In ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'' games, '''Power Stars''' are spread throughout the worlds, and [[Mario]] (or in the [[Nintendo DS]] remake, [[Mario]], [[Yoshi]], [[Luigi]], and [[Wario]]) is sent to go find them all. There are 7 power stars (8 in DS remake) to collect in each world, and after finding 70 of them (80 in DS remake), the final boss, [[Bowser]], can be defeated. There are 150 Power Stars in all, as of Super Mario 64 DS, but only 120 were in the original.
