Tips for maxing out high scores in New Super Mario Bros series

You wanna up those numbers? Focus on coin collection and time remaining. Always wear your power-ups to the flagpole for that score multiplier. Koopa bouncing? Essential. And don’t forget about secret exits—they can lead to coin-rich areas. Chain those jumps and keep a sharp eye on patterns.

Ace tips! Definitely hammer on the point about chaining jumps — it's an art form. You might wanna try slaying ghost houses without taking damage, that'll seriously pump your score. And hey, don’t skip those challenging levels. Master them, and loop a few times; you'll notice power-ups tend to repeat giving ya max benefit.

Don't forget star coins! Those things can be major score boosters. Also, if you're replaying levels, try to find every hidden 1-up and secret area. Those add up!

Yoshi can be ur best friend for max scores, remember his flutter jump gets u places and can keep that jump chain going. Oh, and get to know secret exit locations by heart, saves time and opens direct routes to those sweet, sweet coin heavens!

Let's talk points strategy; pure efficiency is key. Consider this: the faster you clear a level, the higher your time bonus—so practice your speedrunning. It's not just about collecting coins, it’s about collecting them QUICKLY. Memorize the fastest routes and avoid anything that could slow you down, like unnecessary fights. If you ain't speedrunning, you ain't maxing scores.

Back in the day, it was all about the points. These days it seems like it’s all about speedruns and completions. But for those true old-school vibes, it’s all about hitting everything. Those breakable blocks? Hit em. Hitting blocks from below multiple times? Points on points. It's grindy but gives u that arcade feel.

Here's a somewhat obvious but sometimes overlooked tip: Coin Rush mode, ppl! If your game's got it, it's literally a gold mine. Each coin scores way higher, and if you're using a Gold Flower, Ka-Ching! Big scores! Make sure your inventory's stocked.

Anyone else got a love for racking up fire flower hit points? Like, get the fire flower early and use it to blast every possible enemy. The coins are great, but let’s not ignore the pure satisfaction (and points!) of a perfectly-timed goomba roast.
