Sunglasses in Delfino Plaza
To get the sunglasses, talk to the man wearing glasses on the
beach in Delfino Plaza. The sunglasses tint your screen as if you
were actually wearing them. He is also found in many other levels.
He will not give them to you if you have less that 20 Shine
Sprites. Talk to him again to take them off.
Delfino Plaza, lighting up Isle Delfino
The more Shine Sprites you collect, the more sun will get though..
When you have collected sixty Shines, all of Isle Delfino will light up.
Coins in Gelato Beach
There are four points where you spray the ground and a shape of a
sun appears. One is where Yoshi is located, two are to the left
and right of the island, and one is in the middle. All are on the
sand. You will receive a Blue Coin. Also, there are two or three
Blue Coins out in the water.
Bring watermelons to the stand to exchange for Coins. Dive into
the watermelon. A Coin will appear. You only get about ten Coins
from a watermelon.
Episode 8 is a great place to get 100 Coins. Bring in the
watermelons for some Coins and do not forget swings out in the water.
Shine Sprite in Gelato Beach
Jump up to the level of sand that is on the same level as the two
mirrors. There is a Dune Bud there. Shoot it with water and what
looks like stairs going down will appear. Quickly shoot the wall
opposite the stairs and a Shine Sprite picture will appear. Once
the picture is complete, a Shine Sprite will appear.
Near Gelato Beach (the lighthouse), spray all around the area to
uncover a Shine Sprite.
Extra Lives in Delfino
When in Delfino Plaza, go to the beach. There is a hidden sewer
grate. Spray around until you see the red circle just past the
second umbrella. Ground Pound to go into the sewer ad find a 1-Up
Mushroom there. Enter a stage, exit, go back, and repeat as needed.
Coins in Delfino Plaza
Spray the wanted of Mario posters in Delfino Plaza to get one Coin
each. Some do not always give Coins.
Spray into an open window in Delfino Bay to receive Coins.
In Delfino Plaza, most coins are in the underground manhole
tunnels. Also try eating birds with Yoshi.
The best way to get 100 Coins is to defeat Bowser and get access
to the airstrip. You can easily get 100 coins there. Otherwise,
you can travel the underground pipes to collect coins and spray
the "Mario Wanted" posters.
When in Isle Defino, collect 50 Coins to get one life then go to
the Pianta who throws you into the window. Pay him one Coin, then
steer away from the window and get another coin. You will get
another life. Repeat the process for more lives.
Shine Sprites in Delfino Plaza
In Delfino Plaza A, go to the far end of the beach near the
lighthouse. Spray all over the sand until you find an area where
the sparks fly. Focus the water there until a Shine Sprite appears.
In Delfino Plaza B around the lighthouse area, find the pillars in
the water. Jump from pillar to pillar using your Hover Nozzle.
Jump until you get to a pillar with a pipe on it. Go into the
pipe, and complete the obstacle course to get a Shine Sprite.
In Delfino Plaza C, on the west side of the plaza, there is a man
on a rooftop with a weathervane that asks you if you want to pay a
Coin to be thrown. Face the bridge with the tower on top and ask.
You will be picked up and thrown into the tower, where a Shine
Sprite is waiting for you.
In Delfino Plaza D, on the left side of the big tower with the
defaced Shine Sprite, go into an open building. A man will give
you a Shine Sprite if you break all the boxes in the room in 30
seconds or less. This is easy -- just do the Ground Pound (A + L).
After that, you can go back and face even more boxes stacked up,
and you will get a Shine Sprite. This is more difficult than the
first time. Use a group of two stacked up boxes to get to the
higher stacks and work your way down.
You can still do the crate mini-game on Delfino Plaza even after
you get all the Shine Sprites from it. This will restore all the
Coins and 1-Up Mushrooms in the level, but you will keep all the
Coins you had when you starting the mini-game. Use this to get as
many lives and coins as desired.
In Delfino Plaza E, Go to where the bridge crosses over a harbor
where a boat constantly goes under. Get on top of the boat, and
where the Coin is floating under the bridge, do a double jump into
the Coin. You will surpass it and fly into a level where you must
collect eight Red Coins to get a star. Its very difficult, but very fun.
Wash both of the bells in Delfino Plaza to get two Shine Sprites.
Wash the big sprite to get a Shine Sprite in Delfino Plaza. Do
this by using the Rocket Nozzle.
