"How Many Shines you got - THREAD"

So how many Shines you got so far?


I have got 0. because it hasn't arrived yet :-(

I've got about 98 so far. It's taking ages to get those annoying blue coins!

Okay I've spent 20 minutes running around Noki Bay on episode 6. I know every inch of this level like the back of my hand and I still can't find it. Tell me where it is!

I got 92 or 93 shines I think...

took me ages to get the shine from the pipe on the Island with the stranded bloke in the Plaza. First you have to go messing about with Yoshi and the boats to clear the goop covering the pipe, then you have to guide the leaf along the water to get all the coins... then if you miss any you have to walk along the really thin edge back to the start... bah, that took me ages to win.

That's what I did, I spent ages ar$ing around with those damn boats, managed to get one but kept crashing or failing to get in the boat when trying the 2nd.

I didn't say can someone give me a vague description of where the jet nozzle is, I said someone tell me where it is. Now tell me where it is..

Nope. Your guide is mistaken.

I have 20 coins on the Plaza and 10 on Corona mountain.

Not "think" there will be, not "read about them", I actually HAVE them.
It's on my scoresheet on my save file.

So there! :-P


I've got 118 shines now.
I went blue coin hunting on Noki bay and have managed to push the measly 14 up to 17! Wehey! :-)

Whitestripes, still looking for the jet nozzle?
I won't say exactly where it is, but so as to take out some of the tedium, look on mission 6 (it should be the Secret of the Shell).
Scale the cliffs and you'll come across it sooner or later.

I wish I've found it sooner...
I spent AGES trying to get the two blue coins (from the two circle graffiti's) using that stupid boat. It would've been so much faster and easier using that jet nozzle...

Anyway:
Bianco Hills - 27
Rico Harbour - 26
Gelato Beach - 30 (Wehey!)
Funpark level (forgot it's name) - 26
Hotel Level - 28
Noki Bay - 27
Pianta Village - 26.

Nearly done...

or not!
I swear, those blue coins are hidden really obsecurely.
it's a bit of a chore to find them all...

you have to use yoshi juice to get rid of the yellow stuff

On Delfin Plaza i have 31 shines and both the red box and grey box are both holigrams , how do i get these boxes????

Also on Delfino there are two wobbling yellow M like things covering blue coins ? can get through them or spray them away- Ideas??

Nice
