Best Flower Coin farming levels in Super Mario Bros. Wonder

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is a sprawling platformer with plenty to discover in each of its stages, but if you want to complete the game in full, you’ll also need to visit Poplin Shops scattered around the overworld. At these shops, you can purchase helpful things like power-ups, badges, and more — but collecting all of these things will cost a substantial amount of Flower Coins.

You shouldn’t fret too much, as you’ll likely get the majority of the coins you need by playing through the game normally, but there’s still a good chance you’ll come up a bit short if you’re trying to purchase all 144 standees and get every Medal. Here are our picks for the best Flower Coin farming levels in Super Mario Bros. Wonder.

Wall-Climb Jump I Badge Challenge

One of the quickest and easiest flower coin farming spots in the game is the Wall-Climb Jump I Badge Challenge in Pipe-Rock Plateau. While this stage requires a bit of practice to perfect your wall jumping, it can earn you a cool 12 flower coins in 30 seconds or less once you’ve perfected the run. That equates to nearly 1,500 Flower Coins per hour, which should net you more than enough to finish up your standee collection.

Jet Run I Badge Challenge

Another efficient flower coin farming spot is the Jet Run I Badge Challenge, which also resides in Pipe-Rock Plateau. This stage can be completed in less than 60 seconds per run and can net you 13 Flower Coins each time through. As it’s a three-star challenge, it will require a bit of skill to nail the jumps required to get all of the coins, but once you’ve made your way through a few times, you should get the timing down and be able to score the coins just fine with each pass.

Bonus: Coins Galore!

Perhaps the very best place to score a huge chunk of flower coins is the Bonus: Coins Galore! stage, which unlocks after you’ve beaten the game. This stage can respawn anywhere around the map and requires little to no skill to complete, as you’ll simply move through the linear level collecting tons of standard coins and flower coins completely free of danger. Unfortunately, while this stage can earn you nearly 60 flower coins in less than 30 seconds, the fact that it moves around the map makes it unreliable for consistent farming. Even so, you’ll want to keep your eyes open for its respawns as you play because passing up that many flower coins would be a missed opportunity!

How to unlock everything in Super Mario Party Jamboree: boards, characters, more

The next installment in the Mario Party franchise is finally here, and it's packed with more boards, characters, and minigames than ever before. Mario Party Jamboree is the most robust entry and caps off the series' successful run on the Switch.

While there's plenty to discover and explore on your own by playing the game, longtime Mario Party fans will be looking to unlock as much content as possible quickly. We all want to play every board right away to find our favorites and spend some time in the shoes of new playable characters. Luckily, the unlockable characters and boards in Jamboree are pretty easy to unlock!
How to unlock characters in Super Mario Party Jamboree
When you first start playing Jamboree, you'll immediately see two mystery figures on the character selection screen. In past Mario Party entries, unlocking new characters took a lot of grinding — from winning a certain amount of games to long minigame marathons — but in Jamboree, you can unlock new characters immediately. You just have to know where to look.

I wasn’t expecting Mario & Luigi: Brothership to surprise me as much as it did
Luigi kicks a shell in Mario & Luigi: Brothership.

I’m not sure what’s harder to believe: The fact that there hasn’t been a new Mario & Luigi game in nearly a decade or that the series has never had a full console game. Regardless of which fact you find more shocking, Mario & Luigi: Brothership is kind of a big deal. It’s not just a grand return for a beloved RPG series that was on the verge of losing its way, but also a chance for Nintendo to prove that it’s not just a handheld experience. I wouldn’t call it a make-or-break moment, but it’s still the kind of game that’s important to get right.

Thankfully, Nintendo seems to be taking that task very seriously. During a preview event, I played over an hour of Brothership. That snippet would reintroduce me to familiar timing-based combat and some fresh animations that are giving the series a modern cartoon overhaul. But Brothership isn’t just an old Mushroom Kingdom adventure with a new look; it comes with an ingenious new combat system that could redefine the series on its maiden console voyage.

Super Mario Party Jamboree’s motion-control modes have real Rhythm Heaven energy
Mario and friends cut vegetables in Super Mario Party Jamboree.

Earlier this month, I got what I felt was an in-depth hands-on session with Super Mario Party Jamboree. I played a traditional round of Mario Party, dabbled in some loose minigames, dominated in the mass-multiplayer Koopathalon, and took on a kaiju in Bowser's Kaboom Squad. It felt like I'd seen everything there was to see -- but it hadn't. Last Monday, Nintendo revealed a host of extra modes coming to Jamboree, including a suite of motion-controlled minigames: Paratrooper Flight School, Toad's Item Factory, and Rhythm Kitchen.

As someone who still harbors a fondness for the days of Wii waggle controls, that reveal further piqued my interest in a game that already had my attention. Last year, WarioWare: Move It! showed me that I'm always down to move my body if you give me a good reason to. Based on a quick Rhythm Kitchen session in my second Jamboree hands-on demo, it seems like Nintendo is going to pull that trick off again, if only for a few short sessions.
