New Super Mario Bros

Glitches

Exploit based

Wall Jump bug (like the NES Mario games)

To pefrom a second kind of wall jump, you have to be Mini Mario and touch a wall. The same frame that you touch the wall, jump, and you'll "wall jump" upwards instead of diagonally.

Source: [TAS clip.]

Uses: Any % with cannon warps Segmented.

It's very difficult to perform it 5 in a row and for an 100% run, it's in a segment that relies on luck with the Hammer Bro/Red ? Box landing on 5-B. It's very unreliable in a non-TAS because you end up bumping against the ceiling (main exit of 5-B) or lose a life from a Pumpkin Goomba (Alt exit of 5-B).

Silent Shell jumps

Oddly, if you run off of a cliff while Shell Dashing with the Blue Shell, and let go of Y to get out of the Blue Shell at the right time, you'll make a little boost upwards. If you do a jump, let go of B and then press & Hold it again in mid-air. Performing the Silent Shell Jump will increase your jump's height and distance as if it was a normal jump.

Tricks

Will be revealed after the 100% run gets published to Speed Demos Archive.

Route

Any% with Cannons (Warps)

Single Segment

Current Record: 23:55 (Unofficial)

Source: Chronorox

Note: The fastest time requires 3 rare power ups on certain levels that are random from Hammer Bros & Red ? Boxes. Due to the low chance of getting all 3 this route below is the most reliable as you will be able use the rare powerups on 2 out of the 3 key levels. It's also one of the longest warped runs in a Mario game so far.
