After the first area, Mario will encounter pipes, treasures, puzzles, games and even a few enemies (many which are fairly weak). There is no boss in the Pipe Vault. | ||

*The Pipe Vault is considered a reference to the "classic" [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] Mario platformers. For instance, the vault is home to the classical enemies of the ''[[Mario (franchise)|Mario]]'' franchise, including [[Goomba]]s, [[Thwomp]]s, [[Piranha Plant]]s, [[Spikey (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)|Spikey]]s ([[Spiny|Spinies]]), [[Lava Bubble]]s, [[Nipper Plant]]s and [[Shy Ranger]]s (an elusive type of [[Shy Guy]]). In fact, the only enemy in the Pipe Vault that cannot be linked to the original platformers is [[Frogog]], who only appears in ''Super Mario RPG''. Additionally, the Pipe Vault is only one square wide, creating a pseudo-two dimensional effect. At one point Mario must run and crouch to slide under a low block, just like in the original platformers. The background music is also a cover of the underground theme in the original ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' | |||
