you can reach the goal without
touching the ground!
0:53
002: Acorn Plains-1
Bubbles all the way
Watch as two players use Baby
Yoshi's bubbles to bounce their
way to the goal without touching
the ground. And check out how
Mario and Luigi switch roles at the
Checkpoint Flag!
1:09
003: Acorn Plains-1
Luigi catches a lift
Watch Luigi catch a ride from his
friends in this Super Play footage.
The other players jump up to hit
Luigi from below to keep him from
touching the ground. As a bonus,
he even earns a 1-Up by jumping
on enough enemies!
0:49
004: Acorn Plains-3
Ride on ice all the way to the goal
Try having players freeze an
enemy in ice and then pick up
the Ice Blocks. You just might
find some cool new ways to
reach the goal!
1:01
005: Acorn Plains-4
A midair stroll with Balloon Baby Yoshi
It's fairly tricky, but as Flying
Squirrel Mario, you can throw
Balloon Baby Yoshi and catch
him again before touching the
ground! Repeat to reach the
goal without touching the ground!
0:59
006: Layer-Cake Desert-2
Fireball frenzy
If you master the art of throwing
fireballs, you can run through
pitch-black areas without slowing
down. Make sure to hit the Pokeys
in their heads to take them out in
one shot!
0:55
007: Sparkling Waters-4
Nonstop synchronized Mario
Four-player synchronicity! It takes
near-perfect harmony for four
players to complete a speed run
like this!
0:51
008: Frosted Glacier-3
Follow that fireball
Run behind your fireballs, and let
them clear enemies from your
path. Note that you can jump on
Prickly Goombas immediately
after they're set ablaze!
0:47
009: Frosted Glacier-3
A barrage of Yoshi fire
Ever created a wall of fireballs with
multiple Yoshis? Have one player
run ahead and shoot fireballs back
at the others. By the end of the
course, you'll have enough
fireballs to conquer any obstacle!
0:24
010: Frosted Glacier-3
Fire dancers on ice
What happens when you combine
Fire Mario with Ice Luigi? This
Super Play video, that's what!
Keep those fireballs coming
nonstop to slide through the
Piranha Plants unharmed.
1:00
011: Soda Jungle-1
Ice Mario puts on a show
Larger enemies will only stay
frozen for a moment, but if you
time it right, you can use them
as a platform! Repeat this
technique throughout the course
for some brilliant nonstop play!
1:11
012: Soda Jungle-1
Bros dribbling to the goal
Luigi kicks the big Shells, and
Mario jumps on them to earn a
string of 1-Ups! Switch back and
forth to earn even more 1-Ups!
It's good to see the bros getting
along so well, isn't it?
1:53
013: Soda Jungle-
Cloud-walking with Balloon Baby Yoshi
Who needs Para-Beetles when
you've got Balloon Baby Yoshi
at your side? Check out this slick
Super Play, and then see if you
can complete the course without
stepping on a single Para-Beetle!
0:53
014: Rock-Candy Mines-1
Frozen Fuzzy fun
The timing can take some practice,
but the experienced ice baller can
make his or her way through this
tricky course while freezing nearly
all the Fuzzies and using many of
them as platforms!
0:27
015: Rock-Candy Mines-5
Flying Squirrel squad
Too many coins and not enough
time? No worries! Bring three
friends to this bonus area, and
collect every last one. There now—
doesn't that feel better?
0:58
016: Meringue Clouds-6
Traveling the Paratroopa way
Just like in certain challenges,
this Super Play involves
completing the course without
using the Snake Block. Hop on
Paratroopas, and use both spin
and triple jumps as you make
your way to the goal!
1:02
017: Meringue Clouds-6
Hopping flights with Luigi
It's the Paratroopa Hop, but
this time for two people! The
trick here is for the second
player to follow closely enough
behind the first to be able to
jump on the defeated Paratroopas
before they drop off the screen.
1:19
018: Peach's Castle-
Fight fire with fire
Did you know you can defeat
Bowser just by hitting him with
fireballs? Well, you can!
If everyone works together
to focus fire and dodge his
attacks, the King of the Koopas
will eventually topple.
1:02
019: Sparkling Waters-5
Munching away with hungry Baby Yoshi
While avoiding the gaze of the Dragoneels,
two Baby Yoshis eat all the Cheep Cheeps
they want! Baby Yoshi's underwater spin
is fast, but it can't make tight turns.
Precision controls and great teamwork
shine in this one.
1:05
020: Frosted Glacier-2
Escorting Peachette
Mario takes point with deadeye fireballs,
while Peachette brings up the rear,
snatching the coins from fallen enemies
from above Luigi. It finishes with the
princess sitting pretty on top of the
Goal Pole!
0:56
021: Rock-Candy Mines-
No-spin Peachette
There may be nothing one can't climb by
making effective use of Peachette's air
moves. Here she climbs to spots usually
only accessible via Screwtop Lifts without
ever using a single one. But will she be
making it through the Fire Bars at the end
unscathed?!
1:20
022: Special Star-2
Air-walk with Balloon Baby Yoshi
The Flying Squirrel Mario and Balloon Baby
Yoshi combo is a big deal in the Special Star
Stages too! Here's a Super Play featuring
some tricks with midair catches and
avoiding the P Switches to rack up a huge
number of coins before the goal. It's like
they think it's a bonus stage!
1:04
023: Special Star-6
Bust through as Mini Mario
A Super Play of Mario weaving in and out of
giant Fire Bars without ever stopping. The
reaction times and decision making needed
to find those gaps between the floor and
the Fire Bars is incredible!
