Both doors at Point 1 lead to a room with a large shifting panel that Mario can climb on. Hop onto it and grab on!
Once you’re on the panel, tilt the Wii Remote left to make the panel swing toward the P Switch. The switch reveals several blue coins. To grab them all, move up and down on the panel while tilting the Wii Remote left and right.
There’s a hidden door along the left wall at Point 2.
Go through the door to find a Roulette Block. Take your power-up, then go back through the door to continue climbing up the tower.
When you reach Point 3, magical projectiles begin to rain down on you from above. Move up the shifting panels quickly to avoid getting hit!
Wait for the magic projectile to pass you by before leaping onto the long panel that rises above the deadly spikes.
Use the POW Block here to force several coins to drop from the area above you. If you drop it while you are near the Dry Bones, they’ll fall apart!
Boss Battle
Roy Koopa has a very nasty Ground-Pound attack, just like Mario. Unlike Mario’s, however, Roy’s Ground-Pound can stun you if you’re standing on the ground when he hits the floor. As soon as he’s about to land back on the ground, leap into the air to keep from getting stunned.
If he stuns you, he follows up with a wave of his deadly wand and hits you with a magic projectile! Bounce on his head as soon as he lands, then stand at the center of the platform and leap over his shell attack.
When he emerges from his shell, wait for him to Ground-Pound again, then pounce on his head! Do this three times, and he’ll go down.
