Super Mario Bros. 3/Secrets

Treasure ship or White Coin Ship

The treasure ship can be unlocked on worlds 1, 3, 5 and 6 (i. e. those that do not have custom Hammer Brother variations).

To do so, you must beat any level while fulfilling the following requirements:

• Your coin total must be a multiple of 11 (such as 11, 22, 33, 44,..., but not 00)
• The tens digit of your score must match the digit of your coin score (i. e. 22350 points and 55 coins). AND...
• Your time MUST end with the number matching the previous 2. [Coins= 33 + Score= 25430 + Time= 163]

Fulfill these criteria and the enemy will turn into a WHITE COIN SHIP!!

• There are 177 coins to collect.
• There's a hidden 1-up between the 1st and 2nd portholes, near the end.
• Inside the ship, you'll have to fight against two Boomerang Bros. to beat the treasure ship.
• Rewards are as follows: World 1- Star World 3- Hammer World 5- P-Wing World 6- Lakitu's Cloud. Also called a Jugem's Cloud.
• DO NOT: use a music box, die during gameplay, get crushed and/or fall down an opening.

N-Spade game solutions

The following table will present all eight of the possible N-Spade mini game solutions. When a new N-Spade game has begun, one of these eight pre-configured solutions will be chosen at random. Once you can determine which pattern has been chosen, you can reference this chart to uncover all of the items.

To determine which solution to follow, try turning over the first (leftmost) card in the middle and bottom rows. Of the eight possibilities, only two solutions have the same contents for these cards; a 10 coin card and a star. If you don't find the 10 coin card and a star, you will know exactly which solution to follow. If you do find them, turn over the third card from the left on the bottom. If you find another star, uncover the first one that you found in the corner. If you find a 20 coin card instead, it's match is immediately to the left. Note that the last (rightmost) three cards in the bottom row are always the same for every pattern.

Secret King messages

Beat the boss of any world with either the Frog, Tanooki or Hammer Suit. The king will then say a different message.

• Frog Suit: Oh me, oh my! You've been transformed! Shall I change you back with this wand?
• Tanooki Suit: Thank you, kind raccoon. Please tell me your name.
• Hammer Suit: Hey, you! How about lending me your clothes? No dice?! What a drag.

Unlimited items

Find a map with one or more of Toad's mushroom treasure houses (Worlds 1-7), open a chest to get items. Die 5 times (or try a hard level 5 times) to get Game Over. After a game over, go to Toad's treasure house again and pick up items. You will keep all items even after a game over, so this is a great way to stockpile items.
