High-definition version of the ending to Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, seen in Luigi’s Mansion Arcade.
In Super Mario Bros. 3, the rock between the path to the first fortress in World 4 and the Spade Panel can be destroyed with a Hammer item, allowing the player to bypass the fortress. There is no obvious indication that this rock is destructible, as it is surrounded by decorative rocks. In fact, many guides for Super Mario Bros. 3 do not mention this shortcut. (Footage recorded by me in a NES emulator.)
In WarioWare: D.I.Y., after competing a round of Ashley’s microgames, a brief scene of Ashley and Red in a mask shop plays. During this scene, Ashley will take off masks if the player taps the screen. If the screen is tapped very fast for the duration of the scene, it is possible to make Ashley take off all her masks before the screen fades out. (Footage recorded by me from a Nintendo DS emulator.)
Unused level intro featuring a “No Yoshi” sign found in the data of Super Mario World. Entering a level with this intro will cause Mario to dismount Yoshi the same way he would when entering castles or ghost houses.
