Once upon a time, there's a place that sets way above the sky named "Star Haven". The place where all 7 Star Spirits live! There's also a special wand that is sitting inside of the glass called "Star Rod" where every wish that people wished for became true. Suddenly, Bowser has taken over the Star Haven, breaks the glass barrier, and steals the Star Rod. With a purple magikoopa named "Kammy Koopa" uses her wand to capture all of the Star Spirits and into the card. Thanks to Bowser and Kammy Koopa taking over the Star Haven and stealing the 7 Star Spirits and the Star Rod, the star kids has to attempt to make the wishes true. But no matter what they do, no wishes has come true!
Meanwhile at the Mushroom Kingdom, a Paratroopa named "Parakarry" delivers a letter to Mario's house and Luigi comes to get it. In this message, Princess Peach is planning a huge party at her castle. And Mario and Luigi are invited to the party. And so they went. When Mario came to see the Princess, an earthquake happens. A castle has been lifted all the way to space by another castle. Which found out that it was Bowser who lifted Princess Peach's Castle with his own castle. As he saw Mario, he attempts to attack him. With his Star Rod in hand, he was able to make himself invincible with a star shield so he can defeat Mario quickly. And he did! With his victory in hand, he throws Mario out of the castle with a lightning. And fell all the way to the forest. As Mario landed, the 7 Star Spirits came to wake up Mario. Despite being invisible, there's nothing they can do and left. Then, a female Goomba named "Goombaria" checked by and realized that Mario is laying on the ground. She tried to wake him up. But was no hope. As she gives up and called her family. A few days later, a Star Spirit named "Eldstar" has told Mario to go to the summit called "Shooting Star Summit" so they can talk about what's going on with the Star Rod and the 7 Star Spirits. At last, Mario woke up from a very long sleeping. Realizing that he was in a weird place. Only to find out that he's in a village named "Goomba Village". Which is a small village where the Goomba family lives in. But he has to go to the Shooting Star Summit to find out. A couple of trips later, Mario was on the top of the summit. And the 7 Star Spirits told Mario about what happen to the Star Rod and wanting him to save all of the Star Spirits so he can defeat Bowser, give the Star Rod back, and save the Princess.
Later on, Mario has saved the 7 Star Spirits and now was able to take a trip to Bowser's Castle and enter Princess Peach's Castle to defeat Bowser. However, Bowser has a plan to use Kammy Koopa's special platform called "The Power Platform" to allow Bowser to become stronger. But that doesn't stop Mario from getting trapped as he attempts to defeat Bowser. But as Bowser uses the star shield, Mario attempts to use the Star Beam on him. But it fails to do so as he has no hope against defeating Bowser in his star shield since he was 100% invincible. However, Peach and the star kid named "Twink" defeated Kammy Koopa and Peach attempts to make a wish that the Star Beam was strong. With the Star Beam upgraded to "Peach Beam", Mario was able to break Bowser star shield and defeats him very easily. Mario gave the Star Rod back to the Star Spirits and everything is back to normal now with Princess Peach saved and the castle floating down to the Mushroom Kingdom. With that, Princess Peach planned a big party about Bowser's defeat and came to celebrate.
