Wii, you find this formation.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/snmbw_1ups1.jpg" /></div> <p>Look familiar?</p> <p>It's strikingly similar to a formation we saw in a <a href="http://protipoftheday.com/node/49">prior tip</a>. Check it out</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/smb_1ups_2.jpg" /></div> <p>So you might be thinking you can apply the same technique: wait until the Koopa gets about halfway down the 'stair' and jump on it.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/snmbw_1ups2.jpg" /></div> <p>You keep bouncing, racking up points, until</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/snmbw_1ups3.jpg" /></div> <p>1UP!</p> <p>You can keep doing this for as long as there's time left on the clock, with the added bonuses of: 1. there's no bug that goes off if you get more than a certain amount of lives, 99's the limit and 2. if you need to, you can come back to this stage and do the trick again for yet more lives.</p> <p>And, to help illustrate the timing, I've prepared the video below.</p> <div align="center"> <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/c5N4PYlNLig&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/c5N4PYlNLig&hl=en_US&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x5d1719&color2=0xcd311b" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></div> new super mario bros. wii pro tip technique wii Mon, 30 Nov 2009 13:10:56 +0000 Will 315 at http://protipoftheday.com
