The last Airship level in the game. The main enemy in the course is the Mecha-Koopa, but the biggest danger in the level is the plethora of Cannons, and the players will have to dodge a barrage of [[Cannonball|Cannonballs]] at one point. In the midst of the cannonball barrage, the first Star Coin is waiting, and the player has to jump from flying cannonball to flying cannonball to get to it. After that, there is a [[Warp Pipe]] along with three Cannons rotating on a cog. This Warp Pipe can only be used if it is facing upwards, and it must be used to progress through the level. Throughout the level, the player will have to spin screws in order to progress.

World 8-Airship is the third and final Airship level and penultimate stage of New Super Mario Bros. Wii. Here, Bowser Jr. is fought for the third and final time, this time with Bowser's Koopa Clown Car. World 8-Airship is unlocked by clearing either World 8-6 or World 8-7, and its own completion unlocks the final stage of the game, World 8-Bowser's Castle.

Layout[edit]

Giant cannonball

The level begins near some crates, as well as a screw that moves a Screwtop Platform blocking the path when the player spins on it. Two Mechakoopas also come from a Screwtop Platform above. A section of cannons firing cannonball follows. More crates, as well as a cannon that fires giant cannonballs, are followed by a few more cannons. More crates and Mechakoopas are found, along with three giant cannons. A Screwtop Lift is found, along with a giant cannon. After that, there is a Warp Pipe on the giant quartet-cannon, leading the player to the next area. A screw is used to lower hanging platforms, followed by another screw that controls Screwtop Platforms. A Warp Pipe leads the player to the next section of the level.

A screw that controls coins is found, along with a Mechakoopa. A Red Ring is found, along with another screw that controls a metal platform. Another Screwtop Lift is found, with a Screwtop Platform also controlled by a screw in the way. The midway point then follows. Yet another Screwtop Lift is found, leading to a platform with a Mechakoopa on it. A screw that controls a large section of Screwtop Platforms, with some crates, a Mechakoopa, and the Warp Pipe leading to Bowser Jr. are found at the end.

In the end, there is the last battle against Bowser Jr., whose defeat provides access to World 8-Bowser's Castle, the site of the final showdown against Bowser. During the fight, Bowser Jr. prepares to fight with his broken Junior Clown Car, but uses Bowser's Koopa Clown Car instead. He attacks Mario with fireballs and spiked bombs, which can be used to defeat him by Ground Pounding the ground. After the second hit, the Koopa Clown Car begins releasing larger bombs. After the third hit with a Giant Spiked Ball, he is defeated. Mario then finds Peach on the airship, but Magikoopa arrives and takes her away, ending the level.
