We will show you where to find all 7 Sparkle Gems, how to get the Ribbon of the Ribboner, how to protect the Theets during the flight and chase, and where to find the 3 Ninja Theets after the main story is completed.
Locations of the Sparkle Gems
In Mission Spectacular Rescue you can find a total of 7 Sparkle Gems. Already during the first flight section you have to save all Theets and protect the professor’s spaceship as best as possible.
Later, a huge UFO tracks Princess Peach and her companions across a road. Throw the vehicles around on the spaceship and make sure that none of the three sparkles are sucked in.
| # | Location |
|---|---|
| 1 | During the flight to the alien planet, several Theets are in danger. Destroy all UFOs that attack a spaceship or hijack a Sparkla. Also remove the aliens who cling to the ships. If you save all Theets, you get the first Sparkle Gem. |
| 2 | At the end of the flight section, you face a large UFO with two powerful arms. Protect the professor’s spaceship and defeat the enemy before all its energy is lost. For this you will receive the second Sparkle Gem. |
| 3 | The third Sparkle Gem is also part of the fight against the large arm UFO. The professor’s spaceship must have at least three hearts after the victory. Therefore, quickly destroy the smaller UFOs and do not let unnecessary attacks get through. |
| 4 | After landing on the planet, you first defeat the aliens. Then lift the large bus or the vehicle in this area. Underneath it, a pose spot sparkles. Pose there and destroy both UFOs in the secret room before abducting a Sparkla. Then the fourth Sparkle Gem appears. |
| 5 | During the chase across the road you have to throw several buses and other vehicles at the large UFO. Does not immediately lift the next vehicle approximately in the middle part of the route. Behind or next to him is the fifth Sparkle Gem on a small platform. |
| 6 | Protect all three Theets throughout the chase. The UFO regularly tries to capture them with its pull. Swiftly ship the vehicles back onto the spaceship to push it back. When all three Theets reach the end of the road, you get the sixth Sparkle Gem. |
| 7 | At the end of the play, the alien spaceship turns into a giant combat UFO. Defend his blows, approach the opponent and defeat him in the final duel of strength. For the victory you will receive the seventh Sparkle Gem. |
Location of the ribbon
The ribbon can already be found during the first flight section. The ribboner is kidnapped by a round UFO and clings to it.
During the flight, pay attention to his call for help. Fly to the UFO and attack it several times before it leaves the screen. Once you have destroyed the spaceship, the Ribboner is saved.
As a reward you will receive the superheroin-Ribbon for Stella.
| Rewards | Location | Task |
|---|---|---|
| Superhero Ribbon | During the first flight segment | Destroy the UFO that the kidnapped ribboner is holding onto. |
The Flight to the Alien Planet
In the beginning, superhero Princess Peach flies together with the professor and several Theets through space. The section expires automatically. You can move Princess Peach freely across the screen and attack with her super powers.
Saving the Theets
Several types of enemies attack the fleet. Some UFOs shoot at the spaceships, others try to kidnap Theets. In addition, small aliens cling to the ships.
| Danger | Procedure |
|---|---|
| UFO attacks a spaceship | Fly immediately to the opponent and attack him several times. |
| Sparkla is kidnapped | Destroy the UFO before leaving the screen with the prisoner. |
| Aliens Hanging on a Ship | Touch or strike the enemy to remove him from the spaceship. |
| Asteroids | Avoid them or destroy them in time with Princess Peach’s attack. |
For the first Sparkle Gem you have to save every Sparkla. Therefore, stay as far as possible in the middle of the screen. From there you reach both the upper and lower half quickly.
Pay attention to the ribboner
The Ribboner appears relatively late during the flight. He is attached to an enemy UFO and can easily be overlooked between the remaining enemies.
Pay attention to his call for help and focus your attacks immediately on his UFO. Track the spaceship to the edge of the screen if it moves away from Princess Peach.
