It figures Luigi would be giving out so many coins, seeing as he owns two mansions.

My moon kingdom balloon is too good I guess because the icon for it just got bigger on the balloon world stats screen


Full disclosure though: I spent and embarrassing number of attempts trying to get to the top of the bell tower because I just assumed that's where you hid it. The way the light shines on the bell during the approach definitely makes it look that way.



Once I got all the way up there and it WASN'T there it was pretty trivial to find though.

I'm curious how many of the 900 coins I wasted on it you'll receive.

Nice, surprised that you get 40 seconds though. I guess the coin rings give more time than I thought

I think the finder always has a certain percentage more seconds to find the balloon than the dude that hid it. If you take the full 30 seconds to hide a balloon than whoever is searching for it gets 40 seconds. The coins don't factor into the time you're given at all, just a bonus during the hunt.

Makes very few moons actually difficult to get in the allotted time once you actually know where they are.

One cool thing I found out completely on accident that everyone else probably already knew, the pools in Bowser's Kingdom aren't actually surrounded by glass walls.

I found this out by accident when I was doing the koopa races, it's pretty cool. This game was so good.

So many coins lol. I think the last 2 hide it stars are going to take a while to get though.

Can't you only hold 9999 or did they change that with the Luigi addition?

You can still only hold 9999 but I've bought everything in the game so I'm just letting it sit there

I've found hiding the balloons inside of a destructible object gives people fits. I hid one inside the rock wall in Wooded Kingdom that hasn't been found yet.

New Donk is broken basically cause you can clip OOB and then place a balloon there, and 90% of people who hide balloons there use that trick.

EE I'm just gonna assume your balloon in Metro is a dirty glitch balloon because the arrow/distance makes no sense and it's not visible anywhere.

I don't know how to place glitchy balloons but I also don't remember where I put that one last time, it's been a few days. Post a pic of the arrow/distance and I bet I could tell you where it is...but probably won't

its fun and pretty addicting and i got enough coins to get the skeleton and sunglasses in one session of messing around. its not exactly a "daily" thing but the fact the baloons get popped gives you a reason to boot it up and play a little more often which is cool
