This mission is a renamed mission on the Nintendo DS similar to Roll into the Cage.
The layout of the Nintendo DS's Tick Tock Clock is similar, but more forgiving. The gap where you can fall into the void is much smaller, but I managed to fall in with an unintentional wall-jump.
Take 2- I went into the course with time stopped. It's okay if you don't go in as Luigi, because you'll find Luigi's cap near the Power Flower you need. The cage is in the same place, but we have to go past it to reach the Power Flower. Past the cage is a platform leading to a pole and an Amp. Climb the pole up and jump up the two yellow platforms, then backflip up to another. You'll see more grating, as well as the Power Flower, and maybe a Goomba with Luigi's cap. I got the cap as well as the Power Flower to vanish and fall through the floor into the cage with the Star.

Wet-Dry World - Quick Race Through Downtown!
hg\gvfbN64
I backflipped into the painting to make the water level extra high. This way I could swim to the grate, climb on the grate and dive into the channel. I swam into town and drained the water. On the right side of the steeple is a Vanish Cap. We put it on and run through the wall that's the same color as the wall in front of the steeple where the Red Coins are to the other side of the steeple, where there is a large cage. We run into the cage and let the power run out. I then wall jumped part-way up the white stone, then climbed up to the Star.
Star Get #89, 2 Coins, 4 Lives
Nintendo DS
As I did not backflip into the painting, I raised the water to the highest level, then used the cannon to reach the grate. I got a 1-up and drained the water level. We need the Vanish Cap power, so we need Luigi. Thankfully, there is a Luigi Cap in the town. I grabbed the cap and ran to the right side of the steeple. There is a Power Flower there. We use it to run through the wall in front of the steeple into the cage. We backflip up the white stone and climb to the Star.
Star Get #110, 0 Coins, 8 Lives
The next Star is Soaked Silver Stars.

Snowman's Land - Into the Igloo
N64
I decided to get 100 Coins in this mission. I got many coins from Spindrifts and Moneybags, creatures that have lots of coins and disguise themselves as coins. Runnning around small snowmen, as you would Mr. I, will defeat them and get you some coins. We get the Shiny Shell and go up the slope on the snowman marked with coins. At the top of the slope is a tiny igloo. Crouch, then move to crawl, so you can crawl into the igloo. The Hazy Maze Cave music plays. The igloo is very spacious inside. It's a maze of ice walls, some of which contain coins. I found the Bob-omb Buddy so he could open the cannon. You can see a Vanish Cap block that you can't just seem to reach. Near the front of the igloo, you can slide between an ice wall and the igloo wall. I then backflipped over an ice wall to reach the Vanish Cap. With it, we can walk through ice walls. I got several coins from the walls, totaling 101.
Star Get #81, 101 Coins, 6 Lives
The Star is in the front ice wall. While the Vanish Cap is still in effect, run to the front wall and jump into the ice to get the Star.
Star Get #82, 105 Coins, 8 Lives
Nintendo DS
We need to be Luigi for this mission. I decided to get 100 Coins in this mission as well. I got over 40 coins before dying in the water after losing the Shiny Shell.
Take 2- I successfully made it up to the igloo with 50 Coins. We crawl into the igloo, moving while crouching. The Hazy Maze Cave music plays, but the layout is much different from the N64 version. There are pools of cold water that can drain your health. We talk to the Bob-omb Buddy so he'll open the cannon. There are several coins underwater. The Red Coins are also in the igloo. There are many Spindrifts that will provide you with coins. The Star appeared in the water and fully restored my health.
Star Get #101, 100 Coins, 3 Lives
As Luigi, get the Power Flower in the back left corner. Run quickly to the front of the igloo, where the floor is a grate. Drop through the grate to get the Star.
Star Get #102, 103 Coins, 6 Lives
The next Star is Red Coins in the House.

