by the way why am I not seeing more people talking about the fact that Nintendo styled an entire world on Slurms MacKenzie

I'm missing one moon in the deep woods. I assume it has something to do with the coins in the river but I can't figure it out.

In Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga you ran into a race of snail people that lived in woods that produced soda for the rest of the kingdom.

I figured these were either the same snails or a direct homage to them.

See if there's anything you can capture nearby to use near the coins.

I learned from the map pamphlet thing that the people of New Donk are not humans, but New Donkians

so it's cool, it's fine everybody, crisis averted

The guys making the soda were (french) beanpeople though, not snails?

So I have three purple coins missing in the Sand Kingdom, how am I supposed to access the 8-bit section in the inverted pyramid once it's floating?

So towards the beginning of the Luncheon Kingdom there's apparently a moon buried under some yellow rocks but there aren't any Hammer Bros to capture nearby. Do you need to grab one from later in the world and backtrack all the way there or is there another way to get to it?

That there's forty zillion moons and you can literally buy them in postgame to fill out unlock requirements seems to suggest that Nintendo fully expects only total maniacs to actually try to 100% the game, and has let the ravenous monsters off the leash to design some fiendishly difficult moons.

I was told the moons you can buy after the initial moon in every kingdom don’t count towards everything the total moon count unlocks. I feel like this person is full of poo poo but can anyone deconfirm

e: Actually, another question about Luncheon Kingdom. There's a Moon up on top of one of the high points, but I don't see any way of getting back up there. It's where there's a Hint Art on one side. If you go around to the right of that, you might be able to get up with some wall jumping and cap tricks? Is there another, more obvious way though? Is there a bird dude I can capture in that world and glide to it or something?

I don't know if this is the same moon, but if it's the island-place with a cheese rock on the backside (with the set of stairs right by the Hammer Bros, just past the plaza), I got up there by capturing a Hammer Bro, going around the back, jumping off the blue rock on the back, cap out of the Bro, wall jump into hat throw+jump and land. A moon up there and also the second golden turnip.

You need to think creatively. There's a very simple way to get up there with no jump tricks or anything.

Just use a lava bubble. Shoot over it with one of the cannons and untransform in midair so you fall right down on top.

Is there a reason to (500+ moons spoiler) do stuff on the Darker Side like kill the UFO at the very beginning?
I noticed I could just rush right past that area, and there's only one star on the list for that kingdom, so I don't think it would give me a moon. Actually, should I be keeping an eye out for any secrets there or should I just concentrate on surviving?

Beating that enemy gives you a super heart which is helpful for that first section.

Has anyone solved the hint art that looks like the word KEEP? This is the only Moon I don't have, and I'm completely stumped.

That post-game broodal fight is easy to cheese.
You can leave the boss rush anytime and replenish your hearts with the 6 heart power up outside. Throw cappy at one of the fruit stems right next to the entrance. I found that out by accident because I fudged one of the fights so badly that I was hoping to reset.

I wish I knew this sooner... Oh well.

Does buying moons from the shops affect the moon count found in the overworld? I kind of don't want to mess myself up by buying moons and missing out on moons found in the overworld.
