'''Dire, Dire Docks''', also known as '''Waterworld''',<ref>{{cite|title=''Nintendo Magazine System'' (AU) Issue #42|page=18|date=September 1996}}</ref> is the ninth course in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. The entrance to the course is through the [[Big Star Door]] to the left of the [[Peach's Castle|Mushroom Castle]]'s main basement room. 30 [[Power Star]]s are needed to unlock the door. The entrance to Dire, Dire Docks is a large water-like portal, and walking or [[jump]]ing through it brings the player to the course. Before the player collects the course's first Power Star, the course's entrance portal covers the hole that leads to [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]], but once the player collects the Power Star, the entrance to Dire, Dire Docks moves back to the end of the hall, opening Bowser in the Fire Sea. Additionally, [[Bowser]]'s Sub<ref name=Sub>{{cite|deadlink=y|archive=web.archive.org/web/19980610064831/http://www.nintendo.com/n64/super_mario64/9-1.html|title="Course 9 - Star 1: Board Bowser's Sub Bowser in the Dark World" - ''Nintendo: Super Mario 64 Strategy''|publisher=Nintendo.com|accessdate=May 27, 2024}}</ref> (or the Submarine)<ref name=Sub/> in Dire, Dire Docks does not move until Bowser in the Fire Sea is completed.
'''Dire, Dire Docks''' is the ninth course in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and its remake, ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''. Like [[Jolly Roger Bay]], this course takes place in and about a large, deep body of water. The entrance to the course is above a large pool of water connected to a submarine dock by an underwater passageway.  A variety of marine life, including [[Sushi]]s and a [[Manta Ray]], live in the first pool. This course is located in the lower areas of the castle; it is accessible by having thirty stars to open a star door. The course is notable as the only course which changes based on the completion of another: [[Bowser's Sub]] sits in the docking area of this world until [[Mario]] defeats him in [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]], after which Bowser's submarine disappears, the gate blocking the passageway to the pond outside [[Princess Peach's Castle]] opens, and moving poles appear in the framework of the docks. In the DS version, there are also [[Bill Blasters]] which also disappear after completing Bowser in the Fire Sea. The level contains 106 [[Coin|Yellow Coins]], and it has a Blue Coin Block. Barring secret courses, it's the smallest level in the game.


==Levels==
This course shares the same music as [[Jolly Roger Bay]]. Like in that course, when [[Mario]], [[Yoshi]], [[Luigi]], or [[Wario]] is [[swim]]ming underwater, synths are added to the music; when the player character is on land in the second area, a drum beat is added to the music.
The level titles and numbers correspond to ''Super Mario 64'' unless otherwise noted. Also, this level has a "Through the Jet Stream" level, likewise in [[Jolly Roger Bay]].


===Star 1: Board Bowser's Sub===
==Layout==
[[Image:Board_Bowser's_Sub.PNG|200px|left|thumb|]]
[[File:SM64DS Dire Dire Docks Map.png|frame|left|Map of Dire, Dire Docks in ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]'']]
This level is the same in both ''Super Mario 64'' and its remake, ''Super Mario 64 DS''.
A majority of the course is underwater, like Jolly Roger Bay greatly resembling the real-world geological phenomenon of a cenote. The player immediately starts falling into a body of [[water]], and in the DS version of the game, there are some [[block (Super Mario 64)|Black Brick]]s and [[Skeeter]]s on the surface. Below the surface are [[Cheep Cheep|Bub]]s, a [[Manta|Manta Ray]], a [[whirlpool]] that will make the player lose a life if they get trapped in it, and several [[treasure chest|Treasure Chest]]s along the bottom. A large tunnel connects the two areas of the course, and there is a place to come up for air halfway through the tunnel.


As mentioned previously, Mario must collect this Power Star before he can fight Bowser the second time.  Due to the presence of Bowser's sub and other changes throughout the dock area, this is the only Power Star currently accessible to Mario.  The hero must dive down into the first pool, swim through the underwater tunnel, find a [[! Switch]] on the dock, and use the blocks that appear for a short time to jump on top of the sub. The Power Star was located at the front of the sub.
The next area of the course has several [[clam|clam shell]]s along the floor, a cage containing a Power Star to the left, and a grate spouting [[bubble ring]]s. If Bowser in the Fire Sea has yet to be completed, Bowser's Sub will be on the water's surface. Otherwise, the Sub will be missing and a large exit into the [[Castle Grounds]] will be open to the south. If the player goes near the exit, it will suck them up, but there is also a line of [[coin]]s near it. Above the surface is a boardwalk with [[Cap Block|green and blue block]]s that contain the [[Metal Cap]] and [[Vanish Cap]], respectively, as well as a [[! Switch#Super Mario 64 / Super Mario 64 DS|Purple Switch]] that creates [[block (Super Mario 64)|block]]s to the platforms above when stood on. Several [[pole]]s slide across the ceiling of this course, but they will not appear if the Sub is present.
 
Obtaining this Power Star gives Mario access to Bowser in the Fire Sea as the entire painting face is pushed back revealing the opening in the floor. On a side note, Bowser's Sub will disappear after getting the key from [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]], replacing it with the moving poles that are necessary to get a different star. Therefore, re-doing this star after this point is extremely difficult, though it is a lot easier in the DS version because Mario can use the Power Flower.

