The aquarium in the Tom & Jerry SNES game

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

Today's video game for the Nintendo DS is Ram Racing, developed and published by Storm City Games! It was released on October 12, 2011.

In Super Mario Sunshine, if Mario exits the Crate Guy minigame building in Delfino Plaza just as the time is about to run out, Crate Guy will talk to him from inside the building. During this, Mario will look directly upward, even though Crate Guy should be just a few steps in front of him, in the building. This is because the game uses a trick whereby the inside of the building is actually floating in mid-air above Delfino Plaza so as to not store it as a separate room. The transition usually works seamlessly, but in this case Mario looks at Crate Guy's true location, shattering the illusion.

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.

Note all characters except Mallow being on the exact same animation frame every time Beginning of dance: everyone in sync 30 seconds later: minor Mallow desync 1 minute later: major Mallow desync Source: Supper Mario Broth, screenshots taken on original hardware, game: Super Mario RPG (Switch)

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.

Note how Luigi has himself as an item. "Using" himself will crash the game. Source: Supper Mario Broth, screenshot taken in a DS emulator, game: Mario Kart DS USA Kiosk Demo (NA, DS)

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.

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.

In Super Mario 64, lighting is tied to the *camera* instead of the environment. As such, areas behind the camera are not only empty (due to not rendering objects) but also dark, creating an eerie atmosphere when Mario is not looking.

Pilotwings Resort states that guests are only allowed to drive electric vehicles on Wuhu Island. Earlier in the series, in Wii Sports Resort, this was phrased as "only electric vehicles are allowed on the island". However, in Mario Kart 7, Mario Kart races take place on the island where the racers all use gas vehicles. This suggests that Mario gained special pollution privileges for his Mario Kart activities.

In the Wii series games, Wuhu Island is committed to clean air by only allowing electric vehicles. However, in Mario Kart 7, gas vehicles are used in the races. This implies that Mario made a deal with the Wuhu Island administration to receive exclusive pollution privileges.

The files of the "Stampede" minigame from Mario Party 8 include an unused placeholder stamp texture that is clearly supposed to be the Slime from the Dragon Quest series.

Prior to Mario Kart World, the Moped Mayhem mode in Mario Party 8 was the racing game with the greatest amount of random generic characters in it. With the release of Mario Kart World, the rosters of the two can now be compared.

Analyzing internal names for Cheep Cheep models across the Mario series reveals a surprising tendency for games to not call their limbs "fins", but instead words like "hair" or "wings", even though other fish have "fins". What this implies about Cheep Cheep anatomy is unknown.

ok most of these are somewhat understandable since they're from other mario partys, but how tf did paper mario get there???

Super Mario Odyssey loads areas faster in handheld mode than when the Nintendo Switch is docked, though only after beating the game on that save file. Before completing the story, there is no appreciable difference between the loading times.

Two well-known voice clips from Super Mario Sunshine are Mario saying "Aren't I done yet?!" and "There's more?!" in an exasperated way, long presumed unused. However, there is actually a way to hear them in-game, as they have a chance to play when he enters a level at low health.

Experimental post: Mode 7? What About Modes 1-6?
Some games on the SNES, such as Super Mario Kart, boasted "Mode 7" technology. However, this raises the question of what happened to the previous modes. This post explains them and gives examples of their usage in Mario games.

In Super Mario Odyssey, there is a single Luigi who is somehow too much for the Nintendo Switch to handle. Bringing the camera close to this 8-bit Luigi in Metro Kingdom at night will cause the game to stutter and slow down to 5 FPS. This is the only Luigi who has this effect.
