It is actually easier to retain the details than to remove them manually depending on the perspective. This is mainly due to the fact that the castle consists of simple, easily recyclable components that are simply put together like building blocks

if i had to guess the bg elements probably rotate slowly during regular gameplay to simulate a sense of distance and perspective change. and then the corruption just makes them spin intensely
This is exactly what the case is. There probably was a bit shift making the integer for it way bigger than it actually is. It's kinda fascinating how most corruptions have a logical explanation behind them.
This version of the music is just an octave lower version of the original music, so you can make any track from the NSMBW ost sound like that by putting it into Audacity and decreasing the Speed to 0.500
I remember playing Smash Bros Brawl via the Dolphin Emulator on my PC. Suddenly Pikachu had unending long Spaghetti arms and I had several nightmares because of it.
Oh my god when I was little my brother and I played this game together all the time and our copy was almost entirely functional but sometimes the sky would randomly turn black and the sound would blast at 5x volume and 5% quality, we always thought it was just part of the game but a few years later i saw my neighbor had a copy of the game and i said “oh that was such a good game but it was so annoying having to reset every time the game went to nighttime mode” and he thought i was just psychotic
I had an Action Replay DS and applied some funny cheats I wanted to try out to NSMB. It caused a weird castle to appear, which was a regular overworld level but had glitchy boxes as enemies. It was extremely creepy to 8 year old me. When I finished the level, the game crashed and my save was gone.
I have had this CZcams account for many years now, and I've never felt the need to comment, but man, I am very high, and this is easily one of the funniest things I have ever seen. Thank you for uploading this, I laughed so much!

4:02 Mario’s eyes appeared to be filled with hyper realistic blood. His suit was darker red, and his pants were stained with hyper realistic blood. His face was torn open, and his skull was visible, and hyper realistic blood stained his whole face. His hair had hyper realistic blood caked in it, and his skin was reddish, almost like he’d been bathed in blood. His hat was hyper realistic blood, his shoes were hyper realistic blood, his hat was hyper realistic blood. His skin was hyper realistic blood. The whole world was hyper realistic blood. The controller started to leak hyper realistic blood, staining and burning my hands. Something was… happening to me. I felt the bones in my hands go limp, and they began to turn into blood. It spread to my whole body, until It was all hyper realistic blood. Now you are hyper realistic blood. This comment is hyper realistic blood. We are all hyper realistic blood.

A lot of these are genuine corruption stockpile material. You're also very expressive and knowledgeable, and you've got a good sense of humor for things like running jokes and the unexpected.
