Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
The Purple Coins are scattered all over the main planet; underwater, in the air, and on top of the planet. Check the tops of all of the palm trees; some of the less obvious coins are there. We can reach some coins using the swing and the vine. In the middle of the water is a rock with a Purple Coin, so we wall-jump and spin to reach it. There's a Spring Shroom on the planet, so we can reach the coin high behind the waterfall and spring to the top parts of the planet for more coins. There is a white circular rock with coins high above it. We need to spring to reach them. There are more Purple Coins at the very top of the planet. The Star appears by the coach.

We search high and low over the planet and find all 100 coins in the same locations.

Loopdeeswoop Galaxy - The Galaxy's Greatest Wave
Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
We access this galaxy from the green Luma on the blue part of the planet. We land in the galaxy with a large, looping river floating in space. The Beach Bowl music plays. It's time to go ray surfing again! We hop over to the coach, who says, "You again? Back for more ray surfing? This course is a monster. You sure you want to try? No / Yes" We say "yes" and he says, "OK, you got three minutes to get back here. Stay calm, and just enjoy the surf." The best time is 01:30:00, but I'm going to take my time here. I took it slow, especially on the turns. The water is much choppier than Loopdeeloop. This took me two attempts. I reached the end. The coach says, "02:15:45? Great work! Try to do even better next time!" He pulls out a Star and it flies over the first place ranking. Now that I have the Star, my work here is done, and I am not going to try to improve my score with Mario. Let's see if I can do better with Luigi.
Star Get #104, Galaxy Complete!, 14 Coins, 35 Lives

Before we talk to the coach, we talk to one of the penguins, who says, "Don't forget how to control Ray! That could end badly." Indeed, it could. It takes me two attempts, but I finish faster with Luigi, with a time of 01:55:08. We get the Star.

Sea Slide Galaxy - Faster Than a Speeding Penguin
Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
We land in the galaxy, where the Toad Brigade is building a cannon and penguins are hanging out on a sandbar near the tower. Guppy is peacefully hanging out in the water.The Penguins are going to have a race and ask us if we want to join in. We say yes and find ourselves in the water with our four competitors. The race starts and we dive and spin until we find a shell. We go through rings, just as we did with Cosmic Mario, and eventually pass the red penguin in the lead. The "best time" is 01:30:00, but we win with 01:24:40. The red penguin says, "01:24:40! Nice! Here's your
gold medal, champ!" He pulls a Star.

We land in the galaxy and green Toad informs us that "It's going to take a while to get the cannon ready. Hang on!" We start the race, grab a shell and win with a time of 01:23:83.

Sea Slide Galaxy - Going after Guppy
Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
We land in the galaxy, which is a floating river in space where the Beach Bowl music plays. Falling off the planet means death, but we'll be fine diving down to the bottom of the sea. The Toad Brigade is there, as well as penguins, and both parties are complaining about a bully in the water that's preventing everyone from swimming. They also tell us we can swim with a shell and dive with [Z]. We swim up to a shark named Guppy, who says, "Now who do we have here? You some friends of those penguins? Let's get something clear here, landwalker. This sea's mine, see? If you want it back, show me some gills and make it through eight rings!" He starts swimming away, leaving yellow and white striped rings in his wake. We have to swim through all of them, like in "The Manta Ray's Reward". The rings have numbers that count down from eight. After the first one, we can grab a shell so we go faster, as there is a time limit to how long a ring will be in place. We follow Guppy through the entire sea ring, swimming through each ring. We end up back where we started and the Star appears. Guppy says, "Not bad, for a landwalker. Well, I'm a fish of my word. The sea's all yours, buddy." The penguins congratulate us. A Sling Star has appeared, which will take us to a floating Starshroom, where we can see that the entire galaxy is a ring. We sling back for the Star.
Star Get #70, 2 Coins, 2724 Star Bits, 10 Lives

We swim up to Guppy and take his eight ring challenge. I got a shell after the second ring, because I missed the first one. I got all eight rings and the Star.

