Hey there! I'm trying to get my Twitter account more active and what better way to do that than by sharing my passion for retro gaming? I kinda suck at Twitter but I'm trying to make an effort over there. Please consider giving me a follow: twitter.com/gruz Let's connect and share our love for all things retro gaming! 🕹🎮
Done!
Hey gruz, have you ever tried using game genie on Super Mario Land? I think that could make a great video.
don't really use twitter, sorry!
Bonus little tidbit here for the treasure ship secret. If your score is 5 off the multiple of 11, say if you have 44 coins, but your tens score digit happens to be a 9, finish the level on an odd number of time left instead of an even number.
When I was a kid I remember being able to jump over the flagpole in Mario 1 w/o the koopa troopa. Mario 2 once in w 1-1 where you drop the first potion I pulled up a coin from the dark world at the same time as going back thru the door and he kept pulling coins up out of the ground until you press a button. He's slightly off the ground and keeps pulling coins outta the air. If I remember right I don't think you collect the coins tho. Wow this brought back so many memories. Mario 3 : Stand on a white background block, press and hold up until you fall behind the background, and in 1-1 if you fly all the way up and to the left There's something there also. 🤘👽
For the internet kids out there…these secrets were only obtained through word of mouth back in the days.
Or get those video games magazine with the cheat code in it
Yeah, Nintendo published a whole-ass magazine about it. And had a hotline you could call.
Did anyone ever call the Nintendo hotline? My mom wouldn't let me! I wanted tips on ghost and goblins stage 2!
This person is right,we didn’t have the internet back then to look up cheat codes and glitches,so basically you had to be a real gamer to learn these or word of mouth like this person said
this is like the modern equivalent of those unofficial NES strategy guides
I used to beg my dad for a strategy guide, especially for Mario, Zelda, and final fantasy
OG gameFAQs with blue links and ASCII guides

That jump over the flagpole looks so fuckin tough to do 4:25 but he did it without any hacks this is like jumping over the Moon
Here's something i recently learned in Super Mario Bros. 1985. If you grab a power up while falling and let go of the jump button BEFORE you collect it, you can jump again by holding the jump button until the power up animation finishes.
I'm 45 years old, and I've been playing this game since I was 8. Evey one of these tricks is well known from my generation.
45 years later and am still learning new and hidden stuff from the games that defines my childhood 😊
I can still complete SMB quite quickly, know all the secret routes in super mario bros 3 by heart so this is why I'm asking this question about the purpose of this video, back then there was no simple convenient guides like this, it was all word of mouth from your high school friends who used to come to your house during the weekends, recent gens have it easy 😂😂
You’re not the only one! There were several things where I was TIL…!
it's newer thatrn 45
Super Mario Bros was released in 1985 on the Famicom, 38 years ago.
@@zeroqp
I had Mario Brothers for Atari
In SMB3, Level 4 of World 3 has a Lakitu spitting out Spinys that follows you throughout the level. There is an area with a pipe coming down from the sky that has a fire ball piranha plant in it. There is a floating platform of two blocks just beneath it floating in the air just above the ground and two permanent blocks on the ground on either side. There are two flying Goombas that you will want to take out. Once you do, grab a turtle shell and toss it between the blocks beneath the floating blocks making it bounce back and forth then jump on the platform and duck so as to avoid the piranha plant. If the screen is centered correctly and the timing is right, the Lakitu will spit out Spinys against the pipe in the air causing them to bounce into the area below. The turtle shell will hit the Spinys as they fall while you are safely chilling on the platform in the center. You just sit there until time runs out and you will rack up the 1ups! Sometimes you have to dodge a rogue Spiny that happens to land on the platform next to you, but otherwise you can just sit there doing nothing while getting a ton of extra lives.
In Super Mario Bros. 2 you can actually preform a double jump! If you run at an enemy and jump right before colliding with them the game still registers you as being on the ground. You can press the jump button again while in the air to preform a double jump.
