Topic: Trouble Getting Five Stars Mario 3d Land

I'm trying to get to the secret level in Mario 3ds Land. I have four stars and can't figure out what I've missed to get the fifth one. When I look at all the levels, I have the three star coins, the yellow flag and a little M and L next to the flag. So I'm pretty sure this means I did every level, got all the stars and hit the top of every flag pole. I've redone the final castles on both the regular world and special world a couple of times. Any idea how I can figure out what I need to do? TY

Don’t you need to get the top of the flag pole in each level.( possibly with each character)

Have you got the max amount of lives? Think that's what you missed.

@blindsquarel yes I did. I have the yellow flag icon on every level

@Luigi05 not the max amount no. I never read anywhere that you had to do that but I will go back to that one level and max out the lives today.
