In Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition, the animated pictures of team members are made of individual layers and elements that move and rotate independently. Here are the face elements of the different forms of Mario and Luigi.

In Super Mario Sunshine, the goop in Delfino Plaza near the beginning of the game that has to be cleared to open Bianco Hills is shaped like Petey Piranha. Below is the texture used for the goop distribution.
The endless staircase in Super Mario 64 works by seamlessly teleporting Mario backwards a few steps when he reaches a certain point. If you have played the remake, Super Mario 64 DS, you might have noticed Mario’s position suddenly jumping backwards on the map screen.
In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, the innkeeper Toad sprite is shorter than Mario. However, when standing next to the innkeeper in Poshley Heights, she appears to be as tall as Mario. Changing the camera angle reveals that she is floating slightly above the ground.

Mario & Yoshi’s Adventure Land, the interactive Super Mario World anime.
In Super Mario Galaxy 2, we can see the planet most of Mario’s adventures take place on from space. On the bottom left is the planet’s texture as seen on the map that connects the worlds, on the bottom right the texture as seen on the World 1 map. Since these do not match up geographically, this raises more questions than it answers.
