Trivia
- The music heard in the background received cover versions in Super Mario 64, its remake, New Super Mario Bros., Super Mario Galaxy and Super Mario Galaxy 2.
- During development, the star item was initially conceptualized to turn Baby Mario into an adult, mustachioed Mario but it was pointed out this concept would seem strange. Shigeru Miyamoto joked he still prefers this early idea to the final version[6].
