Or don't have a Super NES within arm's length? That's OK, I've prepared a sample for you right <a href="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/smw_secretsong.mp3">here</a> in mp3 form.</p> audio easter eggs pro tip smw SNES Fri, 05 Feb 2010 13:31:38 +0000 Will 364 at http://protipoftheday.com Pro tip: An invisible secret nothing in Super Mario World http://protipoftheday.com/node/292 <p>You remember the <a href="http://protipoftheday.com/node/179">Top Secret Area</a> in Super Mario World, right? Well, it's got one more secret up its sleeve.</p> <p>Take a look at this screenshot. </p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/smw_topsecretnothing1.png" /></div> <p>Looks pretty normal, right? But I'd like to draw your attention to this area about in the middle of the screen, toward the bottom.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/smw_topsecretnothing2.png" /></div> <p>If you take Yoshi and hold Up while pressing Y, his tongue will shoot out, but he'll be standing up.</p> <div align="center"><img src="http://protipoftheday.com/sites/default/files/smw_topsecretnothing3.png" /></div> <p>If you're positioned correctly, you'll hear a 'thup-thup' sound, like his tongue is bouncing off of something that he can't eat, like a keyhole. But there's nothing there. </p> <p>Weird, huh?</p> misc pro tip smw SNES Wed, 28 Oct 2009 12:32:54 +0000 Will 292 at http://protipoftheday.com