Protecting the Professor’s Spaceship
The professor’s ship has its own heart indicator. For both Sparkle Gems from the subsequent fight, at least three hearts must be left at the end.
Therefore, regularly fly back to the professor and remove all enemies who attack his spaceship. The rest of the Theets can wait for a moment as long as they are not kidnapped.
Fighting the Arm UFO
Shortly before landing, a large spaceship with two arms blocks the way. In addition, several smaller UFOs appear.
Destroying the small UFOs
First eliminates opponents who attack the professor’s ship. The longer the small UFOs remain on the screen, the harder it will be to hold the heart indicator above three.
Then fly to the big spaceship and attack his arms or his body.
Countering the fist stroke
The arm UFO regularly fetches out to a big punch. Wait until the attack is immediately before Princess Peach and strike back at the right moment.
Superhero Princess Peach stops the fist and can grab the entire UFO. Then slip the enemy away from you with full force.
| Boss action | Reaction |
|---|---|
| UFO gets out with your fist | Wait for the attack and press the attack button just before the hit. |
| Princess Peach holds his fist | Follow the hidden input and build up power. |
| UFO is defenseless | Sling it away from the fleet and hit as many enemies as possible. |
| Small UFOs appear | Destroy the opponents near the professor first. |
For the second Sparkle Gem, the professor ship must not lose all its energy. For the third crystal, at least three hearts must be left.
The rescue mission on the planet
After landing, three Theets accompany Princess Peach in the search for the abducted scientists.
Defeat the first enemy group
Several aliens try to capture the three Theets with their rays. Attack the opponents immediately and throw them against each other.
Large opponents may have to be hit several times. You can grab smaller aliens and use them as a bullet against their allies.
Hidden pose location under the vehicle
After the fight, there is a large vehicle in the area. Raise it with superhero Princess Peach’s power and throw it aside.
A sparkling pose spot appears underneath the vehicle. Press ZL or ZR there to enter the secret room.
In the bonus area, two UFOs attack several Theets. Destroy both ships before one of the prisoners is kidnapped. As a reward appears the fourth Sparkle Gem.
Second pose location
In the next area, another vehicle stands in front of a non-luminous street lamp. Ship the vehicle away and examine the ground under or next to the lantern.
There is another pose location. The secret room contains coins, but no Sparkle Gem.
| # | Location | Rewards |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Under the large vehicle immediately after landing | Fourth Sparkle Gem |
| 2 | Under the dark streetlight behind another vehicle | Coins |
Escape from the giant UFO
On the wide road, the large alien spaceship appears again. It flies behind Princess Peach and the three Theets and tries to suck in parts of the road as well as the companions.
Throw vehicles at the UFO
Both lanes have buses and other large vehicles. Run to them, lift them and throw them back at the UFO.
Every hit pushes the spaceship back. If possible, ship every available vehicle so that the suction does not reach the radio.
| Situation | Procedure |
|---|---|
| UFO is getting closer | Raise the next vehicle immediately and throw it to the rear. |
| Sparkla is sucked in | Hit the UFO quickly with a vehicle before the Sparkla disappears. |
| Vehicle blocks the path | Raise it instead of walking past it on the outside. |
| Big bus at the end | Throw him onto the UFO to temporarily end the chase. |
Do not overlook the fifth Sparkle Gem
The fifth Sparkle Gem lies behind one of the large vehicles during the chase. Raises approximately the third vehicle and briefly looks at the small platform behind it.
Collect the crystal before you throw the vehicle at the UFO. Since the camera is constantly moving, you can not return to this place later.
Protect all Theets
For the sixth Sparkle Gem, all three Theets must safely reach the end of the road.
Do not stay too long when collecting coins. The protection of companions is more important. Ship the vehicles as early as possible before the UFO appears directly behind the group.
In the end, a particularly large bus blocks the way. Raise it and throw it at full force on the spaceship. Then you will receive the sixth Sparkle Gem, if all three companions have been saved.
