Baby Penguin Tricks:
The baby penguin that you find on the top of Stage 4 can do tricks. One of the strangest
thinks you cand do is perform a dive while he is around you. Once you do this, he will mimic you and slide on the ground
as well. If you're good enough, you can make him slide with you down the ice slope,
but it's very hard to do.
Mother Penguin:
Here's a quick shortcut to get right to the mother penguin. Once you
grab the penguin, jump off the ledge containing the starting point of
the ice slide. The snow will break your fall on the ground, so don't
worry about damage. Just pickup the baby and proceed straight to the mother, who
shouldn't be too far away from where you will land.
Red Slide Trick:
Enter Door #1 on the upper level of the castle, then jump into the right
window with the Princess on it. You will enter the Red Slide Level.
Slide down throught the tunnel. When you come to the yellow barrier,
hump and dive over it on the left side. You should land on the lower
part of the slide and continue on sliding to the end. This will save
you time in trying for the Secret Star!
No Obstacles:
There is a gradfather clock right before you enter Course 14. Wait
until the hands are at 1:00 and enter the level. If the trick was done
correctly, all the obstacles throughout the couse will be turned off.
This makes things a little easier for you to maneuver around without
thinking about what will disable.
Turtle Sheel Tactics:
There are some facts about turtle shells that few know about. While in
the Lava Stage, you can get several 1-Ups by traveling on the lava.
Remember, though, it is only obtainable on Stars 1-5. It can travel
on the quicksand on the Desert Stage, or water sufaces. Bu rapidly
humping on steep sufaces, you can climb almost anything using the
turtle shell, making it totally possible to go anywhere on any stage.