Freezeflame Galaxy -The Frozen Peak of Baron Brrr
Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
We catch the penguin again for the Launch Star. After getting the Ice Flower, we climb the mountain, going forward instead of to the right, where the water sprayers are. At this point, I was joined by a Co-Star, Noelle. We hop up the pushing walls that form a staircase and cross the icy water by jumping over the bobbing platform. We get another Ice Flower, cross the water and hop over pushing walls and reach some water sprayers that bring us to Baron Brrr. He starts throwing ice chunks at us. We hop on the platforms bobbing in the icy water and go under the platform he floats over. We break crystals to reveal an Ice Flower. We use it and skate to the front of his platform and quickly wall-jump up the sides to reach him. All we have to do is treat him like a Lil' Brrr, spin them to shrink them down, then run into them to kick them. This one we have to do three times to defeat. He hops around a lot, making him hard to kick. To make him easier to spin, he slams into the ground and gets stuck briefly, but this causes a shockwave you need to dodge. He summons Lil' Brrrs, which you can kill for coins. He explodes when defeated and the Star appears.

We battle Baron Brrr without a Co-Star. We catch the penguin and launch. We get the Ice Flower and climb up the mountain, going toward the pushing walls. I died from a Lil' Brrr.
Take 2- We get another Ice Flower and jump over the pushing walls and water sprayers, reaching Baron Brrr. I got another Ice flower and was hit by an ice chunk. We skate to reach Baron Brrr and wall-jump up to his platform. We spin and kick him three times for the Star.

Freezeflame Galaxy - Conquering the Summit
Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
We land on a ring of ice where the Ghostly Galaxy music plays. The ice is slippery, but we can gain effective control by shaking to skate. Should we desire, we can skate backwards with [Z] and execute triple axels on command with (A). We see a penguin, who says, "Hey, old man! Are you practicing how to skate too? Well, why don't we play a game? Can you catch me?" He starts sliding around the ring on his belly, saying, "How could one penguin move SO fast?" We stay toward the inner edge and skate to the underside when he does. While we were skating backwards, we caught him. He says, "Not bad, old man! With skating skills like that, you might have a chance. A small chance, maybe, but a chance!" A Launch Star appears, and with that ringing endorsement, we take off for the main ice planet.
We land at the top of the slide that leads to the base of the mountain. The ice version of the Freezeflame music plays. We hop over platforms bobbing in the icy water. As in Super Mario 64, if we stay in this water, we'll lose health. Over a large ice platoform is a ? Coin, which makes an Ice Flower appear a couple of platforms away. We can now safely cross the icy water. We get the Ice Flower and jump onto blue and orange water spouts to create temporary platforms. We hop up those above the water and go to the right to find more. We hop up these and find a Sling Star. We fly around the mountain and land on a ledge with a couple of snowmen with buckets for hats. There is a Fire Flower in a nearby crystal. We get it and a message: "You transformed into Fire Mario! Shake to shoot fireballs." The Fire Flower music is a slight variation on the Ice Flower music. We can now destroy the snowmen and the ice bats, which will freeze us on contact. We remove the snowman on the other side of the gap with a couple fireballs, making sure they bounce off the ledge we're standing on so they hit it. We climb up the pushing walls and take out the snowman on top for a Sling Star. (The Fire Flower will reappear where you found it in case you run out of power. We sling around the mountain and take out a giant snowman with fireballs (there's a Fire Flower nearby). We have to climb down the slope, dodging bats and boulders. I died twice from the boulders. I also died from an ice bat. We walked around, climbing a pushing wall and reaching a higher part of the summit. We used a Sling Star in a snowman to go higher, walking around a narrow path and dodging an ice bat. We wall-jumped in front of three stacked pushing walls to reach the summit and the Star.

Drip Drop Galaxy - Giant Eel Outbreak
Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
We fed the Hungry Luma outside the Kitchen 600 Star Bits to access this galaxy.
We land in the galaxy on a planet that is a giant sphere of water with sunken ships. Slow, eerie, spacey music plays. We land on an island with a bunch of penguins. One of them tells us, "Giant Gringills have been terrorizing the waters lately! Can you help us?" Another says, "Gringills like those could gobble us up in one bite! Can you beat those Gringills by hitting them with shells?" So the eels called Gringills have been terrorizing the penguins, keeping them from swimming in the waters and from catching fish. The penguins give us instructions on how to swim with shells (use [Z] to dive and brake, shake to throw the shell), telling us to get air bubbles or coins if our Air Meter runs low. If it runs out, we will lose health. They also tell us that Red Shells will hone in on the enemy, like in Mario Kart.
We grab a shell and dive in. We track one Gringill down, and, with careful aim, hit it with a shell and kill it. It poofs into Star Bits. We can see a sunken Starshroom underwater, as well as Torpedo Teds and treasure chests. Treasure chests may contain Red Shells, which makes our job easier, but we must see a Gringill before a Red Shell will be able to hit it. We kill the last two, for a total of three. Once we kill all of them, the Star appears over a sunken ship. The Penguins are congratulatory and want to fish.

