User:Ultra64Detective2401/Iceberg Analysis

Here is where you can find my analysis on the Super Mario 64 Iceberg. More information on specific entries will be found in my sequences.

This page is currently still under construction.

Backwards Long Jump
The Backwards Long Jump is a glitch that can be found in Super Mario 64. There is a cap on positive speed, but not on negative speed, and long jumping multiplies your speed by a specific value. Therefore, long-jumping backwards will multiply your negative speed exponentially without bound, which is why it can be used to clip through walls and reach the top of the endless stairs without 70 stars.

Impossible Coin
MIPS Hole’s article on the Impossible Coin has everything I have to say. Besides the fact that if you want to learn more, you should check out the video on the article by Pannen.

Mystery Goomba
Again, MIPS Hole’s article has everything I have to say. Once again, watching the videos will give you more info.

Bob-omb Bridge Hanging
It’s possible to hang the bridge in Bob-omb Battlefield. Other strange hangable ceilings exist as well, though they do not count as anomalies. Look here for more info.

Half A-Press
Check out this, and this says a bit more. (Look under 17: “What are half-A presses?”)

Parallel Universes
Check out this. Yes, this is the same video as in the previous entry:PUs are explained later on in the video.

L is Real 2401
One of the most popular rumors to exist. Believed to be on the Star statue (“Eternal Star” is the most common reading), and hinting towards Luigi. Coincidentally, 24 years and 1 month later, Luigi’s beta model was found in the Gigaleak.

Spaceworld ‘95 Beta
The most well-known beta of the game. There is an ongoing attempt to recreate this beta, known as The Preservation Project.

Whomp’s Fortress 1-up
On the tower that appears on every star aside from Chip Off Whomp's Block, a 1-up can be found hidden within the tower by breaking the bottom of the back wall. How this knowledge first came to be found is a mystery... that will force us to dive deeper into the iceberg...

The Big Dud
This refers to Big Bob-omb becoming a big dud after being defeated. Interestingly, a third rolling ball is added-Could this be Big Bob-omb?

Volcano Blocks
This article is correct, and has all the info we currently have about these blocks.

Yoshi’s Saddle
This article has everything there is to say about this entry.

Please walk quietly in the hallway
This refers to a sign in the second floor of the castle. It is unknown why the sign is even there. Perhaps it was left over from an earlier iteration of the castle? There are rumors of a floor that had Boos roaming the halls... so perhaps at one point enemies were meant to be in the castle, and enemies in the second floor would attack if you weren’t quiet. (Perhaps Pirahna Plants?)
