Super Mario 64 has plenty of mysteries and secrets scattered around its various lands... But one I don't hear a whole lot of people talk about are actually the minor secrets. The 1-Ups, or extra lives, that are hidden throughout every single level. About the only 1-Up conversation people have is typically centered around the green demon challenge... But the thing is, Super Mario 64 has some of the most absurd hidden 1-Ups out of any Mario game. And in this video, we're cracking down on the craziest of them all.

This feels like the kind of thing programmers would put in as a sort of test and then just left them in as a "secret."

@Twisted_Code 5 лет назад

As a matter of fact, that's exactly what they did with Super Mario World's test level, minus the part about leaving it in for players to stumble across (at least in normal gameplay). If you open Super Mario World's ROM (that is, a digital copy of the game's cartridge) in a program like Lunar Magic and look at the level data for any of the hundred or so of unused level slots (these are level slots that exist only because the numbering system requires them to), you'll find the placeholder data the developers used to fill the blanks in such instances. Besides spelling out the word "TEST" using turn-blocks, these levels also contain some hidden checkpoint 1-ups, likely meant to enable them to test that the game is storing memory flags properly. It's also a nice consolation prize for anyone that somehow ends up in one of these levels by mistake, considering the only way to exit the level normally is to jump off a ledge.

The weirdest 1-Up, in my opinion, is the one in Ricco Harbour in Super Mario Sunshine. iirc, it only appears on one specific Shine, and you need to talk to three(?) Piantas, in rubber rings in the water, for it to spawn. The first two are easy to talk to, since they are by land, so you can just walk up to them and talk to them. However, the third one starts of in the middle of the water and moves. In order to speak to him, you’d need to follow his path around to one specific part of the map where he swims close enough to the land for you to talk to him. It seems ridiculous that anyone would have even thought to try this, since the game doesn’t even tell you about the 1-Up.

I actually found the 1-UP in the room where you drain the water, as a kid. Back then I used to explore everything, and I decided that that room had to have something else. I ran in circles, each one bigger than the last, and eventually hit the 4 corners and got the 1-UP.

1-Ups in Mario 64 don't even make sense, if you die it kicks you out of the level and if you game over it's basically the same thing.

Not to mention that since you can save your game and comeback to it later, there's really no reason to have one ups anyhow.

@TheJadeFist 5 лет назад

@@WayOutGaming Rayman Legends did away with lives completely and so did Sonic Forces and you just restart from the last checkpoint. I think lives should only be a game if you expect the player to go through the whole game on limited lives/ continues. You know expect the player get good enough to make it to the end of the game. Sonic 3 had a save system and limited lives. Infact the original Rayman had limited lives/ continues and you'd have to start a complete new game even if you have saved.

The invisible four-point 1-up is from SMW -- it's in many SMW levels (including the 200+ copies of the unused "test" level). Also the reason why someone might stand in each of the four corners is because SM64 hides other things (like warps) in non-descript corners.

@joshernsteen2066 4 года назад

I read an interview that was done with the developers of the game, I believe with IGN, in which they explained why and where the hidden 1-ups were placed. The developers were very through in their responses to the questions that they were asked. The interview also answered the questions that all of the players had about the 1-ups placements outside the castle including the explanation as to why the running butterflies created a 1-up.

@@thewitheredstriker I did not think about saving the link when I found it. I read the interview very thoroughly, and then exited out of it thinking that no one would want to read it anytime soon.

The Whomp's Fortress wall one was easy. The wall was clearly textured differently from the others in a way that made it look weaker. I found it when I was a kid. Another thing I found as a kid was in Sunshine, in one of the later Ricco Harbor missions. There's three swimming Piantas near the start of the level, and if you talk to all three of them (which requires waiting for them to come close to land), you get a 1-up. The benefits of talking to everyone.

@milestone380 5 лет назад

To be fair, 1-Ups are arguably useless in this game since whenever you turn the game off and go back into your save file, you always start with 4 lives no matter how many 1-Ups you collected during your last playthrough

The striped room before the slide - I explored it as a kid because the textures made me suspicious. I was maybe 8 or 9 and had played Final Fantasy games. Those conditioned me to look for secrets, I think. I can't play a game without looking at everything now, 20 years later.

@sergiogodinez3770 4 года назад

I remember finding these 1-ups as a kid. I was indeed curious and liked to linger in obscure rooms simply because I was having so much fun exploring the castle or the paintings, and I didn’t want the game to end just because I finished a mission. And I often enjoyed doing silly self-imposed amusement challenges like touching all four corners, hugging the wall all the ay through a level, etc. That would sometimes span weird little discoveries like that. I’m the type of player that goes into every new room and presses the first-person view button to just sit and marvel at the 3D creation laid before me. I’m sure there’s other people that enjoy that, though I can see why not everybody would. But yeah, I’m willing to bet there are people who stu bled upon these 1-ups. And yeah, they are super weird, but also super fun!

I discovered the slide and the basement 1 ups on my own. Not the fortress one though. A video on youtube a few years ago told me about that one. The slide 1up was found because I randomly had the desire to touch the corners and the basement one was because i was trying to do some neat tricks in that area and it just showed up.

I think that, like Zelda on the NES, these absurd, counterintuitive placements and methods to get them are a result of Miyamoto wanting people to talk about them. He was a fan of playground rumors and player collaboration.

@Twisted_Code 5 лет назад

The one that spawns from hitting 4 invisible switches might be based on Super Mario World, wherein some 1-ups spawn based on a similar mechanism. No idea why it's just this one though; SMW at least uses that mechanic repeatedly, even if it's not always used in tricky ways
