Wario World/Mirror Mansion

After you fall down here (in front of three open doors), head to the right to grab a Red Crystal and a Heart Piece Container.

Red Crystal Door #?
This is another suspended jumping area, with 8 spinning groups of platforms, and three groups of moving spiked balls forward and to the right of the start area. The red crystal is located straight forward from the starting area, and there's a heart piece container in the center of the room; the number of coins in this area is minimal, so don't even look at them. To reach both, you'll have to go around the entire room (head to the red crystal first, then make your way to the center of the room).

The rotating groups of blocks spin in opposite directions of one another, but together they move counter clockwise. It's easiest to just stay on the brown platforms and head with the flow of the blocks, dodging the spikes when need be. Alternatively you can go the opposite way, hopping repeatedly to avoid the blue blocks' desire to fall. When you get to the other side you need to watch out for the platform that moves between the center and the rotating groups - if it moves away from you when you jump, you might get screwed!

Making your way from the center to the red crystal is a snap - just a few hops and you're free!

Heart Piece Container #5
When you come out of the double door for Red Crystal number ??, head up the ladder nearby (make note of the blue W on the ground). Head to the left and climb on the mesh to the left, but don't go downwards when it turns yet; there's a spiked ball that moves along this path. Unlike other mesh areas, this spiked ball cannot be avoided by just climbing - you'll have to jump to the left, hold and make sure you grab the mesh again away from the spiked ball.

If you've done it correctly, you can wiggle your way to the left and snag the last heart piece container!

Treasure #5: Light Blue
Back at the three open doors in the background (where you fell), head to the left. Fall down where you can see the two party balls on the wall, then quickly hop down another level to avoid two bat carrying enemies. Punch the lion and then grab on to its tail before it gets away!

The first thing you'll come across is a small platform closest to the camera (you, the player). Hop on the platform (if you miss it, just keep riding the lion until it turns around) and destroy the chest to get the 5th treasure piece (light blue): the Bronze Mirror.

Treasure #6: Dark Blue
Quickly hop back on the lion, or wait for it to pass again. You will want to ride this to the far left of this spiked area to hit the dark blue W switch on the wall (when you hop off the lion, jump on the small platform below the switch so you don't fall on the spikes). If you happen to ride the lion's tail when it's turning around at the far left, press to see the door for Red Crystal #?? coming up.

Ride the lion back to the right, climb back up and past the three doors, punch and jump on the mechanical lion and head back to the double door that had Red Crystal #??. If you remembered, you'll see the chest close by where you saw the W on the ground before; this one holds the Gold Clock.

Treasure #4: Teal
As long as you hit the switch for this one (in the first area of the level), acquiring this piece of treasure is a cinch. Head back to the left (ride the lion once more) and climb up the party balls to safety. Head to the left, jump up the platform and climb the party balls to the right and above. Make your way right and drop down to find the teal treasure chest that contains the Stained Glass. This area is swarming with spooky birds, so either run fast or beat them down before they can cause you any trouble.

Red Crystal Door #??
Head back to the left and climb up the platform where you can see mirrors in the background. Head left, staying closest to the camera, until you fall down a hole (the one you may have seen from the lion). Butt stomp your way inside and complete the puzzle quickly.

All you have to do is jump across the room four times. Dash jump across each time so you can hit the levers; first in the center, then farthest from the camera, then closest. The red crystal will appear in the upper far left corner of the room, so leap once more, then fall down and use the trampoline in the center.

Climb up the ladder and make your way left in front of the mirrors. Avoid the enemies that only appear in the mirror until you reach the spin dial. Either attack and use an enemy or pick up one of the stone Wario heads around the room to complete the job. After maxing out the spinner, head to the left where you can see the lower broken pillar with the single party ball. Climb up it, jump on top, then leap to the left through the gate before it closes.

Use the onion dispenser in the corner if need be, then hop down the hole to the final area. Here you'll see a blimp in the background, and every once in a while it will fire out enemies that land nearby to attack you.

Red Crystal Door #??
Head to the right of the blimp and you'll see the pink W on the floor and a glowing reinforced door. Grab one of the enemies shot by the blimp and slam them through the door.

Another suspended puzzle, this one is quite fun and a little difficult at first. Head forward and hop on the party ball. As it fires itself out, you will want to jump so that the momentum transfers to Wario and sends him flying. Basically, just press jump when the ball is moving and isn't at the end yet. It's best to hang on and let it fire out a few times so you can see the timing first.

As with all the motion in this game, you can increase the distance Wario flies by holding the control stick in the direction you want to fly. In the same manner it's possible to decrease his flight by pressing the control stick in the opposite direction of where he is moving.

For the first ball, you don't need to do anything except jump and press the control stick forward or back a little bit. You know you've timed your jump superbly if you end up reaching the platform high above the one with the second ball (if you can't reach it, don't worry, it only has two large coins).

For the second ball, hop on, then press. You'll see the platform straight ahead - that's your target. Although the ball's motion is an arc, you don't have to do anything special, just time your jump correctly and adjust your speed accordingly.

For the third and final ball, stand on the edge until Wario attaches himself to the party ball. When you're ready jump, the only thing you want to do after letting go is holding back on the control stick or you'll end up flying over the edge of the platform.

Treasure #8: Pink
After getting the 8th Red Crystal, head left out of the door and across the platforms. Kill the monster wall hanging, then continue left up the two party balls (past the falling breakable block). When you get to the gap with mirrors in the background, you're going to want to hop across the top platforms to reach the pink button. If you fall to the lower area, the only way to get back up to the top to access the pink switch is by jumping into one of the gaps in the floor.

The easiest way to grab this treasure is to just book it to the left, hit the switch and continue back to the right to the treasure chest without stopping for anything. If you get hit by one of the zepplin's exploding cannonballs, you'll probably fall down and have to leap into Unithorn's Lair to get back up.

When you reach the far right are again, you'll be able to acquire the final piece of treasure in this level: the Crazy Glasses.

Head back to the left and just hop your way to the stone statue blocking access to the boss (when you reach the bat carrying enemy, hop to the left behind the wall and use the party balls to get to safety). The platform with the entrance to the boss has no enemies on it. If you need health you can hop down to the left and fill up via the garlic dispenser (to get back up the party balls, hold until you think Wario is at the top of the ball, then jump while still holding ; it's tough, but possible!). When ready, head into the boss area.

Red Crystal door #8
The final Red Crystal door is to the left of the boss door, down next to the garlic dispenser.

Boss: Mean Emcee
Mean Emcee's difficulty is only high because chance comes into play when he's at low health. Before the battle starts, Wario will wake up the Emcee as he approaches. Three large cups with a hand over each will be sitting behind him.

When the battle begins, Emcee will move off to the left - run up and beat him until he starts begins to glow and make noise. When this happens, run! He will spin towards you while swinging his cane and he will be invincible - a deadly combo. When he comes back, run up and hit him until he retreats into one of the cups. Stop moving and watch the cups!

As the cups move, keep your eye on the one that he was in. When the cups stop, run up to the one you think he was in and smack it. If you were correct, the cup will rise up and do nothing - jump and punch it again; Mean Emcee will fall out stunned, enabling you to toss him over the edge.

Repeat this process until he dies, but know that if you guess incorrectly when dealing with the cups, monsters will spawn. Also, when Emcee is at low health, the cups will move blindingly fast and your best bet on finding him is to hold on tightly to your four leaf clover (don't have one? Just hit a cup and continue to fight!).
