"Shoot into the Wild Blue" is the third mission of Whomp's Fortress in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. The goal is to collect the Power Star located on a floating platform.

Layout[edit]

The Power Star is found across a water basin near a cannon, which can be activated by a Bob-omb Buddy standing next to it. The floating platform has a couple of poles that can be easily latched on to by using the cannon, as indicated by the mission name. Once the player is on the platform, they can easily collect the Star, located below the platform with a circle of coins.

The Star can also be reached through numerous other methods: performing a Side Somersault followed by a Wall Kick on the nearby brick wall can give enough jumping height to reach the platform without the cannon. Jumping from the ledge above and using a mid-air kick to steer Mario backwards can also allow the player to reach the platform above the Star, and in Super Mario 64 DS, Yoshi can flutter-kick from above to reach the same platform.
