Defeating the Goomboss

As Yoshi, run around the arena as fast as possible and try to get behind the Goomboss. Swallow a Goomba that follows him. Wait for it to become an egg and throw it at him. Repeat this two more times.

Fun with Goomboss

Go back to the place behind the Princess's Drawers to the door with an 8 on it with Mario. Enter the fight with Goomboss, and eventually he will throw a mushroom. Touch the mushroom and Mario will grow tall, just like in the classic Mario games.

Defeating King Boo

Get to King Boo by going through the Luigi picture in the Boo House. You can tell where he is when he disappears in the mirror by looking for his shadow on the floor.

Defeating Koopa the Quick

After you challenge Koopa the Quick, run up the bridge as usual. However, when you get past the bridge, run over to the flower patch near the red block. If you go to around the middle of it, you should teleport directly in front of the mountain. From there, instead of going to where the rolling bowling balls are found, go up the steep hill. This may not seem it is faster, but it is. Continue running up the mountain until you reach the first hole where the bowling balls are coming from. Jump into the hole. You should be teleported to the second bowling ball hole. Then, run up to the flag. If done correctly, this should be an unbeatable strategy for defeating Koopa the Quick.

When at the Bomb Omb Field and racing, go to the middle of the flowers. You will teleport. When you see a big hole, get into it and to teleport again.

Fight Bowser without using Mario

When you collect the numbers of Stars to open the Star Door with Mario, switch with Luigi, Wario, or Yoshi. Note: Yoshi will not grab him, but Bowser will spit out a Luigi cap.

Defeating Lethal Bombs

To kill the Lethal Bombs, either jump at them or punch/kick them ahead of time.

Extra lives in third Bowser battle

Walk behind the top left pillar to collect an extra life if you lose a life during the battle.

When you get to the pipe where Bowser is on, there is an extra life at the last pillar on the left. Get it, and every time you fight Bowser and lose go to the same location and get the extra life.

Shortcut to King Bomb-Omb

When you get past the gate, you will see hill with a red coin. The only way to get up that hill is to hold Y (dash). Every once in a while, change the camera angle. Another way is by transportation. Go along the normal path of the level and you will eventually see a hole in the wall. Stand in that hole and do not press anything. You will be instantly warped to the second top layer of the mountain. The last way are the cannons. Just blast yourself up there, but be careful. Mario flies slightly below the target. Make sure you raise the cannon a little above your target. This will save some time.

Send Goomba fying to the air

As Wario, jump kick a Goomba. He will go flying into the air.
