After speaking with [[Dr. Toadley]], the player will see a cutscene if they return to the previous area. If the player positions himself on the left side of the entrance to [[Toadley Clinic]], then press down and then again press three times to the left, it can cause using [[Spin Jump (Mario & Luigi series)|Spin Jump]] to make Mario and Luigi go on top of the entrance. The brothers can then use Spin Jump to move to the right and catch [[Birdley]] without learning the [[Balloon Mario]] technique.<ref>Vince1919 (January 28, 2018) [https://youtu.be/-DkymHJuRbE?si=qwMiOzKzQ4S3gxOT Air Ballon Tutorial Skip].

When Bowser is pushing a Statue of Fawful in his castle, there is a glitch where Bowser will get the statue right to the wall but will be stuck.

If Bowser is bloated after eating one of the leftovers, once the [[Flab Zone]] is active, the player must go to the [[Pipe Yard]], and when they do, a glitch may occur.
