Using a well-timed [[Triple Jump]] on the slope near the castle, Mario can climb the castle without the [[cannon]]. Also, when he reaches a corner, he can fall down slightly and grab on to a ledge. Mario can then pull himself back up onto the roof, at which point he loses a life. For unknown reasons, he also loses his cap. This occurs because when Mario grabs the ledge, he is out of bounds, but the game waits until he pulls himself back up before causing him to lose a life. Something similar can happen if a door leads out of bounds or into a wall, but that can happen only through modding or glitches.

===Angled Dive===
===Angled dive===
When Mario enters the water, the angle he was facing before entering is preserved in a datum; therefore, when he jumps and lands on dry land, the next dive he performs starts with this angle. A few frames afterward, the angle fixes itself and the dive is completed correctly. Several things "reset" the angle, including grabbing a ledge, shooting from a cannon, changing areas, and jumping while facing a slope. This glitch does not affect the dive itself, just the animation.

*''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' – Carvings of Mario and Bowser from this game appear on several pillars in [[Bowser in the Sky]]. An arrangement of the [[Ground Theme (Super Mario Bros.)|Ground Theme]] plays on the title screen, and the [[Underground Theme]] can be heard in the music for the [[Hazy Maze Cave]] and [[Wet-Dry World]]. There is also a small jingle used at the [[Power Star]] select screen that sounds identical to the first few notes of the Ground Theme in this game.

*''[[Super Mario World]]'' – The idea of Switch Palaces is, in a way, brought back. Also, when [[Yoshi]] is met, he says to Mario "''It has been so long since our last adventure!''" possibly referring to this game. Also, the soundtrack follows the same composition technique used in ''Super Mario World'' in a similar way where there is a signature melody in the game that is heard across different levels in several variations ("[[Super Mario 64 Main Theme]]," "Snow Mountain," "[[Slider]]").

The idea of collecting [[Red Coin]]s first appeared in this title as well. Fly Guys appear as enemies. Ukkikis also appear as non-playable characters.
