Or one extra Frogsuit and a lot of practice. So I needed one extra Frogsuit and one extra cloud. Combined with the fact that I've NEVER been able to beat that dumb thing normally.

And the Fortress isn't friendly to Frog Mario, either. x.x 8-1 proper has a Small Mario-sized space.

and I got to the numbered levels of world 8 before I realized that I wasn't going to make it to the end. And I was totally out of Frogsuits by that point. I needed more items or more skill, one of the two. > Īnyways, help with the Suit/Cloud issue will be greatly appreciated.Īnd now that I've blathered on endlessly, back to the self-imposed hell I've jumped into. And the dumb thing hops along slow enough as it. I figure I can make this work well enough without it. Since I don't have the patience to control games with my keyboard, this is being made in VirtuaNES 0.78 without slowdown. How many Clouds are available in the whole of the game - and where? How many Frogsuits can I get in the whole of the game - and where? So in the end, I need to know two things. So I have to try and save my remaining Cloud for there. And as I've been told, world 7's gonna gimme hell. Meaning that after that point, I cannot lose the remaining Frogsuit to be taken from me. Even with a Starman active, I can't bounce through without losing the Frogsuit. Hence, I can either duck or BE Small Mario through that spot. If I can make it to world 6 with both Frogsuits intact, I'll have to lose one in that dumb Fortress because the automatic lift takes you through a spot that's only as high as Small Mario.

I know I can pick up two Frogsuits in world 3 and I'll have a single Cloud after world 5 (Since you get one from beating the world and all.) Trouble is, as of now, I've only played through to world 6's first Fortress. But I can't do that for the world 6 fortress, as it guards a lock that requires opening.Īs it stands, I'm going directly from level 1-3 to world 3, doing the first two levels normally, and then getting and staying in the Frogsuit as long as possible.

Or I use the Cloud and phase through these levels.įor the world 4 Fortress, I can use the Cloud from the first Hammer Brother fight to pass it over. If I'm forced to abandon the suit, I'll re-equip another after the level. I can get all the Frogsuits I can and just go through the levels as normal. The first Fortress in world 4 and the first Fortress in world 6 come to mind. I'll be going through normally tonight to see just how many spots that I physically CAN'T get through in the Frogsuit.
