Power Stars are collectible items that are required to progress and beat the game (without using glitches to bypass the requirements), as well as to open star doors. The star counter keeps track of how many stars you have collected, and there are 120 in total.

Position
Most stars spawn with coordinates that are divisible by 100, although 100 Coin Stars can spawn anywhere. Some stars are always loaded, while some (such as Red Coin Stars and Secret Stars) load during the level at a Star Spawner.
Yaw Velocity (Angular Speed)
Power Stars spawned from a ! Block have a yaw velocity of 1024 angle units per frame (168.75 deg/s). All other Power Stars have a yaw velocity of 2048 angle units per frame (337.5 deg/s). Why these values are different is unknown. All Power Stars spin counterclockwise when viewed from above, similarly to a globe.
Storage in memory

This article is a stub. As such, it is not complete. You can help Ukikipedia by expanding it.

Power Stars are stored such that it is impossible to collect more than 120 stars by collecting two of the same star, even if both are yellow.
