Change Yoshi Coins to Princess Coins

The Yoshi Coins can ALL be changed to Princess Coins by collecting ALL five Yoshi Coins from each level. After you have collected them ALL, watch the in-game movie to see the coins change.


Extra Lives

This is a great little trick to get you as many lives in the game as you want. All you have to do is complete the 1st level on the right and then re-enter it and keep running until you find a shell. When you find one throw it onto the hill above it and run after it and it will kill a lot of Koopa which will give you an extra life. When you press 'Start' you will be given the option to go back into the 1st level and repeat the process.


Mario Brothers - Earn Point Stars

At the game selection screen where you pick between Super Mario World and Mario Brothers a Star will appear above Mario Brothers for each 150,000 points you get in the game. You can get a maximum of 5.


Hear the Original Mario Bros. Music.

Go to the special levels where Tubular, Groovy, etc. Can be found. Then still on the world map, remain idle for a few minutres and you will hear the music change.


High Score Records

After you have completed the Special World, you will be able to save your high scores in the Special World levels.


Unlock Different Colored Yoshis

Meet the following conditions to unlock the corresponding coloured Yoshi.

Red Yoshi:

Go to Star World 1 or Star World 4, find the Baby Yoshi, and feed him 5 enemies.

Blue Yoshi:

Go to Star World 2, find the Baby Yoshi, and feed him 5 enemies.

Yellow Yoshi:

Go to Star World 3 or Star World 5, find the Baby Yoshi, and feed him 5 enemies.


Red levels and yellow levels.

Did you know that there is a difference in the levels. If the level is red colored that means there is a secret ending to it(Example: Key hole, another goal, etc...). If the level is yellow colered that means there is no secret in that level. Hope this helped.


How to fly First get a red Yoshi on the Star ..

How to fly



First get a red Yoshi on the Star World #4. Then go to level 37 and eat a blue Koopa turtle. Then jump and keep tapping the A button.



How to get infinty lives



First go to the first level to the right of Yoshi's house and hit every block and then hit back and keep doing it. Another way is to go into the first small tube and hit the third flying block and u will get a 1-up and go out the tube and keep doing it.




Have fun cheating!


Valley of Bowser 4 Secret Exit

To find the secret exit in this level you will need Yoshi`s help. Near the end of the level, you will see a key which appears to be inaccessible. The only way to reach the key is to use Yoshi`s tongue. Once you have the key safely tucked away in Yoshi`s mouth, carry it to the right and you will be on your way to the secret exit.


Valley of Bowser 4 Secret Exit

To find the secret exit in this level you will need Yoshi`s help. Near the end of the level, you will see a key which appears to be inaccessible. The only way to reach the key is to use Yoshi`s tongue. Once you have the key safely tucked away in Yoshi`s mouth, carry it to the right and you will be on your way to the secret exit.


Infinite Lifes

Okay, First off, don't try the 1 up hanging from the fishing pole in the forest place, unless you have ALOT of time on your hands.

Okay, what you need to do first is make sure you don't have power ups, mushrooms, or anything. Make sure your just a little Mario/Luigi.

Next, go to World 2 Donut secret 1.

After starting the level, just keep swimming forward until you see a blue tunnel, this tunnel is at the top of the screen, in a little hole in the roof kinda, go in that tunnel.

When you go into the tunnel, you should be on flat ground. Hit the "?" block, and get the ballon thing, then float up in the air and hit that koopa on the head, causing him to fall. Now wait until you de-ballon or whatever, then jump on the koopa's head, grab his s..


LotsO

If you want lots of lives, first get a cape, then go to Yoshi's Island 3 (I think it's that level.It's the first level that has the rotating platforms on it).

Just past the checkpoint there are some floating yellow blocks. There is a koopa walking around on them. This is what you need the cape for.

First, jump up on the blocks(with the cape) and,when the koopa's at the edge of the blocks(the edge on the right near the wall)use the twirl(B)attack, and keep nailing the B button, and, if you keep doing it correctly, you should start getting lives.

Just don't let the koopa fall to the ground.

Keep doing this all you want.


How to beat ALL of the star levels

Okay

First you need to get to the Doonut secret house

While in there you will get to a second room

There will be a blue push block

When you hit in go infront of the brown door and hit the block above it

Climb up the vine and go to the right. Do all of this before the music runs out.

If you do, there will be a blue door. When you go in, you will be in a boss battle with a big Boo ghost. Hit it three times with the black blocks, by kicking them up.

When you do beat it, you will unlock the first star level.

STAR LEVEL 1:

On star level one get the power up (if you need it) then jump down

Go all the way to the right. Then go 2 to blocks to the left.

Then spin jump and don't move until you stop.

You shoul..


Hint: Classic Mario Bros.

Here are a few tips:

At Phase 4 is a bonus game.

At Phase 9 is a bonus game.

At 20000 you get an extra life.

Any other Mario Bros. Classic you can use this.

yoshimario


Life saver

When you're falling, all you have to do is pause and hit save and quit. But, if you have the half way mark, it will erase that.


Easy way to earn hundreds of lives fast

This isnt really a cheat, but... It gets you 500 lives in like 15 mins - I think it owns ^.^

: Now then to the cheat> start your game and go to the forest of illusion 1( works best with mario) go all the way through the level until you reach tha half way mark. Hit the bar and go to the random box that changes from mushroom, to fire flower, to feather, to star ( it's like a few steps away from the half way you can't miss it) there will be a red koopa you can kill him if you want..doesnt matter - wait for the box to change to feather-( need good timing) hit it and ina second it shud be a star and jump and grab the star and start booking it to the right

when you see those yellow blocks burst and enemies fall wait for them to fall and start hitting them( there ..


