Mario vs Donkey Kong

Level 1-3 introduces us to the bar, to hang on the bar press and hold Up at the height of your jump to grab on and press jump to let go of the bar and go even higher then a normal jump. If you are not going as high as you want, hold Up a little longer and Mario will spin faster and faster, then just press jump and Mario's jump will be higher. You can practice this right in the beginning of the level, use the bar and collect the Red Prize. Then continue walking and jump on the elevator where a Yellow Prize is very near. Don't go for the Yellow Prize, its a trick, you'll end falling on some very sharp spikes and poor Mario will have to go through this again. Instead, take the elevator to the top and hop on top of some red blocks. Keep going right, where you'll see a elevator. If you'll going for speed, just fall down when the elevator is halfway up and then just fall again, beats waiting. Now jump on the Yellow Switch and the red blocks will be deactivated. Jump on top of the garbage cans. Take the elevator up and grab the Key. Now jump on the elevator, take it down and you can take it from here.
