I never could figure out the trick here to get a 1up in this level..what's the secret?

the way i done it in that level, is to spin jump with the cape along side the block

Did somebody say 1up?

The point was to hit the three blocks in the right order. If you did, you got a one up. As sonoma said though you had the ability if you had the cap to spin jump beside the block. Doing so would almost always give you three correct blocks and thus the one up on each level.

I just jumped straight to the top and ignored it. Those were always the hardest, slowest 1-ups to get. And in that game theres like a dozen different ways to get lives.

There is a pattern to this that carries on from the previous time you did this part. I use to know it and could get all 1ups all the way up every time. Sadly, I have forgotten.

What's the right order?

As Kalmah said, its a pattern that was based on the previous time you did the one up room. I never figured that out so I just did the cape method which would guarantee you getting the the circle instead of X and thus guarantee getting the 1-up.

Pretty sure there's an order. There's probably more then one that can happen.

It's like the card games in Mario 3. I used to have them all laid out on paper, I would check two cards and know immediately which puzzle it is then get all the rest right. the stuff we did as kids... lol

its not so much the order as it is... not hitting the empty block

2 blocks have coins and 1 is empty. If you get the 2 coins first, then the third will have a 1up. if you are caped, you are guaranteed to get all 5 by cape-ing the blocks from left to right in each row.

Ok, it doesn't matter what order you hit the blocks in. Note that the block's ? symbol is rotating. If you hit two blocks per row such that the ? is on the front side, the third block will pop out a 1-up when you hit it.
