This unlocks the final, and possibly hardest level in the game. If you don't understand those symbols on the dirt mountian at the end of the final world, you'll need to get all of the previous green stars, stamps, and reach all of the gold flags for all previous levels. As long as you are facing the right direction (East/West) the shell will bounce back and forth very fast.

You'll need to return to the level twice to fill up your lives to 1,110 because the time will run out once you hit 600 or so on your first go.Īlternate method: You can get more lives (about 900) if you toss the first shell through the pipe, so that it bounces back and forth on the lip of the lower pipe. This will result in infinite 1-Ups so long as you don't move! Don't press anything else and you will bounce off the Koopa shell and never touch the ground while it bounces infinitely off the rear wall. Throw the Koopa and then immediately jump. Hop up onto the platform with the Goomba and face the rear wall while standing in front of the three brick blocks (press the D-pad UP to aim directly at the wall). Kill the Goomba, then jump on the green Koopa and steal its shell. You can do this by passing the first Koopa and making your way to the area with a second Koopa and a Goomba on a slightly raised platform. You can get 1,110 lives (represented as three crowns by your life counter), in World 1-2. The level is called ' Super Galaxy', an homage to Rosalina's game, Super Mario Galaxy. She can be unlocked by beating the 2nd Level in the Star World - which is unlocked after beating the 'main story' of Mario 3D World. Rosalina is an unlockable playable character in Super Mario 3D World, as revealed in November 13th's Nintendo Direct.
