unlock Yoshi mode You do not need all the red coins. In Yoshi mode, you must find two
Yoshi eggs hidden behind the potion doors. There are two eggs for each stage.
Successfully complete the Yoshi Challenge to play as Yoshi. The egg on the hill at the title page will burst open, confirming that you have unlocked Yoshi.
Hint: Bald Birdo:
Get to a part in the game where you fight Birdo. Jump on her head and press B,
as if you were picking a vegetable. You will pick up her Bow. You can either throw it at
her, which causes it to appear back on her head, or throw it off the edge or something so
she is bald.
Hint: Free hearts:
Find a giant enemy and throw them. Do not through them off a ledge or into an
enemy. A heart will pop out of them. You can do this as many times as needed if you do not
kill them.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: Easy
coins:
When you use the magic potion to get the mushrooms, do not pick up the
surrounding vegetables (which are coins in the magic door) immediately. Instead, find the
location in each level where there are the most vegetables that are close together. Drop
the magic potion and go in the door. Pick up as many coins as possible. Repeat this once,
after doing something that will make the potion reappear (such as climbing a vine, going
down a pipe, or entering a door).
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: Extra
lives:
Each time the spinners start in the bonus round, the second symbol in the
first slot is always a cherry. If done correctly, you can guarantee yourself an average at
least one extra life per coin.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World
1-2: Shortcut:
In World 1-2, select Luigi, get the carpet, and fly to the land. Instead of
getting the key, pick up the hopping Ninja and throw it in front of the door. Then,
prepare a squat jump and wait for him to jump high. If done correctly, you should jump and
reach the hill above you. Then, run past the first door and enter the second one to fight
the Boss.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World
1-3: Warp:
At the end of the outside part, there is a vase object. If you carry a red
liquid in a bottle and throw it there, you will go down.
Take a potion to the last vase (past the door) and throw it. Enter the new door and then the vase to warp to World 4-1.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World
3-1: Easy coins:
In World 3-1, use Toad, because of his lifting power. Fall down the
waterfall, onto the platform where the door is at the bottom. Enter the door and get the
magic potion. Drop it anywhere where there is a continuous stream of coins. Enter this
door, and get as many coins as possible. Go out the door you used to enter, then return,
and repeat once.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World
3-1: Warp:
After you go into the first door, walk into the hole. There is a piece of
land with another door located there. After you are in the door, go to the end, then start
picking weeds. The red ones are placed at random but are usually near the back. If you
want a lot of coins, just throw it where you found it. If you want to warp, just throw it
near the vase object.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World
4-1: Quick ending:
On World 4-1, get the Princess. Go up the vine, but go to the left. Run and
fly to a secret door. Go through the door and use the bombs to blow up the wall. Then,
jump over the top of the screen and run left.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World
4-2: Extra lives:
There is a Giant POW in the level. Use it to kill all of the little
porcupines around you. Go up the vine and go back down. Sacrifice your energy to get to
the POW and kill them again. Go back up and get the Heart by holding Down for a few
seconds and jumping. Repeat the process until you get as many lives as needed.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World 4-2: Warp:
Take a potion in the second part of the stage, to the only vase. Enter the door
and then the vase to warp to World 6-1.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World
4-3: Finding Fry Guy:
Use the Princess in World 4-3. A castle will appear after crossing the
lake. Do not enter the castle. Instead, fly further across the lake to find another part
of the castle.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World 5-3: Warp:
After entering the first door, use Luigi to reach the vase at the top. There is
also a potion located there. Enter the new door and then the vase to warp to World 7-1.
Hint: Super Mario Brothers 2: World
6-3: Shortcut:
In World 6-3, climb the vine or go through the door to get to the next
area. Then, instead of going right through the world, go left into the quicksand while
holding Left. As soon as you see your character's head disappear. Start jumping to
the left. Keep going until you reach a door. Go through the door. You should then be on a
cloud. Keep jumping from cloud to cloud until you see the door, then enter it.
