Talk:List of New Super Mario Bros. glitches

Ever noticed that in the swing glitch he only mentioned fire flower and super mushroom but not regular mario? Does it mean you will be stuck until the level ends?Tf2 fan810 (talk) 07:52, 4 November 2012 (EST)

Shell Goes Through Bowser Jr.
In 4-tower, if Mario has a shell and goes to the bottom right or left corner on the other platform, if bowser jr goes way to that side of the platform and throws a shell, it will hit him. If mario/Luigi throws the shell at him, it will go through him.

Exact width of screen involving Challenge Mode
Would it help to mention that the width of the screen required to get all glitches involving Challenge Mode (LRLRXXYY) is exactly 2 or 3 pixels?Mathfreak231 (talk) 17:57, 27 January 2015 (EST)

Frozen Platform Glitch
In world 2-3, near the end of the level. There will be two swinging platforms that go downwards. If the player goes through them, waits for them to close, and goes through them again, the player will then be stuck there unless they turn left. This will not work with the mini or mega mushroom. --Super Mario Bro 13 February, 2015

A "glitch"
I found a thing that appears to be a glitch, in World 3-3. In the area with the lot of Bloopers and Blooper Nannies and the Star Coin, if you get a Super Star from the Roulette Block, the Blooper Nannies will flash as if they were under the effects of a Starman before releasing the Blooper Babies. I don't know if this is normal, and I can't upload an image of that, but you can try it, and see what I am talking about. 12:56, 17 September 2017 (EDT)

Re: That is not a glitch, that is simply what Blooper Nannies look like when they spread their babies. -kirbykart521

Bosses don't "flash"?
I noticed in this video that some bosses don't completely "flash": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4ewBBCbxsc Is this a glitch? --Mushroom Koop (talk) 13:35, June 29, 2019 (EDT)

Invisible Block Collision Glitch
In W8-8 there is a hidden block with a Starman inside. Once I managed this very weird glitch with it: If you activate the block at the exact same time the volcanic debris destroys it, then it remains completely invisible and no power-up spawns. However, its collision is still intact. I'm sure this glitch is difficult to replicate due to the precise timing and randomness of the falling debris. Has anyone else come across this glitch? -kirbykart521

Game-crashing glitch
In world 1-2 and 2-3 (both underground levels with enclosed cave sections) be small mario and hold a koopa troopa shell, then have a mega mushroom in your storage (best way to do this is by going to a toad-house or performing mega-mushroom storage) tap the mega mushroom, when it spawns in jump to it, the game will do the normal grow big animation, but it will get interrupted due to you having a koopa troopa shell in your hands, so you will get small again, messing around with any kroopa troopa shell in the level will now freeze the game entirely, but the quickest way to crash the game with this method is as your falling back down to the floor hold left until your just barely under the shell and hold "y" and as soon as the shell hits you the game will crash.

THIS ONLY WORKS IN W1-2 AND W2-3
