New Super Mario Bros Wii Guide › Walkthrough › World 2-Desert World

World 2-3

Go down the pipe at Point 1 to find a secret room with a Roulette Block!

Tip

This underground level can be very hard to navigate since it's almost entirely pitch black! Since fireballs can provide some light, either use a Fire Flower power-up or let the Venus Fire Traps spit fireballs that will light your way!

Climb atop the yellow pyramid at Point 2, then jump left to reach a broken walkway that leads to a yellow pipe.

Go through the pipe to find a room with a P Switch and several Spike Tops.

Hop onto the lower row of bricks and follow the Spike Tops left. Jump up to the second level of the bricks, then follow the Spike Tops right to the P Switch. Hit the switch to knock them all out and score a few 1-Ups!

Sneak past the Fire Snakes to Point 3 and hit the ? Block along the right wall. Grab the Star! While under the Star’s effects, you’ll generate enough light to illuminate the entire cavern! Climb the pyramid and then dash right to the next section.

Star Coin

Grab the Star Coin at the base of the pyramid, then hit the ? Block on the left to grab another Star.

Note

This block will only yield another star if you hit it while under the effects of first star. Otherwise it will just give you a coin.

Ride the platforms right, and jump over the fireballs as they approach you.

Star Coin

When you reach Point 6, drop down below the walkway then turn left. Follow the walkway back to the left edge of the wall and grab the next Star Coin. Be careful while grabbing it though, a Fire Bro will try to fry you with fireballs from the far right.

Star Coin

Wall-Jump off the wall to the left of the Piranha Plants at Point 7, then dash left across the top of the level to a secret area containing the final Star Coin.

Take the pipe on the right and exit the level.

Note

Aside from taking the pipe in the secret area, there's another pipe that leads to the goal pole. Before taking the pathway above the level, simply follow the level down the hill to its end and enter the final pipe.
