Puzzle Pronto |
- If you have the first puzzle where you have to press all the mushrooms, I recommend that you are already ready to press when the “Start” icon appears on the screen. ~ General_JF
- If you have the puzzle where you have to put the items in their place, DO NOT BE FAST, the game requires precision so if you go too fast, it will not count. ~ General_JF
- The puzzle with the pipes is by far the most difficult. I recommend that you try to position each part of the pipe in one direction and see if the game counts it. If not, you can turn it in another part of the pipe and so on, until the game counts it. ~ General_JF
- If you have the puzzle with the numbers, similar to that of mushrooms, I recommend that you are already ready when the “Start” appears on the screen. ~ General_JF

- Turn without accelerating or you will very easily take a wall. ~ General_JF

 |
Blown Hover |
- You can do a small jump by tapping the A button quickly, it’ll only jump over 1 tile but it is quicker. ~ Spongyoshi
- First obstacles only cover the first two tiles so you can jump over all of them with ease. Afterward, there’s snake-ones that cover one or two of the top spots. If you can, stay below their starting point so you can jump over it. Then, the last four are either a full square that cover the top and middle (don’t jump), a middle and bottom (full jump), or an M formation (jump/go below on the free spaces). ~ Spongyoshi
|
 |

Cheepers Keepers |
- If you’re playing alone, pause-buffering could be a good strategy so you’re ready to smash the right button when it appears, especially against CPU Masters. ~ General_JF
|
 |
Drive for Show |
- Aiming is relative to your position so if you’re on the far left, aiming in front or into the left will always shoot your ball to the far left target. ~ Spongyoshi
- Targets that haven’t been aimed at for a while will change automatically after 5 seconds. You could try to time your shot to aim at it right away when it becomes available again. ~ Spongyoshi
- Targets often go from 5 to 10 to 20 and finally to -5. This is not always the case, especially towards the end of the minigame. ~ Spongyoshi
