The movie opens with Mario, Luigi, Peach, Daisy and the Toads in the castle eating a cake. Everything is going perfectly until they are attacked by Kamek, who is turning the inhabitants of the mushroom kingdom into Goombas, Mario and Luigi, as heroes of the story, decide to fight against Kamek. By defeating him they manage to de-transform Toadette (who will have more importance in the sequel). Kamek, apparently dying, reveals to them that a Major danger is approaching, that Princess Peach was in danger. At that moment two parakoopas grab Peach and lead her to Bowser's castle (Mario and Luigi know that because they have faced him before). Our heroes undertake the adventure. On the way to Bowser's castle, some Koopalings (separately), Piranha plants, Goombas and Koopas would appear. When fighting against them, the heroes receive mysterious supports, (fire plants, Tanuki leaves, etc.). When they are at the entrance to Bowser's castle, the identity of those who had been mysteriously helping them is revealed, they were Rosalina and Luma. Rosalina gives each one a gift, Mario a white egg with green polka dots and Luigi a proton backpack (in addition to continuing to help them with the previous reinforcements). Upon entering they fight the rest of the Koopalings and finally, they fight Bowser in an epic battle. After that they rescue Peach and go back to eating cake with the Toads.
