"Switch Star on the Island" is the seventh and finalmission ofTiny-Huge Island, exclusive toSuper Mario 64 DS. The mission's objective is to collect the Switch Star inWiggler's cave.

Layout[edit]

Map of the cave

The player must be able to get inside the cave, likewise as they did in "Wiggler's Red Coins." There are several methods to get inside the cave. One method requires thecannon to be open. If it is not open, talking to theBob-omb Buddy where the cannon would be located on the Tiny Island will open it. On the Huge Island, the player needs to use the cannon to blast to atree on the cliffside. Once up there, the player has to cross a narrow bridge, which is slightly larger in the DS version, to reach the opening into the cave.

Alternative ways to get inside the cave arejumping high and long enough from a higher location to land on the bridge leading into the cave, usingLuigi'sBackward Somersault, and riding aKoopa Shell up the hill to reach the top of the cliffside.

In the cave on the large platform to the left of the entrance is theStar Switch, with theStar Sphere on the opposite end of the cave on top of one of the pillars. Once the switch is pressed, thePower Star appears in the Star Sphere. In order to reach it in time,Mario has torun to the pillars and use hisWall Kick between them, or Luigi can use his Backward Somersault. The player can also jump and climb on thewire net to reach the Star Sphere if they are fast enough.
