** The star named "Find Nebby and Put It Back in the Bag" references ''VideoGame/PokemonSunAndMoon''.
** One of the Bob-omb Buddies in V A P O R S P A C E asks, "If mayonnaise isn't an instrument, what is it?" (The others ask amusing shower thoughts like "What if only the stickers are made in China?".)
* StrawFan: The Toad who explicitly says he dislikes ''VideoGame/PaperMarioColorSplash'' because "it's not ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor''" is a strawman of ''Paper Mario'' fans who didn't like how the former game (well, originally ''[[VideoGame/PaperMarioStickerStar Sticker Star]]'') changed the franchise.
* TakeThat: A Toad calls the camera in '''VideoGame/SuperMario64LastImpact'' a "cancer cam".
* TheyChangedItNowItSucks: [[invoked]] A StrawFan Toad mocks this attitude: he explicitly says he dislikes ''VideoGame/PaperMarioColorSplash'' because "it's not ''VideoGame/PaperMarioTheThousandYearDoor''".
* TomatoSurprise: [[spoiler:The Mario you're playing as in ''SR5'' and ''5.5'' is not the original Mario, as mentioned at one point by one of the [=BroDutes=].]]
* {{Vaporwave}}: The level "V A P O R S P A C E" (stylized like that) is based on vaporwave: the aesthetic is vaporwave-inspired, and the music is a notable vaporwave track.

* DarkerAndEdgier: This game is much darker than its predecessor. The levels are broken, distorted versions of the ones in ''5'' with bleaker and/or more threatening atmospheres (for instance, a forest level has become a LethalLavaLand). The difficulty is higher too.
* DeliberatelyMonochrome: The remains of the broken dimension are in black and white.
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: The name of the [[LethalLavaLand lava level]] Red Redish Redlands.
* DevelopersRoom: The game features [=BroDute=]'s room.
* DownerEnding: No matter how many Stars you collect and bosses you beat, there's only one depressing ending to the game: [[spoiler:The Mario you control jumps into a card of his own volition, becoming a prize for the two [=BroDutes=] forever while the dimension you blew up remains in ruins.]]
* LethalLavaLand: Red Redish Redlands is a lava level.
* MeaninglessLives: Zig-zagged. Unlike the source game and most of the series, this one tried to make lives matter by implementing strict SaveGameLimits, so a GameOver can actually set you back a lot. There aren't a lot of [[OneUp 1-Ups]] either. However, there is still an exploit that renders lives kind of meaningless: this hack lets you pick "exit course"
from real Stars.the pause menu even if you're not standing still, so if you for instance realize you're about to fall into a {{Bottomless Pit|s}}, you can just exit the course to save a life. Also, if you're playing on an emulator (which you probably are), there's nothing stopping you from using save states.
* SaveGameLimits: You only get to save three times before getting 40 stars. (If you're using an emulator, there's nothing stopping you from abusing save states, however.)
* SlippySlideyIceWorld: Cold Blue Ice Islands lives up to its name.
* TimeTravel: The course Sinister Metallic Void Madness has a time travel gimmick: You can use the time travel posts (from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehogCD'') to switch between the present and future versions of the level.

* LevelAte: Soda Sea Sweets is a level made of sweets.
* SlippySlideyIceWorld:
** Snowo Lake is a winter-themed level.
** Most of Crystal Floor Heights is floating floors of ice.
* ShiftingSandLand: Tarpit Canyon is a desert level.

* CameraScrew: The game recommends the Mario cam for the Timerock battle, but even if you use it, prepare for rapidly-shifting, awkward angles.

* {{Crossover}}: This ''VideoGame/SuperMario64'' hack features a lot of ''Franchise/{{Touhou}}'' stuff. Most of the game takes place in Gensokyo, the music comes from ''Touhou'', some ''Touhou'' characters serve as bosses, and so on.
