When you walk by it you can kinda see that it’s separate that’s how I figured it out

Bad aim with the canon

There's a visible seam on the wall there, and when you reach star 6 the title of the level is "BLAST AWAY THE WALL"

by watching youtube in 1996

>visible seam on the wall
Not on a 90s/early 2000s TV there wasn't. The quality of CRTs back then was all over the fucking place and minor issues like that were covered up by the garbage quality of TVs.

>Blast
Cannon
>Away
Use cannon
>The wall
Use cannon on reachable walls

2:02 time stamp retards, the game literally shows you in the credits that the star is hidden there. Another example of Mario 64 being genius, encouraging players to go back to collect more stars after the ending

Well I played this game in 1999, and I noticed it

I saw the seam on a 32" CRT and thats why I shot Mario at it.

Yes there were dumbass, just because you have shit perception doesn't mean it's the TV's fault

There's not that many walls the cannon can point to. You should be able to figure it out eventually by shooting yourself over and over.

Honestly? By accident

Bomberman 64 did the same thing in its credits. It completely blew my mind that you could make a staircase of bombs.

>use cannon to destroy (thing)
It was pretty obvious given that there's only a few things legitimately worth aiming at.

i think i saw it done by a friend once or maybe just pure coincidence. the one that really got me was the hidden wall in tall tall mountain. had to look that up on internet

People who are pretending this star isn't cryptic are being silly. This one of my favorite games and this one is still extremely missable, and you're most likely to get it is by playing around (assuming that you don't know it).

I didn't catch this and never experimented with bomb staircases, so I never got the good ending. Following that one shitty "official" guide didn't help either.

no, that flickering white line was visible on garbage displays

I have the strategy guide

I hit the left wall first by accident but it was empty so I aimed to the other one.

I honestly don’t remember. I was a kid when I beat that game so it was def before I got on the internet where guides are and I had no friends who played the game.

Best case was this IIRC

This. I kind of miss strategy guides, but I'm also glad I can just go to gamefaqs or youtube without paying a dime now.

Nice try user. I'm not going to spoonfeed you.

The hitbox is huge and there's only so many walls you can hit from the cannon placement. Five-year olds figured this out.

It shows you in the credits. Literally the only star the game shoves right in your face. No kid is going to watch the game credits and not notice the giant yellow star pan past their screen and not figure it out

I didn't

>blast away the wall
>hmmm the only thing mario can use to blast shit is the grabbable black bobombs
>none in the area and if there was any, cant bring them to any of the walls of the fortress fast enough anyway
>fuck around and eventually fall into a hole
>oh shit its a cannon what wall do I blast away with it?
>oh it just shoots mario himself as a projectile
>oh well fuck it may as well cannonball into the shit near me until it works
love me bait threads

Not everyone was as retarded and near sighted as the strawman you are roleplaying as in this bait thread
Its always fucking sm64 with the same fucking 'how were you supposed to know' baits

No one ever says shit that can actually be conceivably cryptic like freezing zombies and only zombies with the sun song in oot

honestly, I don't remember. I just remember finding it

same with the four pillars in the desert

>find cannon
>can only shoot self towards like 2 or 3 walls and level has no black bobombs which never did that anyway
O, MY BAIT THREAD

I actually got it by accident
When running up the level I fell off and collected the star.
I didn’t think much about it until I found out it was well known glitch later on
