Hey fellow goons, I'm thinking of playing Mario for the first time and I wondered if anyone had any tips or tricks? Are there any hard bosses? Maybe a cheat code? Thanks in advance :)

there are times when you'll encounter what the game refers to as an enemy, utilize the provided controller to avoid and dispatch said enemies

Here's something I wish someone had told me when I was 7 years old, instead of reading it on an internet forum in my 20s: if you hold B Mario runs. This allows you to jump further.

you can talk to a real game counselor on the nintendo power hotline for only 99 cents a min, probably get better tips than we have

the goal is to find these turtle hybrid men then kidnapp them then take them to a room all covered in plastic and strap them in plastic wrap then you show them photos of all the goonbas they murdered then you stab stem then you dismember them and throw the pieces off your boat into the ocean. also make sure your sister never catches you

they made a pretty popular tv show about it, it's called "the dating game"

real advice: the controller has an accelerometer in it so when you jump you need to move the controller in the direction of the jump and up. This will lengthen your jump distance.

I hope you level up! :)
If you run out of lives, hold down the A button while pressing start twice to continue in the same world you died in.

(Not the exact same area, if you do this in 6-3, for example, you will start over in 6-1, but better than starting off from scratch)
