OK, so I've got a holiday coming up so I decided to start a project for Super Mario 64. The basic idea is to start a new game and complete it with as few stars as possible, while also collecting every coin in all the courses. That includes using the three infinite coin glitches to get 255 coins in Snowman's Land, Tiny-Huge Island and Wet-Dry World. I'll update this topic with my progress regularly, blog-style, and at the end I'll make a highlight video.
So far I've got 3 stars and I've got all the coins in Whomp's Fortress. I tried to get all the coins in Jolly Roger Bay, until I realised that you can't get the last two red coins without raising the sunken ship or opening the cannon , and of course the pink bob-omb doesn't appear until later stars. Sucks!
Wish me luck for the rest of my mission!

Australia for a month. I hope I manage to do it before I go away. Oh and if I manage to get all the coins, I'll be only the second person known to have done it.

Sounds like fun apart from, i've only got an emulator so if i spent the (est.) 250 hours it would take for me to do this, in the end, it would be a waste of time.......
Im still working on reducing the number of stars from 15 down to 8 though, ive done it with gs, i reckon i can do it, only one more obstacle to tackle.

 With help from the gs... I tried a bit more this morning and i'm not sure it will work anymore, seeing as glitching through the locked doors wont work because of loading points, we need a reliable way to glitch through the stars doors without an object, it is impossible to complete the game without facing both bowsers |

Update on the state of things:  As you can see, I managed to get all the coins on Cool, Cool, Mountain, which was a bugger because the spindrifts at the very bottom of the level kept dropping their coins off the mountain before I could grab them. It took me around 5 tries before I got them. You'll also notice that I haven't yet gone for the Bob-Om Battlefield coins, I'm debating as to whether I should go for it capless, or come back after I have 10 stars and get it with the wing cap. What do you think? |

Have you worked out the minimum stars total?
I think If you were able to get BoB 100 coins first then you could get one more star (PSS maybe) get bowser and the key and get the 100 coin stars in SSS and HMC (whilst also getting all the coins) which would make 10 total, from here do BBH (get all the coins and the 100 coin star) then get the first 4 stars in LLL to get the shell, get all the coins in LLL with the shell, you'll also have 15 stars at this point, from here, using the MIPS glitch i don't think youll have to get any more stars, unless im mistaken

I will, I'm planning on getting every coin in the game. So I'll need at least one star from ever level after I beat the second bowser.

Not unless you can get through the second Bowser door with less than 15 stars.  |
