Wing Mario Over the Rainbow (retitled Over the Rainbows in Super Mario 64 DS) is a secret course in Super Mario 64 in the 50-Star room with the entrances to Tick Tock Clock, Rainbow Ride, and Bowser in the Sky. It is accessible once the player has collected at least fifty stars. It is also one of the three secret levels in both games where Mario uses the Wing Cap to collect eight Red Coins and get a Power Star. The entrance to the level is found in a niche up the left wall on the third floor of Princess Peach's Castle, opposite of the entrance to Rainbow Ride. The level contains two platforms with a Cannon on each and four solid clouds, which are connected by rainbows. There are two clouds in which Mario can fly straight through (one of them containing a red coin only in the N64 version and the other containing a 1-Up Mushroom in both games). There are six red ! Blocks strategically placed around the level, making it easy for Mario to renew his flying power and fly from one cloud to another. This level is unique with the fact that if the player falls off, they return to the pond outside the castle, and the player does not lose a life. This may actually be a fate worse than losing a life as the player will have to climb all the way back up to the third floor to re-enter the level. There are Bob-omb Buddies in this level and Mario has to talk to the one on the lower cannon to open up both the cannons. This is the only secret level that features the use of cannons.
This course has two Power Stars, one of which is exclusive to the DS version.
8 Red Coins[]
Using the Wing Caps and cannons, Mario must fly around the level and collect eight Red Coins to make a Power Star appear at the Star Marker on the cloud that the player started on. The Red Coin locations are listed below.
Near the starting point.
On a small cloud connected by a Rainbow at the course's start.
Atop the highest Cloud with the vines growing from it.
Next to the previous Red Coin atop the highest Cloud with the vines growing from it.
Underneath the previous Red Coin. Climb the Vines and slide down from them to reach the Red Coin.
On the Cloud below the aforementioned highest cloud.
Black Brick (DS only)[]
A black brick can be found on one of the clouds. If Wario can get to the block (either by long jumping or by use of a cannon), he can break it to earn a Power Star.
Trivia[]
This course is only course in the DS version that doesn't have Luigi's Cap even when he's unlocked.
Via glitches it is revealed that Chief Chilly Challenge also doesn't have a Luigi Cap even when he's unlocked (most likely because he's the only character who's meant to enter that course).