Get the Yoshi on the roof then go to the manhole near where one of
the boats are located. Go under the bridge, where the Coin
hovering under the bridge is located. Go in the manhole and get to
the island with the lady with the basket. While waiting for the
second boat to come in, spit down a couple of coconuts to save on
the ground. When the boat arrives and starts to circle the island,
eat the coconut for the long trip, then jump on the boat. When the
boat gets to the little tower where the banana is located, hop on
the tower and wait for the third boat. When it gets near, eat the
banana and hop on that boat. Ride it to the island where the
stranded guy is located with the campfire. Spit with Yoshi on the
stuff blocking the pipe. Hop into the pipe and it will take you to
another star puzzle where you have to get on a leaf and squirt to
go downstream and get the Red Coins. If you miss some, try to
hover to a ledge and work your way through the channel, picking up
Red Coins by hovering over then and landing on the ledge on the other side.
On the eastern part of the town, swim to the island where there is
a man , a fire, and a pipe. There will be a yellow bird on the
island. Spray the bird about three times and a Shine Sprite will
appear on the pillars near the lighthouse.
Get a Rocket attachment and go to the lighthouse. Once there,
rocket to the top of the lighthouse. You should be standing on a
Black Pad with a fire symbol. Rocket up, and when high up, Ground
Pound. The Black Pad should break, giving you a Shine Sprite.
Look for the little island by the place with all the fruit stands.
Go there but do not go on the right side. Instead, try to swim
towards the left side. You will see a yellow bird. Do not go to
it. Stay where you are, enter look mode, then squirt it. If it
flies in circles in the sky, remain in look mode and keep
squirting it. A Shine Sprite will appear on those mountains by the
lighthouse. You will need Yoshi to get it.
To get an extra Shine Sprite on a fairly easy sub-world, get the
rocket FLUDD attachment and head towards the red cannon at Delfino
Plaza. Swim along the right side near the rocks and pass the
sideways hanging palm trees. Just past it, charge your rocket and
jump just before the meter fills up. You will be able to enter a
pipe on a tiny cliff. The mission is to collect eight Red Coins on
one supply of water -- fill up before going there. There are two
obvious Red Coins sitting around. To get the other Coins, shoot
the red bird that flies around, extinguish the man on fire (shoot
only when you have a clear shot to preserve water), jump on the
two Flowerheads, shoot one Purple Flowerhead from a distance and
jump on him, look around the high grass for an opening where a Red
Coin lies just below (look near or around the edges of this area).
To get this Shine Sprite you need the Speed Nozzle (28 Shines
required). In Delfino Plaza run around and face the "M" on the
statue. Look to your left and you will see a building with
swinging doors. It is the building where the man tells you to get
the graffiti off his wall. Run up to the doors and charge up your
Speed Nozzle. When you release it, it will shoot you through the
doors where you can get the Shine Sprite.
Higher jumps with Yoshi
Do Mario's spinning technique when on Yoshi to jump higher. He can
also spit juice in this form.
Triple jump with Yoshi
If you run and jump three times with Yoshi, you can do a triple
jump similar to Mario's, but without the extra animation.
Yoshi's Spritzer Squirt
Press R, then press A.
Sunglasses and shirt Pianta location
The following is where the Pianta man that gives you the
sunglasses is located in each level.
Delfino Plaza: Fruits Street.
Bianco Hilles: Near the start point.
Ricco Harbor: Near the start point.
Gelato Beach: Beach house.
Pinna Park: Near the start point.
Sirena Beach and Noki Bay: Not found in this level.
Pianta Village: In the village during the daytime only.
Extra lives in Bianco Hills
After you complete episode 3 (The Hillside Cave Secret), go back
into Bianco Hills and choose episode 4. Instead of doing that
episode, go back to the hillside cave. This time you do not lose
FLUDD. There is a secret level up there, where if you press the
red plunger you have to collect red coins in the allotted time. Do
not hit it. Simply go up to the first wood platform with nails and
Ground Pound the right nail three times until the 1-Up appears.
Then, using the Hover Nozzle, make your way toward the end of the
level. You will see the second 1-Up in the air above the second
star. Use the Hover Nozzle again to get it without worrying about
your step. Then, simply fall and die. Since you collected two
1-Ups, you will have a net gain of one 1-Up, The game starts you
at the beginning of the cave, where you can repeat this as many
times as desired to build up your extra lives. Once you get used
to it, this will take about 30 to 45 seconds each time. When done,
you can either do the red coin deal (gives you a Shine), or jump
to the non-lit Shine to exit. Since you did not die, this time you
will have a net gain of two 1-Ups.