The Secret Under the Moat - Red Coins and Switch Star
This mission is a modified version of Vanish Cap Under the Moat for the Nintendo DS.
We need to drain the moat to access this area in the same way as in the N64 version: go through the wooden door next to the door to Hazy Maze Cave, swim through the tunnel and pound each pillar once. The sign says the same thing as in the N64 version. The water will drain, allowing us to open the metal door which leads to the drained moat of the castle. Near the waterfall is a black brick block, so we need Wario to break it. Breaking it reveals a hole to the area under the moat. We must start the area as Wario, because going into the castle to swap out characters will cause the brick block to regenerate.
With the Touch Screen Map, we can see where we need to slide to get the Red Coins. The first two steps have Red Coins, the third has a 1-up in a block, and the fourth has a Power Flower. The step directly below the Power Flower has a Red Coin, as does the step to the right. The step to the left has another 1-up, which I did not get. (I also did not get the 1-up at the top of the slide in the right corner.) At the bottom of the slide are several flaming orbs, as well as a Power Flower. Arouond the corner are an Amp and Mario's cap. We change into Mario for easier maneuvering. Next come the series of elevators. After the first elevator is a tilting ramp with two Red Coins. After that are two elevators moving in opposite directions, which calls for careful platforming so you do not get flipped off. Jump to the other platform of the same elevator before it flips, then jump down to the next elevator. The next Red Coin is in front of the last elevator. After we get off the elevator, there is a Luigi cap, a Power Flower, and the last Red Coin. The Star appears in the nearby cage. We put on the Luigi cap, use the Vanish Cap, and run through the cage to get the Star.
Star Get #94, 26 Coins, 5 Lives
Getting the Star puts us outside the level, so we go back into the course to get the Switch Star. We quickly slid down the slide and got the Mario cap. At the base of the slide is the Power Flower we need to float along the wall on the left side of the slide. Soon, you'll find a vertical maze. Don't float to the top, because all you'll find is the Star Sphere. We step on the switch and get the Power Flower and float to the top of the maze, recharging in the middle. Towards the top is a 1-up. It took me a few tries, but I got the Star. I released the Power Flower before tripping the switch to save time.
Star Get #95, 34 Coins, 6 Lives

Chief Chilly Challenge - Red Coins and Secret Star
This mission is unique to the Nintendo DS.
The first Red Coin is over the abyss that the grate crosses. Before we get it, we get the Wario cap. Once across the abyss, we get the Metal Cap from the Power Flower. We cross the narrow strip of ice through the gusting winds. There is a black brick block on the other side. This time, it contains a Star.
Star Get #91, 11 Coins, 7 Coins
After getting the secret Star, we get the Metal Cap to go back. The second Red Coin is in the center of a square formation of coins. The gust will pick you up into the coins. I stood slightly off center to get the Red Coin. If you miss, jump back into the abyss to let the gust pick you up and put you on the ledge again. The ledge is much higher than the pond you land in. The third Red Coin is over the pond, closer to the abyss. A Bully knocked me into the abyss.
Take 2- I got the first three Red Coins as Luigi. The fourth is in the middle of the platform with the Bullies. The fifth and sixth ones are over the second and fourth moving ice blocks, respectively. If we climb partway up the mountain, we will find a Power Flower. As Luigi, we can use it to get the Red Coin in the cage at the base of the mountain, near the moving ice blocks. I carefully jumped down the mountain and got it. Around the corner is Mario's cap. With the Power Flower, we can float to the large piece of ice where the last Red Coin is. There is another Power Flower for the return flight. The Star appears near where you got Mario's cap.
Star Get #92, 31 Coins, 6 Lives
Exit the course when you're done.

Goomboss Battle - Red Coins
This mission is unique to the Nintendo DS.
Now that we have Wario, we can gather all of the Red Coins in this course. I started the course as Mario. After moving past the rising stumps, taking poison damage on the way, we come across a platform moving over the abyss to a stump with a black brick block. On the stump is a Goomba with a Wario cap. After getting the cap, we break the block to reveal a Red Coin. When we return to the main part of the course, there is a grate spanning a gap over the poison. We can hang onto this grate, and there is a Red Coin underneath it that we can grab while crossing the gap. There is a Piranha Plant at the end, so be careful. I lost the Wario cap to it. Unfortunately, I fell in the poison gas too many times.
Take 2- I got the Red Coin under the grate and fell into the abyss trying to reach the one in the black brick block.
Take 3- I got 2 Red Coins and fell into the abyss.
Take 4- I got a 1-up from on top of the grate and got the Red Coin underneath it. I got the brick block Red Coin and jumped accidently into the abyss.
Take 5- I got the first two Red Coins, plus a couple of 1-ups. There is another Red Coin on the main level above a rising stump, near the entrance to where you battle Goomboss. I let a Goomba run into me to get rid of the Wario cap. Near the rising stump is the blue Star where you'll find the Star when it appears. Behind it is a series of rising stumps; the last of which is under a Red Coin. That stump doesn't move, but it has a Piranha Plant resting on it. Nearby is a tilting square platform with another Red Coin. Going back to the vine you climbed to reach Goomboss, at the top on the small branch is another Red Coin. Near the Switch Star area is a very tall stump. There is a Goomba wearing a Luigi cap there. We put on the cap and cross the abyss using tilting square platforms. There we will find a Power Flower. We quickly run back to the tree and backflip to a cage. We pass through the grate to find the next Red Coin. There is a Power Flower in the cage in case it runs out before you leave. After letting a Goomba hit us to get rid of the Luigi cap, we go back to the area with the Power Flower. Using it as Mario, we float up to the top of the same stump to find the last Red Coin. We jump down from the stump and get the Star.
Star Get #89, 42 Coins, 4 Lives
All we have to do is exit the level. If you're wondering what's on that far ledge, there is a 1-up on the far ledge of the tall stump with the cage.

