A Button Challenge
This star can be done in 0 A-presses. The strategy is to navigate to the freezing pond, bounce off a Spindrift to reach the exclamation boxes, and then use a dive recover to open the box containing the Koopa Shell. Then, the shell is ridden up to the edge of the stage and Backward shell hyperspeed is used to build up speed to reach the ice platform with the penguin. From there, Mario bounces off a Fly Guy to reach the star. In the RTABC challenge, this star is collected in 1 A-press by using the cannon.
