==Glitches==

A notable glitch is the {{conjectural|Backwards [[Long Jump]]}}, which lets Mario slide upward on any staircase, including the endless stairs. Another notable glitch is the {{conjectural|Black Room of Death}}, which traps Mario behind the boundaries of the castle walls. It can be achieved ~~using~~ several ways, including using the Backwards Long Jump glitch. Another rather known glitch is the cloning glitch, often used to collect more coins than the actual number of coins in the game.

As in many other N64 titles, the cartridge can be tilted in the console to achieve messed up results~~; for~~ example, Mario's body will flip horizontally, but he can still be controlled. Also, the music will be heavily corrupted.

In multiple areas of the game in the Japanese version, there are unintended invisible walls that Mario can bump into. An example is the one in [[Tall, Tall Mountain]] just above the wooden log.

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===

When Mario enters the water, the angle ~~Mario~~ was facing before entering is preserved in a datum; therefore, when ~~Mario~~ jumps and lands on dry land, the next dive ~~Mario~~ 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.
