Loading...Playing Mario 3 as a kid, were you driven insane by this inaccessible *secret block* off the side of the cloud areas? Have you wondered what's inside this block? The answer is tied to an NES quirk and the unintuitive way that scrolling works in SMB3! 🧵👇
The cause of the peach colored block on the cloud levels is the same reason you will often see incorrectly colored objects on the right-most edge of the screen in other levels of Super Mario Bros 3.
Videos and explanation over on Twitter (sorry, GameJolt articles do support video... 👎)
