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. In the N64 version, the screen ~~will freeze~~ on the image and the system ~~will need~~ 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.
