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

World 2-4

Grab the POW Block at Point 1 and wait for another gust of wind to blow coins near you. As soon as the coins are overhead, drop the POW Block to force the coins to drop onto the ground.

Tip

It is extremely difficult to navigate the level while a gust of wind is blowing. Instead of trying to fight the wind, stand near a small block so that you're not blown away and wait for the wind to subside.

Squatting also prevents Mario from being blown away while on the ground. It might take a bit longer to wait around for the wind to stop blowing, but by doing so you will save yourself a lot of grief.

Go down the red pipe at Point 2 to find a secret, underground cavern with several tilting girders and coins.

Use the girders to reach all the coins, then take the pipe on the right to exit the cavern.

Star Coin

Climb the ladder at Point 3, then hit the Invisible Block on the platform’s top right. A vine will grow, leading up to a secret area in the sky!

Begin by hitting the two ? Blocks on the right, then keep jumping to reveal a row of Invisible Blocks. Climb up the vine on the left, make a right onto the row of blocks you just revealed, then continue jumping up to reveal another row of Invisible Blocks.

Get them all to collect a lot of coins. Finally, climb one of the two new vines to reach the Star Coin and exit through the pipe on the right.

Either get a running start and then jump, or Spin-Jump up to the ladder at Point 4 to grab the Propellerhead power-up on the ledge above the ground.

There’s a 1-Up Mushroom hidden inside the Block at Point 5. Grab it before you make a right and pass through the Bowser flag.

Star Coin

Go down the pipe at Point 6 to enter a cavern with the second Star Coin. To grab it you must have the Propellerhead power-up.

Jump down to grab it, then zoom up to the ledge on the right before you die.

Star Coin

To grab the final Star Coin jump off the small ledge at Point 7 while you have the Propellerhead power-up and let the wind carry you to the right.

Just as you’re about to drop to your death, shake the Wii Remote and zip up toward the Star Coin to grab it! You’ll emerge through the ledge overhead and land safely on solid ground.

There’s an alternate exit that is tricky to get to. You must have the Propellerhead power-up to reach it. Set up to the right of Point 7, under two blocks. When the wind begins to blow, Dash and make three jumps, hopping from one platform to another.

Right after the third jump shake the Wii Remote to start the Propellerhead and fly up and over the stone structure in the sky. Once there, hop up into the red pipe and you’ll find the alternate exit!
