up, it reveals 8-bit Link. The Legend of Zelda music plays and the second Green Star appears. Grab it and drop down the main level. Up ahead are more rainbow discs. One of them has a Green Ring, which will give you the third Green Star. Cross over more cylinders, swing on the trapeze and go past the Biddybuds to reach the warp box. There are P-Switches leading up the stairs to the flagpole. The last one will rain coins.

The stamp is of the flagpole.

Super Mario 3D World: 5-2 -- Tricky Trapeze Theater

It's time to go back to the circus! Take the gondola down to the level where you'll find tilting platforms, Fizzlits, and trapezes. The trapezes can hold four people at a time. They trapezes are already swinging, but you can push left and right to make them swing even more. Keep going to the right past the three Fizzlits and you'll find invisible clouds over one of the trapezes. The first Green Star is up there. Take the gondola to the right down to the midpoint.

Ahead is a large, spinning platform with many Piranha Plants and giant Piranha Plants. Go to the right for a pipe. It leads to a P-Switch. Collect the Silver Coins for the second Green Star. Return and go to the center of the spinning platform. The triple item block has a Mega Mushroom. Kill all of the Piranha Plants for lots of coins. Go to the back and bounce on the orange bouncy platform to reach the large stairs. The stamp is to the left. If you can climb the wall, you'll find Captain Toad with a random item block. Otherwise, go through the clear pipe. You'll land on tilting platforms with spike bars. Swing on the trapeze and hit the Green Ring to make Green Coins appear. It doesn't matter which spot you swing from on the trapeze, but you must swing quickly and jump when the opportunity presents itself to collect all eight. This will get you the third Green Star. Take the gondola down to the trapeze to the flag. Time your jump carefully as there is nothing under the trapeze. It can be a little difficult to reach the top of the flagpole from here, so take your time swinging.

The stamp is of Luigi.

Super Mario 3D World: 3- Castle -- The Bullet Bill Express

This is an automatically scrolling level. At first, you're on the station platform with the train moving. Hit the item blocks for a cannon box, then quickly get on the train and go to the back for the first Green Star. Bullet Bills will be firing at you. You must get on the train or you'll soon run out of platform and fall. Once on board, move towards the front of the train. There are spinning flies near the item blocks, which have Super Leaves for Tanooki Suits. A train will appear in the background and fire Cat Bullet Bills that will home in on your location. Ahead is the second Green Star in a stack of Goombas. Nearby is an invisible block with a Mega Mushroom. Use it, which helps with the Cat Banzai Bills, but do not destroy the green pipe ahead. Take the green pipe to the train in the background.

On the back train, the level will continue to scroll. You'll find a few crates. Break them to free Captain Toad to get the third Green Star. Over the engine is a warp block back to the main train. There are Fire Bros near the engine. Drop down to enter the engine for the stamp. The pipe on the engine will take you to Pom Pom. She has a ninja star this time. She'll split into three and attack. Hit the one with the pink ninja star and she'll split into four, then five. Once you defeat her, the warp box to the flagpole and the blue Sprixie Princess will appear. Once you free her, she'll use a hammer to create a clear pipe.

The stamp is of Pom Pom. The Sprixie House here has the stamp of the yellow Sprixie Princess.

Super Mario 3D World: 1-1 -- Super Bell Hill

It's time to start the first level of the Sprixie Kingdom. There are bell-shaped trees that ring when you climb them. The first item block has a Super Bell, which will turn you into a cat. There are clear pipes ahead of you. Go through the one with three exits. Go up through the pipe to reach the first Green Star. Ahead is a long pipe to the next area.

The pipe will drop you near the midpoint. Nearby is a bunny with a strange green glow. Chase it around and catch it and it will hand over the second Green Star. In the wall ahead, you'll see a green pipe. It leads to a clear pipe to the stamp. Return to the main level and go up the wall. You'll find two bunnies here. One of them is huge. Catch the large one for a Mega Mushroom. Drop down and run through the crates, past the Goombas in cat suits. While the Mega Mushroom is still in effect, pound the gray brick blocks at the end of the bridge with the crates. Drop down to find the third Green Star. Go back up, then go to the flag.

The stamp is of Cat Mario.

New Super Mario Bros. 2: Mushroom-3

This level has Buzzy Beetles and POW blocks. Once you go past the first two POW blocks, the level will start automatically sidescrolling. Go across the infinite platforms moving up and down and you'll come across the first Star Coin. It is above a donut lift below a fire pipe, which will give you three 1-ups if you're fast enough to reach them. There is a ? Switch between two yellow pipes. It makes coins from both of them. At the end is a yellow pipe. The POW block to the right of the pipe which makes coins. The pipe takes you to the midpoint, where the POW block allows you to get four items, either Super Mushrooms or Fire Flowers. Go through the next pipe and the level starts scrolling again. Jump left from the infinite platforms for the second Star Coin. Use Buzzy Beetles to hit the next POW blocks for the third Star Coin. The rock wall will drop, revealing another fire pipe. It will give you a Mega Mushroom, so run to the right for lots of coins. The pipe at the end will take you to the flag.

