List of Super Mario Kart glitches

This is a list of glitches in the game Super Mario Kart.

The player must be in the Battle Mode and select one or two players. The player needs to play as either player and lose all of their protective balls, but they should keep pressing the accelerate button. If their timing is right, it is possible to continue to drive around even without any balloons.

There should be two players racing. One must pause, while the other should be under the effect of a Star. When the effect runs out, the Star jingle will still play.

When the player is in a 1-Player race, the map is normally on the bottom. To move it to the top, the player the second controller to do the following: highlight 1-PLAYER, then hold +  and press  ,then use Controller Two to select their kart class, driver and track then play as normal. If done correctly, the map should be to the top.

In Battle Mode, the player needs hold the gas before, during, and after they lose their last balloon. Sometimes they will be able to continue driving around and battling. If the player errorealy presses button, they will go the menu, but they will still be able to drive around until they press another button.

In any two-player game, after Lakitu gives the green light, the player must keep mashing in both controllers. Occasionally, the music will not play.

In Battle Course 2, if the player jumps out of the course with a Feather, they will be get picked up by Lakitu and they will disappear from their opponent's screen, but their balloons will remain.

The glitch works in Ghost Valley 1. The player will need a Feather and possibily a character with an high handling stat, such as Koopa or Toad. They should be next to the Start line, possibily to the mostleft, and use a Feather to end up behind the lap. If done correctly, they will have done a lap simply by doing this.

The player should pick up a Mushroom. They should use and hop very nearby the corner. If done correctly (can be tricky), the player should always facing left regardless they are not steering and will under the effect of a Mushroom longer than normal. Note that the effect can wear off and the player will need to do the trick again. The player should get a time of a lap under 10 seconds.

In Donut Plains 1, the player must steer right to the right and hit the wall, while hopping continously: if done right, Lakitu will count a lap about every second.

In Ghost Valley 1, they player should go right while hopping and fall. Their position will decrease, but after 8 will get back to 1 and Lakitu will count the lap.

In Bowser Castle 1, the player will need a Feather and be in the fourth lap near the Start line. They should use their Feather to jump to the left. If done correctly, the race will finish.

In Mario Circuit 2 the player should go near the jump to the end, but go as more left as possible. If finishing out of bound, Lakitu will count two laps.

By doing any of the glitches above, occasionally Lakitu will show glitched lap counters, such as "LAP 05" or, rarely, "LAP 16". "LAP" is normal, but to the right the counter will be invisible, showing the mentioned numbers in pile and red.
