Plot
The story begins with five Sky Crystals falling onto Earth. Mario finds one of them and then shows it to all of his friends/allies. Just then, Kamek flys past dropping party invitations. Bowser sent the invitations to the whole crew inviting them to a feast at his castle as an apology for all his nasty deeds. They're suspicious, but everyone goes to Bowser's castle. Much to their dismay, it is a trap and Bowser steals a Sky Crystal. Using his new "Minimizer", he shrinks everyone. Mario and his friends find themselves tiny in a very big world.
Bowser wants to find the four other Sky Crystals without Mario and his crew in the way, and so he flings them to the far side of the kingdom.
The crew travels to Bowser's Castle, far away while defeating a Piranha Plant in Wiggler's garden, stopping a Hammer Bro. from ruining Toadette's instruments, helping Diddy Kong free DK after being turned to stone by a Dry Bones, and freeing a Koopa's grandpa who's been trapped in a book by Kamek. Each of them gives a Sky Crystal to thank Mario and his crew. Once the friends make it to the castle, Bowser traps everyone inside his pinball machine and prepares once again to use his Minimizer. Luckily, DK and Diddy received the invitation too, and have made it to the castle in time. While looking for the food, DK bumps into Bowser and breaks the Minimizer in half, returning Mario and friends to their rightful size. However, Bowser reveals his new "Megamorph Belt" and challenges the superstar. After Bowser is defeated, the crew takes back the stolen Sky Crystal and puts it with the others. The crystals combine into a new game and Bowser is meaner now because the crystals were part of a castle legend. But in a surprising move, the Mario and crew invite Bowser and Bowser Jr. to play with them. They accept, and now everyone is happy, including DK and Diddy, who have eaten the entire buffet.