Head

If you turn on the unlimited 1up code with always cape power and always fire power cheats, you will see that Mario (or Luiges) will be on the top of the screen.


Unlimited lives

Okay

First beat The forest of illusion 1

Then go in again and get the check point.

When you get it go to the random block and get the super star.

Run across untill the star runs out... Make sure yuo hit everything.

You should get up to 18 lives.

Then go back and do it again!

Hope it helps!


16 lives

There is a way of getting 16 lives:

Go to Forest of ILLusion 1 and get a invincible star. Run and hit everything ahead until you reach the Flying Hammer Guy. If done correctly, you will collect 16 Lives.

For 17 lives, hit the Flying Hammer Guy. This can be Done.


Little tips you SHOULD already know

The 1st tip is:

.in the world where it's all bush and trees, do the the first course thing to unlock a secret ghost house, go on the wood section, hit the block and hold on to the balloon. Then head left under the wood and keep going left until you reach the platform, hover under the next box till the balloon pops. Now hit that block and get the key and put it in the key hole. Then exit that course and go in the new haunted boo house you just unlocked and heres how you finish it:

.at the start, avoid all the ghost till you get to the next section. Collect the coins and hit the blocks as you would on any course. Then collect the coins at the far end on top of the doors. Now hit the thingy and go into the door while it's still unlocked. Now if that lead to the top o..


Best Cheat Ever

Get a cape and go to the first haunted house in the game. At the first hole in the ground, turn back and face the begining of the level. Run and when your about half a second from the wall jump and you will ride up the wall, you'll have to turn and land on the ceiling thing. It takes practice. Run till you fall and hit the floor, and hit the four blocks and get four lives. Then go into the door and finish the level. A road will go up. Play that level. There will be five ? Blocks. The middle is a yoshi egg, the left two are flowers, and the right two are feathers. You can play this level over and over again to get lives, different color yoshis, and power ups. It's a great help.


Another 99 lives Cheat!!!!!!!!!!!

On World 1-1, in the cave, at the end are a row of 5 purple jumpers(they do the worm). There are 3 plants before them. The last plant is a huge one. If you hit all 5 with the plant you will get a life and a heart will pop out. If you exit out the door behind the purple jumpers you hit and go back in the cave and they will still be there even though you hit them!! Jump on them or over them to get the big plant so you can hit them all again so you can get another life!!!!! If you get hurt just get the heart that pops out of them. Keep on repeating to get maximum lives!!!!!

( P.S.-If you did not now this,you don't have to save by losing all your lives. Just hit start and SAVE)


Easy way to get to Soda Lake

I have found a much easier way to get to the secret exit in Cheese Bridge Area that leads to Soda Lake. All that you need is Cape Mario and a Yoshi. Now, jump off the last platform before the goal post. Be sure that you hold down A in the process, so you fall slower. Now, once you've gone under the goal post, spin jump off of Yoshi's back. You will then get a 3-up and another goal post that takes you to Soda Lake.


Unlimited 1-ups

First of all it is not the level with the flying lakitu with a 1-up attached to it this is different. Go to the forest of illusion 1. Once you have reached the checkpoint, wait for the power up in the box to be a star. When it pops out grab it and touch every enemy you see. Once you have reached the goal you should get about 15-17 1-ups(if done correctly). Press start* and hit back* and repeat this as many times as you want.

*Note: You must have at least beaten this level once.


Lakitu's Revolt

To start off the cheat description,thisis probably the best life cheat ever.Go to the Forest of Illusion 3.Enter the level.Mario or Luigi should be standing there when Lakitu comes with his 1-Up to give to you.Take the life,and leave the stage!Now,when you leave the stage,you should still have that life.Repeat this process until you get to however many lifes you want!Happy Gaining!; )


Glich

In chocolate island 3 when you the red koopa walking on the plateform that is below you if you make it off screen when get on the same plateform it isn`t there.


EPIC Yoshi Cheat

If you go in to Top Secret Area above Donut Ghost House and get a you you can make him walk backwards for a moment

So get the yoshi and quickly press B and walk the opposite way it walks backwards. If you blink youll miss most of it.


The Top Secret Island

There can be a Top Secret Island, just go to the Donut Plains Ghost House, not the Secret Ghost House. You must have a Super Cape for this. At the beggining you will start at a platform. Go all the way of the end of the platform and run back to the beggining and fly, you will end up at a top platform and you must run all the way to the other side of that platform. There will be 4 Blocks with lives in them. Get them and Finish the Goal. In the Top Secret Island, there is 2 Capes, 2 Flower, and a Yoshi.


Glitch: Go through ground

Go to a level where only small mario can fit through an area with yoshi. Push yoshi in the small gap. Then jump back on him. If done correctly, you will go through the ground.


Very quick quick quick way to get at least 100 lives useing this

You need to unlock forest of illusion one once you have it do this.

First of all go to forest of illusion one.Next get to your first check point where there is a box which gives you power up.

Then get the shell guy out of the way this is the part where you have to time it right when it shows the feather hit it real fast!

Grab the star and quickly hit all the bad guys and jump on the wood plat form and hit all the bad guys.

When you get to the plat form you will get lives I will explain how much lives the bad guys are.

Shell men are one up & the long worm like things are two up also if you get to the flying guy he should be three up.
