I Busted 15 Myths In Super Mario 64 #1

The butterflies you punch for 1-ups can also turn into bombs...

yeah didt know lmao

[@mercury2118]

It's true according to an official mario book.

[@isaacw.brooks8417]

Super Mario 64 was one of the first games I ever played. So, all of these were interesting and cool to learn, even if some of them I knew already.

[@drwily]

yeah did my best to cover fun and unknown stuff, but its pretty hard with a game this old

The one-up mushroom looks so cute in super Mario 64

[@connt1nu3]

At least in the DS version, if you utilize the canons to beat Koopa the Quick, he will accuse you of cheating.

hanging from the first bridge in Bob-Omb Battlefield was literally one of the first things i learned about SM64...you can even 'pop up' on Top of the bridge, if you move over to the Wall underneath before releasing A

[@JustinTheClaw]

7:50 This only works in the Japan-exclusive "Shindou" or Rumble Pak Version. It also works on Super Mario 3D All-Stars because they used that version for the port.

Ok, the penguin was even better, when the other one was dropped her expression was like "Not my kid"

[@AlexxxMYLSince2013]

It would be cool to check if this Myths are true in the NDS version For example in the DS version Mario no longer talks in his sleep

[@drwily]

hmmmm maybe i can do some sort of cross over myth busting thing

[@SumovomTurmOriginal]

12:09 I did it in a livestream, too. You should mention that Yoshi will only be here if you have 120 Stars. Before that you will only find the few one-up-mushrooms lying around.

[@drwily]

oh snap he isnt there than didnt know

[@liruenth]

Not really a myth but a fun thing you can do is die and fall into a cannon and you can shoot the cannon while dead. You can't collect stars or coins though and you die as soon as you land on the ground. An easy place to do it is in the wet dry world's cannon by aiming all the way left and up. You'll bonk off the wall, land next to the cannon taking damage and then fall back into the cannon.

[@drwily]

oehhh gonna try this

[@SD120TOMB]

Uhhh, it’s not a myth, I’ve seen this happen before.

[@EnlightenedLazor]

#7: I’m confident if you kill the Lakitu enemy in Tiny Huge Island, your camera angle is forced to the Mario setting. You can’t change it back, until you leave the level. It’s something I remember happening to me too as a kid.

[@drwily]

yeah but apperantly thats not really a thing, its just an in game camera setting

[@RoseQuartz692]

And the Lakitu in THI is just a regular Lakitu

[@GODOFAWSOMENESS1]

The camera man is following you the whole time as shown in the mirror room

[@TheBlackSeraph]

@@GODOFAWSOMENESS1 The mirror room doesn't actually use a mirror, it's basically a "window" with duplicated objects and sprites, so the Lakitu you see in the mirror room is almost certainly a different sprite that's just mirroring your cameraman's actions.

[@SonicJrandSarah]

I think that when I was playing this game at a friend's house, that friend suggested that I could race with something else besides the penguin. But I've played this game plenty of times and the only thing I ever raced on the slide was the penguin. I am not sure where they got the idea of racing something else. What else could you race?

[@drwily]

not sure tbh, nothing else as far as i know

[@centurosproductions8827]

There's a one-up that appears. You could race that I suppose.

[@chiggerjester1626]

I can't remember the requirements, but you can re-race him by going back to that level later on and he is very fat... maybe that's what they were referring to? I think you had to either beat Bowser (like the last level), get every star in that stage, or get every star in the game to do it, but if you go back to the level and the slide, he'll show up, actually comment that he might have let himself go a bit, and accept your challenge for another race. He doesn't go much faster, but it is really hard to get past him if he gets ahead of you since he takes up so much of the area. This also might be specific to the DS version, but I don't think it is.

[@SonicJrandSarah]

@@chiggerjester1626 This was before the DS version even existed and I don't think they even knew about the penguin getting fat. I certainly didn't.

12:10 yoshi is not there unless you have 120 stars so you will just get the three lying around, also you might want to check for version differences as hitting both shoulder buttons on the title screen for an easter egg cannot be done on early versions of the game and because the version with that easter egg patched the bLJ most people don't use it and might be confuse

I'm a year late and don't know if you've covered it on a different episode, but here goes nothing lol. If you use the teleport to the top of the hill during the Koopa foot race, he will call you out as a cheater and not give you the star.

