  • I am back with another iceberg. Today we are taking a look at the Mario series as a whole. Throughout Mario’s journey over the years there have been some strange occurrences that happen in the background. This iceberg highlights interesting strange occurrences in Mario games. This includes everything from 2D Mario to 3D Mario games like Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy, and Super Mario Sunshine.
    Part 2: • The Disturbing Mario C...
    Part 3: • Exploring The Strange ...
    Some of the items included in the list are Easter Eggs from Mario games, along with glitches and even off-camera secrets. If you enjoy Mario games and want to know more about what's under the surface this is the perfect video! Part 2 is coming soon.

    "Fun" Fact: there's actually some reasoning behind the term "Hell Valley."
    It's a reference to Jigokudani's hot springs.

      Why am I just now learning this, from a comment no less, after seeing this entry in vids and icebergs for years? I guess that detail just isn't very creepypasta friendly. Thank you, friend!

    The codename Hell Valley is likely after Jigokudani/Hell Valley, a famous crater in Japan with sulfuric hot springs. Just a reference to a real-world scenic spot rather than anything dark.

    The mystery goomba spawns in the last Bowser level, Bowser in the Sky. Not the first Bowser level. The goomba spawns in a triplet triangle spawner. If there’s no floor where he is, the goomba snaps to the floor where he is supposed to spawn, and immediately spawns on the death barrier. He spawns (since you entered the draw distance of the spawner, causing every goomba to load) and then he unloads after a frame since you’re outside of his draw distance. Currently, any way to kill him is impossible to do.

    You know it wasn't until I saw this that I realized that Ninji are some kind of Ghost entity in the mario universe. In Super Mario World, they are the only enemy that I can think of that originates from Subcon. A realm where dreams and nightmares are real. And the only place you see them is in the underground entryway to the Demon King's lair. They could be like the ash spirits in Spirited Away, but even if they aren't, it's a japanese game and they are definitely a reference to something, at least in Super Mario World. (Also they act as Player stand-ins in the Ninji challenge on Mario Maker 2, an entity typically refered to as "Ghosts" in a racing game)

    Not a criticism, just as observation, but it's funny how ice bergs tend to frame even cute or silly things as creepy. Like the kodama in Shiverburn Galaxy are just cute little shadow people peepin over the mountain, but ice bergs always frame it as spOoOoOky wOoOoOo! lol

    Right off the bat. The Kug... When making 3d games, to test physics and whatnot you might not want to render an entire 3d model so instead we will use a paper thin model, sometimes it only renders from one side even... I believe this was a model used to test the enemies (you showed them) called Stu... Idk why they went with Stu instead of a Goopy Goomba, like alliteration c'mon, lol. But, it likely the case imo.
    The Shocking aspect makes me thing they might have had electric goombas, kinda like the electro-koopas in the stage

    so I dont know if this was a dream or in the game, but I was playing mario 64 when I was super young, and I remember a water level where the "Skybox?" was just the sea floor and dominating much of the background was the biggest starfish ever, and there also was a giant eel but that one was less scary because it was swimming about ignoring me, but the gant starfish which wasnt moving at all and just dominating the skybox scared me more.

    Hey gambado! My dad used to play Super Mario Bros. with me growing up, I'm 21 now and had an obsession with the classics. The way he explained it and from what I picked up on, if you can keep your momentum like mah pop's did during like the first couple levels and a few warp levels you can pass the flagpole with ease! He even taught me how to do the first one like shown in the vid because I couldn't keep momentum with the jank 80's controls.10:00

A innocent cool friendly water animal with a violent past that would be funny and crazy If It ever got confirmed but I think she was a great character in Super Mario 64. King Bomb-Omb degraded by Mario to forever roll around as part of the other 2 canon balls forever. I love how in Super Mario 64 Mario fights two kings and kills them Bowser and King Bomb-Omb. This was wonderful iceberg. I love super Mario 64 It's one of my favorite games of all time. Cool video. ^_^
