The other button challenges aren't as notable as the ABC, because they are relatively trivial.

B Button Challenge

Main article: B Button Challenge

The B Button Challenge is basically the same as the ABC, except it is about avoiding the use of the B Button. In most levels, the B Button isn't required, but some of the ones that seem to require it have exploitable glitches to avoid pressing B.

Unavoidable B presses

(100% Only) The player must press B three times in BoB to defeat King Bob-omb.

The player must press B in Bowser in the Fire Sea, but can avoid pressing B again by letting Mario drop Bowser into the mine.

(100% Only) The player must press B two times to collect two MIPS stars.

The player must press B three times in order to beat Bowser in the Sky. The first two throws are simple; for the third, Mario gets hit by Bowser's Fire, causing him to release Bowser, which allows us to avoid pressing B a fourth time.

Although the player must press B to defeat Bowser in the Dark World, this press is conventionally excluded from totals, because 120 stars can be collected even without completing BitDW.

Unavoidable B Presses (J-Version)

On the J-Version of the game, the player can only use the B Button to initiate text with NPCs, and this introduces additional B presses.

(100% Only) The player must press B three times to collect three toad stars.
