  • Could you find all of the exits in Super Mario Land 2 on Game Boy? Here's a guide to help finding them!
    Super Mario Land 2 contains hidden exits to find which allow you to access hidden courses. You can still beat the game without them, but it's still cool to track them down and get a full 100% completion. It's very Super Mario World-esque in that regard.

    Tip for bunny floating: don't hold the button, tap it super rapidly. You won't lose altitude if you're fast enough at it.

      Infact, it is actually possible to press it so fast that you _never_ descend at all, but you pretty much have to press at the speed of a jackhammer.

    I found all of these as a kid, but drove myself crazy looking for a hidden stage in Mario Zone. It's the only Zone without a secret stage, and I assumed there had to be one but couldn't find it anywhere. I explored every pixel of that zone for years as a kid 😅

    • @risingsunretro
      @risingsunretro  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Nice! I never found that moon one so I just assumed that and the Mario zone didn’t have them for some reason. I think I figured the pumpkin zone had two so that was why 😂 I miss those days when I’d explore stages for what seemed like hours. The Mario stages were probably my favorite looking back on it.

    • @frange

    I swear the music playing @ 00:50 seconds sounds almost exactly like the music for the indie game "Shovel Knight".....everytime I hear this music my mind instantly goes that specific song from that game. You can definitely tell they took inspiration from this game to make that music for their game!

      Honestly I’ve not played much of shovel knight but it’s one of those games I need to get to. It looks like a total blast and the tracks I’ve heard sound so good. The music in this game is so good too. It’s so weirdly not Mario, almost Mario wonder like, but that’s why it’s so good

    Hi, I also found the secret exits in my childhood on the original GB.
    They always were a bit wired for me, because nothing happens when you found and clear all levels, not even a symbol on your save.
    What is the story behind them, or why are they there?
    Same with that one bat in Megaman X, it seems that nobody has information about that.

    • @risingsunretro

    It’s SO cool to see that this game is available on Switch, available to the generations that missed out on this awesome Mario game. I feel like SML 6 Golden Coins doesn’t get enough recognition when compared to other NES and SNES Mario 2d Mario games. At the time- this was as close as you were gonna get to a version of Mario 3 or super Mario world, on a handheld device. In my opinion it was the best game made for game boy. I’d REALLY love to see some new hacks, using the 6 Golden Coins…software? lol don’t know the technical terms. But a new 6 Golden Coins game using the same stuff, you know what I mean

      That would be really cool. It’s such a fantastic game it still holds up so well even now. It’s so weird and interesting in its own way and brings a unique Mario flavor you don’t really get anywhere else. If there was a longer, beefed out version of the game, it’d be one of the best Mario’s ever. The platform it was on limited it in that regard but it still performed.

      @@risingsunretro 100%. It is a bit of an oddity when compared to the other titles mentioned, but seriously, like you said- if there was longer, more fleshed out versions, that would be so fun. Just imagine of the developers of Mario 3 could take this games “engine” I guess, and make their version of a full length 6 Golden Coins on an NES cart. Same for super Mario world on snes.
      We can only hope. The way things are going, I’m kinda surprised some sorta hack hasn’t been made already
