Game & Watch: Super Mario Bros ALL 35 Secrets and Hidden Bits!

[@cosmicjenny4508]

Just in case anyone missed it, Mario fights Bowser at exactly 9:13 because the Japanese release date for the original Super Mario Bros. on the NES was September 13th 1985. That’s my favourite easter egg of the bunch, to be honest!

[@CasiniLoogi]

Timestamp is 3:23

[@AlexTheNG]

I clicked the 9:13 only to realize the video length is 4:57

[@Mr._Mints]

That’s awesome! My birthday is September 13 (although, not in 1985) so I especially appreciate that one! 😄

It's a pity there are more then. First: There's a third go-to-sleep screen for "Ball" showing Mario juggling balls. Second, if you long-press "A" on the Super Mario Bros. (both games) start screen, you'll get infinite lives. So I guess this video doesn't get "all 35" easter eggs.

You forgot a few but listed a lot that I didnt know about. You can press B on Super Mario Bros Title Screen and change the world Holding A while on SMB or SMB 2 will grant you infinite lives Holding A during mario juggle will change mario to luigi If you wait 3 mins at the clock screen then it will show an image of mario sleeping. These are the only missed ones

[@TheYouTubeGame]

Just to nitpick because why not, the first one about changing the world in Super Mario Bros. is more a feature of the game itself than an Easter egg - the game's state must always be one of a beaten game, but without the buzzy beetles everywhere.

[@MarioMario369]

There are 2 more images at the clock screen while waiting 3 mins. that only pop up at specific time periods, specifically between 12 p.m to 1 p.m & 11 p.m to 12 a.m!

[@KetwunsGamingPad]

So I analysed this moonwalk:...it is actually a programmed trigger that Mario/Luigi is going to plan to increment the clock by one minute! It's a prepared time interval depending on the type of minute as well...he needs more time to increment/change two digits or more as an example and had to sync perfectly!

[@LuvzToLol21]

That's also why they don't let you spawn enemies in three last 20 seconds of every minute

@@TheEasterEggHunter Don't know if it counts much as an Easter Egg, but from what I heard some how Nintendo managed to bungle the song for other languages outside of the English, Japanese and Dutch setting. So if you have your language set to Spanish for example, the song will play in a language that isn't Spanish (like maybe German). The affected languages are Spanish, French, Italian and German.
