the instruction booklet for teenage mutant ninja turtles 2: the arcade game for the nintendo entertainment system
Do you known when was the last time that a console manufactred by a compagny other than Sony/Microsoft/Nintendo sold over 100k in a month ?
@mrdiamondj.bsky.social If there's one thing we learned…
but what if i WANT to shake the baby, Mama?! what then??
No no no! Don’t shake the baby
Classic Giant Bomb moment
never forget that this game shipped with a real baby doll that you opened the back of and stuck the wiimote into where its spine would be 🫣
that’s why the “don’t shake the baby” screens were even in the game 😭
Babysitting Mama (Wii, 2010)
In Super Mario Galaxy, the stars on the letters of the logo spell "u r mr gay", while for the movie it says "he mr gay". This is because you are watching Mario, not playing him.

In the #SNES #TomandJerry game, you only ever swim in a very short and easy section in the final non-boss level where you enter the aquarium that can be completed in less than 30 seconds. It's unusual that a mechanic would be implemented only for this, suggesting more was planned. #retrogaming

In Super Mario Sunshine, the insides of buildings are floating above the regular levels. The transition is usually seamless, never letting the player find out. However, under specific circumstances, the illusion can be shattered by Mario looking up at the room's true position.
An officially licensed bottle of Mario shampoo from Japan with an attached waterproof picture book contains a small unique illustration showing that the book can be read while bathing, using Yoshi as a subject. Below is the illustration, upscaled and isolated.
In the Switch version of Super Mario RPG, Mallow is bad at dancing. His dance is very slightly out of sync with the other characters, which becomes more and more noticeable the longer the player stays on the level-up screen. Whether this is deliberate or an oversight is unknown.
For an unknown reason, Mario & Luigi: Brothership uses up space storing identical, but separate copies of music tracks for each area they play in. For example, the files contain 6 identical copies of the "Subjugation" music, which take up over 22 megabytes total.
An official 1994 Japanese picture book based on Super Mario Land 2 contains a bizarre activity where Wario hid one of the Six Golden Coins inside Yoshi's stomach and Mario needs to traverse the entirety of Yoshi's digestive system to retrieve it.
The kiosk demo version of Mario Kart DS contains an unused item that appears as the user's own face on the bottom screen. Using yourself as an item crashes the game.
At some points during Mario & Luigi: Brothership, Mario and Luigi have a friendly coin collecting competition. During this, a rare glitch can occur whereby Luigi's score fails to display properly and HTML-like style tags become visible around it. This only happens to Luigi.
Extremely rare "Forklift Certified Mario" pin, awarded to Nintendo of America warehouse employees in the late 1980s for passing certification to operate Class 1 forklifts.
Super Mario Odyssey contains unused data for a cut "mechanic NPC" that would have lived on the Odyssey and maintained the ship. Unfortunately, the only existing image of this NPC is this extremely blurry screenshot from Nintendo development materials.
Normally, only Bowser can fight Dark Mechawful enemies in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. If Mario and Luigi are made to fight them, their attack becomes agonizingly slow, taking 4 and a half minutes to finish and give control back to the player.
Development files for Super Mario World contain an early version of the game's credits written iN A cOMbInaTiOn oF diFfeREnt LEtTer sIZeS, LikE tHIs. It is possible this was ultimately decided against as such text is often perceived as being annoying or difficult to read.
It's a new series of livestreams! Please join me on the Supper Mario Broth Twitch channel as I discuss the level design of Donkey Kong Country 3 and how studying it can help aspiring game designers create consistent and memorable levels. www.twitch.tv/suppermariob...
By complete coincidence, a sample comic from WarioWare: D.I.Y. Showcase appears to be notably close in its plot to popular online game Among Us, featuring an imposter among astronauts and the verbatim use of the phrase "among us", a decade before that game was released.
Officially licensed 2005 T-shirt with a bizarrely suggestive "What happens in the Mushroom Kingdom stays in the Mushroom Kingdom" slogan.
A piece of concept art in the Art of Super Mario Odyssey book is overlaid with the text "Note: Relief is temporary." While it actually refers to the fact that the design of the relief carving is not finished, it inadvertently appears to make an existential statement instead.
In Yoshi's Island, it is possible to obtain an extremely corrupt object called a Null Egg, which has a variety of glitch effects. One of them is that taking the Null Egg into the Naval Piranha battle will cause the boss to assume a psychedelic, color-changing rainbow appearance.
