Glitchy scores

Exciting-ness scale: 2 out of 10
Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Go to Forest of Illusion 1 as Cape Mario and get past the middle gate. Go to a place where there are many wrigglers and koopas, by the key and lock. Now, jump from badguy to badguy, holding Y and B to make you float slower and have more control. Try not to jump on shells or non-shelled koopas because that can stop your flight. Now, as you bounce back and forth, you will slowly rack up points and eventually begin to get extra lives. When you are getting lives from the koopas, try jumping onto a yellow wriggler. The point value you get will be made of all these weird symbols and will give you tons of points. There are many weird combos of symbols possible.

Really fast music
Note on the discovery of this glitch
Exciting-ness scale: 4 out of 10
Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Go to Funky (the last level of the Special Zone) with a Yoshi. Go next to the first green berry but don't eat it. Wait for the timer to get to 99. When the music gets quicker to try to hurry you on, eat the berry, setting the timer above 100. Now, run to the next green berry and wait for the timer to go below 99 and speed up the music again. Eat the berry and go onto the next one. Repeat this for as long as you can, and you'll hear that the music gets pretty crazy.

Musicless overworld
Note on the discovery of this glitch
Exciting-ness scale: 4 out of 10
Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Beat the Sunken Ghost Ship a second time. Once you beat it, there will be no music in the overworld. When you walk from place to place, you'll still make noises, and if you enter an area with different music, like the Forest of Illusion or a pipe, then the music will be restored. This probably happens because the ship-collapsing animation was supposed to happen, but it couldn't; the programmers did not expect you to do that level multiple times.

Fall through a wall
Discovered by: SolarCloud
Exciting-ness scale: 4 out of 10
Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Go to Valley of Bowser 4 with a Yoshi before you enter the level. It also helps to be caped. Go through the level until you encounter the block with a vine that is after a lava section. Jump onto the block and then jump at the wall. When you hit the wall, jump off of Yoshi (hit A) and jump to the right. You should land on top of the wall, but the camera won't follow you. Now, walk to the right and you'll fall through the wall to your death.

Where's Mario?
Mario sadly regards the 1-up as he falls to his doom




Yoshi through pipes
Discovered by: Connie and Wilma of CGS
Exciting-ness scale: 2 out of 10
Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Go to a level with moving pipes, such as Chocolate Island 5, past the boxed holding items/enemies and the water. You should also be riding a Yoshi. Jump above a moving pipe and jump off of Yoshi (hit A). Jump to another pipe or area. Yoshi should fall onto the pipe and then move with it. When the pipe moves upwards, Yoshi gets shoved into the pipe, and when it moves downwards, Yoshi temporarily floats in the air and then falls.
