Tips
- Collect all Star Coins as you play through each level to save time later.
- Consider using Luigi once unlocked, as his higher jump can be advantageous, though he slides more. You will need to complete courses with both characters eventually.
- Decide early if you want to unlock and play the final level, which requires completing all courses with both characters and getting golden flags in each. If so, prioritize golden flags on your first playthrough.
- If you miss a Golden Flag, don't replay immediately. You can attempt it again when replaying the course with the other character.
- The walkthrough assumes you are playing as Mario and are not Small Mario/Luigi when hitting ? Blocks, as this affects the power-up received (Super Mushroom if small).
