Tower of the Wing Cap Red Coins is a secret star in the stage Tower of the Wing Cap. To get this star, Mario must collect all 8 Red Coins in the level.

Locations

  • 2 are located in each of the 4 coin rings in the level (Right, Left, Front, and Back) for a total of all 8 red coins.

A Presses

There is 0x A presses required to get the star and hit the switch.[2] The star is too high to be collected with a dive recover and normally pressing the switch will make Mario fall onto the ground. However, Mario is able to perform a rollout on the first frame of landing on the wing cap switch, gaining enough height to collect the star.

TAS

The current TAS world record is 19.83.[3]
