first get a mini mushroom to put in the bottom half of your screen thge touch screen where you keep spare mushrooms and stuff.dont use your mini mushroom yet.... from the checkpoint at world6-1 you go through the grey bit like normal then kick off the wall like normal to get onto the raised bit then you go through the grey bit with the three flying turtles like normal then you will see a thing where it shoots bullets. dont go down like usual jump on a bullet and land on the platform ontop of the thing shooting bullets then hold down Y (it makes you go faster) whilst pressing forward and whilst still holding it down jump and you will land on the next platform. this is where the mini mushroom comes in. go forward abit and you will see a mini pipe press your mini mushroom and make yourself mini mario.then go down the pipe(you do that by standing in the slot next to the pipe and pressing the right key on the cross to the left of your ds) and you will find lots of coins bonus's and other stuff. when you come out you will find yourself on the same platform run to the edge of it then jump off the end and you will find yourself next to the finish flagpole.....definitley works cuz i discovered it lol
hope it helps
luv daisycow2
