There are bugs and glitches in Super Mario Maker 2, some more malicious or funnier than others. Video collections on YouTube showing off a myriad of the game’s issues have started popping up since the Nintendo Switch release. Yoshi can become invulnerable, boxes can disappear and Mario may end up in places he really shouldn’t. Here’s a selection of some of our favorite glitches in Super Mario Maker 2 as captured by intrepid YouTubers.
Super Mario Maker 2 Glitches
If Mario jumps into the on/off switches while they are on the ninth or 129th tile of a level, he will move to the side of the brick. Placing a Thwomp behind a blue-shelled Buzzy Beetle causes the Thwomp to fly through the air. Giant Mario in a Dry Bones shell on the side of the screen can head straight up by holding right on the controller.
Putting a Chain Chomp on a note block will cause it to fly through the air like Superman with his mouth agape. You can create floating background tiles by placing bricks over the silhouette of Mario/Luigi on the stage.
Immediately grabbing a Super Leaf while entering a pipe will allow you to immediately re-enter it by pressing Tail Whip, jump and then repeating both as quickly as possible. .
These glitches are easily repeatable across all current versions of the game. Though they might not be as flashy as some of the glitches in the original Super Mario Maker, it’s amazing that fans have already figured these out. Combing through a game for hours just to find the best way to mess it up is dedication and no fan base is more focused on creating a mess than Nintendo’s is right now.
