The Power Star is hidden inside the terrain, specifically the corner of the wall next to the rotating bridge and the sleeping [[Piranha Plant]]. The intended means to release the Star is to break this corner, which can be achieved only by firing the player character into it from the [[cannon]]. However, in ''Super Mario 64'', it is possible, though difficult, to get this Star without the cannon, as it juts out from the corner just enough that [[Mario]] can reach it with precise timing.<ref>Samusaran94 (October 11, 2014). [https://youtu.be/uWQIjIF12jo Super Mario 64 : Easy Cannonless (Blast away the wall)]. ''YouTube''. Retrieved January 11, 2021.</ref> This trick is not possible in ''Super Mario 64 DS'' due to the short animation showing the Power Star emerging from the wall. After that, the player can follow the path up and easily collect the Power Star. The wall to the left of the one containing the Star is similarly destructible, though nothing is inside it.

It should also be noted that in ''Super Mario 64'', after hitting one of the destructible walls, Mario loses one wedge of [[Health Meter|health]]. He may also take small fall damage if the collision is too high up. In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', no wedges of health are lost after the player hits the wall.
