Super Mario 3D All-Stars may well be made up of three pretty old games – can you believe that even Super Mario Galaxy is now 13 years old? – but we're willing to bet that we know of a fair few secrets that will blow your Mushroom Kingdom socks off.
In the video above, Nintendo Life newbie Jon takes you through 35 hidden secrets and exploits that can be discovered across Super Mario 64, Super Mario Sunshine, and Super Mario Galaxy. There are all sorts of different things in here from secret moves Mario can perform and hidden teleports, to tricks that can completely transform levels and make them far easier than they should be.
We know that plenty of you reading this site will be huge fans of these games, so we've no doubt you'll have heard of some of them before, but give it a watch and let us know how many are completely new to you in the comments below. And no cheating!

I'm not watching this until i'm done with the games.
I am waiting for the 1000 hidden secrets and exploits after the porting of The Thousand-Year Door to Switch
That Matt Berry voice
Nice video, and nice to see your channel is doing so good, you can afford a new face.
Like Zion, don't try to be like Alex (or Zion), do your own thing and you'll be great.
My god, I knew about the slide kick but had no idea it could do that...
Wow, for the Jump into the Cage star I, uh, long-jumped from the tower. That was apparently the hardest way to do it... Very satisfying, though.
Number 12 is NOT a hidden secret at all. There's at least one signpost in-game that explains the ground pound's ability to negate Mario's fall damage.
Nice video, I didn't know many of these!
Oh and by the way your voice is very soothing, Jon 😄
Wow I wasn’t expecting that voice at all 😂
Awesome vocal cords man... feels like I was being induced to buy something I didn’t wanted.
“You know you want this car... it’s got air vents”
@JonComms you are incredibly familiar, you had/have your own channel elsewhere too? There's no way I'm tripping here.
Gamexplain! got it in... like, a couple of guesses. Awesome addition to the team!
I'm Mario 64 you can clime up slopes in a similar fashion to what you talked about in Galaxy. It's just much easier. Face away from the slope and jump kick backwards to inch your way up.
I had no idea that the sidekick allowed for bouncing off lava in 64. I didn't know about the homing ground pound in Galaxy either. That's one of the things I love about Mario. Even after years of playing an entry, there's still secrets to learn.
i don't remember all of those teleporter stops in the original Super Mario 64. i only remember three and only one of those were not shown in this video. the lava trick seems interesting. hopefully i will be able to master it.
