I think it's absolutely amazing that there is exclusive art on the game and watch that uses the modern mario art style combined with mario and luigi's old color palette from SMB1

[@alexwilliams3078]

If you beat SMB on this thing, you'll unlock a difficulty toggle on the main title screen. You'll be able to switch between Normal and Hard before each game. I think its neat.

[@radmaximilian9421]

I noticed that you can play as Luigi in Ball by holding in A for about 5 seconds while selecting game A/B

[@trumangraham2602]

I guess that with these pictures, Nintendo has confirmed the existence of a "classic" Mario, like classic Sonic. At least he didn't divide a fanbase this time.

[@magicowlofbacon9416]

@@anthonygerardotorresgonzal6269 I was kind of being sarcastic about the fact that short sonic is a different character, but Odyssey also acknowledges this as a separate outfit. Plus, it hasn't appeared in a mainline game since the 80s, so it fits both purposes.

Trivia on the Mario Drawing Song: Originally a Flipnote made in Flipnote Studio for the 25th anniversary. (I used to have it downloaded to Flipnote Studio on my old DSi XL)

[@paperluigi6132]

If anyone doesn’t understand why the secret screen on Ball is of Mario juggling, it’s a reference to a 1990 Game & Watch game called Mario the Juggler.

[@ieyemyeyes]

I think that it’s just Ball

[@georgeyreynolds]

Mario the Juggler and Ball are essentially the same game but MTJ has a Mario head . They were the first and last games in the G&W series. I think Ball just had a generic Mr G&W head.

[@CaptainoftheFacility]

Here's another thing. You may have noticed that at 9:13 The Time cuts to a scene of Mario fighting bowser. This is a reference to the initial launch date of Super Mario Bros. in Japan, 9/13/1985. (Im also making a list of the animations I see during Time mode, I'll post what I find later)

[@The_Holy_Wooomy]

This is disgusting and stupid, how dare there be a decent yellow in the game. If you didn't know, the NES didn't have any good yellow colour in it's palette

[@mistamaog]

The true next gen console we've been waiting for

[@lor8262]

The Mario drawing song makes me want flipnote back even more than I did before

[@jpsplat]

A secret I found: after a game over in Mario Bros 1/2 you can press B at the title screen to select which world to start from.

[@lashmoney5293]

Another secret i believe i found out is that if the device is off and charging, and a new hour passes (the clock turns to like 5:00, 6:00) the system would turn on by itself and make a little noise.

[@thatguy5160]

you forgot about the infinite lives secret that happens when you hold the a button in super mario 1 loading screen and the hold a on the mario ball game to change to luigi

[@k.w.6214]

That would be cool if the game & watch could have a alarm

[@revenge_is_golden7587]

There's actually another image that can appear. Which I believe is possible to see when the clock is set to 12.00pm and on the time screen. The image was of Luigi and mario having a lunch break.

[@dontaskmenething2323]

I bought one of these for my wife for our anniversary, she's a HUGE Mario fan! Can't wait until it arrives!

[@shaggy791]

Three more Easter eggs that you forgot. If you hold down the A button on the title screen on Mario Bros., you get infinite lives. This may also work for Lost Levels, I don’t know. If you beat Mario Bros., there is a hard version of the game. And this time around, you don’t have to do it in one shot, since you can have it go to sleep, and when you wake it up again, you will be where you left off. And lastly, you can switch between games, and when you return, your progress will be at where you left off.

[@LeSomeGuy]

Didn't Game & Watch used to have 2 alarm clocks as built-in features or did I remembered it wrongly?

[@PLATESWEEPER]

Yeah i had a two of them that had alarms. Idk if they all did though.

[@TreasureTrackerGreenToad]

The Mario drawing song reminds me a lot of the kirby version from kirby's adventure.

