Tips & Tricks
Access Pianta Village Anytime
This trick allows you to access Pianta Village without the rocket nozzle.
Get behind the Shine Gate in Delfino Plaza, and jump onto the first small wall. Face away from the gate, backflip (quickly press the opposite direction and jump) and hover over to the large Shine, and land on the little overhang surrounding it. Go to the edge facing the rest of the plaza, turn around, and do a triple jump, only make the first two jumps small. Do this next part quickly and carefully: on the peak of the third jump, hover, turn around, and grab onto the top of the gate. Jump into the pipe, and congrats! You’ve just gotten into Pianta Village without using the Rocket Nozzle!
Bubba Proof
In Gelato Beach, or any other level where there are Bubbas (the big red fish that drags Mario underwater), you can stop them from dragging Mario underwater if you pick up a piece of fruit and start swimming with it. The Bubbas will follow Mario around (and sometimes even pass through him), but won’t be able to drag him down.
Easy Coins and Free Lives
On some levels, you will see nails shooting up out of the ground. Jump on them, then ground pound them three times. You will either get a free life or a coin!
Easy Lives
First, go to Delfino Plaza and collect 100 coins. Immediately after, find the pianta on a roof that throws you into a building for one coin. Collect the shine inside the building and when you start over in Delfino Plaza, you will have 99 coins. Get another coin (to make 100) and you will get an extra life. Repeat as desired.
Rocket Storage
When you have the Rocket Nozzle, charge it up. Before it fires, jump, timing it so that you hit the ground around the time it would normally launch you into the air – if done correctly, it’ll fire but you’ll stay on the ground. However, the Rocket jump is still “stored” – if you sidestep from this point off a ledge, it’ll fire as you walk off, sending you even higher than you’d normally go. You can even then charge up a second jump as you go flying, allowing you to gain even more height!
This glitch can also be executed in a similar manner with the Turbo Nozzle (even though it doesn’t launch you vertically) for some reason, though the process of charging up vertical momentum is much slower.
Walk Underwater
This glitch allows Mario to run around underwater in Delfino Plaza during the flood.
Clear Episode 7 on every level to flood Delfino Plaza. After watching the long cutscene and Mario’s long drop into the Plaza, swim over to the log in front of the Shine Gate. Dive underwater, and try to surface under the log. If done correctly, Mario will suddenly drop and he’ll be walking around under the water, and the Underwater Life Gauge will be gone. You can do this trick with any of the logs in the Plaza.
NOTE: During the flood, only Serena Beach and Pianta Village are accessible. The rest of the stages and any underwater manholes or buildings aren’t.
Cheats
The game is fun by itself, but cheating makes it better. Always be sure to input codes with an Action Replay. All the below codes are compatible with most emulators.
Note: before entering cheats, be aware that altering the game can cause random freezing and several other glitches.