===Star 2: Chests In The Current===
[[File:Coffre 64.png|200px|right|thumb|]]
Returning for the second star, Mario should dive down into the pool. Around the whirlpool, treasure chests are located. Mario will need to open all 4 chests in a specific order to reveal the power star while resisting the pull of the swirling vortex. The star will appear near the whirlpool.
 
This level is the same in ''Super Mario 64 DS'', but there are 3 chests instead of 4.

===Star 3: Pole-Jumping For Red Coins===
[[Image:PoleJumpingForRedCoins.png|left|thumb|200px]]
This level is the same in both ''Super Mario 64'' and its remake. Red coins are scattered throughout the submarine dock. Nearly all are near the ceiling and Mario will need to utilize the moving poles. After collecting the 8 coins, a Power Star will appear above the [[star marker]]. The poles necessary to reach the red coins and star in the usual way will not appear unless Mario has completed [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]] which will make Bowser's Sub disappear. Alternatively, Mario can jump from the submarine itself and get the red coins and star that way.

===Star 4: Through The Jet Stream===
[[Image:Through_The_Jet_Stream.PNG|right|200px|thumb|Metal Wario sinking towards the rings.]]
The next star is located on the floor literally underneath where the submarine was. Mario will need to pass through five [[Coin Ring|coin rings]] that are being emitted from the jet stream. The Star will appear afterward and be right atop the stream generator. Since the current is too powerful to swim against, Mario will need to become metal and sink to the bottom.
 
In ''Super Mario 64 DS'', the mission is the same as in the original, however Wario must be used to collect the Star, as he is the only playable character who can turn to [[Metal Mario (form)#Super Mario 64 DS|Metal Wario]] in this game.

===Star 5: The Manta Ray's Reward===
[[Image:The_Manta_Ray's_Reward.PNG|200px|left|thumb|]]
For this Star, Mario must find the [[Manta Ray]] in the first part of the course. Mario must swim through five of the [[Coin Ring]]s that the Manta Ray leaves behind it. When Mario has done this, the star will appear just above the whirlpool.
Unless Mario has completed [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]], Manta ray won't appear.
This mission is the same in ''Super Mario 64 DS'', although it is moved to Star 7, with Koopa Surfin' Switch Star as Star 5.

In this ''Super Mario 64 DS''-exclusive mission, Wario must be used to collect the Star. He must swim over to and hit the yellow block, avoiding the shell. Breaking the three black blocks reveals a switch, which can be reached using the shell. Flipping the switch reveals the Power Star, which Wario must retrieve before the time runs out. It is impossible to reach the Star without the shell.

To get this Star, Mario must collect the [[Vanish Cap]] and the [[Metal Cap]], (hence the name, Collect the Caps) in the area where Bowser's Sub was, and drop down to the sea floor, into a cage at the side where the Power Star awaits. It is also possible for Mario to simply collect the [[Vanish Cap]] and swim down to the cage, though doing this is not what [[Nintendo]] had intended upon creating this mission.

Dire, Dire Docks, also known as Waterworld,[1] is the ninth course in Super Mario 64 and Super Mario 64 DS. The entrance to the course is through the Big Star Door to the left of the Mushroom Castle's main basement room. 30 Power Stars are needed to unlock the door. The entrance to Dire, Dire Docks is a large water-like portal, and walking or jumping through it brings the player to the course. Before the player collects the course's first Power Star, the course's entrance portal covers the hole that leads to Bowser in the Fire Sea, but once the player collects the Power Star, the entrance to Dire, Dire Docks moves back to the end of the hall, opening Bowser in the Fire Sea. Additionally, Bowser's Sub[2] (or the Submarine)[2] in Dire, Dire Docks does not move until Bowser in the Fire Sea is completed.

This course shares the same music as Jolly Roger Bay. Like in that course, when Mario, Yoshi, Luigi, or Wario is swimming underwater, synths are added to the music; when the player character is on land in the second area, a drum beat is added to the music.

A majority of the course is underwater, like Jolly Roger Bay greatly resembling the real-world geological phenomenon of a cenote. The player immediately starts falling into a body of water, and in the DS version of the game, there are some Black Bricks and Skeeters on the surface. Below the surface are Bubs, a Manta Ray, a whirlpool that will make the player lose a life if they get trapped in it, and several Treasure Chests along the bottom. A large tunnel connects the two areas of the course, and there is a place to come up for air halfway through the tunnel.

The next area of the course has several clam shells along the floor, a cage containing a Power Star to the left, and a grate spouting bubble rings. If Bowser in the Fire Sea has yet to be completed, Bowser's Sub will be on the water's surface. Otherwise, the Sub will be missing and a large exit into the Castle Grounds will be open to the south. If the player goes near the exit, it will suck them up, but there is also a line of coins near it. Above the surface is a boardwalk with green and blue blocks that contain the Metal Cap and Vanish Cap, respectively, as well as a Purple Switch that creates blocks to the platforms above when stood on. Several poles slide across the ceiling of this course, but they will not appear if the Sub is present.
