``Trivial``
- There is an unused map featured in the Clear Videos of the earlier stages. This was used as a stage select but in order for it to work you must make a back up (optional)
of this rom and place either Mario or Luigi there and make sure all paths are enabled, left, right, up and down. Doing this however also makes them pass a level even though
it hasn't been cleared. This is an issue I've ran into and I've spent time trying to fix it.
- This hack has only been tested with the SNES9x Emulator.
- There's a theory that Luigi might actually suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder because of Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island of Luigi being kidnapped as a baby.