Dire, Dire Docks - Inside the Cage
This is a renamed mission unique to the Nintendo DS. The N64 mission title is Collecting the Caps...
We need Luigi for this mission. With Luigi, we swim through the channel to the other area. The sub is still there because we haven't beaten him yet. The Power Flower is on the same wall with the switch, closer to the seal. We get the Power Flower to vanish and swim down to the cage to the left of the seal.
Star Get #75, 4 Coins, 4 Lives
We're halfway done! Only 75 more stars to go! (The DS version has 150 Stars, while the N64 version has 120.)
The next Star is the Manta Ray's Reward.

This is a simple mission. All we have to do is swim through the channel to the other area, get the Vanish Cap, which is next to the Metal Cap, and swim with it to the cage to the left of the Bowser seal. Because I went out of order, and have not yet defeated Bowser, his sub is still there.

Big Boo's Haunt - Eye to Eye in the Secret Room
N64
Now that we have the Vanish Cap, we can tackle the last mission in Big Boo's Haunt. We go up to the second floor and get the Vanish Cap on the balcony near the entrance to the mansion. We wall-jump up to the third floor and go through the door, and the Boo painting around the corner while we're still powered up. Inside is a large Mr. I. We run around the Mr. I once we're visible and it spins down into a Star.
Star Get #59, 0 Coins, 23 Lives
Nintendo DS
We don't need to go under the moat to get this Star. (We can't unlock it for a while, anyway). All we need is the man in green, Luigi! We go up to the second floor, through the second door on the right. We get the Power Flower and backflip to the third floor. Just around the corner is the Boo painting, which we go through to find a large Mr. I and a Boo. After the power runs out, we run around Mr. I once and it spins down into a Star.
Star Get #66, 5 Coins, 4 Lives
The next Star is In the Talons of the Big Bird.

Vanish Cap Under the Moat - 8 Red Coins
This mission is unique to the N64.
If we go through the wood door to the right of the door to the Hazy Maze Cave in the basement, we will find a flooded tunnel. After swimming to the other side, we find a sign saying "It is decreed that one shall pound the pillars." There are two pillars nearby sticking out from the water. We pound them both once, hear a chime, and the water drains. We can now go through the door to the outside. Once we go through the door, we find the moat mostly drained. We walk towards the waterfall and find a hole in the ground. We go into the hole and into another area.
We get a message when we land: "Welcome to the Vanish Cap Switch Course! All of the blue blocks you find will become solid once you step on the Cap Switch. You'll disappear when you put on the Vanish Cap, so you'll be able to elude enemies and walk through many things. Try it out!" We will! When we land, Mario is grainy and fuzzy, which means, we can pass through enemies like they weren't there. The first 4 Red Coins are down the slide in front of us. The Red Coins are on ledges, so we want to slide slowly to get them and jump to other ledges. We must start on the left side of the slide (when facing it) and slide for the first Red Coin. We move about 1/3 to the right for the second. The third and fourth are in the center and on the right side of the slide. There are also 3 1-ups on the slide. Once we reach the bottom of the slide, we dodge flaming orbs and run around the corner. Coins 5-7 are over elevators that flip at the top. The last one was difficult to negotiate as it is going in the opposite direction of the others. I fell off here several times. If you do fall off, you will exit from the waterfall without losing a life. Around this time, the Vanish Cap may be running out. After the last elevator, the Vanish Cap Switch is nearby. The last Red Coin is on a platform nearby and the Star is in a cage with only an opening at the bottom. We can't get to it normally, so we step on the Vanish Cap Switch. We get a message: "You've just stepped on the Vanish Cap Switch. The Vanish Cap makes Mario disappear. Now Vanish Caps will pop from all of the blue blocks you find! Would you like top Save? Yes/No"
We hit the blue block nearby for a translucent cap. We turn grainy before Mario actually puts the cap on his head. we walk through the cage for the Star.

Jolly Roger Bay - Switch Star of the Bay
This mission is unique to the Nintend DS.
Now that we have Luigi, we can get some new Stars. We swim into the cave. There is an item block with a Power Flower, which will have the same effect as the Vanish Cap, which we haven't found yet in the N64. It doesn't last as long as the Wing Cap, but has the same music. We get a message: "The Power Flower turned Luigi invisible. Now he'll be able to elude enemies and walk through many things. Try it out!" We run to the right wall. Behind a rock is a Star Switch, so we step on it. The Star appears in a cage. Because we are invisible, we can run right through it and get the Star. We get the Star before time and the Power Flower run out.
Star Get #46, 6 Coins, 4 Lives
The next Star is Swimming Beast in the Cavern.
