Weirdest Levels Ever # 3

When you're playing a game on the hardest difficulty, there are times when it becomes so determined to take you down, it'll throw stuff you've never seen before in the adventure. It's an exhilarating experience.
However, even when you think you've become adjusted a challenging game's unique brand of difficulty and mayhem, it can still find a new way to knock you for six...

[@dillontam9752]

As for why World 9 exists apparently Miyamoto heard about stories of glitched out worlds (a la World -1) and was intrigued enough to add a proper "glitch world" in SMB Lost Levels. (Fun Fact: In the original SMB2 to reach World A-D you had to beat the game 8 times consecutively. BRUTAL.)

[@fiammaorsmth9840]

I'm working on beating it 8 times

[@blockeontheleafeon]

By "Consecutivly" do you mean No Deaths? If so, that's Impossible. Who will EVER find that out? Let alone BEAT IT 8 TIMES IN A ROW WITHOUT DYING!!!

[@gamerguyandsomenumbers]

Dillon Tam he means you have to beat the game 8 times without a game over, but you CAN warp

[@gamerguyandsomenumbers]

1HMatt not for worlds A-D

[@gamerguyandsomenumbers]

Dillon Tam HOW!? Thank goodness I have the Allstars version where you can save...

[@gravity8120]

World 9-3 seems like something out of a creepy pasta...

[@DetectiveNyx]

"and den bowzar showed up but he had hyperrealistic blood all down his face and my snes made wierd noises"

[@ikillzoneblas7423]

it's the dead meme, it's the dead meme, it's he dead meme, it's the dead meme...

[@KaedeLanyo]

It was a little unnerving at first, but then i realized that, nowadays, it kinda just looks like a bad Mario Maker level.

[@toniconge7003]

Mario 3D World gave Bowser more of a city/casino theme for the final world I thought that was pretty awesome.

[@blaze4109]

Unrelated

[@The_Fabricator]

it is related: 4:57 this person is saying that mario 3d world "rocked the boat" for the last world. at least i think so

[@bluerious5475]

Toni Conge Also a samurai castle for Super Mario Odyssey

[@courtemanche437]

Technically Odyssey did have a lava part right before the final battle against Bowser though.

[@isthisapikachu]

Bowser channeled his inner weeb in odyssey.

[@nicolask.3825]

8:18 Nice underwater fireworks.

[@NOTHlNG]

Shouldn't we call these then as...waterworks? :D

[@mariomythes2807]

*Underwaterworks*

[@Dukstless]

Apparently entire World 9 is based on a glitched World you can find in the Famicom version of Super Mario Bros.

[@guffingtonreal]

I forgot about that.

[@leoleo4469]

LunarRay One of the levels looks like theres the -1 glitch end Pipe that sends you back to the start

[@TheOtakuGamingBrony64]

I knew they looked familiar from somewhere.

[@CANADAKRUSH1]

The tennis game

[@okey7281]

It was also Miyamoto's response to there being a rumored "World 9" in the original Mario Bros.

[@gingerkays7362]

So I guess that platforms at the end of Super Mario 3D Land's last level and pipes at the end of Champion's Road spelling out "Thank You" are a throwback to this?

[@RickRoller90001]

Super Mario World does this as well. "YOU ARE A SUPER PLAYER !!"

[@gingerkays7362]

Oh yeah, I forgot about that one!

[@RaceBandit]

@Rickroller90001: Speaking of which, if you Game Over in World 9 of the Famicom version, the game tells you you are a super player.

[@watermelondreams5883]

I wish Nintendo brought back the minus world/world 9 from Lost Levels/World 36 from the original game.

[@marylovesdavidcook]

Watermelon Dreams World -1 had a cameo in the lore of Super Paper Mario.

[@blockeontheleafeon]

I brought back the -1 World in one of my Level's. It's not EXCACTLY like it but It's Underwater AND it loops like in the Actual game.

[@GooberPipebomb]

Wolfgalaxy The Underwhere (a.k.a. mario HELL is briefly referred to as "Game Over" and "World -1"

[@doc-merciless5701]

theory: world 9 was caught in a flash flood hence why many land structures are found underwater and the bowsers castle missing walls walls is because his castle collapsed leaving only bowser the rest of minions were lost to the flood

[@rufflesthe1825]

And world 9-3 is in the castle from 9-2

[@dragonempress8367]

doc- merciless wait then how are koopas perfectly fine under water?!

