Super Mario World "Completed" in Under 3 Minutes by Corrupting the RAM

Re:Super Mario World "Completed" in Under 3 Minutes by Corru... by kafkaesque on Sunday March 24, 2013 @03:08PM (#5433117)

I don't know much about RAM corruption, but at 2:10 in the video Mario loses Yoshi then magically brings him back. Is this video stitched in some way?

I used to be infatuated/obsessed with the Mario series. But right now I don't recall if it was possible to call Yoshi back like this.

Any clarification?

That's explained in one of the threads linked: "I spawned two Yoshi's by hitting the block with Mario and the p-switch at the same time. I jumped on one Yoshi, got the p-switch in his mouth and let him die, so the second - invisible - Yoshi becomes visible and have a null sprite in his mouth."

You can't. That's another glitch. (listen to the sound effects)
