The “Countdown to Drop Down” stage in Super Mario Bros. Wonder tasks players with getting the stage’s Wonder Flower in an unconventional way that requires knowing an old Mario trick.
Here’s our guide on how to get the Wonder Flower in Countdown to Drop Down.
How to reach the Wonder Flower in Countdown to Drop Down in Super Mario Bros. Wonder
When you reach the area that has the Wonder Flower in “Countdown to Drop Down” in Super Mario Bros. Wonder, you may try being able to jump to the Wonder Flower like I did, or simply sit there while the Lakitu above drops Spinies onto you from above and forgetting about that until it’s too late. Oh that’s right, we can use the Lakitu!
To be able to get the Wonder Flower in “Countdown to Drop Down,” you’re going to need to use the Lakitu’s cloud. This is a trick that goes back decades of Mario history.
First, you’re going to need to jump on the Lakitu’s head to get it out of its cloud. Doing this can be a bit tricky, but it can be made easier with some badges or power-ups. Just jump from the highest point possible, which will be the platform that moves with you as you enter the area, and hop onto Lakitu’s head. You should be able to hit it.
After you do this, all you have to do is jump into the Lakitu’s cloud and then move down to get the Wonder Flower in “Countdown to Drop Down.”