Isn't that you just landing on them and jumping off real quick? Normal gameplay.
@@ActionGamerAaron No, it isn't. Speedruns of the game use this strategy. It has something to do with how the collision detection is programmed. You don't actually touch the enemy when you do the double jump.
The Nintendo Power Strategy Guide is the Mario 3 Bible. The first time we discovered the 3rd whistle and Fire Bros. was epic as kids.
Awesome video, but, there's a trick in Super Mario Bros 1 that you missed: in world 4-2, where you spawn the vine, but instead of climbing it, walk right SLOWLY until it disappears and until just a little less than half the block is on screen; jump up onto the block the vine was on and press left; if performed correctly, you will warp onto the pipe on the right-hand side of the screen; jump over the tall pipe and then duck into the next pipe; you will now be in the above ground Warp Zone and there will be a one block gap that you can fall into and die where the vine would normally be. The only drawback to this is if you didn't go the EXACT number of pixels, you will get locked onto the block until time runs out and you lose a life.
Believe it or not, I actually knew about everything shown off here
I've got four tricks to add for SMB2 that I didn't see in the video:
You can get infinite coins in a stage with weeds next to a ledge, such as 5-1. If you go into sub-space, grab the coins, and then fall in the pit before subspace expires, it will add to your coins but it won't count as having entered subspace, so you can do it infinitely, or at least until you run out of lives, up to 255 coins before the counter wraps around.
When you reach the second chain in 7-2, mash A while falling off the chain at the top to jump off it onto the ceiling, then you can run across the ceiling and skip half the level until you reach the room with the birdo who has the key.
Normally if you beat every level with the same character with no warps, you'll end the game with 20 points on that character. However, if you beat the first two levels, and then get a Game Over on the third, it will still count those levels when you continue, so you can get up to 24 total if you use two continues.
Finally, there's the trick for getting subspace music on the normal overworld. If you grab a star, enter subspace, and then leave subspace just before the star is about to expire, the subspace music will persist outside of subspace, and you can even pause the game and hear the regular Mario theme with just the background notes.
The subspace coin trick for Doki Doki Mario is only relevant to players who don't mind dying. Not everyone plays that way.
I don't believe you need to mash the A button to reach the ceiling in 7-2. As I recall, it's more a matter of proper placement and the timing of your jump.
Mario 2 has way more glitches than most because of the Carry mechanic and Subspace. I also think its better than 3 anyway
Ok I didn’t know about that last one. That’s wild.
Yes, up to "P4" for 254 lives. In Super Mario All-Stars, the code for the life counter has been fixed so it stops at 99 lives as originally intended.
Great video, as always! The SMB2 "kill code" is there because there are places you can get stuck in a level, and there's no time limit to run down.
Nintendo beat the SMM trollmakers with anti-softlocks by decades
Yes, the infamous "suicide" code. It works in interesting ways.
Suicide Door/Lose All Lives: when you enter a door in any level, quickly pause the game and input the suicide code (Up+A+B using the 2nd controller). Un-pause the game, and your character will fall through the door for each life remaining. The trick gets its name from the "suicide door" of some four-door sedans that posed a potential danger to passengers sitting in the back, without being buckled, while the car was in motion.
Life Meter Glitch: in World 4-1, 4-2 or 7-1, as you pull up the Rocket, pause the game and input the suicide code. Un-pause, and then your character will shrink after emerging from the rocket. Your life meter is at zero but you're still alive for the moment. Collect one heart to refill your meter by two, and then get another to grow your player.
I love SM2 as a game but the huge # of glitches makes it legendary
Another worth mentioning for Super Mario Bros 3 is the matching games that appear for every 80,000 points, they aren't completely random and they will remain the same in-game until you finish completing the matching the next time the matching game square spawns, there are 8 different patterns the game picks between, so if you are familiar enough with their item placements you can get good enough to usually be able to accumulate everything they include. Also, the Japanese version of the game includes a 4th warp whistle you can get in 5-1 by getting to the end of the stage and then flying up to the top of the screen over the wall on the left until you hear a trigger sound, then getting to the end of the screen a glitchy item flashing between a 5up and a whistle appears, raccoon tail swipe it when it's a whistle, collect the card for the end of the level and a treasure box will appear containing the 4th whistle.
