The warp pipe in Super Mario Bros. Special's World 4-2 will lead to the Minus World
In Super Mario Bros. Special, in World 4-2, there is a warp zone hidden at the end with a single pipe. However, due to a Game-Breaking Bug, attempting to enter the sole warp pipe there will get Mario stuck and force him to wait out the timer
.At the end of the trailer for Super Mario Bros. Crossover 3.0, Mega Man is seen entering this warp pipe, but the usual "Welcome to Warp Zone!" message is seen above it, with an ominous question mark symbol hanging above the pipe instead of the world number it would lead to.
My best guess it would lead to the Minus World, but not the endless copy of World 2-2, but instead, the three Minus World stages as seen in the Famicom release of the game. What do you think?
- Jossed. It leads to a super bonus room with coins spelling out "EXPLODING RABBIT" and a secret powerup with the appearance of the Exploding Rabbit logo that gives your current character all powerups.
The Attract Mode in 3.0 will use Super Mario Bros. Special's World 1-1.
The Attract Mode in each major release was different. In the pre 2.0 versions, the various playable characters simply walk onto the screen. In 2.0, Mario strolls through World 1-1 from Super Mario Bros. while the different playable characters appear to assist him.So I predict that in 3.0, the demo will change once again. It's similar to 2.0, but this time it takes place in World 1-1 from Super Mario Bros. Special instead. What do you think?
