Stage 1
It is Christmas. Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Baby Mario are taking a stop during their travel, in the middle of a snowy mountain. Mario quickly puts together a house where they can rest and, most importantly, give Santa Claus a place where to bring gifts for them. While Mario, Yoshi, and Baby Mario celebrate, Luigi is disappointed that they are not thinking about Baby Luigi, who is still trapped in Bowser's Castle.
Later that night, Kamek, dressed up as Santa Claus on a sweet potato stand pulled by Fly Guys, arrive at the house. After entering, Kamek spots Baby Mario and tries to kidnap him. On their way to his futon, Yoshi nibs on his legs, dreaming of food, while Mario and Luigi kick him in their sleep. Despite everything, Kamek stays quiet and take the Baby, but set off a Santa Claus trap, waking everyone up. Mario mistakes him for Santa and Kamek keeps playing along, telling him to take their present inside the sack. Mario opens it, only to find Jumping Piranha Plants. Panicked, Luigi bashes a wall, and the heroes slide down the hill.
Having reached a shack, Yoshi takes some skis and gives two pairs to Mario and Luigi, so that they can slide down quicker. While Mario and Luigi slide down with the skis tied up incorrectly, Yoshi tries to show off how to do it. He almost crashes onto a tree, but he executes a Flutter Jump, avoiding the crash, but landing butt-first on a pointy rock. Their slide is interrupted when the heroes crash into a fortress. Inside, they are face to face with Sluggy the Unshaven. Understanding that the hairy heart is its weak spot, Yoshi starts throwing eggs at it, but Sluggy dodges them by shapeshifting, then, after shapeshifting into a hand, grabs Mario, Luigi, and Yoshi.
Kamek arrives riding his broom and compliments the boss. Yoshi, noticing Baby Mario outside the slime, points to a frozen Super Star. Kamek laughs: they cannot resort to Powerful Mario, with the star encased in ice, but as he soon realizes, some Shy Guys are having a campfire in the room, and the fire is melting the ice. Before he can do anything, Baby Mario grabs it and the charges at Kamek, the Shy Guys, and Sluggy, punching them all together. The punch is so powerful that all the enemies are hit, Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and the castle blow up and everything lands on a nearby spruce tree, becoming the decoration of a Christmas Tree, much to Baby Mario's enjoyment.
