    Thanks. The long-distance-staple-wasting-barrage tactic is the trick for the Bossotronic version. None of the bosses are that hard in the main story (as befits a child-friendly game) but the Bossotronic replays disable the option of paying Toads for hearts and I kept being wiped out by the gold-staple Bite Barrage. Very frustrating getting wiped out after nearly 10 minutes each time.

    One trick we found out is if you attack from further away the boss shoots at you instead of pinning you down. This can waste his staples and spread out the damage over multiple turns to the point that bite barrage does zero damage. This can avoid close calls and you can jump attack him from any distance. Even gold staples only do about 50 damage from a long range barrage.