[@GregoryMom]

Dragon empress They’re TURTLES.

[@brandonwilliams6119]

That’s a fucking Creepy Theory

[@Zyra-Not-The-LOL-One]

World 9 is based off of a glitched world. MYTHBUSTERS

[@notthelettere2951]

Good video, as always, though I'd like to point out that while you did say that The Lost levels looked "graphically the same" as the original Mario 1, that only really applies to the version in All-Stars that you've shown here; the NES version did have some different sprites.

[@MrCjosue24]

"Ah spaghetti" "Ah Raviolli" "Ah Glup!"

[@Chillwave6]

Aah, mamma gLUP GLUB *BLUB!*

[@ienglishwell3374]

My favorite pasta

[@TheDash456]

*Bowser iris with bowser Laugh*

[@hexidecimark]

World 9 happens because Mario has totally abandoned his job as a plumber.

[@ImSquiggs]

The windy springboard part from SMB:Lost Levels still gives me nightmares to this day

[@MasterKnightDH]

アリガトウ！ When I think about it, SMB1 does manage storytelling simply by having castles around at the start of stages, which also indirectly showcases how overrun the Mushroom Kingdom is by Bowser's forces. It's still not big a story to begin with, but it's an impressive effect at least.

[@p1nh3dlarry72]

Does anybody else think that 9-3 looks like the entrance to a temple in Zelda 2?

[@greenteesouo]

I think that World 9 might be based on the Famicom version of World -1, which was different in the US release (it was just one of the other levels that looped endlessly) Also, the one thing that was really weird for me was the Bill Blasters never firing in 9-1.

[@BohepansTheThird]

I guess they're not such killer cannons when underwater. Maybe Bowser hadn't got his shipment of Water Bombs from Hyrule, yet?

[@jacob-nm4ns]

"pierced the heavens" I have so many memories of killing beings beyond human understanding.... in videogames.

[@SlurpyTheDog]

Tetris DX brings a whole new meaning to "I can't reach Pink Color"

[@Gofer925]

Man, i love weird af levels in games. Wish more had them in. Pretty much the only one i know is sector Z in Iji, and i've played quite a few games.

[@siyahseeker]

I think the aim if World 9 is to give the player a "dreamy and surreal" feeling explaining why there are out of place enemies underwater, or there's a castle out on the overworld. It's getting them ready for the challenge that us Worlds A through D, the true final levels.

[@pkhydro2895]

World 9 was apparently added in by Shigeru Miyamoto was a nod to World -1 in the Japanese Mario 1

[@TheJadeFist]

It's like they were test levels, and they just left them in for funsies as an easter egg.

[@CopiousDoinksLLC]

"No ground, but the whole level is underwater so no big deal" See, I always found that really unsettling as a kid. I don't know why but the thought that there was an entire huge body of water underneath the level with something living down there always terrified me.

[@riffsix]

The style of pixel art that the Lost Levels used is still my favorite, and is why I prefer the much older level editor in Super Mario Brothers Flash (a fan made game) to the official Mario Maker that came out years later for a console drastically more powerful than Adobe Flash.

[@ZioNello_]

So fireworks work in water...

[@SonofTiamat]

I could never get very far on Lost Levels. I only made it to 4-4 and gave up. I saw the bonus levels on SDA and always thought they were pretty cool, especially the final castle with its Gothic look.

[@bjgeantil]

I hated 4-4

[@melldotexe5209]

7:17 "Haaah, mama- BLUGH BLUGH BLOOU-"

[@Kribyking]

-I'm dead-

[@footsoldiergw4125]

(Insert Super Mario 64 Bowser Laugh here)

[@BohepansTheThird]

Super Mario Brothers For Super Players! Yes! Definitely glad to see its weird and wacky World 9 come up in a video like this. Good times, good times! I think the Piranha Plant you pointed out will properly stick its head out of the surface of the water in the Famicom Disk System/Virtual Console version - but don't hold me to that, it has been a while.

