Two part members in one chapter, Bombette is Mario's new party member, and she can blow up cracks in the walls, making our exploration through Koopa Bros. Fortress easier. When we get up there, we come across some Bullet Bills, and eventually go up against the Koopa Bros., who have a special trick for that fight.

As for the rest of the description, I recommend watching the full video before reading past this point of the description

Time to continue on with Koopa Bros. Fortress and see what places we couldn't otherwise access now that Bombette is a new party member. To get the Fortress Key, in the room before the stairs, it is locked behind bars, use Bombette to destroy the cracked wall to get it, in the same room, you can get the Power Bounce badge, this allows Mario to jump on one enemy continuously, it is a great badge to equip in most fights. The next room is the same room, but at a higher level, and you will want to make use of Kooper to hit the switches, and the next room has a switch which you can hit to lower the stairs, and it leads to a crack in the wall, which you can use Bombette to blow up and get a Fortress Key, and in the next room you can raise the stairs, causing the Koopa Troopas to panic while the stairs are rising. When you go up, you can pick up Smash Charge, this charges up the power of Mario's Hammer, and it does stack for each use.
When you get to the top, time to deal with Bullet Bills, I do like how the music that plays is a remix of the Airship Theme from Super Mario Bros. 3, and behind a breakable rock is a block that contains a Maple Syrup, which heals 10 FP. Going over Bullet Bills, they have low HP, but they can really hurt when they attack, and at the end are Bill Blasters, which have 1 Defense, and they don't attack, they usually fire Bullet Bills, you can use Bombette's Bomb to defeat a Bill Blaster in one hit, this can be a good place to grind Star Points by fighting the Bullet Bills. There is a Save Block and a Heart Block, which you can use if you want to save and to heal.
The next room is a fight against... is that meant to be Bowser? In battle, the boss is called "Bowser???", it turns out to be a costume made by the Koopa Bros. and they are controlling it, it has 1 Attack point, use Hammer and Bombette's Body Slam to deal some damage to it, and there is some really funny dialogue in that fight where one of the Koopa Bros. break the fourth wall where they say that the sequel should be called "Paper Bowser." The theme song is Trojan Bowser, and this is not a difficult fight, it has 10 HP, and after defeating it, you then have to fight the Koopa Bros., they are called Ninjakoopas, which is a reference to Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, they form a tower, and they deal 4 damage when they use their Ninjakoopa Special, and the attacks weakens when you defeat one of them, use Bombette's Bomb to knock them down, and you can use Hammer to make them unstable, and the next attack can knock them down. When the Koopa Bros. are knocked down, they act like regular Koopa Troopas where they can be flipped over, you can end this fight right away if you have a POW Block and a Fire Flower.
With the Koopa Bros. down, we then rescue Eldstar, the first Star Spirit, which the Koopa Bros. were guarding, and there are six more left to rescue.
