99 Lives
Clear the Hippopotamus Zone and the Space Zone. Return to the Hippopotamus Zone, run into the water, and then to the left. Grab the prize worth 50 coins. Do this over and over until you've grabbed 999 coins, then play the Bonus Game. Repeat this procedure until you have 99 lives!
Beat Bonus Game
To get 3 extra lives every time on the bonus game, just wait until a heart is going into the left-hand opening, and press the button to drop the claw. The claw will automatically grab the heart when it comes back out the other side.
Bonus Level
After ringing the Midpoint Bell in the first stage of the Space Zone, jump up to find the hidden block located in front of the ringed planet. Continue working your way up-you will find more hidden blocks and you will get to the Secret Exit high above the normal goal.

The 6th Coin
Choose to go to the Hippo Stage. There, you'll see a model of a hippo blowing bubbles. Jump into a bubble and float all the way to the end of the level. Instead of exiting through the regular door, exit through the door above it.
You would not have been able to reach this door if you weren't in the bubble. After exiting through that door, you will have to play a hard space stage. If/When you complete the level you'll get the 6th coin.