[@papyrussemi2848]

5:02 Thay's where Odyssey comes in.

[@okayokey]

Eh... not really. It was kind of easy.

[@Evarace]

*And on Friday...* Git : FUCK I really love your humor Git. I cannot wait to see your next vid :)

[@laylover7621]

9-3 is awesome, damn that really is like a deliberate glitch world.

[@markganus1085]

the red and green spring platforms are supposed to mimic mario and luigi's skills in this game. Luigi jumps highest, so the green spring sends you flying.

[@zeldasmetaknight]

Wario land 4 has super hard mode that changes some old parts and adds in new enemies. There's also Kaizo Mario 64 that completely changes the game, and in a not so happy Super Mario 64

[@MisterCrowley]

I think I have a reasonable explanation for all this: It's Mario, when is it ever supposed to make sense?

[@mfdoomguy3786]

Realism =/= Rules. For example, you can't magically summon rat swarms in real life, but you can in Dishonored. Even then, you can't do EVERYTHING in Dishonored because its magic still has rules. That's why you can't pee magma, for instance. However, World 9 is basically a nutbag criminal whose sole purpose is breaking in existence.

[@qty1315]

It's already been explained though. It was a response to the famous glitch-level in Mario. Miyamoto liked the idea of a glitch level, so he made a 'proper' glitch level in the next Mario game he made.

[@Drayiss]

And yet despite the weirdness displayed in this video, the world is even more bizarre than you're letting on. In the famicom version, the colour palette used in 9-2 was so atrociously ugly, and in 9-3 you could jump above the ceiling and bypass Bowser, removing any remote threat in the level. Also, there's a vine in that same level that leads to a coin bonus room, but the top of the L-shaped pipe leads to the same place. But it plays the pipe animation when entering the room despite the lack of a pipe! What is this?!

[@royaldayz18]

These levels look like they were made in Mario Maker. Using things in unintended ways to make weird clusterfs of levels

[@Titan360]

7:10 Dark.

[@lemonadesnake]

6:40 It predicted Mario Maker!

[@chrisw5654]

4:08 or Hurricane Poop as some people would call it due to the heavy wind and the brown that is blowing across the screen.

[@Takumi_Did_Nothing_Wrong]

If they haven't already, Nintendo should make a Mario Game where the Bowser levels are underwater.

[@cortexauth4094]

That's clearly not glitched or uncomplete level! It is surely well crafted out

[@Mike14264]

I like to think World 9 is to the folks from Mushroom Kingdom what Atlantis is to us: a mystical, sunken land that was once on the surface.

[@fenris91]

In the FDS/virtual console releases of Super Mario 2 if you Game Over in World 9 you’d get a personal thank you for playing from Mario and the staff....instead of continue/retry!

[@dragon666777]

I believe World 9 is based off of the FDS version of Super Mario Bros's Minus World, or some other similar glitch level. I always thought of it as a reward for the best players to get an even higher score, since it loops forever until you die on the Famicom version, but that was lost when it was made into an actually beatable world in Super Mario All Stars. The text in the Famicom version also calls it "Fantasy World", so there's probably that to add to why it's so weird

[@queslife5641]

World 9 seems like a parody to the minus world

[@doomslayerobama]

Maybe World 9 is *THE LOST LEVELS OF THE LOST LEVELS* *MINDBLOWN*

[@phaneronym]

Maybe World 9 exists because A, B, C, and D were all hexadecimal values and levels needed to fill the gap between 8 and A.

[@acapeIIIa_callilulelo]

Thank you mario! But the missing underwater castles are... um..

[@Dr0dd]

Well why haven't I heard of this earlier? Probably should have played more Lost Levels. That's an awesome reference to World -1, where the land levels are also underwater. The last level seems like something right out of a videogame creepypasta, which is just fitting since the original -1 always seemed more like a playground legend than something real.

[@zsomboregri758]

9-3 was even weirder in the NES version because it was pale white

[@4snekwolfire813]

World 9 is a reward for the super player that doesn't use warps.

[@danibanani15]

World 9 - 1 in Mario Lost Levels makes me think of somebody who messed around with stuff underwater in Mario Maker.