[@orangeyeez]

its nice to see a sun set in the original mario bros Its also very nice how a cartoon art of Mario is in his in-game colors

[@TripleJump]

THEY BROUGHT BACK THE MARIO DRAWING SONG!!!! From Nintendo TV on the Wii! I haven't heard anything related to that song since it's cameo in Super Mario 3D Land. This makes me so happy! I can't describe how freaking hype this this.

[@yperokeanios]

It’s a flipnote that was originally posted by nintendo on Flipnote Hatena to celebrate the 25th anniversary.

[@Logan_935]

The “sleep” images are not specific to what you are doing at the time. They randomise so you can encounter any of the 3 at any point when idle.

[@themetalgamer9864]

Fun fact: They drew Mario wrong. Mario's mustache always has six segments.

Original trailer says 35 little touches you can discover... so 28 to find? Yoshis and hammer bro were shown in the trailer.

Holding A for several seconds on the SMB title screen gives you infinite lives. Still trying to figure out how to continue though.

[@jpsplat]

After a game over you can press b at the title screen to select which world to start from.

[@SomeGuy712x]

If it's the same as the original NES game, hold A when you press Start on the title screen to continue at the beginning of the world you got a Game Over in. You'll start at level 1 of that world, though. (So, for example, if you got a Game Over in world 4-4, continuing would start you at world 4-1.)

[@Sir_Kero]

@@SomeGuy712x Trying that was actually how we figured out the infinite lives secret. You can't quite follow the old directions because... There is no Start button somehow! The Pause/Set button brings up a menu, so you start a game with 'A'.

[@SomeGuy712x]

@@Sir_Kero Huh... Well, there's gotta be some way to use the continue code. But, since you found infinite lives, it's probably moot anyway.

Interesting fact: the Mario drawing song was remade in Super Mario 3D Land’s final special world

[@christonadams9046]

I knew the was a similarity in melody. It's Special World 8's theme

[@nidhogg3771]

Playing around with mine I've noticed that the square second timer going around the edge turns to a larger red square for every 5 second interval also I've noticed that the square will sometimes flash (think its at 5 min intervals) and make different sound. Maybe connected to pressing a+b? I was just playing with it and Mario went down the pipe on the clock screen and into an underwater zone with no clock. Also on the box itself peach and toad are hidden behind the bricks on the sleeve and there's a picture of Luigi playing ball on the tab when you open the box. So maybe playable Luigi in Ball?

[@shinjix2]

Hold "A" at the title screen of ball for 5 seconds to play as Luigi

[@beesree39]

the box flashes when a special animation is happening

[@nidhogg3771]

​@@beesree39 It still makes me wonder why they would make the clock flash in a similar way when you press the buttons. It could be nothing but it seems like a strange feature.

[@adamg2446]

There’s one more Easter egg that works for me, if you go on Mario bros and hold a on the title screen for 5 seconds, then press b quickly, it will send you to 2-1

[@GrounderSez]

amazing the mario drawing song is the best part

[@wemodwii]

I can't believe they included a flipnote

[@samus33529]

Infinite lives: hold A before starting a game. To jump to any level, press B once for each level you want to skip to.

Mario drawing song. First you draw a circle Then you do the eyes Draw a great big smile And PRESTO it’s Kirby!

[@GaminApe]

Oh God. That framing on the Mario drawing song though.

[@absuplendous]

I don't think I've ever seen official Mario artwork featuring Mario in red overalls and a brown shirt before; that's pretty neat. The Ball sleep screen's artwork is reminiscent of the box art for the last Game & Watch game, Mario the Juggler (based on the first game, Ball). It's all come full circle! Is that Game & Watch Gallery tune in the background of the video also in the G&W itself, I wonder? I'll find out soon enough!

[@just_vibe9604]

That’s so cool how it’s modern Mario art but he has his older colors

[@HarrisonIrish]

I love this game and the Zelda one such a throw back and they are fun

There's a rare chance that Mario goes in the pipe to fight bowser at his castle. I don't know how rare it is; I've only seen it once.
