A little musical revelation in Super Mario World

Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Random, Videos | 10 Comments

This particular level of Super Mario World contains a neat easter egg. Eating a green berry will add an additional 20 seconds to the game clock, providing players with more time to complete a level. It’s a well-known fact that the music speed increases once the timer passes by the 100-second mark, so by continuously eating green fruit every when this occurs, you can hear the music speed up to a pretty ridiculous speed. I’m sure that at least a few of you are aware of this, but I thought it was interesting!

As you can see in the video above, a glitch allows players to climb down the second ladder in Donkey Kong and more or less takes you to the end of the level. A lot of gamers are aware of this apparently, but I personally never even tried it! How about you guys?

Of course, this video is poking fun at the flash game Super Mario Crossover. It provides players with the opportunity to play through Super Mario Bros. as numerous characters such as Link, Samus, and Mega Man. Support for Ninja Gaiden’s Ryu Hayabusa is also on the way.

Man plays video Nintendo songs, sound effects on violin

Posted on 14 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Random, Videos | 3 Comments

We’ve seen plenty of people play video game songs on a violin plenty of times, but these videos have a twist. The performer actually included the sound effects from the titles as well. For instance, in the Super Mario Bros. video above, the violinist cuts from the song to the “coin jumping sound” when Mario hits one of the blocks.

You can check out a few additional videos after the break.