[@drwily]

it is on the list! but got a lot to cover so i will do my best

[@wyattgames15]

This is actually true Mith so if you sometimes punch butterflies in Mario 64, they don’t always give you wan ups. Sometimes they become bombs and chase you. This is really true test it.

[@SD120TOMB]

Oh yeah, tried it before, it actually works.

[@threeworldheroes]

for the butterfly myth, while it's true, you have to be carefull as they can also become bombs

[@SuperNickid]

@Dr.Wily: You miss something Can koopa the quick be kill, the answer is Yes, but not when he looks normal size, if he look tiny then it is the only time you can kill koopa the quick, he as a shell but when you kill him he does not leave a shell, so that is how you can tell you kill koopa the quick, in Tiny huge island, when you are in the tiny version go to the place where koopa the quick is with any star you will see him training. You can only race him in tiny huge island in Star 3 in huge island, if you go too fast while raceing koopa the quick he can sometimes fall of the map, and some people mind count this as killing koopa the quick, but not really because he continous running on the death barrier trying to get back-up on the track, but he can't since they are no solid wall to help him climb when koopa the quick fall of the map even thought you win, you will not get a power star from him since he can't finish the race.

[@SD120TOMB]

I think you’re one of those whom I called “foolish” earlier and even said it’s most concerning. A Koopa Interactive NPC is not the same as a Koopa Enemy! Also Tiny Huge Island?? Really? You can run into a goomba and take damage but the goomba dies anyways. Same with the koopa. When you’re huge only. When you’re tiny, the huge goombas behave like their 2D versions. Get your facts straight. Kill the guy and you won’t get the star. You’re better off exiting the course and respawning back in.

[@TickedOffPriest]

You can actually kill Koopa the Quick when you find him at his home.

[@drwily]

hahahhaha

[@Loganberry-69]

6:54,no!not a second impossible coin!the first one was hard enough!

[@sean-keykong5090]

You can collect stars out of order, but can you race koopa the quick in tiny huge islands before you race him in bomb bomb battlefield and would he have difficulty dialog?

[@SD120TOMB]

No, he won’t have difficulty in dialogs, why? The lore doesn’t appear sequentially. That said, try Bowser in the Fire Sea, then do Bowser in the Dark World. Same thing. Lore is pretty much inconsistent when all you’re doing is pure gameplay. It’s a known fact. You can even try playing the Big Bully as your first boss, same situation. So, yes go ahead, by all means. Do the Tiny Huge Island Koopa race before the Bobomb Battlefield one if you insist. The races are inconsistent in lore because their stars need to be loaded first. That’s a gameplay setting. Only then on selecting the said stars concerning the NPC, you can race the said NPC, ergo Koopa The Quick.

I punched a butterfly 10 times and no 1up, could super mario 64 really be personalized?!?

[@jb6002]

No it's not. The butterfly thing is only certain areas and the hitbox is very small it's very hard to hit them. But be careful, not all turn into 1 ups, a lot of them turn into explosions and can kill you lol

[@jdh9419]

Uh, I punched the wall in myth 14, and it didn’t break. I did this on the NSO version, so the one Nintendo recognizes most. Is your copy personalized?

[@Waluigi_Robotnik]

I never knew about the mother penguin reacting if you took her baby back away, also I guess I'm not as "evil" as I think I am... I never threw that little sh💩t off the edge even after the hassle of finding it, if I struggle to find that penguin this time, it's doomed when I do get my hands on it, I remember that level was annoying (nothing compared to Rainbow ride though, I hated that place) I'd still like to see the myth I mentioned in a previous comment, involving that killer piano in Big Boo's Haunt... Entertaining and interesting video as always, Wily, can't wait for the next one

[@RoseQuartz692]

What Myth?

[@Waluigi_Robotnik]

@RoseQuartz692 I suggested 2 myths for Dr. Wily to try out, 1 for "Mario 64" and another for "Tears Of The Kingdom" Tears Of The Kingdom myth : if you fuse bananas to a boomerang, will Yiga clan members react to it and get distracted? Mario 64 myth : Can you ground pound on the Killer piano in Big Boo's Haunt, breaking it and obtaining a 1-up mushroom? The first of those 2 myths was just something I was wondering about... the Mario 64 myth however is one I heard of back when I was 12 but wasn't very good at Mario 64 and got killed before I could jump to perform the ground pound, it's been so long since I played the game and now I'm finally going to do it, with my 21st birthday celebrations finally over with I'll hopefully have the time to play it after so long Wily actually responded to me about these myths saying he'll try them both out
