    The Anchor is a special item in Super Mario Bros. 3 that is found in Desert Land, Giant Land, and Ice Land. As the airship typically moves to a random location if Mario and Luigi fail to conquer it on the first try, the Anchor will prevent this from happening, holding the Airship in place.

    My dad was a retro/oldschool gamer, and loved mario the most. I've watched him numerous times playing Mario and loving the hell out of 3. Now that i've seen this video i realized he knew 80% of the secrets and stuff (He didn't knew about some of the Glitches as far as i remember). And this was all when i was like growing up (3-10 aged). My parents divorced like 9 years ago and he passed away last year. After watching this video i now regret not playing with him more and only if could now.

      Thanks for sharing. When I was a kid my dad had the record on Rainbow Road for Super Mario Kart. I would always try to beat his score. I sold that copy years ago and my dad passed away since. I wish I still had it so I could still race him. I think it's best we focus on the good memories and not dwell on things we can't change. Have a great day Prince

      I knew about a fair number of them, not all of them, mind you. I choose to skip most of them. It's always been an effort/payoff thing. A P-wing is worth it, an anchor is not because it's honestly pretty pointless unless you skip levels with the cloud a lot (which I don't).
      You can usually tell a white mushroom house level by the sheer number of coins in difficult-to-reach places. That's how I found most of them.

    I am in my thirties now. I've owned SMB3 for about 25 years. Occasionally, I still pop it in my old gray box or play some hack on one of my emulators. To this very day I've *NEVER EVER* seen an anchor in SMB3. I'm genuinely mind-blown right now and I'll try getting one and see what it does.
    And I think I've also never seen a white toad house as well, however I'm having some dejá-vù about it, I recall very vaguely that it appeared once only in all those years. And since I didn't know about the anchor, it most probably contained a P-wing.
    The coin ships appeared very rarely, but I've definitely seen it several times. I figured, they might appear by pure randomness.

      As I recall, the anchor stops the airship from flying to another part of the map if you fail the level. The thing is, it only holds the airship where it is for that one time.

    Volume 13 of Nintendo Power was the Super Mario Bros 3 strategy guide. It taught me most of those tricks and also how to beat tricky levels like the World 8 fortress. The trick to deflaming Bowser was featured on some NBC program back in the day. You actually don't need to go completely over the wall to trigger it; just go far enough so that you can see the other side. Also, you can trigger this effect by taken the lower (and more difficult) route through the castle. If you do this, you won't need to go through any walls.

    Another secret some people don't know; SMB3 is actually meant to be a play, with all the characters being actors, and the worlds different acts. Hence the curtain that draws at the very beginning.

  • @namesolonggood1sgone
    @namesolonggood1sgone Před 4 lety +10

    In the airships of World 8, be careful if you use a P-wing, if you fly too high there's some object above the screen that will kill you instantly. The other trick, you can clud past worlds 8-1 and 8-2 and then right after there's a pipe. Go into it and come back out, basically you're in the same place. It's a pipe to nowhere. But then if you lose a life in the fortress, you go back to that pipe until you get a game over or you beat the fortress, you don't get kicked back before 8-1 and 8-2. 8-1 and 8-2 feel like work and not fun to me.

      What's interesting about the 'swimming under the boats' trick, is that in the Japanese version the corner block of the last ship is still there, meaning it's impossible to jump out of the water onto the ship and go down the pipe.
      This was obviously 'fixed' in later versions of the game.

  • @ptm75
    @ptm75 Před 5 lety +9

    Awesome video! A few other things to note:
    - In end areas where there isn't enough room to run and hit the finish block for the star, you can simply just walk instead. As long as you hit the corner at a 45 degree (hit the bottom right corner) while running a P speed or walking, you'll get the star
    - There is also a way to guarantee 5up on the slots/ spades on the world map. If you hit the star when its about to leave the screen on the top and middle and hit the star somewhere around the middle on the bottom you can line up the star almost every time. Note this take alot of practice but you can come fairly close or nail it after you play with it a little while.
    - You can warp right to the end of the game by completing specific movements in 7-1. Really tough to pull off but can be done to beat the game faster.
    - You can also pull another way to get unlimited lives in 3-10. Move far enough in the level to grab a koopa shell and then move your way where there is a lower and upper level. Toss the shell between the bullet bills on the bottom while you stand on the top to gain multiple lives as the bullet bills will continuously shoot but be killed by the koopa shelled back and forth. Theres another way in 4-1 where at the end of the level theres 3 red big koopas where you can continuously jump on just like the castle fortress technique.
    Again, great job!

The rest I was unaware of and admit I don't know what the anchors do... either I forgot or I've been under a rock...

