Have fun watching the intro, then, as soon as you gain control of mario, go
up the stairs and into the big door at the top.  Now go up the stairs on
your left or right, and go through the door at the top.  Follow the red
carpet and go through the door at the end of the hallway.  Proceed down
this hall until you meet Peach.  Watch the little sequence(its pretty cool).
Next thing you know you will be fighting Bowser.  It doesn't really matter
what you do, you will lose the battle.  Watch another sequence.



Prologue

Once you gain control of Mario again, leave the house and go outside.  Talk
to all of the Goombas twice.  Now go into the Goomba's home and talk to the
Grandma Goomba(Gooma) twice, then go out the back door and talk to Grandpa
Goomba(Goompa).  Go back out to the front area now, go talk to the dad Goomba
and watch the scene.  Now go back to where Goompa was, and you will fall down
after noticing the verdana is not there anymore.  Go talk to Goompa.  Now go left
one screen.  Check the bushes to find the hammer(it is in the one on the far
left side in the middle).  Now go around breaking blocks and hitting trees to get
stuff.  The block at the top of the screen on the ground has coins, and don't
miss the doll in the upper right tree(it is Goombaria's).  Go back to the screen
you came from and you will have to fight Jr. Troopa.  He is pretty easy, just keep
attacking.  Now you can proceed to the screen you came from.  Don't forget to
whack the block and the tree, then hit the big block with the hammer and go right.
Get the heart in the block, use the spring trampoline to get the fire flower, then
go to the next screen to the right.  You will have to fight enemies now, just
remember to jump on them or hit them with the hammer before the battle begins
to get the first attack.  Get the Star Piece on the ledge up top, then proceed
one screen to the right and you will be back outside the Goomba's home.  Give
the doll to Gombaria to get anotherr Star Piece(and a kiss).  Now you will get
the Power Jump Badge from Goompa, and Goombario will join your party.  Go rest
up in Toad's house, then go break the block blocking the gate, go one screen
to the right.  Examine the signs to get whatever picture is on it(a goomba will
pop out if there is a goomba picture, etc.).  Go another screen to the right.
Get the Close Call Badge in the red floating block.  Get the heart in the block
then go another screen to the right.  Now you will have to fight the Goomba
Bros.  No need to worry, they are pretty easy.  Use a Power Jump on each of them
then just use normal attacks.  Go back left a screen and get the heart in the
block again, go right, then save your game at the bottom of the screen.  Now
use the spring trampoline to get up the cliff and go right one screen.  Go
right another screen and you are at King Goomba's Castle.  When fighting King
Goomba and the Goomba Bros, start off by hitting the tree, this will kill both
Goomba Bros and deal 3 damage to King Goomba.  After beating them, check the
bright green bush at the bottom of the screen, then hit the Pow Button that
appears.  Before going through the castle and across the bridge, make sure to
hit the tree and get another Star Piece.  Now, cross the bridge and its onto
the next screen.  Whack the tree that is in front of the covered walkway and jump
on the spring trampoline up to the roof.  Open the treasure chest here to find the
Hammer Throw Badge.  Jump down from the covered walkway and go through it, onto
the next screen and you are in Toad Town.  There isnt much to do here, just talk
to everybody, stop by the item shop and pick up items if you want, or you can
use the pipe to go and pay Luigi a visit.  When you are done, go one screen to the
right.  Talk to more people, stop by the post office to pick up a letter to
Goombario, make sure to whack the tree next to the spinning building to get
another Star Piece, then go up.  Go talk to the guy, then go a screen to the right.
In this screen, do not go up the step/cliffs, instead stay toward the bottom of
the screen and go right one screen.  Enter the house here and you can either
have your fortune told, or you can go upstairs and trade some of those Star
Pieces for badges.  When you are done here, exit the house and go back left
one screen.  Now climb the step/cliffs and go right one screen.  Here, go to
the top of the screen and around the mountain to find another Star Piece.  Now
head on up the mountain and don't stop until you reach the top, talk to the Star
there.  Enjoy the sequence.  Once you gain control of Mario again, proceed back
to Toad Town, and you will be stopped by Twink after you cross the bridge on
your way.  Go through your action command training with Twink and Goombario,
then you will have to fight Magikoopa.  Magikoopa is easy, just use a couple
of Power Jumps and use the action command right, and he will be a goner.  Now
you can really return to Toad Town.  Go visit Merlon in the house with the
spinning top(you will need to try and open the door twice).  Once you are done
there, go over to the east exit and talk to the Toads there.  Now return to
Merlon and talk to him(don't pay him for a fortune telling, walk over to him
and talk to him actually).  Follow Merlon over to the Toads and you will have
the path cleared.



