How To Find All New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exits?
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exit 1 – Acorn Plains
This secret exit is found in the “Crooked Caverns” level, which is the second level in this world. To find it, you will have to look in the same area as the third-star coin. You will be able to spot a sign with an arrow pointing at something, and once you ground pound it, you end up in the very first secret exit.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exit 2 – Layer Cake Desert
You can find this secret exit in “The Walls Have Eyes” level, which is the fifth level in this world. It is found just after the area leading to the 2nd coin and right before a mini pipe. You can spot an odd platform that can be destroyed with a ground pound to lead to the secret exit.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exit 3 – Sparkling Waters
You can find this secret exit in “Haunted Cargo Hold” level, which is the fourth level in this world. This can be found near the pipe which will lead to a regular exit. You have to jump in the water instead of going into the pipe and then quickly head into the underwater pipe before the fish is able to harm your character.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exit 4 – Frosted Glacier
You can find this secret exit in “Peek-a-Boo Ghost House” level, which is the seventh level in this world. When you encounter the first ring of boos, jump over them to get to the ceiling and find this secret exit.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exit 5 – Soda Jungle
You can find this secret exit in “Dancing Blocks, Poison Swamp” level, which is the third level in this world. This is found at the start of the level where you can see all of these bricks coming out of the poison. Head to the last one and do a ground pound on it to make it solid. This will also make a “P” Switch appear that will take that brick to a warp pipe leading to the secret area.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exit 6 – Rocky Candy Mines
You can find this secret exit in “Rising Piranhas” level, which is the sixth level in this world. Near the set of “?” block is a big plant on a moving platform. You will have to jump above him to get into a secret area. Either freeze him or use the acorn to fly above him.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exit 7 – Meringue Clouds
You can find this secret exit in “Vanishing Ghost House” level, which is the fifth level in this world. The second starguy that you encounter in this level hides a secret exit underneath it. If you fall off of the platforms in the right way you’ll drop down to the exit door that will lead you to the castle.
New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe Secret Exit 8 – Peach’s Castle
You can find this secret exit in “Magma Moat” level, which is the first level in this world. After you find the second star coin, keep heading right until you find a set of breaks at the top of the screen. Use fireballs to break the bricks and then hope up to find a hidden wall that has a warp pipe.
