11.6Use the Copy feature!FOUNDR::MANSORTue Jan 28 1997 10:588
       Just a short note about my son's misfortune:
    
    	After compiling 118 stars (2 short of completing), his work was
    erased!.  While we were watching the Super Bowl, our 8 year-old
    neighbor went in and thought he had to clear Player A to start a new
    game. Ouch...
        Moral of the story...copy your Player A to either Player B, C or
    D as you go, maybe at the end of each night.

    I always play the last slots so guests will not accidentally erase
    them.
    
    By the way, you are not done with the game when you get 120 stars. 
    Other tasks include defeating Bowser the third time and getting all the
    coins in the game.

    re.  .7
    
     Thanks for the note...I'll pass that info about Bowser and the coins
    onto my son.
    
     By the way, with a day off from school yesterday he was able to grab
    70 stars, so he's well on his way back to where he was...
11.9Yellow BunnyASDG::NJOHNSONpawtuckaway pattieSun Feb 02 1997 08:436
    The salesman who sold me the Mario game said to look for the yellow
    bunny and try to catch him 3 times and "something" will happen.  We
    haven't come close to catching the wiley rabbit.  Can anyone help?
    
    thanks,
     nj

    Re .9:
    
    There's no trick to catching the rabbit.  Just keep trying.  It only
    appears two times, though, so I don't see how to catch it three times.
    
    
    Here's an update to the table of coins -- there are 136 in Shifting
    Sand Land:

    The way we caught the rabbit wsa by running and diving (B-button) at
    it.
    
    I agree with -1, in that we have only found it twice.
