I've been casually speedrunning this game and I hit a glitch I've never seen before while doing an RTA. I got to Fryguy (the world 4 boss) and broke him down into the small Fryguys as usual, but when I hit one of them with an item, it didn't disappear in a puff of smoke like it was supposed to. Instead, it fell off the screen like a regular enemy. This caused some confusion within the program because when I killed off the other little Fryguys, the door didn't appear and I couldn't exit to the next world. Since there was no way for me to die, it essentially softlocked the game and killed the run.
Hey guys, Andy here, sorry its been such a long time since the last Son of a Glitch, but the series is finally back on track. I really hope you enjoy this episode, it’s the first time i’ve done one unscripted, so lemme know what you think! Your support has been amazing the last month or so, but the UA-cam landscape has changed a lot too, so please share this episode around and support the channel as much as you can. Thank you! Andy (A+Start)
Birdos respawn when you get far enough away, just like any other enemy. However, on most birdos you can't do this because they're in small closed off rooms where you can't get the required distance away. From experience, it's also possible with the birdo in 1-1, should you use a super jump with Luigi to jump over the right wall, and then head back.
I don't get the point of low poly, AND I think it tool the place of for hacks sake, I watched the first episode of for hacks sake and loved it, I don't know why they didn't stick with that.
(3:17) Correction: Getting hit by an enemy doesn't make the fake item above your head turn real again. However, if you die (either through injuries, a bottomless pit, or the quick-kill code using controller 2), then the item will become real at the beginning of your next life. (3:27) Actually, Birdo always respawns like any other regular enemy if you defeat him, scroll away from his spawn point, and then return. It's just that he won't have the crystal orb inside his body anymore. And, Birdo can respawn like that on any of the encounters with him in the game, not just in the 3-2 boss room (go ahead, try it in 1-1 or somewhere else). So, I believe this is intended behavior, and not a glitch.
1:23: Insert the moon theme from that DuckTales NES game here. "We must go; our planet needs us." 5:40: He's trying to do the Mario! ~Swing your arms from side to side...~
"Respawning Birdo Glitch" This actually happens everywhere. Birdo always re spawns if you beat him and leave the screen. I don't think it's a glitch, but it is weird to see him without the crystal ball.
3:41 I’ve encountered this on a lot of levels. I don’t know if it’s a glitch or not, but it is common. It’s on most of the levels with a Birdo boss fight, I believe.
For sure. I used to do this all the time when I was a kid. I liked fighting the easy birdo and riding the eggs. WAIT. Why does birdo have eggs coming from its mouth?? Somethings not right
I encountered a random glitch with mushroom blocks and any object that makes you climb up it. Basically you can delete the ladder tile by dropping/throwing a mushroom block, just as your about to fall off a platform or enter the next tile in the level that has a ladder, vine, or chain in it, if you time the throw just right, or spam the B button. You can throw or place a mushroom block in the same tile that the ladder, chain, or vine tile is in. The mushroom block then overwrites the ladder, vine, or chain tile, deleting it from existence, and no, it’s not a visual glitch either, the climbable tile is gone forever, but this also leads to an interesting visual glitch with the mushroom blocks too. If you overwrite a ladder sprite, the mushroom block becomes the same colour as the ladder sprites, and if done with a vine, the mushroom block becomes green, and if you do this with a chain, the mushroom block becomes silver. I accidentally encountered this glitch when trying to speed run the game, and tried to reproduce it, and was surprised at how easily it was to re-produce. This glitch doesn’t seem to work with the all stars version of the game, and can’t be preformed on the game boy advance version either. But it’s still an interesting glitch nonetheless.
The Birdo "glitch" you encountered basically happened because you went back to a point you had already reached in the map causing Birdo to respawn because the game was then programmed to think you had not encountered her yet.
Stryfes please explain what the fuck does that mean? everyone posting that on the comment section. is that a video? please put the link whatever that is or please explain
Slow Pokey xD I'm glad you keep your humour skits to a minimum though, I love your channel for all the showcasing of glitches, not because of the jokes
"...It’s the first time i’ve done one unscripted." Wow, seriously? I have to say I couldn't tell, it came off surprisingly well if it was indeed totally on the fly. Definitely a good episode, Andy, sir, well done. And this game definitely needs more love, so good to see it covered in a glitch video!
Hey, A+ Start, I was digging though a box of old DS games, and I found one of my old favorites - Adventure Time: Hey Ice King Why Did You Steal Our Garbage. I actually found it to be quite glitchy and I recommend you to check it out. I have the DS version, not the 3DS version, so I recommend you to use that one. If you can't find any glitches in it, please tell me in this comment section. Please keep this in mind. -Plub 64
Andy I've been subbed since son of a glitch first started. It's so amazing to see how much you've grown and how long I've watched you! Ur a amazing dude and honestly I just wanted to say I love ur vids and keep up the good work!!!
Nintendo might’ve patched the Mario 64 speed run glitches in the 3D All Stars and N64 Nintendo Switch Online versions, but they didn’t patch *these* in the SNES and NES Nintendo Switch Online port.
There’s a glitch that happened to me once and I’m guessing it’s those really really rare glitches. But anyways when you start the game on the very first screen when you land by the first red door of the game I threw a vegetable and opened the door at the same time and immediately ended the game and went to the ending animation. This must be one of those perfect timing glitches because I could never replicate it again...but you might be able to.
I assume that once you land on a log, it counts as a falling grounded entity. Before you land on it, it’s probably either not an entity or not grounded for some reason. So, this is why the pow block affects it.
There's a glitch (Also in NES) that if you are on a vine, and a (Bug thing) pushes you into the cloud, you'll... Be half in the cloud, while still climbing.
2:43 Actually, this glitch it's the most useful one for a speedrunner. Like you can quickly kill birdo in 1-2 with a extra hit with that plant on the character head. You win a bit of time by doing that.
Andy I like the Son of a glitch and you should continue the series. Even if it's new or old, 2D or 3D, or Popular or not It's still fun to see all of the glitches in the game and will be sad if it's stopped Keep up the great work Andy
2:55 So suddenly he goes hands free. It's like "Hey, It's-a me, Mario! I can save the princess with a mushroom and some stars! And look at me, I'm wearing a vegetable!"
i blinked around the 7:00 mark and suddenly thought the shy guy was dancing with long legs and high heels and doing some galloping... idk it looked like mettaton ex but a shy guy
A+Start I discovered a glitch in the legend of Zelda breath of the wild, if you pick up a cucko (I'm probably spelling it wrong) and jump of a ledge and immediately pull out your bow, you drop the cuckoo and the game will go slow-mo as usual but only for a split second. Then you will be gliding like you're holding a cucko, but you're holding the bow. I have the Wii U version so it might only work for the Wii U and not the Nintendo switch. This was a cool glitch I wanted to tell you about. Anyway, love your videos!

