I never beat it as a kid and i remember very well this was colossal hard and then 2 years later mario bros 2 comes out and is easier than cleaning a house with only a kitchen, a room and a bathroom
I remember that the first time I beat this stage, I was so tired and I immediately turned off my DS and went to bed. Needless to say, I was horrified the next morning when I realised that it hadn’t saved lmao
It does give you the option to save after you complete any tower or castle level (or unlock a starcoin path). You need to make sure you select yes, although after you have completed the final boss, you then have the option added on to save at anytime.
Playing on a DS always feels different to the YT videos... Like, I played on my DSi XL again and was sort of impressed (though I do admit its age was showing), but looking at gameplay uploaded to CZcams it looked way different
@@FarmYardGaming Yea that's partially dodgy pixel scaling, pixels being scaled up by an integer just being larger too, and video compression. I still play around with my dsi sometimes and the pixels are so much smaller than it looks in youtube videos that the graphics genuinely look pretty neat
Just walk in the certain pattern they did in 3:00. You gotta walk in that certain pattern to progress to the next level. When you go he right way it should make a du dum noise. When you go the wrong way it makes a wrong buZzer noise
omg, same! i was cleaning my room when i saw my dsi and decided i should play again since it’s summer. i really missed it :’) and i really wanna finally beat this level lmao. got stuck on it years ago too
What I did was made sure I had my fire power at the end of the level when entering the boss room and shot both bosses with fireballs. You do have to be vary of which one you decided to shoot of first. If you clear off the little one first, the big one becomes more aggressive and breathes out more fireballs.
reyes andrea I remember when I was 8 (I’m now nearly 14) and I got to this stage and my sister erased all my games,I was so angry 😂 finally I’ve completed it and all Mario gets is a pecking on the cheek ffs
Kylus Racha I remember my cousin wanted me to do this boss fight for her, and I just triple jumped over bowser, definitely one of the top ten moments in my life
What I did was shot at both Bosses with the fireballs. You should be vary of which one you shoot dead first, ie if you clear off the little boss, the big one becomes more aggressive and breathes out more fireballs.
When I was a kid I was too afraid of the skeleton koopas....so I let my dad finishes the game 😂 , I was so impressed , he was really good 😱 now , are 5 years that I don't see him at all and watching this again after 9 years....hurts a little
Fun story: I beat bowser in this game by accident. So I was gonna kill myself in the game to restart since I lost all my power ups and then Bowser JUMPED!!! XD I beat the game on my bus too in winter of 2012. I got the game 6 months ago from that day. What an adventure.
This was the first game I ever beat. I'll always remember when I saw the ending scene and how emotional it felt for me for some reason. Such a great game
God, I remember being so fascinated by this stage when I was a kid. I don't know why, but I guess it's because I reached the final level and the gimmick of this level was gravity-based. I remember playing this level all the time. Those were the days...
Whenever I fought the final boss of this specific game, I always fought Bowser Jr like you do in the fortress; the long way of throwing a shell at his face, and then I went after Bowser, not only did it let the final boss theme stay longer, but it was actually quite a tough fight for a Mario game like that.
Aighhh😭😭😭😭So much memories! I remember when I was 6 years old and I asked my brother to help me by killing Bowser (I always died with entering Bowser’s door sadly) but when my brother killed him, I cried because I thought it was the end😭😭It is my favorite game if all times
What you should do is make sure you go in the boss room with the fire power (and that stored item). You then shoot both Bosses with the fireballs (especially the big one). If you shoot of the little one before the big boss, then the big one will become more aggressive.
As far as I remember, the fastest way possible to this Castle are the following Exits, Warp Pipes and Warp Cannons in this order. 1: World 1-1 2: Secret Exit In World 1-2 (Path Also Has A Red Toad House) 3: Secret Exit In The World 1 Tower 4: World 1 Warp Cannon To World 5 5: World 5-1 6: Secret Exit In World 5-2 7: Warp Pipe To World 5-3 8: Secret Exit In The World 5 Ghost House 9: World 5 Warp Cannon To World 8 10: World 8-1 11: World 8-2 12: World 8 Tower 1 13: World 8-3 14: World 8-4 15: World 8 Castle 16: World 8-5 17: World 8-6 18: World 8-7 19: World 8-8 20: World 8 Tower 2
Héla Guezmirh Memory castle. You have to go the right way, or you’ll end up in the same room you were just in. If you follow what was in the video, you’ll see where to go. Or just keep trying paths until you hear the confirmation sound.
I was 6 when I played this I believe? It had just come out. This level was so hard for my tiny brain to grasp i had to get my dad to get through the castle so I could fight the final boss
Even now, this is still my favorite Mario game of all time. Entirely nostalgic bias, I realize, but come on… it’s such a charming sequel to Mario World. Love this game to bits.
Man I was in 3rd grade when my mom bought me a DS and the first game was nsmb1 and I enjoyed it. When I heard there was a sequel nsmb2. I wanted it so bad. Only to realize it was bad.
@@vxwdarkdemon3756 The final Bowser fight is not easy. It's so platforming, literally. The Dry Bowser battle is a bit tougher than the normal Bowser because some of the platforms are tinier.
I remember when I played this game and I got to world 8-castle I played the dry bowser boss and after beating the boss, My heart pounded fast knowing that there was more!
I remember when I was 6 I completed that on a nice summer day sitting at my balcony When lockdown in 2020 happened I completed this again and felt so good I should definitely play that game again but I'm really busy nowadays and there's no time but I should totally do it again
I have to admit I found my old DS and watched this video to know how in the world could I beat the final castle because I always failed to do it by myself
I never beat this level when I was a kid. I remember doing well then I'd get stuck in a corridor that was really long/endless (I can't really remember) I would just always run out of time because of that one corridor. I'm probably going to buy this game again at some point to actually beat it
I remember this level being much longer for some reason
Kitty floof it’s bcz the last part u need to speed run it all
Same as a kid I would take forever on it
It's because there's a pattern

