What each player can do here

P1 · Mario
  • Mario: all the running, jumping and captures. There are no lives; when Mario is defeated he drops 10 coins and goes back into the level.
P2 · Cappy
  • Cappy: flies freely but only within a set range of Mario, jumps and ground-pounds on its own, clears hazards off the ground, and can give Mario about a second of float once per jump.
  • Until Player 2 presses a button, Cappy simply hovers above Mario's head, and it keeps moving even while Mario is inside a capture.
  • Start two-player from the + menu under Two Players; pressing left on the directional buttons swaps who plays Mario.one guide

If your skill levels differ: The newer player takes Cappy: it cannot get lost, because it stays within range of Mario and simply rides on his head until moved. The Cappy player's clearest way to help is the float boost, once per jump. How to split the roles

Bowser

Part 1 of 1. Survive the first fight with Bowser.

Boss

BowserThe first Bowser fight

  1. Boxing hat: Bowser sends his boxing-glove hat at you. Hit it with Cappy, capture it, and punch your way up to him.
  2. Fake hats: Later he throws several hats at once; skip the shadowy copies and capture only the real hat.
