Pipe Down is the fith book in the [[Nintendo Adventure Books]] series.
It's Princess Toadstool's birthday and everyone has crowded into the castle to celebrate. [[Wooster]] has made sure everything is spotless, and a cake has been made. So far, every gift the Princess has recieved has been a pair of shoes or has been shoe related. Suddenly, she sees an unmarked box and opens it. Inside is a pair of hi-top basketball sneakers, and she claims that it is the best present ever. Peach asks her father, the king, if they were from him, but he forgets. She puts them on and soon the king says that he got her two basketballs. He hands her the bag.  


Suddenly, she is dribbling one uncontrollably and running out the door screaming for help. [[Mario]] and [[Luigi]] immediately get up and chase after her to the Koopahari Desert where she finally stops. The Princess tells them that some strange organ music are controlling the shoes which are making her do strange things. Peach tries to tell them how to get to the shoe vault and get her special shoes, but soon the organ music starts up and she is running off again. Mario and Luigi decide to head down into the shoe vault under the castle. There are literally hundreds of shoes there. Mario and Luigi decide to take the cowboy boots, but soon find themselves lost in the Pipe World! The Bros. argue about whose fault it is, but the sound of the organ music breaks them up. They try to follow it, but they just keep going around and around in circles. Suddenly, a giant crab blocks their path, but the Bros. give him a party favor and some coins so he will let them pass through.  
==Plot Summary==
It's [[Princess Toadstool]]'s birthday and when she puts on her favorite gift, a pair of basketball sneakers, strange music starts to play and she runs right out the window. The Mario Brothers follow her trail to Pipe Land, and find [[Ludwing von Koopa]] up to no good.


Soon they notice that the pipes have become clear-walled, and filled with a slew of coins, compensating for their loss to the crab. The come to the end of the pipe and see the organ playing the music! Down below playing the strange music is [[Ludwig Von Koopa]], with Toadstool dancing around dribbling. Ludwig sees them and orders his troopas to attack. The Bros. suddenly black out, and when they wake up, they are in tutus dancing around along with Peach under Ludwig's control for the nine-year tour through Dark World.
==Items==
Basketball, [[Starman]], Wading boots, Cowboy boots, Steel-toed boots, Balloon (not shown), Noisemaker (not shown)


Hopeless, the three hang their heads and dribble around. All of a sudden, the cowboy boots kick at the organ and it falls to the ground onto Ludwig, saving them. The Princess removes her shoes, while Ludwig claims that he can finally hear again (his bad hearing being responsible for the strangness of the music). The Mario Bros. and Peach then travel back to the Mushroom Kingdom for a celebration.
