Complete Mario Kart DS Mission 3-1 by destroying all 5 item boxes in the Waluigi Pinball area. Learn the best strategy to avoid bumpers and grab Stars.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    Navigate the Waluigi Pinball area, being mindful of the numerous round bumpers that will affect your movement.
  2. 2
    Locate the 5 item boxes that are constantly moving around the track.
  3. 3
    Carefully maneuver your kart to collect all 5 item boxes. Each box contains a Star.
Tips
  • Be patient and avoid speeding excessively.
  • Watch your minimap (the small map displayed on the HUD (heads-up display — the on-screen icons showing health, ammo and the minimap)) to anticipate item box locations.
  • Move precisely to intercept item boxes when they are close.
  • This strategy will help you avoid getting knocked into bumpers as much and may result in a high rank.
