Watch out! If [you] wander around here, [you]'re liable to be plastered by a water bomb! Those enemy Bob-ombs love to fight, and [the]y're always finding ways to attack. This meadow has become a battlefield ever since [the] Big Bob-omb got his paws on [the] Power Star. Can [you] recover [the] Star for us? Cross [the] bridge and go left up [the] path to find [the] Big Bob-omb. Please come back to see me after [you]'ve retrieved [the] Power Star! |
The pink Bob-Omb just to the right of the starting point in BoB, during the first mission. |

Hey, [you]! It's dangerous ahead, so listen up! Take my advice. Cross [the] two bridges ahead, [the]n watch for falling water bombs.

Thank [you], Mario! The Big Bob-omb is nothing but a big dud now! But [the] battle for [the] castle has just begun. O[the]r enemies are holding [the] o[the]r Power Stars. If [you] recover more Stars, [you] can open new doors that lead to new worlds! My Bob-omb Buddies are waiting for [you]. Be sure to talk to [the]m--[the]y'll set up cannons for [you]. |
The pink Bob-Omb just to the right of the starting point in BoB, on any mission except the first. |
004 |
We're peace-loving Bob-ombs, so we don't use cannons. But if [you]'d like to blast off, we don't mind. Help [you]rself. We'll prepare all of [the] cannons in this course for [you] to use. Bon Voyage! |
The pink Bob-Omb next to the cannon at the starting area in Bob, on any mission except the first. |

Hey, Mario! Is it true that [you] beat [the] Big Bob-omb? Cool! You must be strong. And pretty fast. So, how fast are [you], anyway? Fast enough to beat me... Koopa [the] Quick? I don't think so. Just try me. How about a race to [the] mountaintop, where [the] Big Bob-omb was? Whaddya say? When I say ”Go,“ let [the] race begin! Ready.... //Go!////Don't Go |

009 |
Long time, no see! Wow, have [you] gotten fast! Have [you] been training on [the] sly, or is it [the] power of [the] Stars? I've been feeling down about losing [the] last race. This is my home course--how about a rematch? The goal is in Windswept Valley. Ready? //Go//// Don't Go |

|
093 |
Mario! You again! Well that's just fine--I've been looking for something to fry with my fire breath! Your Star Power is useless against me! Your friends are all trapped within [the] walls... And [you]'ll never see [the] Princess again! Bwa ha ha ha! |

|
102 |
Pssst! The Boos are super shy. If [you] look [the]m in [the] eyes, [the]y fade away, but if [you] turn [you]r back, [the]y reappear. It's no use trying to hit [the]m when [the]y're fading away. Instead, sneak up behind [the]m and punch. |

No! Crushed again! I'm just a stepping stone, after all. I won't gravel, er, grovel. Here, [you] win. Take this with [you]! |
After defeating the Whomp King in WF. |
116 |
Whaaa....Whaaat? Can it be that a pipsqueak like [you] has defused [the] Bob-omb king???? You might be fast enough to ground me, but [you]'ll have to pick up [the] pace if [you] want to take King Bowser by [the] tail. Methinks my troops could learn a lesson from [you]! Here is [you]r Star, as I promised, Mario. If [you] want to see me again, select this Star from [the] menu. For now, farewell. |
Said by King Bob-Omb after being defeated. |

After defeating Eyerok in SSL. |
119 |
Grrr! I was a bit careless. This is not as I had planned...but I still hold [the] power of [the] Stars, and I still have Peach. Bwa ha ha! You'll get no more Stars from me! I'm not finished with [you] yet, but I'll let [you] go for now. You'll pay for this... later! |
After defeating Bowser in BitDW. |
120 |
Ooowaah! Can it be that I've lost??? The power of [the] Stars has failed me... this time. Consider this a draw. Next time, I'll be in perfect condition. Now, if [you] want to see [you]r precious Princess, come to [the] top of [the] tower. I'll be waiting! Gwa ha ha ha! |
|
121 |
Nooo! It can't be! You've really beaten me, Mario?!! I gave those troops power, but now it's fading away! Arrgghh! I can see peace returning to [the] world! I can't stand it! Hmmm... It's not over yet... C'mon troops! Let's watch [the] ending toge[the]r! Bwa ha ha! |

