Revision as of 21:03, 21 December 2013
Much of the following information (especially about unlocking conditions) is from the Japanese-language Shogakukan guidebook for SMG2. Please note that mistranslations may be possible, and that at this time of writing, this information has not been tested by SDA players for correctness. Route planners are encouraged to test any condition or requirement that looks out of place.
Comets
- Comets won't appear until you have collected 4 stars from World 3.
- A comet will be unlocked in a galaxy when you've:
- Completed all the normal scenarios (excluding secret scenarios) in that galaxy.
- This means completing all the stars that come before the comet star in the galaxy's star-select screen. The star-select screen always displays normal stars first, then comet stars, then secret stars (see Puzzle Plank Galaxy as an example).
- Collected the comet medal in that galaxy.
- Collected enough comet medals to unlock the comet. (See Worlds section below for requirements specific to each comet.)
- A comet will not be immediately unlocked in a galaxy if:
- You just completed a non-secret star in that galaxy.
- There are already three comets in orbit (unlocked, but not finished) in that particular World. (Up to 3 comets are allowed in orbit per World.)
Banktoad, Star Bits
- The banktoad is unlocked at 7 stars.
- The bank's star-bit storage is shared across all three game files. This means that when you start a new file, and play to the point where you unlock the banktoad, you can withdraw star bits from the bank that you deposited from another file.
- The bank can hold up to 9999 star bits.
- A note about star bits- when starting a new account, the banktoad will have 100 more than the amount you put in on your other account.
Star Bit requirements for each category
- 71-star: 0 star bits are required, strictly speaking; but some Hungry Luma galaxies have short stars, such as Honeybloom's secret star, so it may be worth it to feed some of these Hungry Lumas.
- 120-star: 8500 star bits (300 + 700 + 1000 + 1200 + 1500 + 1800 + 2000) are required to feed all the Hungry Lumas on the World maps.
- For a 242-star run, unlocking the final scenario requires having 9999 star bits in the star bit bank.
- However, it has not been confirmed whether you need 9999 star bits at the point of getting 241 stars, or just at any time during the run.
- If at any time, then this category requires 9999 star bits, as you can just collect and deposit 9999 star bits before feeding any Hungry Lumas.
- If at the moment of getting 241 stars, then this category requires 8500 + 9999 = 18499 star bits.
Mailtoad
- Unlocked at 13 stars.
- Some of the Chimp's challenges (Fluffy Bluff, Honeyhop, Slimy Spring) and Fluzzard races (Wild Glide, Fleet Glide) are unlocked by reading Mailtoad letters. These letters will arrive when certain requirements are met. See the Worlds section for these requirements.
Luigi
- Just like in SMG1, Luigi has faster running speed, longer long jumps, and generally higher and longer jumps than Mario.
- Luigi starts appearing at the beginning of levels when you've collected 3 stars from World 3.
- Despite the fact that Luigi is better than Mario for speedruns (see first point), it is most likely not worth it to switch to Luigi within a level, unless Luigi is required for a very large shortcut. Additionally, Luigi's appearances seem to be random, though this has not been confirmed.
- Luigi won't appear in certain scenarios, such as timed comet stars, daredevil comet stars, and Bowser or Bowser Jr. levels.
- After you clear Star 1 of Bowser's Galaxy Generator, you will be able to switch to Luigi at at any time in Starship Mario, and Luigi will stop appearing at the beginning of levels.
