#Set First Important Item C0000000 00000008 9421FFF0 BFA10008 83EDxxxx 2C1F0000 4182001C 3BC000zz 2C1E0057 41820010 281E0078 41810008 B3DF00A0 BBA10008 38210010 4E800020 60000000 00000000 xxxx = 1BE0 (US), 1680 (JP), 1CC0 (EU) zz = Item Id (Decimal values 0 - 120)(Hex values 00 - 78)
Blue Paper
| Invalid Item |
Item ID: 0054
Unused blue documents. A yellow version of this image is used for the Goldbob's Guide item.
Magical Map
| A map from Princess Peach. It locates the Crystal Stars. |
Item ID: 0032
While the Magical Map is always in Mario's possession, it's not stored as an item in the final game.
Mario Poster
| Invalid Item |
Item ID: 005A
Unused key item. Appears to be a poster of Mario. The graphic is used as a reference image of Mario by the Shadow Sirens in Chapter 2.
Poisoned Cake
| 譎らおいしそうだけど どうして こんなところに ケーキがあるの? |
This is a dubious but delicious-looking cake. But why is it at a place like this?
Item ID: 0042
This cake can be found at the Glitz Pit, but it can't be placed in the player's inventory as it's automatically eaten. Judging by its placement in the item table, it was intended to be a key item.
Red Paper
| Invalid Item |
Item ID: 0053
Like the blue paper, but it's not blue, obviously.
Star Stone
Star Stone
| 『星の石』で ございます メッセージは かりで ございます |
This is the "Star Stone". Temporary message.
(Note: This message uses "de gozaimasu", a more polite form of "desu" (it is / this is).
Item ID: 0069
Placeholder item for the Crystal Stars (called Star Stones in the Japanese version). This uses the same image as the Star Key. This is the only item with an untranslated inventory name.
Ultra Stone
| A stone that helps raise your partners to the highest rank. |
Item ID: 0058
This item is automatically taken by Merlon and never appears in Mario's inventory.
Unused Items
A variety of unused item descriptions are in the game. Use the following Gecko code to place the given item in the first inventory. The code also checks to see if the item ID is valid.
#Set First Standard Item C0000000 00000007 9421FFF0 BFA10008 83EDxxxx 2C1F0000 41820018 3BC000zz 3BBEFF82 281D006D 41810008 B3DF0192 BBA10008 38210010 4E800020 00000000 xxxx = 1BE0 (US), 1680 (JP), 1CC0 (EU) zz = Item Id (Decimal values 126 - 235)(Hex values 7E - EB)
Cake
| いわゆる 『ケーキ』 いわゆる うまい |
It's what's called "cake". It's what's called delicious.
Item ID: 00A0
Selling Price: 5 Coins
This cake can be found at the Glitz Pit, but it's not placed in the player's inventory as it's automatically eaten. However, if hacked into the inventory, it does have a use! It will restore 10 HP and can be used in and out of battle.
Koopa Curse
| 『カメののろい』だよん |
It's the "Turtle Curse!"
Item ID: 00B2
Selling Price: 5 Coins
This is functionally complete, though its image in the menu and in battle is the default Zap Tap image.
![]()
Which is odd, since there is an appropriate image in the game.
Using this item in battle will give one enemy the "Slow" status effect, forcing it to rest every other turn. This lasts for 3 turns and does not stack.
Trade Off
| Earns more Star Points than usual after battles. |
Item ID: 0091
Selling Price: 5 Coins
An interesting item that was very close to being completed, but was ultimately discarded. It even had its description translated! Unlike the Koopa Curse, it uses the appropriate image in all menus and in battle.

Using it in battle will cause all enemies to "Rank Up!", which raises their hidden Level values (which determines Star Points earned when the enemy is defeated) by 5. While the "Rank Up!" message (and the item's name) implies that the enemies would get tougher, the enemies' attack and defense stats do not change.
Other Unused Item Images
Items that weren't coded at all.
![]()
An unused coconut recipe involving a spoon or something.
![]()
Some sort of rod with a fire flower at the head. Probable combat item.
![]()
A pillow. It could have been an early version of the blanket that you need to get for the Excess Express' conductor.