Free the captive scientists
After fleeing, the group reaches the alien base. Six scientists are held in a large cage.
Before you can open the prison, several enemies appear in two waves.
First wave of opponents
Attack the little aliens first. Pick up a defeated opponent and throw him into the next group.
You should quickly eliminate enemies with jets, as they can attack the three Theets and Princess Peach at a distance.
Second opponent wave
The second group consists of more opponents and an alien who wants to carry a Sparkla away.
First, focus on the kidnapper. Then defeat the remaining opponents and open the cage.
Once all the scientists are free, the professor’s spaceships return. However, the great UFO appears again and turns into its final form.
Boss fight against the huge fighter UFO
The rescued scientists reinforce superhero Princess Peach. It grows to the size of the UFO and faces the opponent in a tremendous duel of strength.
Avoiding and countering strikes
The giant UFO alternately strikes its two fists at Princess Peach. Approach slowly and remain attentive.
Wait until the fist appears immediately before Princess Peach. Then press the faded attack button to ward off the blow with its own blow.
| Boss action | Reaction |
|---|---|
| Left or right hand punch | Counter only shortly before the hit with Princess Peach’s own fist. |
| Both fists in succession | Defend each strike individually and then run forward. |
| Princess Peach reaches the boss | Grab the UFO and follow the faded input. |
| UFO is thrown | Prepare for his final rush. |
Grabbing and Throwing UFO
If you have approached far enough, Princess Peach can pack the spaceship. Follow the sign and throw it behind you.
However, the boss is not yet completely defeated. He turns around and starts a last, especially fast rush.
Stop the Last Rush
Press the faded button as soon as the UFO reaches Princess Peach. She stops the entire spaceship with both hands.
A further time display then appears. Wait until the circle has completely contracted and lights up. Then press the attack button again.
Superhero Princess Peach throws the UFO far into space, where it finally explodes. You will receive the seventh Sparkle Gem and complete the play.
After Completion: Find the 3 Ninja Theets
After completing the main story, you can re-enter the play to find the hidden Ninja Theets. In the Spectacular Rescue mission, three Theet are hidden.
During the first flight section, there is still no Theet. The first one appears immediately after landing on the planet.
| # | Location |
|---|---|
| 1 | The first Theet is located immediately after landing. Turn around or investigate the area immediately behind Princess Peach before defeating the first aliens. |
| 2 | The second Theet waits immediately after the chase with the huge UFO. Once you have thrown the big bus on the spaceship, you look at the top of the road or at the railing in the background. |
| 3 | The third Theet hides in the area with the captured scientists. Look below or to the right of the left stairs before defeating all enemies and opening the cage. |
Tips for Mission “Specific Rescue”
| Tip | Declaration |
|---|---|
| Stay in the middle during the flight | From the center of the screen, you reach endangered Theets and the professor ship the fastest. |
| Look for the help of the loop master | He hangs on a UFO during the flight and disappears again if you react too slowly. |
| Keep at least three hearts | Only then will you get both the second and third Sparkle Gem. |
| Raise vehicles after landing | Under two vehicles hide pose spots. The first leads to the fourth Sparkle Gem. |
| Examine the third vehicle closely | During the chase, the fifth Sparkle Gem lies behind one of the buses. |
| Throwing vehicles early | Do not wait until the UFO flies directly behind the Theets. An early hit keeps the pull at a distance. |
| Immediately rescue prisoners Theets | The first and sixth Sparkle Gem assume that no one is left behind during the respective sections. |
| Don’t hit the final boss continuously | Wait for your fists and counter at the right moment. This is the only way you can safely approach the UFO. |
| Search for first Theet immediately after landing | He is behind Princess Peach and can be overlooked if you immediately move on to the right. |
| Finding Third Theet Before Last Fight | Look at the left stairs before opening the cage and starting the final sequence. |
