go on world 1 turn into big mario and when you get to the end you will get 3 or 4 lives

get a p wing and use it all the way through.

you can do this at any level first you have a game ans say you have 2 lives and your on
just mario save & quit and go on the same file as that one but as mario and luigi and take
all the lives from luigi so mario will have 9 live then save and quit and go on as just
mario then when you look at the lives you have 9 :) and it also refreshes the mushroom
houses and all mini games.

NOTE: THIS ONLY WORKS FOR THE SNES VERSION OF THE GAME

if you get to any point in the game and you don't have any items, press start.  save and
quit.  then go back to the game.  select the file you were playing.  in the screa before
you start to play is a section that tells the world you are in.  use the d-pad to go down
to other already beaten worlds.  you can redo entire worlds, or just go to the mushroom
houses.  and the best part is, you can do it fo all worlds as may times as you want.  also
note that when you go back to the world you came from, all levles will need to be re
beaten, unless you have beaten the little castles

ok so start at world 8 level 1, keep going thru as fast as you can and you will come to
the first turtle you see, when you see that turtle jump on it and push it away to the
right, when you do that a thing should oh hang on i forgot sorry figure it out yourself
losers

when u are big mario or any powerup W/ Big mario,and u see a brick block that u have to be
tiny mario,that's not true.step back,run then duck.u should be under it.jump up then get
the "P" switch or whatever is there.

when you get to the first castle and fight the koopa kid you can get the whistle by using
racoon mario when you get to the skeleton koopa solider and fly over the ceiling there
will be a box with it and warp to world 4

when you go to heaven on a music boxon world 1-3&1-5 get your coins for the first 2
smaller clouds and when the third cloud appears which is the largest power up, fly, and
get your extra man out of the block. Try not to worry about the coins because the extra
man will travel away very fast. Ive learned you cam always go back to heaven for the coins
you missed but not the extra man!

for those of you who are suffering with alzheimer's disese the n card bonus is just a game
of memeory like you played in preschool. If drugs or age may have affected your memeory

mushroom heads. you will get an n card every 3-4 levels that you pass!
