'''Vanish Cap Under the Moat''' (called '''Vanish Cap Switch Course''' in the message that appears upon first entering the course) is a secret course | '''Vanish Cap Under the Moat''' (called the '''Vanish Cap Switch Course''' in the message that appears upon the player first entering the course) is a secret course that contains the [[Cap Switch|Vanish Cap Switch]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. In order to access the course, [[Mario]] must drain the [[water]] in the moat of the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]] by [[Ground Pound|ground-pounding]] two [[brick pillar]]s in the basement, then go outside through the newly exposed door. After he does so, there is a hole in the drained moat by the waterfall that warps him to the course. | ||

However, a second [[Power Star]] was added. Also, a [[Block (Super Mario 64)|Black Brick]] (in a rectangular shape, containing three [[coin]]s) covers the entrance to the course, requiring only [[Wario]]'s strength to enter. This is one of the three secret [[level]]s in the remake that only one certain character can access, the others being [[Chief Chilly Challenge]] for [[Luigi]] and [[Bowser in the Sky]] for Mario. There is a known [[glitch]] that, when performed, allows any character to enter the moat by going out of bounds at high speeds.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtjFf1cZc6o Video of the glitch being executed].</ref> | ||

When Mario first enters the course, he | When Mario first enters the course, he is atop a large slide, with several ledges located scattered throughout. Upon entering, Mario is also [[Vanish Mario]], though nothing happens to Wario in the DS remake. At the bottom of the slide is a path consisting of various moving platforms and [[seesaw|teetering platform]]s that lead to the Cap Switch. There are several [[Amp]]s and [[flame thrower (Flame Chomp)|flame thrower]]s on the path. Once Mario pushes the Vanish Cap Switch, all the [[Cap Block|blue block]]s in the game become solid, making the [[Vanish Cap]] usable. If Mario falls off, he will not lose a life, but he will come out of a gaping hole near the waterfall. In the DS version, if the player falls off, the same will happen, but the Black Brick will respawn. | ||

By turning into Mario, Wario can use a Power Flower to float over to the new area. Wario can also do a precise [[Triple Jump]] and [[dive]] to reach that area. By activating the [[Star Switch]] on the platform, the Power Star appears in the [[Star Sphere]] above. Wario can reach it either by floating upwards to it or by using [[Wall Jump|Wall Kick]]s. | ||