    In 3-9 similar to 3-4 except it uses the bullet bill launchers under a platform and the parakoopa at the beginning of the level

    Here are some more things you can try out.
    1. Wearing multiple kuribo shoes.
    2. Turning into a statue to crush other enemies, like thwomps.
    3. Chain chomps break off their leash and run away if you keep them on screen for 200+ seconds. I forgot the exact number, but you basically give up a life in order to see it before time runs out.
    4. Repeat the duck statue strat outside Bowser's room and you see about four configurations of his fight while scrolling the screen. Do it enough times and...
    5. If you can cheat yourself 28 hammers and go to town on every boulder you can possibly break on each world map, you find new things.
    6. Blow a whistle after completing most of World 8.
    7. You can kill Boss Bass by shooting a fireball after he eats you and he is still above water. You still die from it. Might even work with the tail swipe, turning into a statue, or throwing a hammer.
    8. Try the turtle shell kick strat from SMB1.
    9. Abuse every spot where you can phase through walls by ducking into them.
    10. Hammers kill a number of enemies who might be invincible to other attacks. Maybe the Tanuki suit statue shares the same behavior.
    11. Fireballs work on Boom Boom, the Koopa kids, and Bowser.
    12. The clouds with eyes look like Cherbils from Paper Mario. The enemy that farts on you.
    13. During the Hammer Bros battles, you might get a power-up by hitting a block on the far right. I think you have to beat them and get the chest to spawn, to get the block to spawn a power-up. Don't break all the blocks.

    Mario 3 was something else. So many secrets. I knew about the white toad house and coin ship, but never knew how they appeared.
    Probably not a secret, but you can kill ghosts (Boo) and twomp with the hammer suit. Probably the best defensive outfit on the game.

  • @NixNix-ch7ow
    @NixNix-ch7ow Před 5 lety +7

    One trick/glitch that I found out about and find cool to mess with is if you have a Tanooki suit (raccoon suit) on and go through a pipe with the right timing, press down and B to turn into a statue and you can see Mario or Luigi go down the pipe as a statue, but in human form looking at you the player like they always do. It's difficult to do but fun to play with. You can also slide in statue form too but it's not easy to do. Oh and by the way if you use a “P” wing on a level where you can get a raccoon suit in, and collect the suit, because the suit has a tail used to fly, the “P” wings power will be transfered from the leaf power up you started with to the Tanooki suit, and won't go away until either you get hit, clear the level, or run out of time, whichever comes first. Also turning into a statue doesn't deactivate the “P” wings power either. (Good thing to know if you want to beat Bowser with the Tanooki suit on). Just saying.

    This was a really, really solid video. Thank you for making this. Truly a legendary game - Super Mario Bros. 3. Mario 3 was one of very few games I played with my parents. They were enthralled, really, by its perfection and deeply interesting digitized world -- I don't know if they'd describe it like that, but from my perspective now, seeing, particularly my Mom so into a videogame was absolutely groundbreaking in my little mind. An adult, watching me play a videogame, actually asking for a turn, receiving said turn then being reluctant to even give it back... to the child! lol Yes, it is quite a game this Mario 3. Such good times :)
    My Dad mainly played the original Super Mario Bros. with me, but he too found the Mario 3 particularly fascinating and, if I recall correctly, did play the first few levels and some early levels in World 2 with me. Mario 3 really is a game for all. It's so easy to pick up and be absorbed into. I marvel at Mario Bros. 3, and like so many, this game remains firmly in the general discourse as far as videogames as a whole are concerned. Well enough rambling for now. Seriously excellent video upload, thank you very, very much Blue Television Games!

  • @brucea9871
    @brucea9871 Před rokem +2

    It was interesting learning many things I never knew about Super Mario Brothers 3. In particular I never knew about the warp whistles (although just recently I suspected there were some due to a reference to them in a Dorkly video) and I never knew what made the coin ship appear (until now I assumed it happened at random). This video explained what makes it appear (and also why it appears so rarely). Nor did I know about the ways to get a lot of lives very quickly, or that there was a way to kill a burner. But I did know that running at top speed at the end of the level and jumping up to hit the bottom left corner of the box will get you a star every time. Another thing I discovered is that when flipping the cards over in an attempt to get matching cards there are only a few different arrangements of the cards (I think there were four different arrangements). So while playing I recorded the objects on the back of the cards for all possible arrangements. Then in future games after I flipped over a few cards by consulting my recordings I could quickly discover which arrangement was being used so I could easily match all the cards.

  • @Hysto1
    @Hysto1 Před 5 lety +4

    Thank you for this and your other videos. There is a series of mini-game levels where Mario and Luigi compete in 2-player games of SMB3. There is a trick/glitch for collecting blocks that appear as flames in the card location in the 12th mini-game level. These are referred to online as "flame cards" and collecting three yields many lives. This is a unique method of getting to maximum lives in SMB3 without playing any actual levels, scoring points, or collecting coins. It is also unique because it requires cooperation between Mario and Luigi in the only part of the game where they play simultaneously. This can only be done in original SMB3 for NES, not for later versions. Can you try this with the retro-free console or with Game genie?

    There’s a secret pipe on World 8 Stage 1. You must use the P-Wings to fly over everything and you’ll see a pipe in the top. Land on it and go down and you’ll encounter a huge question block that gives you three 1 ups.

    • @Lastjustice
      @Lastjustice Před 2 lety

      You don't need a P wing to reach it. Just build up enough speed with a raccoon suit at the beginning. You have enough flight time to reach the pipe if you do it right. You can make sure build up to P speed before exiting,(Run and jump then exit the pipe.) then fly over the majority of the remaining level.
