The B Button Challenge, BBC for short, is a challenge in which the number of presses of the B button is minimized, whether on a per-mission or a per-file basis. The B button mainly grabs objects and does punches and dives by itself, so most stars are not affected from restricting the B button. As a result, not a lot of stars require B presses to save at all; however, some actions such as swinging Bowser require it in any%.

B Presses Left

Below is a table of unique B presses in the B Button Challenge.

B Press # Multiplicity Stage Purpose
#1 3 BoB To grab King Bob-omb, but not to release him
#2 2 Castle To grab MIPS

#4 3 BitS To grab Bowser, but not to release him