There's a FOURTH Warp Whistle??? I've never heard of that until now!
@@youtubeneedstochange4414 it’s only in the Japanese version
@@hdofu *Original* version.
@@bubufubu ok… your point? The original was Japanese.
@@hdofu is, not was. What's the point of mentioning that it was made in Japan? Wherever a game is created, that's the *original* version, no matter the country of origin. Unless somebody is specifically requesting to know where the game was made, then it's pointless. It's also redundant as the overwhelming majority of games, at least back then, were made in Japan. Calling it the "Japanese" version can also be misleading as people might mistakenly believe that the game was simultaneously developed in multiple places and give credit where it's not due. Nintendo of America had no hand in creating and developing Super Mario Bros. 3. All they did was localize it.
OMG I wish I knew that trick on SMB 1! Holding down the A button and hitting Start! That would have saved me so much aggravation. I didn't know about that when I was a kid and I gave up trying to beat that game. Because it was so frustrating you couldn't save and you had to go all the way back to the beginning if you lost the game. And it was just a pain in the butt to start all over
I knew this but it never helped me because I could never beat world 8 without starting with a fire flower.
In SMB3's 7th World castle, there's a room full of bricks and a P-Block just to the right of the 2 white platform blocks in the center of the room. Touch the P switch and turn all the bricks into coins! Collect as many as you can, leave, return and repeat. Keep getting extra lives until your time runs out and do it again.
I always did that :D
I remember doing this to get enough lives to finally beat world 8
Wow I thought jumping over the flagpole was a myth! It’s actually really cool to see for the first time because I’ve been hearing about this since I was about 8-9 years old and now I am 40. This is so cool lol, I feel like a little kid right now 😂
amazing. finished these games countless times and memorized some secrets over the years yet still learning new ones in 2023. ten thumbs up ❤
The quality of your production has increased markedly over the last year or two. Well done! Great content as always.
Thanks for noticing Robby!
Whenever someone says this comment to me it's backhanded compliment
@@amallica Not meant as backhanded at all.
There's still one more secret that he did not show did you know that it is possible to do spin jumps in
Super Mario Bros 3 if you do the tail attack and jump at the same time you will do a spin jump
Hello, how are you doing?
In Super Mario Bros 2
-You can double the carpet flying speed by jumping onto another carpet while riding one, if timed correctly you will be able to ride both carpets at twice the speed.
-You can bring a carpet to the bottom of the screen and it will fly at double speed.
-You can hear the full version of the Sub-Space theme if you collect a star, wait in Sub-Space until before the music changes, at this point, exit the door into Subcon and the theme will continue playing.
At the End of 7-2, it is possible to skip most of the stage by jumping off the rope into the ceiling adn then walk left or right to bypass most of the sage.
There's a lot more actually for all three of the games.
SMB2 was such a cool game. I loved dropping those door vials at random places to check for hidden things.
A couple of little glitches I like to pull are: in SMB if you have the fire flower when starting a stage or exiting a pipe keep pressing A and B and after a jump Mario will slide around with a foot in front of him for a couple seconds instead of walking, and if you have the glitched little Mario with the fire flower he looks even funnier sliding with a foot pointing backwards like a skater.
In SMB2 if you have the star power and enter the dark world inside the potion door and the star power expires as the dark world vanishes you can keep listening to the SMB theme (it is a bit tricky to do this). Thanks nensondubois, your comment refreshed my memory for this one.
These are not big things but I wanted to share them with whoever is interested.
There's a secret warp that didn't get covered in SMB 2 where u can actually go to the left in a sandfall near the beginning of the level and it will allow u to skip thru most of it to the boss battle.
