New Super Mario Bros. Wii/World 2-2

Normal Strategy
This level introduces the Spike, an annoying enemy. Spikes will regurgitate up spiked balls and throw them at Mario. This level is still manageable, though it is hard to get all three star coins in one run.

Star Coin Strategy

 * Star Coin #1: Right before the midpoint flag there is a deep pool of quicksand. Go down all the way, hitting the P-Switch and getting the coins, and then hit the "?" switch and ride the platforms up to the star coin.
 * Star Coin #2: There is a point with several bricks, a moving platform, and a spike. Hit the leftmost brick to reveal a vine. Climb it, and use the POW block to drop the star coin down.
 * Star Coin #3: Where you land from the sky in the second star coin, go to the left to access a pipe with a mini mushroom. Go out, and go to the right and enter the pipe for the last star coin.
