So.. how many has everyone here got? And which ones? Try to keep to hints, please, and try to put everything important behind spoiler tags. For instance, okay to say "I've got item 1, 2 and 3" (which I do), but if you wanna say /where/ these items are, spoiler tag, please. Then, those who wanna find it on their own can do so, ya know?
Anyways. Item one:
Hint:
You always wanted him to do something with this room. This one, at least, is pretty safe to get.
Location:
The game over room! Also, once you acquire the item, it creates a save immediately, so you don't need to get to the save point to still have it.
Far as I know, all the items past this point require a room that's actually pretty difficult and new. They're not easy to obtain... but then again, what in this game is easy?
Item two:
Hint:
Head towards Mecha birdo, you'll see it.
Location:
Once you get to the moon revealing the path to mecha birdo, jump to the area past it before you fall. You'll find your bounty here.
Item 3:
Hint:
Location:
Take the path after Mother Brain towards the teleporter to the mine cart ride. On your way there, after the snakey appearing brick room, you'll get to a set of wall jumps and spikes and moving platforms.. and couches. Hold jump while being propelled up and you'll be propelled even higher, into a new room containing your bounty. This will take some difficult timing, but it is indeed possible.
I don't have item 4-6 yet. I'm looking for hints to their general areas, so I know where to look. Actually locating them I doubt will be hard once I know where I'm supposed to look. I did a quick run through of the game. I checked the mine cart ride and the labyrinth, but found nothing. Checked /every/ exit, too. Far as I can gather, the other 3 are probably in the main section of the game. Where, however, I don't know. Just hope it's not in an area you can only access before beating the bosses, like the Metroid area or Castlevania area.
EDIT:
All 6 items have been found! Remaining 3 as follows.
Item 4:
Hint:
You'll need to start a new game to get this one, because it's in an area that seals after beating the boss. Don't worry, items are seperate saves which you gain credit for on all save files and even new games.
Location:
There's really only two areas that seal. The one in question is the mother brain area. Get to the first room in this area, and then just wait for a minute or so. An enemy will pop out of the wall. Go through the area it came out of. This area is difficult, but possible. Shoot the enemies to freeze them in place to use them as platforms.
Item 5: This item, by the way, is glitched in older builds. Make sure you have the proper game if you want this item.
Hint:
It involves falling ceilings and being underground
Location:
It's in the kirby area, right after you get past the rolling spikes and are underground. DON'T SAVE at this part. Because when you reload, the walls will reform, and you'll have to restart the entire area to get to it again. You need to get past the rolling spikes and also get to the other side in one go.
Item 6:
Hint:
It's hidden within the fortress of the guy, somewhere, you've already found the other 5, this is the only place left.
Location:
Specifically, it's found right before the final tower of the guy. You'll notice some cracks in the wall on your way over. You need to get at them from the other side by falling down one of the falling blocks and jumping off at the right time. Simply get on your floating platform from there, and enjoy the eggplants.
And there we have it! Enjoy the hunt, or enjoy the platforming difficulty alone, your choice!
