I collect the star Big Bob-omb on the Summit in Bob-omb Battlefield without using the joystick. This was my most complex endeavor yet in the No Joystick Allowed series.

I collect the star Roll into the Cage in Tick Tock Clock using 2 A presses. The first A press is to jump to the platform next to the cogs with the bob-omb. The second A press it to jump up to collect the star.
This video is an improvement from my previous video in which I collected this star in 3 A presses. You can find that video here: http://youtu.be/BeVRvRlAK6E. Since then, I worked out a new strategy that saves an A press using the bloated bob-omb momentum glitch.
You see, when Mario holds a bloated bob-omb (whether normally or hands free), then he will have a constant backwards momentum. I take advantage of this momentum by having it push Mario during his ground pounds to help ascend the cogs. Then from the highest cog, I use the momentum to cross the gap to the cog near the cage. From there, I can enter the cage and collect the star using only one more A press.
This maneuver was extremely tedious to pull off. Marios moves are very limited when maintaining a bloated bob-omb, since he is expected to grab it as soon as it starts to blow up again. This doesnt leave very much time or freedom to angle himself properly, since he must always be facing the bob-omb to pick it up again. Furthermore, the constant backwards momentum can be very difficult to control. Since the cogs have such a small surface area, Mario can basically never have his back towards the edge, since he would be pushed off to his demise. The bob-omb actually has 4 bloated sizes, ranging from small to large, with larger sizes yielding greater momentum. Thus, I used smaller sizes when trying to angle and position Mario (since they allowed for more control), and used bigger sizes when ascending the cogs and crossing gaps (since only they provided sufficient momentum to do so).

I collect the 100 coin star in Hazy Maze Cave using 1 A press. The A press is to jump up to slam on the blue coin block.
I spent a lot of time formulating this route, as you can see in the diagrams below. I drew a graph of the different sections of HMC with their respective coin counts and the # of A presses to cross between them. I soon came to a problem, which was that in the maze, I needed 3 bats to reach the alcove, 1 bat to reach the highest blue coin, and 1 bat to leave. However, this required 5 bats, and was thus impossible. Eventually, I discovered that I could use a bat to get back onto the balcony from the rolling rock alley. This meant that I didnt need a bat to exit the maze, since I could collect the lake coins before entering the maze and just end in the maze.
I finally figured out how to reach the alcove purely by bouncing on the bats. See, there are 3 levels that the bats will fly at (see Swooper Levels below). The bats start at the low level by default. They can get to a medium level by flying onto the blue coin block platform or the montey mole platform. Then they can get to the high level by flying onto the ramp leading up to the exit. Mario needs to bounce on a bat from all 3 levels in order to reach the alcove. Recently, I discovered that a bat will respawn only when you leave both it AND its starting location (see Double Radius Principle below). So, instead of following the bats around, I could just wait at their starting locations until they aligned in front of the alcove purely by chance. Since I didnt have to follow them around, this meant I didnt have to worry about Mario dying from the toxic gas, or about the bats diverging and Mario being unable to accompany both. Instead, I just waited patiently for the RNG to do its thing.
