Hello, everyone. Hopefully, you clicked this topic here instead of starting a whole new topic. There have been too many of those, lately!

Obviously, this walkthrough contains SPOILERS. In case you are related to that elderly woman who sued McDonald's for not warning her that her coffee was hot, well, this is for you.

Notes:
-> This walkthrough only covers the locations of the star coins, not the locations of the secret levels in which they are hidden. If you are having trouble finding a secret level, refer to the Secrets List here: http://runouw.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=28
-> The star coins are listed in order as they appear on the pause screen. Number 1 would correspond with the first coin on that row, and so on.
-> Whenever I say "secret course", I mean the place where you get the fifth shine of each area, with the purple background and such.
-> For those of you who don't speak Mario-geek, Bumpties are those blue penguins. Yay.

So yeah, walkthrough time? Alright.

Walkthrough:

General Tip: When looking for star coins, try zooming the screen out as far as it can go, so that it's easier to see them. They are large and shiny and should stand out rather prominently.

Bob-omb Battlefield
1. Go into that cannon in the beginning, and shoot directly upwards.
2. At the top of the Sky area. Fly there from the Floating Island with the wing cap or use rocket FLUDD.
3. Right above that peg and cage where the chain chomp should be. Use hover or rocket.
4. On the left side of the mountain past the heart and water bottle, jump off the side.
5. On the right side halfway up the mountain with the breakable brick, jump off the side.
6. In the secret course, take a detour to the left near the green moving platforms.

Snowman's Land:
1. Halfway up the Snowman area, before taking the sling star, jump past it onto more Bumpties to get it.
2. In the sky of the first area. Use the cannon, then the wing cap to reach it.
3. In the Mountains area, use the invincibility star to kill the Bumpties surrounding it.
4. In the Ice Maze area, under the moving blocks of ice. Use turbo FLUDD if you don't want to get squashed, but if you don't care, then go right on ahead.
5. In the middle of the first ferris wheel in the More Mountains area.
6. Inside in Ice Maze, jump upwards when you're on the second moving ice block.

Hazy Maze Cave:
1. In the room directly above the pit room, rocket boost up where you see the red arrow pointing upwards.
2. In the Side room with the flying carpet, make your way to the top right of the room and rocket boost.
3. Rocket boost up right when you get the rocket nozzle, then enter the hidden passage to the left of the zooming sign.
4. In the shaft leading down to the underground lake, stick to the left to enter a hidden passage.
5. In the pit room, rocket boost up where the cannonballs are falling down.
6. Inside the Toxic Maze, jump up to the platform just past the second heart.

Boo's Mansion:
1. From the balcony, rocket boost onto the highest platform. The coin is there.
2. At the golden switch (second floor, second door from the left), take the tilting logs and rotating platforms up to it. You need to hit the green switch first.
3. In the secret course, jump off to the right at the shine, or rocket boost from the blue book to the right of the biting book with a water bottle on it.
4. In the west tower room. You can get there from the mansion's balcony.
5. After hitting both the green and golden switch, enter the right-most second floor door. It should be in the upper right corner.
6. In the top left corner of the Cable Room (the left-most second floor door). Yes, that huge, annoying room. Yeah, I hate it, too.

Lethal Lava Land:
1. On the top of the small tower to the right of Toad's base. You need the hover FLUDD.
2. Inside the Lava Wheel. Just wait for it.
3. In the Steps area, hover/rocket above the map sign.
4. At the base of the volcano, with all of the fire pillars. You'll probably die getting it, so make with the masochism and go for it.
5. Inside the volcano, when you escape the rising lava, in the center of the first ferris wheel.
6. Towards the end of the secret course, under a tilting log. Feel free to die or whatever.

Tall Tall Mountain:
1. Right under the first mushroom. Consider getting the FLUDD before getting this one. Or just jump to your death. Either way.
2. In the second screen, get to the highest point of the area. Get on the green platform and jump to the right at the end.
3. In the area with the wind and silver stars, rocket boost right above the rocket nozzle box.
4. Under the tree bridge in the final screen with the first shine. Use hover or rocket FLUDD to get.
5. From the beginning, walk left and jump off the ledge. Don't worry about getting back up, the wind will blow you back.
6. In the area where you get the third shine, when you would rocket boost to the right to get the shine, instead rocket boost to the left for the coin.

Rainbow Ride:
1. While riding on the second carpet of the first screen, you'll see the coin on top of some Bill Blasters. Hover there.
2. On the carpet ride leading to the Cruising Ship, it's behind some breakable bricks at the far right.
3. On the carpet ride to the Floating Mansion, right before you get there. It's right in your path.
4. In the red coin maze, rocket boost up the shaft next to the hover nozzle box.
5. In the ever-so-annoying secret course, get to the green platform with the Goomba on it. Jump onto the rotating triangle while riding said platform.
6. At the junction where you first get the hover FLUDD, go left. It's under a platform.

Shifting Sand Land:
1. Underneath that little platform past the oasis. Wait until you have hover, or just take one for the team.
2. Before you get the shine in the pyramid, walk past it to the right and drop down to the coin.
3. Take the sling star in the beginning and follow that path. Jump to the coin from the green platform at the end. Or just rocket boost onto the obelisk and get it from there.

Wet-Dry World:
1. Jump into the cannon in the beginning, and tilt it slightly to the right. The coin is up there.
2. Right below the first shine (at the top of the left area).
3. At the top of the Underwater City. You be able to reach it with a spin from the highest water level.

Tick Tock Clock:
1. On the second screen, next to where you get the hover FLUDD, jump up the rotating squares.
2. On the first screen, in that whole mess of pendulums at the top.
3. On the third screen, right above the first pendulum.

Storyline: (This is probably why you're here...)
1. Bowser's First Trap: When you get to the pipe leading to Bowser, jump off the left side instead. Use the hover FLUDD down there to fly to the coin.
2. Bowser's Second Trap: In the second screen, right before the sling star, get to it before the platform sinks too deeply.
3. Bowser's Castle: In the middle of the Hub room (where you need to get the keys), behind a metal fence. Get the invisibility star in the bottom right door and run all the way back to here.
4. Bowser's Castle: In the top right key room (Bowser's Lab). Revisit the castle once you've gotten the hover or turbo FLUDD and you should be able to get this coin easily.
5. Bowser's Castle: In the third screen of the space section, on top of some falling logs. Difficult to miss, really.

Castle Secret Star Courses: (...or for this, maybe...)
1. Secret of the Mushroom: Take the hard path. It should be next to a spinner on the left.
2. Tidal Isles: Underwater on the right side of the level. Activate the green platform and quickly swim underneath.
3. Secret of the Sky: At the bottom of the area towards the right. Ground pound against the wind to reach it.
4. Frosty Fludd: At the end, in the large turbo FLUDD jump. This may take a few tries. Try getting a running start with the turbo and jumping from the fifth flat block from the left.
5. Magma Maze: Get the rocket nozzle first, then make your way to the top right of the area. You'll know you're in the right place if you see two red Bill Blasters.

Castle Star Coins: (...and probably the last one here. Yeah.)
1. In the Snowman's Land painting room, enter a hidden passage in the right wall to find a star coin, and that toad's silly, silly friend.
2. In the Level Designer room, triple jump off of the platform with the paintings towards the right wall to enter a hidden passage.
3. Edge of the Mushroom Kingdom: (Note: You need 63 shines to access this level.) When you get the Wing Cap, just fly to it; it's in your path.
