 # Yoshi's Unexpected Appearance (50 star bits): You can get 50 star bits without entering the glass sphere.  On the planet with the spiders and crystals, you can stand at a certain spot and angle and press Up on the Control Pad to look toward a distant rocket and three pull-star spheres.  You can then collect about 10 star bits from the spheres and the shooting stars that fall down to the rocket.

 #** Grab the ? coin and follow the moving floor.  Long jump to the right as soon as the moving floor has gone past the second ? block.  You should land at the vertical chamber.  This is slower but easier than the previous method.
 #* In the vertical chamber, after the second-highest floor materializes, do a triple jump toward the ledge in front of the star's door, then wall jump off of the side of ledge and land on the ledge.  Then jump out to get the ? coin, and claim the star once the door opens.
+#* The invisible doors leading up to the Star are always solid. You can wall jump off the front or sides of them and land on top. Use these doors as platforms to jump up to the Star without waiting for the auto-scroller to complete.

 #** Don't go toward the bridge switch, but instead go right, and do a backflip or triple jump followed by a wall jump to reach the upper ledge.  Go left and use spins to get up the grassy slope.  After getting up the slope, use a backflip and wall jump to get to the upper area, then long jump to the launch star.
 #** Go right and reach the upper ledge, then head right toward the waterfall.  Go behind the waterfall, stand near the edge, and face the wall.  Do a backflip and veer backward in the air to avoid hitting the ceiling, then veer forward toward the wall and spin.  Then use a wall jump to reach the top of the waterfall.  The tricky part is hitting a good spot of the wall so you can wall jump off of it.
-#* Skip having to climb the windmill by falling straight onto the top of it.  Method 1: after the launch star, head to the second planet and then triple jump near the bottom (next to the sling star), then spin and fall to the windmill tower ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ENEz-8JyYo Video]).  Method 2: after the launch star, head to the bottom of the third planet, do a backflip or triple jump followed by a wall jump against the tree-trunk-shaped structure, then spin and fall to the windmill tower (1:54 in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQrsLHzXoAA[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lQrsLHzXoAA this video]).

 #** Skip the Bee Mushroom, and use a triple jump or cataquack boost followed by a wall jump to get onto the wood block tower.  Then get across the flowers in a continuous chain of long jumps to reach the star.  This method involves very difficult timing, but appears to be possible for both Mario and Luigi.

-#* Take a shortcut straight to the beginning of the tower: get onto the higher ledge over the boulder generator, then go over to the large tree in the back.  The camera should turn the other way when you get close to the tree; position yourself behind the tree, so that you can only see your shadow through the tree. Now do a backflip and a wall jump off of the tree, then a (difficult) wall jump off of the wooden platform to get up. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onVha9JS9T0 Video]

 #** Alternative method: do a triple jump and a single wall jump off of the tree, and you can barely make it up to the wooden platform if your wall-jump angle was good.
 #* Tower climbing shortcuts: after using the swing to get onto the tower, head left and do a triple jump or a backflip and wall jump to get to the higher ledge.  Then backflip right and wall jump off of the railing to get onto the trampoline platform.  Ground-pound the trampoline, veer right in the air, and wall jump off of the tower to make it up to the ledge with the arrow sign.