[@SupahTheSnowy]

World 9 is Super Mario Maker in a nutshell.

[@Sanksuel]

A B C and D levels are the very first stages creates on Super Mario Maker, Miyamoto just having fun on water physics of Super Mario... and then someone put in the game thinking it is real stages...

[@dragonempress8367]

When the background turned red on Tetris I always got scared as a kid. Even today it scares me.

[@vcatnation4242]

9:21 Welcome to Super Mario Maker!

[@Aranmath]

Here lies Mario. Molested by a Blooper.

[@stoneaged9415]

2018 most outlandish Mario game to date.

[@GameAlicornLuna]

I believe 9-4 was supposed to be more of a cast of characters stage and a thank you.

[@blockeontheleafeon]

9:50 *Insert Kissing Sound Here* 9:58 See? I KNEW they meant Thank You.

[@WhiteFangofWar]

Interesting... World 9 might not be as rough as the rest of the game, but you'd be playing on tenterhooks if you had only life to get through it. A better fit for the idea of games that show you new things on the highest difficulty setting would be the brand new enemy types seen in the Hard Mode of Kirby's Adventure, or the brutal flaming skulls introduced in Castlevania 3's 'Second Quest' (similar to Medusa Heads, but they turn around and zoom in on you when they get close).

[@saltocorto]

I wonder if its meant to be a throwback to the minus world

[@Sayo_Toshimoto]

Maybe the real lost levels were the friends we made along the way.

[@dr00py70]

The ancestor of Mario Maker.

[@Chillwave6]

The World 9-3: Super Mario Maker predicted.

[@コリンウォールド]

+whoisthisgit have you played F.E Awakening or Birthright because in Awakening Paralogue 23 is absolutely ridiculous 50 enemies and 30 allies which means you will probably have around 5-10 extremely weak troops who will get 1 shot if you bring them. Plus the boss Priam has swordbreaker lancebreaker and axebreaker. In Conquest Chapter 19 you fight large amount of Kitsune who have high evasion pass and illusion meaning only they can strike first and with pass you can't block off your weak units from them and you can't kill them before they get within range. I think there is a lot you could do about these 2 levels for a hardest level ever video.

[@logicaloverdrive8197]

4:59 what about 3d world? The final world is in the sky with a casino neon look and a bitching swing theme, the final battle took place on a skyscraper while bowser uses your power ups to fight you.

[@juhaniaho6698]

1:11 I see it more as a Purgatory, Mr. Git.

[@GeometryDashMegaMan]

GAME OVER PLEASE TRY AGAIN

0:13 Don't even get me STARTED on the Demon Levels in Geometry Dash. They are Literally Impossible unless you have Master Reflexes. Also I don't know where to put this but in Dash Till Puff 2, I beat Clutterfunk 2 Impossible mode the Day I unlocked it (Which is Today.)

[@MrBuinhubinh]

Lmao

[@scuraballthetrueone]

What's the music at the end of your videos???

[@DogeisCut]

the world 9 levels are flooded old levels!

[@myapika5529]

The world nine is an error left in the universe after Rosalina resets everything in Super Mario Galaxy, so they are the Lost Leves the title warn us about, when you're there it's all bugged because they're the rest of the last universe, Mario don't know this, but he needs to delete that world so the living being stop suffering and the bugs don't affect anything else, that's why it says "Arigato!" in the end of it and is also why Mario have only one life, because if he dies he bugs and the universe is doomed. Bowser it's in there because he wasn't in the reseted universe and ended up deleted too, that's why it's a shock when Bowser is back in Luigi's Mansion, that isn't actually Bowser, it's something created by King Boo to get revenge on Mario and Luigi after invading they're houses in Super Mario World. So the timeline goes like this: Super Mario World-->Super Mario Galaxy-->Lost Levels-->Luigi's Mansion Making dumb theories truly is a lot of fun

[@KnakuanaRka]

I’m pretty sure this whole sequence is a spoof of glitches like the Minus World. Good enough of an explanation for you?

[@fr3nchtoastcrunch364]

Maybe World 9 is World -1 from the original...... Oh wait, that can't be. World -1 never ends xD

[@mentalabuse9982]

[@BlazingLarvesta]
