Level-Up Bonus
Bonus stats gained when leveling up cannot be changed later. The amount of stats varies increase depends on the character and level, so it's better to decide on who to train first.
Event to Rescue Toad in Mushroom Way
This is an event where you receive an item for rescuing Toad on Mushroom Way. Be careful, as if you proceed without rescuing him and defeat the Hammer Bros, you will no longer be able to rescue him.
Treasure Chest in Mushroom Castle's Storage
| Obtainable Items | ||
|---|---|---|
| Flower | Mushroom | Coins x10 |
The treasure chest in Mushroom Castle's storage can be opened once before going to Bandit's Way and once after clearing the game. If you proceed further, you will not be able to enter again, so be sure to open it before and after clearing the game.
Rewards from Rescued Mushroom Castle Residents
When Mushroom Castle is attacked by Mack's forces after clearing Bandit's Way, you can receive items as a reward for rescuing specific residents. These cannot be received after defeating Mack, so be sure to receive them all immediately.
| Resident's Location | Obtainable Item |
|---|---|
| Back right of the castle interior | Wake-Up Pin ×1 |
| Peach's room in the castle Choice "It's okay" | Flower Tab ×1 |
| Left private house outside the castle | Flower Tab ×1 |
| Lower right outside the castle | Flower Tab ×1 |
| Patrol outside the castle | Coins ×10 |
Consecutive Stays at Rose Town Inn
When you first visit Rose Town, an event will occur when you enter the inn, and you will stay overnight. After waking up, if you go outside once, re-enter, and stay consecutively, you will receive a "Flower Tab" from Toad. This only occurs at this point, so be careful.
Partially Skippable Boss Battles
Some bosses can be skipped by clearing mini-games or taking alternate routes, but once skipped, they cannot be fought again. Dodo can still be fought later, but Booster will appear with different abilities in the post-game rematch.
Ripple Town Item Shop Before Sunken Ship
The item shop in Ripple Town sells items that are only available before clearing the Sunken Ship. Among them, "Poison Mushroom" and "Muku Cookie" are difficult items to obtain, so it’s worth purchasing them at least once to experience their unique effects.
Speardovich's Choices
Depending on how you respond when Speardovich—disguised as the Ripple Town elder—demands the Star Piece, the item you receive from the real elder later will change. For an efficient playthrough, it’s better not to refuse.
| Number of Refusals | Obtainable Item |
|---|---|
| 0 times | Flower Box ×1 |
| 1 time | Flower Jar×1 |
| 2 times | Flower Tab ×1 |
| 3 or more times | Coin ×1 |
Save First to See Refusal Dialogue
If you want to see the dialogue when you refuse 3 or more times, save after clearing the Sunken Ship battle and make sure you can redo it.
Enemies in Some Areas After Clearing
In some areas like Moleville, there may be enemies that do not reappear after clearing. The monster list can be filled by the registrar in Bean Valley, but if you want to fill it by fighting them directly, make sure not to miss them before clearing.
Elements That Are No Longer Missable
Introducing elements that were missable in past games but are no longer missable in this remake.
Mushroom Castle's Hidden Treasure Chest
The hidden treasure chest (Frog Coin) above the door in the first map of Mushroom Castle could only be reached when first visiting in past games, and was missable if missed once. This time, Toad is always wandering around, allowing you to get on top at any time.
Booster Tower's Curtain Hide-and-Seek
The "Booster's Charm" obtained from the curtain hide-and-seek in Booster Tower had no way to be reacquired in past games. This time, it can be obtained during the post-game rematch with Booster.
Dodo Statue Mini-Game and Feather Reward
Successfully completing the mini-game where Dodo pecks the statue in Nimbus Land rewards you with "Dodo's Feather." In the original version, failing meant you could never get it. In the remake, however, it becomes available for purchase at the curio shop in Moleville after clearing Nimbus Land—succeeding in the mini-game lets you obtain two.
