I was in my mid 30s when I found out that you could hold some button when continuing after game over in Super Mario Bros to continue in the world you died.
We just got gud and abused the turtle shell stair 1up.

Whelp I was today years old when I found out about this…

I watched a video recently about tool assisted Speedruns which actually educated me on why this worked. An issue with the sound card and the way user input was handled allowed certain button combinations to cause Random Code Execution. It’s actually possible to beat one of the Mario games (can’t remember the name right this second) on the first frame using this method, but it requires a ridiculous amount of inputs

Look at it this way. Didn’t you have more fun losing over and over, never completing the game and being stained permanently with that empty feeling of defeat?

After completing the game, when you’re sent back to the title screen, you can also press B to select which world to start on. The World 1-1 in the HUD changes, then you have to do the continue trick - hold A and press Start.
I can finish the game on one life without warps, but I’ve never once been able to get the 1ups from a Koopa shell.