This is the only one I knew and was waiting for it in the video lol
Yep, I did that one too.
I believe that’s in the beginning of world 6-3
There's a better place to rack up lives in SMB3. I think it's on level 3-4. There's a spot with a pipe with a fire shooting flower hanging from the ceiling with a platform underneath. You gotta progress to the point where the critter in the cloud starts chasing you. Run back past the platform, grab a koopa troopa shell, run back to the platform and release the shell. There's 2 blocks on the ground for the shell to bounce back and forth and since you're on the platform and not the ground, your point for each red-spikey shell the koopa shell takes out racks up. You just gotta be careful with your timing, otherwise that cloud dude will knock you upside the head with a shell.
You missed one in SMB2. In 1-2, when you take the carpet from Pidget, you can descend halfway into the pit at the bottom of the screen. This will allow you to move forward at twice the speed than normal. This can help you reach the top of the hill before the carpet disappears.
Also, the trick for taking away Bowser's fire breath in SMB3, you don't actually have to land on the platform above the door, just scrolling the screen far enough to the left while on top of the brick wall is enough to trigger it.
You're like the real life comic book guy from the Simpsons aren't you.
The Mario 2 section in this is lame. Everyone knows where the warps are. What about FLYING SHYGUYS or the LADDER TRICKS or the fake Warp on level 6-2
8:05 “not much, is known as to why this one exists” …except that it was literally answered in the game’s own manual. It tells you to use it if you get stuck since there is no time limit and without the cheat you can easily soft lock the game just by digging yourself to the bottom of numerous vase bonus areas.
As a 42 year old who grew up on these games….I was so proud I knew 90%+ of these….and figured them out the old fashion way. I made sure my daughter has an appreciation for these older games, as I can’t really play anything post-Doom very well and still prefer my NES, Genesis & SNES classics (now on switch)….new controllers suck!
Good secrets!! Here's one most people never know. In SMB1, if you have fire flower power, start a stage or exiting a pipe, while holding down both A + B, you'll jump and when you land, his run animation will just be one leg up. Only lasts for several seconds but it's the 1 trick I've discovered that no one ever knows 😁
I was looking for this one. 👍
Ya. I remember that one. I'd call it the skate move. It's cool.
Me & my friends called it Skiing on 1 foot. Ever since then we always did it.
I remember pulling off the small Fire Mario glitch by fooling around in the World 1-4 castle. I was assuming that I was still Super Mario until a mushroom appeared in World 2. After becoming small I just had to see what would happen if I got my hands on a Fire Flower. I was not disappointed.
Here's another SMB1 secret:
If you don't defeat the Hammer Bro within exactly 43 seconds after appearing on screen
(not according to the game's timer),
he'll start running towards you.
This part applies in the SNES and GBC versions, too.
Hammer Bro can chase after you as
long as you're on the left side of the screen.
Bear that in mind.
Hammer brother usually jumps 7 times then comes at you. I timed one just before koopa in 8-4. 7 times every time. If I'm small, I'd stay on the pipe till he got within jumping distance. I'd jump over him and head straight for koopa.
Hey Gruz, awesome video. You nailed almost everything I can think of. Great job!
Awesome secrets!
My siblings and I only had about 8 or so NES games, but we had these three Mario ones.
Very cool and high quality, thank you so much for making the video!
always wondered about the white coin ships had them happen only appear a select few times in my life, to see how the formula is to get it to spawn is just nuts
Same here, I got it a few times, but never knew all that was involved.
Wow! I was sure I’d know all of these, but I’d never heard about the extra slot machine coins in SMB2.
Not sure how I went all these years without hearing about that one.
Thanks for another awesome video, Gruz!
Certain stages in SMB3 if you collect all the coins (with a margin of error of 1), will yield the white mushroom house as well that gives P-wings, Tanooki Suits, Hammer Bros. outfits, or Frog Outfits depending on world.
