In Chapter 3-1 of Super Paper Mario, entering a certain room causes a cutscene to start automatically where a Koopa Troopa panics upon seeing Mario, hits a Question Block, and collects a Mega Star from it. However, pressing the Home button on the Wii Remote to activate the Wii Home Menu directly after the Mega Star is released will cause the Mega Star to change its trajectory and remain stuck bouncing between blocks. This results in the Mega Star never reaching the Koopa Troopa, locking the game in this state.*
*Note that it is possible to reverse this by repeatedly activating the Home Menu again, although the timing on this is very precise and may take many tries.

VB Mario Land was a game announced for the Virtual Boy in 1995, but never released. The top image is a screenshot of an area with an overhead view, similar in visual style to The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, released by Nintendo to the press. The bottom footage is a recording of the game’s playable demo at the Winter Consumer Electronics Show 1995, showcasing the same level. The screen is a cutscene where Mario falls into a trap.
