Evolution of the Infinite Lives Trick in Mario Games

Lives can become very important when you are stuck at a hard level. Fortunately, Mario games usually include glitches or exploits that let you gain an infinite amount of lives in a very short time. Today, we're showing you said tricks in all Mario games from the original Super Mario Bros. to Super Mario 3D World.

Notes
- Super Mario 64, Super Mario Galaxy and the Mario Land games do not include an infinite lives trick
- Super Mario Advance's trick does not work in other versions of Super Mario Bros. 2
- Super Mario 64 DS's trick only works on Version 1.0 of the game
- Super Paper Mario was included since it contains an intended reference to the original lives trick

Super Paper Mario was such a unique amazing game, I love how the devs were just “we know what you’re doing and we’ll have none of it...”

[philiplonidier]

I love how Super Paper Mario trolls you for it.

Super Mario Sunshine had pretty damn good graphics back then. (Same with Mario Kart Double Dash)

[Prince_Seven]

I love how they nerfed it in Super Paper Mario.

Super Mario advance's truck?

JUST WHAT I NEEDED!

[DoomDragonRider]

Bowser didn't create the Koopa army to fight Mario.
He created them in order to give him infinite lives.

[pepijn]

I tried this in real life. My turtle died.

[marcnassif]

Now all you have to do is to make one for Odyssey

Oh wait...

[Andre-weuw]

No koopa troopas were harmed in the making of this video.

Why did I watch Mario become immortal for ten minutes?