All these years and all the retro gaming vids I've watched..... Still learned a couple things I didn't know b4.👍
@6:44 This is another area that you can grab many coins for the slot machine for additional lives. Again, go out & back in the door to respawn the potion. :)
I wonder how many people actually figured out how to make the coin ship appear. That is a lot of seemingly random conditions. I assume most people back then learned that secret from "Nintendo Power", but anyone who figured that out on their own deserves a prize.
We had it accidentally a few times but ya nintendo power showed us ho to do it every time.
so fun trick with smb 1 is when your trying for the minus world that its been dubbed as all this time, if you scroll the screen a bit further to get to the middle pipe you will warp to world 5 instead, for the bowser trick of no fire you dont have to actually drop down to the door to get the trick of no fire BUT if you go too far you will trigger the other fight and get stuck there, keep in mind that most of these tricks are fixed in SMAS and the stay in bowser trick is fixed in the GBA version of SMB3 altho i do believe that wall jumping is still a glitch thing across the generations but the timing is slightly different, almost wish you would of showed off the wall clip in SMB3 where you can get into the wall and skip levels in world 7, smb 3 has tons of glitches and tricks to play that you bairly scratched the surface on
I just hooked up my NES for the first time in 15 years. Was playing 3 when I got the white coin ship. I played this game religiously for thousands of hours as a kid and never remember getting that. Very cool to see how it's done!
Another SMB1 trick: Every worlds first level (1-1, 2-1, 3-1, ect) has a hidden 1UP. The only 2 ways that these 1UP will be available are either warp to that world or collect all the coins in the previous worlds level 3 (1-3, 2-3, 3-3, ect). For 1-1 I guess you warped there from the title screen.
In SMB2, I liked the “shortcut” to the 3-1 mini boss: Once you’re at the top level (so not much of a shortcut), you can place mushroom blocks on the clouds to the left to create bridges to the area behind the mini boss. Nintendo Power called it “For Royalty Only,” claiming “[o]nly the Princess” could use this shortcut because of her long jump, but with the mushroom block bridges, any character could.
Here's a notable one for SMB3
The card game for each time you score 80,000
There's 8 combos
The last three cards of each game will always be mushroom, flower, star.
7 out of 8 times the very first card will be one of those.
If 1 out of 8 it is a 1-up, the mate can be found in the 2nd column last row.
This is awesome. When I was a kid, I accidentally pulled off the small fiery mario glitch. Until this day, I didn't know there was a formula to keep doing it. Always thought it was a one-time system error, or what not. Love your channel, man!
My feirnd in the 80s went out of town for the summer, a d when he returned, he had some wild stories . He said that his friend played mario 1 on nes, and that he jumped over the flag pole, and he got small with firepower.
I didnt believe him, until about a year later, i accidentally hit Bowser while hitting the key at the same time, and when the next level started, when i hit the brick and got the mushroom, it made me small. Then i realized he wasnt lying, and i got small with firepower. He waa a good friend, honest and loyal.
"Hold me Koopa, baby"
That is hilarious.
Then Koopa replies
"a thousand troop of Koopa couldn't keep me from you"
Awesome! thanks brother! I will have to go back and try some of these! Good stuff. 👍
You can pitch me any game bro. I will play them all. That is how reassuring your voice is. The power of speech!
thanks for the info 👍 some of the tricks I already know but a few I did not know about
To this day, I don't know how I ended up knowing how to do all the SMB3 tricks/cheats (besides the ones for the specific numbers I needed to get for the coin boat/white mushroom/etc and choosing a different koopa fight)
Great vid, man. Real trip down memory lane. I didn't know Japan had a different minus world, with extra levels, wtf! That's so neat.
I wish I knew all these secrets during my recent Mario series playthrough! Great video!
That coin ship in SMB3 was always such an enigma! Me and my sisters came across it a handful of times as kids but never knew what caused them to appear. I always thought it was just random. Cool to know there's actually a trick to it!
