[@thefinegod]

Thanks for the shoutout! It's been 11 years since that Wendy glitch happened. I have no idea what triggered it, unfortunately. It only happened that one time. We were playing multiplayer on a standart WiiU, physical EU version of the game, close to launch, and in the clip my brother said he jumped into her from below, but that's all the info I have... Love your videos! ❤ -thefinegod

[@62mainstreetnewarknj58]

lol

[@TheWanderingTaco]

Must be nice to be seen by a huge youtuber you like!

[@lwke1296]

Jumped on her from below? 🤔

[@ls190v2]

EU 1.0.0/1.0.1 would be a good candidate.

[@jonicamann2472]

11:00 the reason is because in Super Luigi U, the time is always set to 100 seconds. And when you enter a boss door in that game, 100 extra seconds gets added to your time. So when the timer hits 000 and you enter a boss door, 100 seconds gets added before the death sound plays. And when the death sound plays, it causes all music to stop. Which is why the entrance to the boss airship is silent only playing sounds. (at least from what I know of)

[@arekrekas213]

3:47 this isn't actually a glitch - this happens because the checkpoint in this level is affected by gravity it's an optional tweak you can apply to it and i think it's used in a few levels this gravity tweak makes the checkpoint stick to any kind of terrain collision (including ice blocks) and fall if there isnt any ground below it

[@AStartShow]

Interesting :) thank you

[@alexx4992]

i knew that 😣😣😣

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

It's still a glitch, because I don't think the ice block was intended to affect it. But that's still a good point.

[@doomcardten1799]

@@OtakuUnitedStudio I guess it would be more of an exploit? Everything is working exactly as intended, it's just the combination produces an unexpected effect.

[@Kitsuna_Gacha]

​​​​@@OtakuUnitedStudioThe ice block counts as solid ground as players can stand on it. If the devs didn't intend the checkpoint to be able to move with the ground, they wouldn't have programmed gravity into certain ones. This is probably possible with Snake Block Tower's CP too but IDK how you'd set that up.

[@DylanBreakdown56]

2:13 I did that with my sister, nephew, and brother on accident 😂😂😂

[@AStartShow]

Nice haha

[@NathanWoyessa]

Holy cow I was thinking image playing this with your sibling and this happens

[@stretch7293]

Seeing that the timer glitch where it gets stuck at 000 still works is a mystery I never thought I'd see solved. It was talked about in a Ceave Gaming video and was presumed to be patched there, but the fact that it was frame perfect prevented him from pulling it off. Nicely done doing it yourself though!

[@Zetaggwp]

Thought the same. So now the theoretical lowest score for the game is lower. I'm qnot sure which levels have pipes to actually give a number but it is lower.

[@MarvinBretschneider.]

That timer glitch is something else.

[@wgwebb]

The Rumors are that Toadette still spins to this day.

[@AStartShow]

She's spinning out there somewhere! haha

[@joshslater2426]

I’m gonna sound old and stubborn, but I like the NSMB series. The four games are quite distinct from each other and have their own praises. There were only 4 games over 6 years, so really people have been too hard on them. I wish they could’ve done a couple more.

[@AStartShow]

I like them too, not as much as other games in the series, but they have their charm :)

[@M64bros]

Same here, I absolutely loved the first three games More than the Wii U version, However, I did hear that new Super Luigi U did save the Game and made it better

[@gordonwallace8945]

But super Mario wonder is new super Mario bros switch😊😊😊😊

[@tzarg]

Did I miss something? Did people stop liking Super Mario all of a sudden? What you mean by "people have been too hard on them"?

[@C0D97]

A lot of people agree that the NSMB line of games continued for FAR too long

[@twipplo]

You really are back this time! It doesn’t seem to be just one video, you really are back to making these, and we’re so happy! Keep up the amazing work! ^w^

I used to watch many Son of a Glitch videos back in the day! I'm very happy to see that this series still exist!!

[@CoolModderJaydonX]

4:29 I don't think that's a glitch. It might be a checkpoint that is actually affected by gravity. Considering it's on top of a moving platform, that makes sense. 9:30 I'm pretty sure it _is_ intended, considering Acorn Plains-Blooper did a similar thing.

[@ErisEntropy]

So happy to have more episodes. This show and your style of commentary are so iconic.

[@AStartShow]

That's too kind, but thank you :)

[@memorableman3709]

Man, I wish I could support you more. You are kind of a fun part of my childhood that is somehow still going strong amidst the hellscape that is present day youtube, so it always makes me happy when I see a new episode. But I suppose I'll just stick to liking and watching for now. Really glad that you got back your channel after the hacking incident!

I'm quite surprised the switch version didn't get any patch updates!?!?

[@IvanFranco120]

Actually, the chinese version was updated to 1.0.1 to revert back the POW block texture to the original form. In 1.0.0, it had an different one.

Such a pleasant surprise to see another son of a glitch video. I’ve been getting into mod development recently, and these videos were definitely an inspiration all those year ago (feels like ages)

Amazing video. I hope you'll get back to the same amount of views as in the past !

Im so glad you're back when I heard you were hacked I thought well that's it no more fun glitches to try.

[@Illusca]

tbh i'm quite liking were the series is going recently the new editing style and intro make the series fit in with modern youtube a bit more while not feeling a little forced like the spiderman 2 video, still enjoyed it btw but yk, glitch videos really were a big thing in like 2013-2016 and like 10 years later ig people aren't watching them as much but with how the series is slowly evolving with that change and recent hacking attention it seems pretty promising. keep it up tho been really enjoying the videos recently

[@demongamer_IX]

4:28 I think this happens because the flag in that level is standing on a unique platform unlike others. So, it’s more likely the platform shares similar properties like the ice block. Resulting in this glitch. But, hey that’s just a theory. A Code theory!
