Synchro ground-pound

If two or more players time their jumps just right, it’s possible to do a synchro ground-pound. That means up to four players* can try to slam their bottoms on the ground at the same time. This powerful move will destroy all grounded enemies on the screen. POW!

  

Baby Yoshi to the rescue

If you find a Baby Yoshi on the World Map, it will follow you into the next course you select (except for towers and castles). Baby Yoshis have special skills to help reach tough places, light up passages, and more.

  

Collecting Star Coins

Each course contains three Star Coins. You can try to collect them as you make your way to the Goal Pole at the end of the course. If you collect all three Star Coins, something good might happen!

 

Secret exits

Some courses have a secret exit, which is indicated by a red Goal Pole flag instead of a black one. If you clear a course by going through its secret exit, you’ll unlock a secret path!

 

Helpful characters

There are two characters who are great for younger and less-experienced players. Nabbit is a sticky-fingered thief who can sneak past the bad guys to snag items. With the help of a Super Crown, Toadette magically transforms into Peachette! Peachette can double-jump, float slowly during freefall, and get a boost back up if she falls into a pit.