I’ve been enjoying your channel for many years, Gruz! Thanks for all that you do!
This is the most comprehensive guide I have ever seen. And yes: even I learned a few new things! :O
Thank you Gruz, the SMB2 tips are awesome!
I LOVED this. Never knew about the waterfall warp in SMB2, that blew my mind
THe Jump over the Flagpole trick in Mario 1 is crazy KOOPA in the FLOOR? Part 2 also has one where you throw enemys into the floor and use ladders the wrong way to
get Glitches
There were some I didn’t know but good stuff here. Might have to replay them again
11:37 “you have to finished the level with an even number on the clock”
Though people say this all the time, that’s not one of the conditions, it’s just that even numbers won’t change the second digit of your score since it will always be a multiple of 100. You can still get the coin ship with an odd timer if adding +/- 5 to your second digit will match the coin multiple. 22 coins with a score ending in 70 will unlock the coin ship with an odd timer. 33 coins with a score ending in 80 will work too. 44/90, 55/00… you get the picture, and technically 00 is also a multiple of 11. ;)
First time seeing your channel. You're like the nicest guy in the world. I'll definitely be watching more of your stuff and liking it.
Great vid, never knew about that coin ship!
Honestly the best part of this video is how you say potion. I'm not sure why you do this but I've noticed you had an extra emphasis on potion that sounds really cute in a good way.
I'm going to be honest I pretty much knew all these secrets. There were some details I forgot about but yeah I kind of knew all of them especially the warp zones I knew about every single one of those since I was a kid. Although the third flute which I knew existed I didn't find out where it was until way later.
Ghey 😮
Amazing content! Keep up the good work!
Accidentally stumbled upon your channel thanks to random youtube autoplays. Lots of mario stuff, including bootlegs romhacks and other fun things. I was surprised to find no mention of Super Mario Bros X on here since there seemed to be an awareness of some extra particularly obscure Mario content.
Would highly recommend checking it out if you haven't seen or heard of it before. Its a pretty neat project with a rather colorful history that is still actively being tinkered with to this day since its release nearly a decade and a half ago.
Thanks for learning me new stuff about original Super Mario trilogy
To a longtime Mario player, it was a joy to listen to Gruz relate the classic tips and tricks to a new generation of gamers. Wonderful stuff. ♥️
Keep up the great work, Gruz: your videos are a treasure.
I watched this video all the way through to be rewarded with {hold me, Koopa baby.” And now I’ve watched that part three times.
You missed the craziest trick in Super Mario 3. At any world, before going to any stage, just see power ups and press select. You can get any power up you want, including the whistle!
I did know some but not all of these secrets so great video.👍
The " Easy Bowser" trick in Mario 3 near the end was the only trick I still didn't know about till now.
I remember finding your channel at 1k. Glad you are at 50k!
This is cool!! Great job dude!
There's actually a second way to get the coin ship. You still need your coins to be a multiple of 11. But the tens digit of the score needs to be 5 away from the coins digit (11-60, 22-70, ..., 77-20, 88-30, 99-40). Finally you have to end with an ODD digit on the clock instead of EVEN. Since you get 50 points per tick left on the clock, the tens digit will flip to the correct number and you get the coin ship. This is helpful in worlds 3, 5, and 6 where there are fewer convenient coins and bricks to work with.
there is a "sliding" or skating trick. when you are a big mario. go into a pipe and hold both A+B. when you come out of the pipe you will jump. after that when you move left or right your animation frame kinda glitch and it looks like you are moving with one leg up and skating with the other leg
Mario 2 has another glitch where if you exit subspace just before time runs out or get a coin at that moment (I forget which), the subspace theme will continue playing in the Overworld. Useless...but neat to pull off.
😳 awesome!
I learned some new ones today
Thank you
love the video! yeah you missed a lot on Mario 3 but thank you for the ones on Mario 1 & 2!
