* In 2007, a Website/YouTube [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3FVLyzmNAI video]] popped up that claimed that HundredPercentCompletion of the game with both Mario and Luigi unlocks a new galaxy in ''VideoGame/SuperMarioGalaxy'', and completing said galaxy gives you the ability to play the game on your UsefulNotes/NintendoDS. While the DS can connect to the UsefulNotes/{{Wii}} for some games, it doesn't have the graphical capabilities to pull off what was shown. The hoax is very well executed, though, and people believed it.

* Supposedly, ''VideoGame/NewSuperMarioBros1'' contains a DummiedOut enemy named "Scripulous Fingore", who would have appeared in the [[BigBoosHaunt Ghost House]] stages, resembled a floating, beak-like head with a single disembodied hand, and despite being fully coded, went unused as Miyamoto himself [[ExecutiveVeto didn't want it in the game]]. In reality, this was a hoax started by the parody Twitter account "Cut and Obscure Video Game Content", who created [[https://twitter.com/CutVideoGame/status/1385717809011994624 a supposed 3D model of the enemy and a doctored screenshot of it in action]] in 2021.

This isn't an example. Creepypastas are always fake, and nobody is supposed to believe them

* A level described in the {{Creepypasta}} ''Fanfic/IHateYou''. It is supposedly accessed through a whirlpool after a secret exit from the Sunken GhostShip and featuring horrors such as blind Boos, bloody Banzai Bills, bloody graffiti such as "[[TitleDrop I hate you]]" and "WhyWontYouDie", bloody Thwomps, zombie Marios, and creepy Super Mushrooms, ending with Mario finding out that Luigi had been the one kidnapping Peach and bringing her to Bowser, and being forced to kill him.

* A rumor the 1995 beta build of ''Super Mario 64'' back when the Nintendo 64 was still called the ULTRA 64, is in fact classified or haunted due to the mysterious nature of it's development. This includes the rumor that Nintendo was in fact not involved in it's development, and therefore there is an ulterior purpose behind it.

* The idea that the disparate memories and claims about Super Mario 64 were due to a primitive AI customizing each game to the player. Rather then vivid childhood imagination and school yard lying for attention.

* In any game where Luigi is not playable, there will be rumors of how to unlock him. But in games where Luigi is the main character and ''Mario'' is not playable, the situation is reversed; this includes games like ''VideoGame/LuigisMansion'' and ''VideoGame/NewSuperLuigiU''. Interestingly enough, ''VideoGame/LuigisMansion'' includes a DummiedOut Mario model, fit to Luigi's structure with a lot of his animations. Going by the filename, it was probably a scrapped boss.