It's a known glitch with the first version of SMB2. It was fixed in the revision or "PRG1" version.

Actually, this glitch can be done in any Birdo fight that has enough space essentially
Yup. Birdo will respawn
Yeah, I didn't that that was a glitch just a respawn without the orb
wasnt there also a level where you rode one of birdo's eggs? probably intentional just incase you'd otherwise softlock yourself by killing birdo
Yup, I knew this
Birdos respawn when you get far enough away, just like any other enemy. However, on most birdos you can't do this because they're in small closed off rooms where you can't get the required distance away. From experience, it's also possible with the birdo in 1-1, should you use a super jump with Luigi to jump over the right wall, and then head back.
Good Night it happens to me with one of the green Birdos almost every time I play the game, the one on world 7-1 I think

Loving low poly, Loving Son of a glitch, loving it all - Thanks for the vids! Keep it up!
Agreed! I've been following this series for a couple years and it still hasn't declined in quality!
I don't get the point of low poly, AND I think it tool the place of for hacks sake, I watched the first episode of for hacks sake and loved it, I don't know why they didn't stick with that.
creeper izak
What the hell is hacks sake? Did you mean fucks sake?
0:36 it's because Luigi has a special jumping animation who gives you more frames to do a full hop. It also applies when jumping from stairs.
(3:17) Correction: Getting hit by an enemy doesn't make the fake item above your head turn real again. However, if you die (either through injuries, a bottomless pit, or the quick-kill code using controller 2), then the item will become real at the beginning of your next life.

Birdo always respawn when you leave the screen. A lot of goodness in this video.
3:27 this is not a glitch it can happen in any stage that has birdo in a non enclosed arena. Try it in the first stage.
Wow, these are some pretty neat glitches! Most not too useful, but fairly entertaining! Thanks a bunch for uploading them!
I think Birdo can respawn in any level and in any version of the game.
This guy needs more subscribers this is an amazing UA-cam channel
In 2:49 Mario eyes was glowing dark black *its a glitch or not.*
I assume that once you land on a log, it counts as a falling grounded entity. Before you land on it, it’s probably either not an entity or not grounded for some reason. So, this is why the pow block affects it.
Most likey...🤔
It was patched in the GBA version, for physics changed.
Any glitches in the Game Boy Advance version that are worth noting?
There's a glitch (Also in NES) that if you are on a vine, and a (Bug thing) pushes you into the cloud, you'll... Be half in the cloud, while still climbing.