Loopdeeloop Galaxy - Surfing 101
Welcome to the Galaxy!
Mario
We land on a planet in a bright galaxy. There is a fast-flowing river floating in space. Beach Bowl music plays. There are penguins here. They say that this is penguin paradise and that they surf on manta rays. We go up to the big penguin with the whistle, who's the coach. In the water is a purple manta ray.
The coach says, "That cute little guy over there is Ray! Are you a surfer too? Yes/ No way" If you answer "No way", he says, "I see... Well, if you chage your mind, let me know." If you answer "Yes", he says, "Oh, but this is your first time ray surfing, right? Well then, let me show you the ropes." We are now standing on the back of Ray. "Now let me explain. Point your Wiimote a the screen." Checks appear to let you know you're following instructions. "Yeah, yeah... That's the basic position. To turn left, twist the Wiimote left from that starting position. Correct! That's how you turn left! To turn right, twist the Wiimote to the right. Yup! That's how you turn left! Then, all you need to do is hold down (A) to speed up. That's all you need to know. Now give it a go on the course!"
The first part of the course allows to get coins while getting a feel for ray surfing. We go into the tunnel to start the race. Penguins cheer us on from the sidelines. The best time is 1:30:00. I'm not trying to beat any speed records, just trying to stay alive. The course is basically a figure-8. Ray surfing music plays. We take it slow, winding around the course until we reach the "sun" that is the finish line. We get a 1-up on the way. When we finish, we go up to the ranking platform where the coach is. He says, "01:29:41? Congratulations! You deserve a Gold Medal!" He pulls out a Star, which flies over to the 1st Place ranking.
Star Get #9, Galaxy Complete!, 44 Coins, 17 Lives
There are Star Bits on the course, but getting them may require moving out of your basic position, which may cause you to fall off. Get a Co-Star to get them.
Luigi
We land in the galaxy and get ray surfing instructions. I get all of the coins in the trial area. We start the race and get a 1-up. I fell off the track onto a lower portion, which was lucky. I reached the goal and fell off in the cutscene, but still lived. My time was 01:54:05 and we get the Star.

After the Final Battle
N64
We get the large Power Star. It becomes a Wing Cap and Mario circles the arena, until he falls from the sky, lands in front of the castle bridge, and the Wing Cap fades. The large Power Star flies up to the stain glass window of Peach and she appears, in her original pink dress, hands over her heart, eyes closed, and hair down. (If we look closely, we can see Yoshi on the roof.) She lands on the bridge, between two Toads. Mario runs up to her and takes off his hat. She wakes up and says "Mario! The Power of the Stars is restored to the castle... and it's all thanks to you! Thank you, Mario! We have to do something special for you." She kisses him on the nose and he nods, putting his cap back on, with a "Here we go!" Peach says, "Listen, everybody! Let's bake a delicious cake... for Mario." Peach and the Toads walk to the castle, while Mario lingers, looking at the sky. Peach calls "Mario!" and he goes inside. The credits roll, showing places we've been and friends and enemies we've met. At the end, we see a cake with Mario and Peach figurines surrounded by a tea setting. A bar of chocolate on the cake says "THANK YOU"
THE END
The cannon outside the castle is now open. We launch to the roof, where we find three 1-ups and Yoshi, who says "Mario!!! It that really you??? It has been so long since our last adventure! They told me that I might see you if I waited here, but I'd just about given up hope! It is true? have you really beaten Bowser? And restored the Stars to the castle? And saved the Princess? I knew you could do it! Nwo I have a very special message for you. "Thanks for playing Super Mario 64! This is the end of the game, but not the end of the fun. We want you to keep playing, so we ahve a little something for you. We hope that you like it! Enjoy!!!" The Super Mario 64 Team"
We get 99 Lives. Yoshi jumps off the roof with a sparkly Triple Jump. We get a new Triple Jump as well.
If we go back into Cool, Cool, Mountain's Big Penguin Race, we find the penguin much larger than we last saw him. He says, "What's up, pal? I haven't been on the slide lately, so I'm out of shape. Still, I'm always up for a good race... Especially against an old sleddin' buddy! Whaddya say? Ready...set... Go!/ No thanks" He is faster and obscures the track. He says the same thing when you win as earlier.

