Nice! Also, this isn’t Mario, but in AC:NH, when you get a squid, it says it’s off the hook, an Easter egg and reference to Splatoon 2.

Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA) is just as “true” of a Mario title as any other Mario game. It was originally developed as a Mario Prototype and later received the Yume Kōjō branding. When being released in the US, they put Mario back in and changed some other elements to fit. The game has been rereleased as a Mario title in Japan on many occasions and even got a Japan only sequel, BS Super Mario USA. Multiple enemies and other elements from this game have become staples of the Mario franchise. Shy Guys, Bob-ombs, Pokeys, Ninjis and even Birdo are all from here and are major parts of Mario’s World to this day. Mario waking up from a dream at the end of this game wasn’t a reference to the fact that it wasn’t a true Mario game - it’s to show that the entire game took place within the Dream World of Subcon, as the manual directly states.

btw, those mysterious figures in Galaxy 2? Those are known in the files as hell valley sky trees, which death valley I assume part of that name is also the file name for the galaxy they appear in that game. It's believed they are tree spirits. They also are programmed to be a set distance away from the player character, so no matter how close you try to get to them (even through cheatcodes), you will never reach them.

One thing you may have wanted to mention about "Super Mario World" for the SNES about the starworld thing is that in the "Gamboy Advanced Version" which alows for better saving I might add, is that after you beat the game the title sequence with Princess Peach changes to indicate you have won the game and the characters can now enjoy their vacation, and that there is a video sequence where you actually see Mario and Luigi tossing the heads that replace the Koopa shells out of their balloon, oh and you should definatly mention how depending on the color of the shell Yoshi eats can determine what either holding onto the shell will do or spitting it out will cause.

Just so you know the Piantisimo 2 character in "Super Mario Sunshine" was not meant to be a Zelda Easter egg but is supposed to be a famous Italian Marathon runner, though they may have used to running man from the Zelda Games as a Model for the character as that would have been easier for the programmers, also you should know that there was supposed to be more lines with Mario actually talking in the game but those lines were written out in the final draft but the content is I think available somewhere online

[@m.e.9874]

Fun fact: toads were called "Mushroom Retainers" until smb2 usa in 1989

[@UserAJO1]

If you ask me the thing about Luigi being playable in Mario 64 should have been something they added to the Switch re-release and still could as in the form of DLC(Downloadable Content) kind of like how if you hold L+R in "New Super Mario Bros" for the DS you can play as Luigi instead of Mario, also think that this would make up for the corrected glitches in the re-release that "Speed Runners" were unhappy about in the Unlimited Backward jump being corrected, though I for one am glad they did that as using glitches to speedrun in my mind again may only lead to more problems in the gaming system which would most likely affect other games as well

[@UserAJO1]

Just in case I have never mentioned this to you before is that while the American Manual says the Mushroom People were turned into bricks, it could be a miss-translation from the Japanese Manual which may have meant something different like the land was turned from Mushrooms into bricks or that they meant blocks instead of bricks as the blocks are unbreakable.

Another Lost Levels easter egg. if you touch the flag when your coin count is a multiple of 11 and the last digit of the timer is the same (Example: 77 coins when the last digit is 7), you will get a 1-UP

Hey copycat I really enjoyed this video. But you know Super Paper Mario has a really cool Easter eggs in a level to.

I had this one game in the gameboy that had many mario games in it like playing as donky junior to save DK. Another one with yoshis cookies, etc. Edit: I actually remember the secret to play as Luigi. I was in a daycare and a kid brought his ds playing the game. I wanted to tell him, so I told him if he knows and he didn’t. I was telling him it’s true, so he let me demonstrate it. I did get nervous because I was hoping I remember it and then I hear Luigi’s voice. He looked very amazed, then the next day he wanted me to teach him and kept his ds on all night. I don’t know why but I felt happy helping.

12:43 that's semi true in an interview iirc with iwata, because of constraints it was a decision on whether to keep Luigi as a character but have simple level designs or scrap luigi for more complex level designs. Ultimately luigi was scrapped

@@praquenomereal Nintendo never said that as far as I can tell. There was one guy on reddit who had asked Nintendo about the "L is real" thing and got a response. The responder said that the text is meaningless, and the developers put it there as a joke. Now, as a Nintendo of America "Game Play Counselor" I'm a bit skeptical of how much insider development info he had access to. The writing may well be gibberish filler text that they knew would be crunched to the point of illegibility. If not though, the best reading of it that I've seen is "A secret star lie here ~" that Sean above referred to. There's no definitive answer though.

1:11 - 1:26 The brick blocks Mario could smash were never Toads. The manual of the game on page 8 says "If you come across mushrooms who have been turned into bricks or made invisible, they reward you by giving you a power boost. With each boost, Mario changes into a different, more powerful Mario as shown below." Below the description are the pics of the power ups. The only blocks that were Toads were the ones that have them and we know those kinds of blocks don't break. So no, Mario wasn't committing mass murder by smashing them to pieces, they were just always blocks of bricks.

The “Mario killing toads” theory has been disproven for some time. In the same manual, it states “If you come across any Mushrooms *who have been turned into bricks or made invisible,* they reward you by giving you a power boost.” This proves that only certain toads were turned into bricks, and those bricks can’t be broken, meaning Mario isn’t killing any mushroom folk.
