The stage begins with Mario landing on a large arrow-shaped platform, signifying the direction he is supposed to go. Next are a few platforms arranged like a set of stairs, with the final one having a moving platform slide out of it, which can push Mario off the platform into the [[pit|abyss]] below if the player is not careful. At the top of the platforms is a block that can be pushed to reach a [[Red Coin]]. After the stair platforms is a [[seesaw]] that tilts based on where Mario is standing, dropping him out of the level if he remains in place for too long. Afterward is a large ramp that Mario can [[dash|run]] up to reach a bend that leads to a spinning platform; in the DS version of the game, this platform holds the [[Star Sphere]].

At the top of the stairs is a large bending platform with a few [[flamethrower]]s and [[coin]]s, along with a Red Coin at the top. At the end of this bending platform is a [[lift]] that carries Mario through a series of platforms he needs to [[jump]] over, with one of them containing a [[Spinning Heart]] the player can use to recover Mario's [[Health Meter|health]]. Once the lift reaches the end of its rail, it turns around and heads back to its original position, or if Mario remains off it for a certain amount of time, it warps back to its original position. After the lift are two spinning platforms containing a flame thrower, [[Bob-omb]]s, and [[Amp]]s, with the back platform having a pole for Mario to climb and reach the next area. | At the top of the stairs is a large bending platform with a few [[flamethrower]]s and [[coin]]s, along with a Red Coin at the top.

While the method of defeating Bowser is similar to that for the previous fights, there are many differences between his attacks and the stage. Unlike the previous battles when the player had four [[Mine|spiked orb]]s (eight in the remake), this battle has five spiked orbs. When Bowser slams the ground, shockwaves appear, and they damage Mario if he touches them. Bowser retains the fire attacks from the previous battles and can also [[Fire Breath|breathe a stream of fire]] into the air, which falls back down as several red and blue (green in the DS remake) [[fireball (obstacle)|fireball]]s, with the latter type splitting into three [[Lava Bubble|Sparkie]]s of the same color upon landing. Bowser's leaping out of the abyss can result in part of the platform breaking before he does his shockwave attack. The last difference is that Bowser has to take damage from three spiked orbs before admitting defeat; after taking damage from two spiked orbs, he causes the entire outer edge of the battlefield to break off, forming it into a star-like shape, and the third throw requires much more power and timing than the first two. Additionally, each time Bowser is damaged, it becomes easier for Mario to grab Bowser's tail without having to bait him into performing the charging attack. After the third hit, Bowser gives Mario the [[Jumbo Star]]. When he touches it, he acquires the [[Wing Cap]], allowing him to [[fly]] and land in the [[Castle Grounds]], where Peach and two Toads (Luigi, Wario, and [[Yoshi]] in the DS version) are waiting for him. Mario releases Peach from above the door entrance, and she bakes a [[cake]] for her hero(es). The credits then roll. The game ends with a screenshot of the cake that Peach baked, with statuettes of Mario and Peach on top, and the words "The End" below.

The game ends with a screenshot of the cake that Peach baked, with statuettes of Mario and Peach on top, and the words "The End" below. In the N64 version, the screen freezes on the image afterwards and the system needs to be turned off or reset. In the DS remake, the making of the cake is shown on the bottom screen during the credits, and statuettes of Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario are added to the cake; Luigi and Wario's statuettes are added if they are unlocked. This time, the player can press the {{button|ds|start}} button on the [[Nintendo DS]] to return to the Title Screen. | ||
