About the Comet Medals [ATCM]
=============================
Comet Medals are white octagonal coins with golden lining and the image of a
Prankster Comet on them.
There is one Comet Medal hidden in each galaxy, meaning that there are a total
of 49 medals. They are use to make Prankster Comets appear in the galaxies.
Note that the Comet Medals can only be found in the first star of each galaxy,
so make sure to search them there.
In order to keep a medal you must obtain the Power Star, if you quit the level
before obtaining the star you won't be able to keep it.
To make the Prankster Comets appear you will need to obtain the second star of
the Tall Trunk Galaxy (Tall Trunk's Big Slide), once you get it a Whittle will
appear on the Spaceship Mario, talk to it to active the Prankster Comets.
Once they are activated, Prankster Comets will start appearing randomly in
galaxies where you already found a medal (although comets won't appear in every
galaxy).
====================
Mario's Moves [MARM]
====================
Here is a small list of moves you'll be using a lot to get the Comet Medals:
- Backward somersault: hold Z and then press A
- Long jump: while running press Z and A
- Spin jump: shake the Wii Remote while in midair
- Triple jump: while running press A to jump, as you land press A again,
finally press A once again as you land to do a long jump
- Wall jump: press A while facing a wall
