* A Toad near "Jolly Roger Bay" in gives us this gem.[[note]]In [[VideoGameRemake Super Mario 64 DS]], he will only say this if Mario talks to him.[[/note]]
--> '''Toad''': Being imprisoned in these walls can drive a fungus crazy. When I really start to freak out, I think to myself, "Well, I'm going to be here for a while, so I might as well stare at the fish. They are oddly hypnotic." Then I actually start to like being captured............Aaaguugh! IT'S MADNESS! I've got to snap out of this! You have to free us before we're all completely {{brainwashed}}! ...[[MoodWhiplash But for now, why don't you gaze at the fish with me]]. You look tense. Come relax.
* In the French translation, it's made perfectly clear that the Big Penguin gets pissed off whenever Mario cheats. The way the dialog box shows what he says, even those who don't know French can very easily imagine the Big Penguin spewing out {{angrish}} as he rakes Mario over the coals.
* Sometimes, a well-timed jump kick will sound an awful lot like a soundbyte from ''[[Film/TheThreeStooges Dizzy Pilots]]''—specifically, the scene where [[ItMakesSenseInContext Moe has floated to the ceiling and Curly tries to use a rope to get him down]].
* What Tuxie says in ''VideoGame/SuperMario64 DS'' when Yoshi puts her in his mouth.
--> '''Tuxie:''' Ayiiieee! Please don't eat me. I promise that I don't taste good. Plus, [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking I'll give you cavities.]]
* Similarly, when Yoshi eats a rabbit he's already captured.
--> '''Rabbit:''' What part of "I'm not your lunch" do you not understand? I already gave you the key! Put me down! ''(rabbit is spat out)'' I'm not chow. How many many times do I have to tell you that? I know I'm [[RidiculouslyCuteCritter irresistibly cute]], but try to restrain yourself!
* The intro to the DS version adds Wario and Luigi go along with Mario. The three can't even make it into the castle without doing something silly. Luigi jumps on Wario, who growls angrily and fails at punching him. Then Mario comes back to check on them but crashes into Luigi. Hilariously, it makes Wario look like the voice of reason when he points in the castle direction. Oh, and Yoshi's asleep on the roof.
