Super Mario 64: Difference between revisions

Toad informs Mario about [[Bob-omb Battlefield|a Bob-omb field]] where [[Big Bob-omb]] must be faced. The first of many power stars can be found here. By obtaining more [[Power Star]]s, Mario unlocks doors to more paintings in the castle including the [[Whomp's Fortress]], [[Jolly Roger Bay]], [[Cool, Cool Mountain]] and many more, and the ability to collect more stars.

 

When Mario collects 8 of the [[Power Star]]s, he can open the [[Star Door]] at the left side of the castle. He then falls through the floor in the room and enters the first Bowser Course, [[Bowser in the Dark World]]. After travelling through the course, he enters a warp pipe, which leads him to Bowser. After evading Bowser's attacks and grabbing his tail. Mario throws him into a bomb on the edge of the stage defeating him. Unfortunately, it turns out that Bowser doesn't have Princess Toadstool with him. Instead, he runs away, leaving a key for Mario to collect. Mario then obtains the key that allows him to enter the basement of the castle. The basement contains 4 levels, which are [[Lethal Lava Land]], [[Shifting Sand Land]], and [[Hazy Maze Cave]]. After collecting 30 stars, Mario is granted with the ability to open another star door in the basement. The Star Door leads to a room with the entrance to [[Dire, Dire Docks]] and the second Bowser course, [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]]. After navigating through the course, Mario founds and jumps through another a warp pipe that leads him to another battle with Bowser. This battle can be more challenging than the last one, since Bowser can now teleport and tilt the stage. Also, the distance between the arena platform and the bombs has increased. When Mario defeats [owser for the second time, Mario gains a key to the second floor leading to even more paintings. After Mario collects his 50th Power Stars, he can go up to the third floor. And once Mario collects 70 Power Stars, he can access the door into [[Bowser]]'s final stage , [[Bowser in the Sky]], and go through another one of his obstacle courses. After he finds the warp pipe at the end of the course, Mario finds Bowser waiting for him. The two then begin to engage in battle. This time, Bowser has to be blown up by a bomb three times. When Bowser gets blown up twice, certain parts of the arena fall away, leaving the platform in a shape of giant star. Bowser ends up defeated, and is surprised when Mario tells him there were some Power Stars he missed, the Castle's Secret Stars. Bowser gives up, and hands Mario the final Grand Power Star before he disappears. When Mario grabs the last power star, wings appear on his cap, allowing him to fly. He circles the star-shaped arena, and flies away. Eventually, he lands in front of the castle.

 

As his wings fade away, Mario uses the power of the [[Giant Star|Giant Power Star]] to save [[Princess Peach]] and take her back at the front of the castle. The star goes into the stained glass window over the front door of the castle, the window flashes, and Peach slowly descends to the ground. Mario rushes up to her as she opens her eyes. Thanking him, Peach kisses Mario on the nose and says she will bake a cake for him. Peach and two nearby [[Mushroom Retainer]]s walk into the castle. Mario starts to do so himself, but then pauses and turns around to look at the upward. Peach calls him, and he rushes after her. After the credits scroll, Mario, Peach and two Toads wave goodbye to the player, followed by the cake, with Peach and Mario figures, shown at the very end.
