Old NES game glitches., Like this one I found in SMB2

Talk about any glitches you have found in old NES games.



I found this one in SMB2 (USA) This Morning.
Level 1-2


(Warning: Massive pic)

I was playing this on my GBA when I did this.

I dropped the key to let that damned phanto get some distance, it bounced off the corner and landed were you see in the pic.

Luigi crouched and would pop up every so often for about 1 frame.
He was slow getting out of that position.

Do you mean when you get trapped under one pixel of key? Apart from that one, I don't think I've sen any other glitches.

man thats gotta be annoying...

Does it really have to be NES? Too bad. Once, when playing my copy of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons, the text inexplicibly turned to French. I dunno how that happened.

In Oracle of Ages, the NPC standing by the pool where you get the Floodgate Key occasionally speaks Impa's lines from near the start of the game, and his own correct ones.

The backround on my VC version of Kirby adventure changing color for no apparent reason.

It ain't' really a glitch but I hate how in Megaman 1 if you fall off the side of moving platforms rather than jump off Megaman falls like a brick

edit: and in Megaman 3 standing on top of the cloud formers in Snake Man's stage will sometimes push you off the edge, so I always jump onto the clouds rather than just stand there for em.

agreed

mine shifts postion on the screen

If I understand what you're talking about, that's happened to me numerous times. I'm guessing it's probably made that way on purpose, so that they can get out from being stuck under keys. If I recall correctly, the key bounces on them continually.

Minus World - Super Mario Bros.

Once when i was playing Megaman on the Anniversary Collection for the Gamecube, when on IceMan's stage where you see the flying penguins, they began to glitch up and look like garbled up.

One time in my early days of playing SMB, I got killed by Bowser and jumped on the axe at the same time. The dying music played while the bridge broke and Bowser fell down, and while Mario was flying up into the air and falling down, the screen started scrolling toward the room with Toad. The music also changed to the victory music. Mario moved to the side along with the screen while dying, and fell off-screen before he reached Toad. The message displayed as usual, but only Toad was there. I went to the next level then, like normal, and I don't know if I lost a life or not.

I thought that was incredibly funny when it happened.

I always wanted to try that but I could never do it...

This brings forth tears from my eyes
Also, I find it funny how if you fall from Gutsman's platforms in the beginning of the stage he falls like a brick too, I swear it's so you're gone in a flash to get a reaction of "wuh?"

Another common "glitch" is when enemies reappear after you leave the screen and come back, I hate when this happens to the big guys in NES megaman games since they hurt a ton if you touch them, and occasionally I end up getting 5 on my screen because I was going back to get some distance in order to shoot one


EDIT: HOLY **** I FORGOT THE MOST ANNOYING THING EVER IN MM1

Bosses can still hurt you with their projectiles even when they're gone, Iceman always screws me over in the Wily stage because you lose control of Megaman after defeating him for a brief moment (and the ice slash hurts or kills me) while I'm standing like a moron >:((((

I found a ton in sonic 3 like sonic changing to knuckles pallete while I was playing.

Does it have to be NES?

i take it you're browsing mfgg on the same GBA you play with if that's a "massive" image?

anyway try it with the crystal balls dropped by birdos, and if i recall you can use some trickery to stack mushroom blocks, pull out the lower ones and leave the upper ones hanging (i forget quite how, maybe i'll make an emulator recording sometime)

i think in mm1 you can still die by spikes even in youve been hit by an enemy

The king of all glitches.
I don't really play NES games anymore, but on the N64 mario kart in frappe snow land,
I once fell through the water in the first river that you meet, and had to turn of the N64.
It was cool!