Coin Total: 56,391

New Super Mario Bros. 2: 5-6

This is a rocky level. Jump down following the coins, and kick the shell for a Gold Block. Slowly make your way down the mountain, as it is crawling with Piranha Plants and Fire Piranhas. You'll find ferris wheels all the way down, as well as some Red Coins. You'll find some ferris wheels near the bottom over some spikes. Go left and hit the ! Switch over some brick blocks.  You'll drop down on the first Star Coin and onto the temporary red blocks below. Run to safety on the right. You'll soon reach the midpoint. There are several pipes ahead. Most have Piranhas in them. There will be a large drop between some pipes. At the bottom of the drop is a green pipe without a Piranha. Take it down and put the spring on the moving platform. Time your jump from the spring to reach the second Star Coin above between two giant Piranhas. Go through the yellow pipe. You'll see the third Star Coin surrounded by pipes and stone. Either backtrack or continue to reach the flag. Either way, with a Fire Flower, about partway down the mountain, take out a Giant Piranha to the right to reach a fire pipe. Send lots of fireballs its way to make a Mega Mushroom appear. Let it drop off the mountain and follow it to the midpoint. Get and run to the right, destroying pipes in your path. Run into the pipes and stone to get the third Star Coin.

Coin Total: 45,143
I got the third Star Coin after beating the final boss.

New Super Mario Bros. 2: 1-2

This level has a lot of POW blocks. You'll use it to access the pipe. Before you do that, take a Koopa shell and use it to hit the POW on the left for some coins. Go up the ledge to make more coins appear. In some levels, if you go to certain areas, coins will magically appear. Now we take the pipe underground. The two POWs can be used to get an item and lots of coins. Use shells to hit the POW blocks so you can get the first Star Coin. Go down the yellow pipe. Hit the P-Switch and run to get the second Star Coin. Once you get back to the main level, you'll find the infinite rising and lowering platforms. Activate another POW block to reach a black pipe with a fire sign in front of it. If you don't have a Fire Flower, one will be available after the midpoint. Once you have one, shoot as many fireballs as quickly as possible into the pipe. Lots of coins will come out the other side of the pipe, as well as a Mega Mushroom. Get it and run. You'll be able to get the third Star Coin encased in stone. Go up the blue pipe and hit the POW for the stairs.

Coin Total: 940
The game will give you a message every time you reach a coin benchmark. This time we get the message: "You've collected 500 coins! The reason my total is so high is because coins are added to your total when you exit the level because you reached the flagpole or you died. They are not added to the total if you decide to exit the level.

New Super Mario Bros.: 7-5

The main enemies you'll have to deal with here are Bob-ombs and Bullet Bills. The first Star Coin is overhead, blocked by bricks. Break some bricks as Super Mario or hit the Bob-omb to break some bricks, then bounce off of a Bullet Bill to reach it. If you're Mini Mario, use a Bob-omb to break a stone block over a mini pipe. Take it down to a room with Micro Goombas. The second Star Coin is blocked by a pipe. The item block contains a Mega Mushroom, so get it and use it to push back the pipe and get the Star Coin. You can't leave until the power wears off, so take out the Micro Goombas, then pound the ground to make Goombas appear from the ceiling. Take the pipe back up and you'll reach the midpoint near a few Bill Blasters and item blocks. Go past some more Bill Blasters and blocks and you'll find the third Star Coin between two Bill Blasters. At the end is a Banzai Blaster in front of the regular goal. This takes you to 7-6. Just in front of the Banzai Blaster is a pipe covered with stones. You'll need two Bob-ombs to break through them. Place them where the stones form corners. The pipe will take you to an underground area with coins, then you'll go up another pipe to thre red goal to 7-A.

New Super Mario Bros.: 1-2

It's time for the first underground level. As the level is underground, it takes place on the Touch Screen, so you can't access your reserve item. We can pound the brick blocks to drop down for lots of coins. The first Star Coin is on a ledge to the right of the set of three brick blocks. As we keep going to the right, we'll find several brick blocks somewhat shaped like a tower. We can pound the top brick block to drop down to the second Star Coin. We take the first pipe to an area below and find more coins and a Koopa Shell, which we use to destroy the brick blocks under the pipe. This leads us to a new area with some Goombas and a Mega Mushroom. I got 2 1-ups from here. We go back to the main level through the pipe and use a tilting platform to reach an area on top of the rock that forms the ceiling. We run to the end to find the 3rd Star Coin and a pipe to the red flag goal. The red flag goal opens a shortcut to the fort, bypassing 1-3. It also opens access to a Toad House. To reach the regular goal, keep going right. It opens the path to 1-3.

New Super Mario Bros.: 1-1

It's World 1, so we get a simple level to get us started. We find the first Star Coin over four brick blocks. In one of the nearby item blocks is a Mega Mushroom, which makes Mario grow to fill the whole screen. As Mega Mario, he's invincible and destroys everything in his path. If you time it right, you can destroy the stairs and the flagpole. At the top of the screen is a meter. If it fills up, you can get up to 5 1-ups. Destroying everything means you'll probably miss the green pipe to the second Star Coin, which is underground. The third Star Coin is in a gap under some brick blocks. We have to be Super Mario to reach them with a ground pound. From there, we reach the flagpole.
