New Super Mario Bros Wii Guide › Walkthrough › World 4-Water World

World 4-2

Nearly the entire walkway on World 4-2 is a collapsible yellow platform. If you stand in one place for too long, the section under Mario’s feet will give way and send the plump plumber into the drink!

Stay on the move to avoid falling into the water and getting hit by a flying Cheep Cheep.

If you want to get the P Switch at Point 2, you’ll have to intentionally dive into the water and risk getting hit by Cheep Cheeps.

Stand on the platform long enough for it to give way underneath you, then hit the Brick at Point 2 to reveal the P Switch. Jump out of the water to activate the P Switch, then quickly collect all of the blue coins that appear.

Star Coin

The first Star Coin is hovering above a floating barrel. Jump onto the barrel, then jump up to nab the Star Coin before the barrel spins and sends you into the water.

Tip

Maintain your top speed and carefully hop from barrel to barrel to avoid slipping into the water.

Star Coin

Grab the Star from the ? Block at Point 5 and then dash across the next section of unstable walkway.

When you reach the next Star Coin, hop onto the ledge and drop down so that you’re hanging from it. Shimmy to the right and grab the Star Coin as you go.

The long, thin ledges that appear beginning at Point 6 are just as unstable as the other yellow walkways. Hop across them to avoid putting too much weight on them and falling into the Cheep Cheeps’ domain.

Star Coin

To pocket the third Star Coin, stand on the yellow ledge to the right of the Star Coin until it drops you onto the rock ledge below it. Hang from the rocky ledge, then shimmy to the right onto the next yellow ledge. Hoist yourself onto it, then jump up to grab the Star Coin.
