'''Bowser's Last Stand''' is an [[e-Reader]] level for ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. The level contains five [[Advance Coin]]s. This card was released in Series 2 in Japan. Its official difficulty rating is ★★★★★. Originally available only in Japan, it was eventually included along with every other e-Reader level in the [[Wii U]] [[Virtual Console]] release of the game in 2016 for the first time. The key art featured [[Bowser]].
'''Kakushi Koopa Jō''' ( かくしクッパじょう ''Hidden Bowser's Castle'', unofficially known as ''The Gauntlet'' or ''Bowser's Castle Redux'' ) is an [[e-Reader]] level for ''[[Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3]]''. The level contains five [[Advance Coin]]s. The level is often described as the hardest among entire [[e-Reader]] levels.  


The three rooms that the player can choose between near the start of the level contain themes and layouts that closely resemble those in each of the three [[World 8-Hand Traps]] levels in the main game of ''[[Super Mario Bros. 3]]''.
==Level synopsis==
This level takes place within a [[Bowser Impostor]]'s castle. Its entrance room contains some [[Gray Bowser Statue]]s and a short [[lava]] pool with two [[Lava Bubble]]s. A [[Hot Foot]] and a Door are found at the end of this room. The door takes Mario to a vertical area divided into three sections. Mario must choose one of them and drop its [[Donut Lift]] to enter the corresponding door.


==Layout==
*'''Left door:''' a room guarded by [[Boomerang Bro]]s., [[Hammer Bro]]s., [[Fire Bro]]s., and a [[Sledge Brother]]. The Hammer Bros. hide an Advance Coin.

*'''Middle Door:''' a corridor over lava filled with Lava Bubbles. An Advance Coin is found above a moving [[platform]].

*'''Right door:''' a lava pool with jumping [[Cheep-Cheep]]s. There is an Advance Coin after the platform rails.
 
*'''Left door:''' a room guarded by [[Boomerang Bro]]thers, [[Hammer Bro]]thers, [[Fire Bro]]thers, and a [[Sledge Bro]]ther. The Hammer Brothers guard an Advance Coin, and one of the Boomerang Brothers uses a blue [[boomerang]] which can be used by [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] upon its defeat.
*'''Middle door:''' a corridor over lava filled with Podoboos. An Advance Coin is found above a moving [[platform]].

They all contain a [[Warp Pipe]] that takes Mario to a longer corridor, where Hot Foots, [[Bony Beetle]]s and [[Dry Bones]] are found. Upward Donut Lifts appear here as well, and can be used to collect another Advance Coin.

The next room features Bowser's incoming [[fireball]]s. The upper route is made of falling platforms and has more fireballs. However, Mario can get an Advance Coin that only appears inside this route's arena. The lower route is made of stationary blocks, has Podoboos and a few fireballs, but the player cannot get the Advance Coin. Both routes lead to a fight with Bowser, which plays out similarly to the one featured in [[World 8-Bowser's Castle (Super Mario Bros. 3)|World 8 of the main game]].

However, Mario can get an Advance Coin inside the Bowser Impostor's room. The lower route is made of stationary blocks, has Lava Bubbles and a few fireballs, but the player can't have the special coin fighting with the Bowser Impostor via the lower door.