The alternate Minus World is what you get in the Famicom Disk System version of Super Mario Bros. The ROM of the original Japanese Famicom release is the exact same ROM of the North American NES release (the European and Hong Kong NES release used a modified ROM optimized for PAL50).
Hi ! Nice video guy ! When i was young, i was trying to fly away over the flag at the end of world 3-2 or 3-3 (i don't remember), and i finally succeeded !! Then, there is no more ennemies or anything else, just run and run and run !!
I want to point out in SMB2 if you collect 5 cherries and go inside the potion door, collect the star and exit right as its about to end you get the star music to loop, this was my first glitch as a kid
In SMB 1 on level 4-2 if you hit the block with the vine but don’t go up the vine to the warp, but instead go down the 2nd smaller pipe to the right, it’ll take you back to the warp screen instead of the normal secret coin room.
Wow at least one of those tricks I was not aware of!
You have such a natural voice for this kind of content. Subbed.
Still remember pretty much all of them 😀 flashback right there !
I knew all the secrets of Mario 2. As for 1 and 3. Blow mind mind about the secrets I did not know about. THANKS.
I remember reading about some of these in the Nintendo Power guides back in the day
Thanks for explaning how the white ship and white mushroom appear❤
Taught me some new stuff … earned a new sub!
I remember when i was a kid and i told all my friends at school about being able to shoot fireballs when youre small in SMB 1. Soooooo many people thought i was nuts! I was able to demonstrate it a few times but not consistently enough to have them believe me.
I wish I knew these games as well as you did. I don't have any secrets to share, but I just love Mario games.
That A plus Start Button feature would have been super handy to know about when I was a kid.😂 But most of these we did stumble across on our own as kids just by playing so much...but that was one that we missed somehow
Been playing these games since launch. I have probably played SMB1 more than any other game, and still play to this day. It’s amazing that you’re able to find anything that’s new to me! Well done!!!
The SMB3 7-1 wrong warp. Yknow, the one that just warps you to the end of the game.
It's tricky to pull off; you need to manipulate specific values on screen, but once you do you just skip all of Dark World and get to the final cutscene like that
In Mario Bros 2 on All Stars version on the SNES , pause the game , hold L and R and press select and you will instantly die , like the 2nd controller code on the nes.
I love your Mario content! You are awesome!
This is the best Super Mario Brothers guide to the games I have ever seen!
Ive heard of these secrets many years ago but most of them I just thought they were just made up legendary lore but its cool to see that these tricks do exist.
Awwww, I was hoping to learn some crazy stuff - but this was legit what I did as a kid
as always, good stuff!
Thanks for the flashback to the good ole days.
SMB 1 - You also didn't mention hold A & B with fire mario & when you land keep holding them & he will ski on one foot for about 5 seconds.
Also when going to the 2nd warp zone in 4-2, hit the beanstalk & then inch the screen to the right carefully, As soon as the beanstalk disappears go back & grab it but hold laft, If you did it right mario will Drop to the right side of the screen. Then if you go into the first pipe You will appear in the mushroom warp zone area without the beanstalk present. Don't fall in the hole where it should be because you will die. But continue on to the warp pipes.
SMB 2 - You can grab a vegetable when you are fighting wart, Jump behind him And you can throw it directly into his mouth without the bubbles Breaking it.
Stage 7-1 There is a sand pit on the left where big wall is. If you sink into the sand and keep moving left eventually Mario will go under the brickwall. Keep jumping in moving left, It will take you directly to the end of the stage.
If you Use luigi, He will often clip into the top left corner of any brick. It has saved me many times from dying But on pure accident.
When fighting a Boss and the door opens, you can throw mushroom blocks on top of the light from the door. And you can completely surround the door with mushroom blocks.
SMB 3 - With the P-wing in Koopas castle you can crouch on top of the statues above the doors where there is a missing block. Stand up & it will push you through into the next area skipping a bunch of obstacles. Do that a few times until you reach Bowser's door.