Am I glad to see [you]! The Princess...and I...and, well, everybody...we're all trapped inside [the] castle walls. Bowser has stolen [the] castle's Stars, and he's using [the]ir power to create his own world in [the] paintings and walls. Please recover [the] Power Stars! As [you] find [the]m, [you] can use [the]ir power to open [the] doors that Bowser has sealed. There are four rooms on [the] first floor. Start in [the] one with [the] painting of Bob-omb inside. It's [the] only room that Bowser hasn't sealed. When [you] collect eight Power Stars, [you]'ll be able to open [the] door with [the] big star. The Princess must be inside! |

134 |
The names of [the] Stars are also hints for finding [the]m. They are displayed at [the] beginning of each course. You can collect [the] Stars in any order.

It was Bowser who stole [the] Stars. I saw him with my own eyes!

136 |
Wow! You've already recovered that many Stars? Way to go, Mario! I'll bet [you]'ll have us out of here in no time! Be careful, though. Bowser and his band wrote [the] book on ”bad.“ Take my advice: When [you] need to recover from injuries, collect coins. Yellow Coins refill one piece of [the] Power Meter, Red Coins refill two pieces, and Blue Coins refill five. To make Blue Coins appear, pound on Blue Coin Blocks. Also, if [you] fall from high places, [you]'ll minimize damage if [you] Pound [the] Ground as [you] land. |
The toad in the maze-like room with the paintings to LLL and SSH in the basement of the castle. |
137 |
Thanks, Mario! The castle is recovering its energy as [you] retrieve Power Stars, and [you]'ve chased Bowser right out of here, on to some area ahead. Oh, by [the] by, are [you] collecting coins? Special Stars appear when [you] collect 100 coins in each of [the] 15 courses! |

You've recovered 30 Power Stars! Now [you] can open [the] door with [the] big Star! But before [you] move on, how's it going o[the]rwise? Did [you] pound [the] two columns down? You didn't lose [you]r hat, did [you]? If [you] did, [you]'ll have to stomp on [the] condor to get it back! They say that Bowser has sneaked out of [the] sea and into [the] underground. Have [you] finally cornered him? |
After collecting a total of 30 stars. |
145 |
You've recovered 50 Power Stars! Now [you] can open [the] Star Door on [the] third floor. Bowser's [the]re, [you] know. Oh! You've found all of [the] Cap Switches, haven't [you]? Red, green and blue?

After collecting a total of 50 stars. |

I can't take this anymore! First [you] get me all wet, [the]n [you] stomp on me! Now I'm really, really, REALLY mad! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!! |
|
152 |
Owwch! Uncle! Uncle! Okay, I give. Take this Star! Whew! I feel better now. I don't really need it anymore, anyway-- I can see [the] stars through my ceiling at night. They make me feel... ...peaceful. Please, come back and visit anytime. |

Hey! Who's [the]re? What's climbing on me? Is it an ice ant? A snow flea? Whatever it is, it's bugging me! I think I'll blow it away! |

154 |
Hold on to [you]r hat! If [you] lose it, [you]'ll be easily injured. If [you] lose it, look for it in [the] course where [you] lost it. Speaking of lost, [the] Princess is still stuck in [the] walls somewhere. Please help, Mario! Oh, [you] know that [the]re are secret worlds in [the] walls as well as in [the] paintings, right? |

Mario!!! It that really [you]??? It has been so long since our last adventure! They told me that I might see [you] if I waited here, but I'd just about given up hope! Is it true? Have [you] really beaten Bowser? And restored [the] Stars to [the] castle? And saved [the] Princess? I knew [you] could do it! Now I have a very special message for [you]. ”Thanks for playing Super Mario 64! This is [the] end of [the] game, but not [the] end of [the] fun.