Chapter 1

Before moving on to the next area, take some time to do a few other things.  Go
all the way back to the goomba home, leveling up as much as possible as you go,
and talk to the caterpillar you find there.  He will give you a quiz question, and
when you answer it correctly he will give you a Star Piece.  Now return to Toad
Town, levelling up as you go, and stop by the Dojo, the entrance should now be
unblocked.  Talk to the Master to get fight the first opponent(an easy one), Chan.
Just use your jump attacks on him and he won't even get a hit off on you.  Talk to the
Master again to fight your second opponent, Lee.  He isn't very tough, just keep
pummelling him and you will win eventually.  Now, if you feel up to it, talk to the
Master again and he will fight you.  This guy is one tough cookie, and I suggest
being at least level 4 before fighting him.  When you are done with this, you can
leave Toad Town to the east.  Make sure to get the Dizzy Attack Badge, then continue
to the east another screen.  Whack the tree here to make a switch fall down, jump
on the switch to get a bridge to come up.  Continue east another screen.  Go down
and around the high ground, and you will find yourself in Koopa Village.  Help the
Koopas get their shells back and hit all the fuzzies with your hammer(twice) to
dispatch them.  A fuzzy has one shell, one shell is on top of a block, and a third
shell is in the tree.  Go a screen to the east and it is more fuzzies and shells.
Don't bother with shells and fuzzies here, just go into the middle house, the
one that is shacking, and then pursue the fuzzy with the blue shell.  Continue
following this guy east until he goes up into the trees.  You will have to figure
out which tree he is 3 times before he will give you the shell.  Once you have
the shell, Kooper should come along and join your party.  You can switch party
members by pressing right c.  Now you will have to fight four fuzzies, which is
no problem if you have Kooper in your party, just have him use his Power Shell
ability a few times.  Now, go back west one screen and get the HP Plus Badge
which is on top of the tree trunk which is too high too jump.  Just climb up
the trunks near it and use Kooper's ability to get it for you.  Now go back to
the village, and get the Star Piece which is up on the high block.  Simply move
the blue block beneath it to reach it.  Now go and talk to Chuck Quizmo(the
caterpillar) for another quiz, and another Star Piece.  Now head west two
screens and destroy the blocks at the top of the screen right where you enter.
You should get the Attack FX B Badge here.  Now climb up to the high ground and
go one screen west.  Go to about midscreen and go down on the path along the
water.  When you get to the end of the path and can see the Star Piece, use
Kooper's ability to get it.  Now go all the way back to Koopa Village, and go
to the house at the far end, to the right of Kooper's house.  Talk to the elder
here.  Now head over to the house to the left of Kooper's house and talk to the
lady koopa there until you get the book Koopa Legends from her.  Now head back
to the elder's house and give him the book.  Talk to him again to get another
errand.  Now you have to leave Koopa Village, go up to the high ground, go west
one screen, and behind one of the fences here you will find a Sleepy Sheep.
go and give this to the elder, in return he will give you a silver coin.  Now
it is time to get to wokr and head off to the Koopa Bros Fort.  Leave the town
and go up to the high ground, go east this time.  If you want the thunderbolt,
use Kooper's special ability to destroy the block.  Now go over to the water
and use Kooper's ability again to hit the switch to make a bridge, continue west
a screen.  Whack the tree here to get another Star Piece, continue to the
west and onto the next screen.  Enter the fort and defeat the enemies there
to get the Fortress Key.  Use the key to open the door.  Go straight through
this room and through the next door.  Go straight through this room and through
the door at the end.  Defeat the enemies here and a switch will fall, jump on
the switch and go down the stairs.  Go left, and defeat all the enemies here,
continue left.  Simply go around all the fire things here and get the key at
the end.  Now go back right two screens, up the stairs, and through the door
on your right, using the key to unlock it.  Go up the pathway and hit the block
at the top.  Talk to Bombette until she joins your party, blow up the wall
and leave the cell.  Leave the room and go up the stairs.  Go left and blow
up walls to get items here.  You should get a Fortress Key and a Power Bounce
Badge, then go back right two rooms.  Go up the pathway and open the door at
the top.  Unlock the door on the left side of the room and go through it.
Now you will need to put Kooper in your party, and scoot up near the ledge.
Use his ability to hit the switch, then go across two concrete slabs, then
use his ability to hit the switch again.  Go to the next ledge and do the
same thing again.  Finally, you should get to the door on the far side, go
through it.  Jump on the switch in this screen, then go down the stairs.
Use Bombette to blow open the wall, then go through the hole.  Get the key,
then go back up to the room where you hit the switch.  Unlock the door here
and proceed through it.  Go hit the switch here, then go up the stairs that
appear.  At the top of the stairs, follow the path upward, and keep going up
past the door and get the Smash Charge Badge.  Now go back down a little
bit and through the door you passed.  Walk as far as you can and a little
scene will happen.  When they launch their cannons at you, go about midscreen
until you can go down, out of harms way.  Use Bombette to blow up the rock
and get the maple syrup in the block.  Now go back up, and try to dodge as
many of the Bullet Bills as you can, but it is not big deal if you get caught,
they are easy enemies.  Just before the cannons, go down and heal yourself
and save your game.  Now go back up and jump on the cannons to get the first
strike in.  The Blaster Bills can be a pain in the butt, but if you use
Bombette's bomb attack on them, it will kill one of them instantly.  After
beating them, go back down, replentish yourself, and save your game.  When
you are ready, go back up and through the big doors.  You will first have
to fight a dummy of Bowser, it has a tough defense, but it doesn't do much
damage, he is overall an easy foe.  Once the dummy Bowser is gone, you will
have to fight the Koopa Bros.  These guys are no big problem, just use the
hammer on them to get them weak, then knock them over with another attack.
When they are separate, they are pretty much just a normal koopa.  I recommend
knocking them over and using Power Bounce on them, this should kill them
if you are good with the action command.  Once the battle is over, go up and
touch the card.  End Chapter 1