When you start episode 6 you will see an extra life that you can
get each time you die.
Coins in Bianco Hills
Go into episode 3 and kill many enemies to get Coins. Splatter
fake flowers against the wall to get three Coins.
Your best chance to pick up 100 Coins is in episode 3. There are
lots of easy to find Coins. Do not forget to splat enemies on the
ground, in the trees, and the two bird-like things in the air
outside of the gate.
Yoshi or Turbo Nozzle in Bianco Hills
If you want Yoshi and the Turbo Nozzle, do the same requirements
to get Yoshi, but before you complete Pinna Park episode 4, try to
have 25 Shine Sprites. When you get Yoshi, enter Bianco Hills. As
soon as you get there, exit, then chase the fake Mario and get the
Turbo Nozzle. When you go by the place you enter Bianco Hills, you
can use the Turbo Nozzle or Yoshi
Coins in Corona Mountain
There are ten Blue Coins in Corona Mountain. Try to get all of
them in the boat.
Ending bonus
Successfully complete and save the game. You can pay 10 coins to
use a boat near the clock tower where Yoshi is found to return to
the Airport level at the start of the game. Additionally, you can
get a shirt covered with Shine pictures from the man wearing
sunglasses gives Mario sunglasses normally the game.
Alternate ending screen
If you complete the game with 119 Shine Sprites or less you will
get an ending screen in which el Piantissimo inspects the
paintbrush. However, if you finish it with all 120 Shine Sprites,
the ending screen will show all the characters in the game.
There are 240 Blue Coins and 120 Shine Sprites. You need 50 Shine
Sprites and have level 7 completed on all seven stages to get to
level 8. You only need 117 Shine Sprites to complete the game to
get one ending. Get the last three Shine Sprites to see a
different ending. Get the shirt and glasses for a different
appearing ending.
Yoshi juice
After eating a fruit, Yoshi can then spit out juice to defeat enemies.
Different fruit affects the color of your juice spray. Purple
juice turns enemies into floating platforms that go left, right,
or straight and back. Pink juice turns enemies into pink platforms
that go up and down. Orange juice creates stationary platforms.
While you are on Yoshi when talking to someone, press R and you
can spray them with juice.
? Yoshi
Go into a manhole with Yoshi and he will turn into a ?.
Mystery door in Noki Bay
Go to episode 3 and go to the bottom of the bottle. You can go
into one of the notches in the little building. You will see a
door. Move the camera around to the other side of the door to see
a book on the other side. There does not seem to be a way in the door.
Extra lives in Pianta Village
Select episode 5 (Secret Of The Village Underside). Get Yoshi and
go to the beginning mushroom. Go to the end, following them and
spray Yoshi's juice on the yellow-orange "squiggles". Go into the
hole that appears and you should see Chucksters. They throw you
behind them -- talk to them at the opposite angle that you want to
be thrown to until you reach a place that has pictures with big
noses that run after you. Spray three to six of them, then jump on
one. All of the ones that are upside down will also die, giving
you an extra life. They always return unless you spray the picture
of the ones on the wall that is a kind of portal they go through.
Repeat this until you have as many lives as needed.
Easy lives
Whenever you complete a level, go to the water directly next to
where the boats go in and out. Dive all the way to the bottom and
you will see a 1-Up Mushroom. Whenever you return from a level or
start from the beginning, it will be there.
Go to the island where the man is stranded and spray the fire. A
1-Up Mushroom will appear.
Anybody that gives you a blue coin the first time you wash them
off, or get them fruit, will also give you a 1-Up if you wash them
off or get them fruit again.
There is a manhole near the fruit stands near the lighthouse. Hop
in it and go towards the lighthouse. As soon as you have a choice
to go towards the water, do so. Follow the path to a 1-Up Mushroom.
Avoid dying
Pause game play when you are about to die and select "Exit Area".
You will be teleported in front of the level you were at and not
lose a life. This does not work if you are falling.
Defeating Bowser
Bowser will shoot flames at you. Use the Rocket Nozzle to jump
over them. Also spray the Bullet Bills that Baby Bowser shoots
out. Go to each of the five fire symbols and shoot the Rocket
Nozzle directly above them. Then, at your highest point, do a
Ground Pound. Watch out though; the ledge falls off when you pound
it. If you fall, use the Rocket Nozzle to try and get back up. Do
this on all five of the symbols.