I would replay this over and over as a kid.
How does Mario's hat survive getting roasted and ripped to shreds in this level? Video game logic i guess?
duh
Its cappy
how does he survive?
I guess all plumber hats have godlike properties.
@@lennyface5314 fair point
The memories are coming back to me. My entire journey through the game, collected every star coin along the way

The boss battle was so long and intense....

I will say... nothing I ever do in gaming will top that moment.
Make 2D Mario great again Nintendo.
PLEASE.
I beat it when I Was 7 in 2008 Just a lot of memories
This was the first game I ever beat. I'll always remember when I saw the ending scene and how emotional it felt for me for some reason. Such a great game
Good old dayd
I beaten this early in the morning, it was like 1 am and I decided to beat World 8
I was so scared of that level when I was a child , that I made my brother pass it for me
Is it just me, or does Mario walking through doors in this game made him look like a bad@ss?
i always saw the upside down bowser faces as "evil squidward"
God, I remember being so fascinated by this stage when I was a kid. I don't know why, but I guess it's because I reached the final level and the gimmick of this level was gravity-based. I remember playing this level all the time. Those were the days...
We all had that satisfaction moment when bowser jr just fell all the way down the castle after being defeated
3:53
Whenever I fought the final boss of this specific game, I always fought Bowser Jr like you do in the fortress; the long way of throwing a shell at his face, and then I went after Bowser, not only did it let the final boss theme stay longer, but it was actually quite a tough fight for a Mario game like that.
I still play this game with my brother to this day!
I beat every level and got all the golden star coins apart from one I the world 6 mini tower. Till this day it still affects my sleep
Aighhh😭😭😭😭So much memories! I remember when I was 6 years old and I asked my brother to help me by killing Bowser (I always died with entering Bowser’s door sadly) but when my brother killed him, I cried because I thought it was the end😭😭It is my favorite game if all times

Yup
Not gonna lie this level felt like a maze
The struggle was real on this level
started the game at age 6, finished it today at age 26. i feel so good 🎂

So much memories. I was 6-7 when I got this game. W3/W7/W8 were probably my favorite worlds. I got all the Starcoins.
When I first played this level, I died a couple of times, but never got lost, and I only had trouble trying to get the second star coin, lol.
Man nostalgia..... my 10 year old ds is still in good condition to this day and I play the game from time to time
Even now, this is still my favorite Mario game of all time. Entirely nostalgic bias, I realize, but come on… it’s such a charming sequel to Mario World. Love this game to bits.
This level is the only thing standing in between me, and the ability to save whenever I want.
One of the best games I've ever palyed
2:52 caused me mental pain to solve thank you so much
When i was young this level made me rage lol
this bring my old moment when I was kid 😦😢😍😫😭😭😭😭😭
Without your video I never could end this level.....thanks.
I love the cute way how Peach said: "thank you!".
Also, Bowser should had his voice from the Mario Sports games on the Gamecube in this game.
I wouldn't be able to pass this level without this video
Tip: If you use the massive mushroom at the end you can just jump on bowser to kill him
no entiendo ni merga no se ingles
Got the game for my 5th birthday and I beat the game just before I turned 10. I was beyond happy to finish the game.
