Silver Star: Difference between revisions

Silver Stars are introduced in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'', being a new feature introduced into the game from the [[Super Mario 64|original]]. In some levels, the player must collect five of them to get a [[Power Star]] that will appear inside a [[Star Sphere]]. They are found in several courses, including [[Battle Fort]] and [[Sunshine Isles]]. If a character gets damaged while holding one or more Silver Stars, he will lose one and it will scatter and bounce around the area nonstop. The player must catch it again to retrieve it. If the player has all 5 Silver Stars and then drops one, the Star in the sphere will disappear. The touch screen shows the location of these stars. Silver Stars can only be collected if the Silver Stars mission is chosen from the menu.

Similar physics are used in the multiplayer mode of ''Super Mario 64 DS'' and the missions may have been the inspiration of the multiplayer mode or the other way around. However, in multiplayer mode, the Silver Stars are replaced by Power Stars.