We get the large Power Star. It becomes a Wing Cap and Mario flies around the arena. He falls from the sky, and lands in front of the castle bridge, next to Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario. The Wing Cap's power fades. The large Power Star appears (as well as some twinkling on the Touch Screen). The camera focuses on the stain-glass window of Peach. She appears from the window, hair in a ponytail. Stars appear on the Touch Screen. She floats gently down to the bridge, eyes closed, hands clasped. She is wearing her updated dress. Yoshi runs up to her and stands beside her. Mario walks up to her and takes off his hat. Luigi and Wario walk up. The Stars on the Touch Screen move in a circle. Peach wakes up and says "Oh! Yoshi! The Power of the Stars is restored to the castle... and it's all thanks to you! Thank you all! We have to do something special for you!" She kisses Mario on the nose, he nods, and puts his cap back on, saying "Here we go!" Peach says, "Listen... Let's bake a delicious cake... ...for my heroes!" All of them walk into the castle, except Yoshi, who lingers to look at the sky. Peach calls to him "Yoshi!" and he goes inside the castle.
The credits roll, showing us where we've been. All of the courses and some of the enemies and friends we've met. On the Touch Screen, we see a cake, which is slowly decorated through the credits. All of the characters you've unlocked will appear as figurines on the cake. Yoshi, Mario, Wario, Luigi, and Peach stand on the cake. All the characters wave goodbye from the bridge and Lakitu flies off. We then see the cake with some tea settings. The cake has a bar of chocolate that says "THANK YOU".
THE END
The cannon outside the castle will now be open. If we go on the roof, we'll find three 1-ups and a Power Flower or Wing Cap.

We get the large Power Star. It becomes a Wing Cap and Mario circles the arena, until he falls from the sky, lands in front of the castle bridge, and the Wing Cap fades. The large Power Star flies up to the stain glass window of Peach and she appears, in her original pink dress, hands over her heart, eyes closed, and hair down. (If we look closely, we can see Yoshi on the roof.) She lands on the bridge, between two Toads. Mario runs up to her and takes off his hat. She wakes up and says "Mario! The Power of the Stars is restored to the castle... and it's all thanks to you! Thank you, Mario! We have to do something special for you." She kisses him on the nose and he nods, putting his cap back on, with a "Here we go!" Peach says, "Listen, everybody! Let's bake a delicious cake... for Mario." Peach and the Toads walk to the castle, while Mario lingers, looking at the sky. Peach calls "Mario!" and he goes inside. The credits roll, showing places we've been and friends and enemies we've met. At the end, we see a cake with Mario and Peach figurines surrounded by a tea setting. A bar of chocolate on the cake says "THANK YOU"
THE END
The cannon outside the castle is now open. We launch to the roof, where we find three 1-ups and Yoshi, who says "Mario!!! It that really you??? It has been so long since our last adventure! They told me that I might see you if I waited here, but I'd just about given up hope! It is true? have you really beaten Bowser? And restored the Stars to the castle? And saved the Princess? I knew you could do it! Nwo I have a very special message for you. "Thanks for playing Super Mario 64! This is the end of the game, but not the end of the fun. We want you to keep playing, so we ahve a little something for you. We hope that you like it! Enjoy!!!" The Super Mario 64 Team"

New Super Mario Bros. Wii 9-5 -- Penguin Tower
This is a vertical ice level. There are a few P-switches to produce moving yellow platforms so we can progress. The first P-switch is on the right side. We have to dodge penguins to reach it. After using the platform to ascend, I climbed higher up the path with ice blocks. I got a Penguin Suit and slide down the slope with a pipe and jumped up to get the 1st Star Coin. Soon after, the 2nd Star Coin is on the left side. I wall-jumped and spun to reach it. It took a few tries. Nearby on the right side is the next P-switch. Past that are a bunch of Fuzzies. Once you get past the large ring, there are 2 rings, one with 2 Fuzzies and four blocks, and another with just a Fuzzy. Over the lone Fuzzy is the 3rd Star Coin. I froze the lone Fuzzy while standing on a block in the ring and used it as a platform so I could jump to the Star Coin. Alternatively, you can use a Propeller Suit if you have one. At the top of the level are 3 more Fuzzies in between small ice platforms. The pipe to the goal is to the left. I froze the Fuzzies and used them as platforms to reach the pipe. I then made it to the goal. This took me 26 tries.
