On the ledge above the Princess's Secret Slide, if the camera mode is switched while Mario is sleeping, he will float through the ground in a reality-defying manner. This works only on the original N64 and does not work in any rereleases of the game.

64 DS can crash simply due to the player being too skillful. If Yoshi eats a Lakitu and then manages to hit three enemies with that egg in Rainbow Ride, the game will spawn so many coins that they overflow the object limit and the game crashes.

Cool, Cool Muuntain and Big Boo's Haont

Supper Mario Broth @MarioBrothBlog The European Nintendo Switch Online version of Super Mario 64 contains an exceedingly bizarre bug where Cool, Cool Mountain and Big Boo's Haunt will occasionally randomly swap O's and U's between each other, becoming "Cool, Cool Muuntain" and "Big Boo's Haont". This is how the name normally appears in the pause menu: 4 COOL, COOL MOUNTAIN Keep switching between levels and eventually it may become this: 4 COOL, CUOL MOUNTAIN Or alternatively, this: 4 COOL, COOL MUUNTAIN The same happens with Big Boo's Haunt, which is normally this: 5 BIG BOO'S HAUNT But may change to this: 5 BIG BOO'S HAONT The reasons for this are unknown.

Bob-ombs normally patrol separate areas so they never touch each other in a calm state. However, exploiting a quirk in their programming to cause them to leave their area and touch another Bob-omb reveals that they explode on contact despite being calm.

This was definitely done on purpose

Supper Mario Broth @MarioBrothBlog In Super Mario 64, Mario always enters Big Boo's Haunt at the coordinate X=666. The entire mansion is also centered on a vertical plane going through X=666. Whether this was a deliberate decision by the developers or an incredible coincidence is unknown. 3x4 MAPINFO AREA 9x0 AxO GSTATU BGAREA DPRINT In Super Mario 64, Mario's spawning point in Big Boo's Haunt has an X coordinate of 666. Above is a screenshot showing the unused in-game debug mode (accessible with cheats) showing the value, circled in yellow, directly after entering the course and not moving. Moreover, the entire mansion seems to be centered on the X-666 coordinate. Here, I added a vertical plane marking the coordinate to a model of the course. Note how it goes exactly through the middle of the mansion and divides it into two equal halves. Whether this is a deliberate reference to the demonic connotations of the number 666 to fit the unsettling nature of the course, or simply an astonishing coincidence, is unknown. ource: models-resource.com user "Pyro Jay", models-resource.com/nintendo_64/supermario64/model/38704/; Supper Mario Broth, screenshot taken in a N64 emulator, game: SM64 (NA, N

Wiggler the Unkillable

Supper Mario Broth @MarioBrothBlog The unreleased 64DD prototype version of Super Mario 64 cannot be 100% completed because Wiggler is literally too strong for the game to handle. An oversight briefly gives him 1024 health for one frame, which crashes the game as it cannot handle such a high amount of health. In 2014, a prototype for an unreleased version of Super Mario 64 for the Japan-only 64DD add-on for the Nintendo 64 surfaced. This version is mostly playable, except that it cannot be 100% completed due to the inside of the cave in Tiny-Huge Island, which contains two stars, crashing the game upon being entered. Examining the crash closely reveals that it occurs due to Wiggler, who resides in that cave. Wiggler is supposed to have 3 health. However, when the room loads, for one frame, his health is set to a whopping 1024 instead before another line of code sets it to 3. As his behavior is determined by his health, a table is used to look it up. The table, naturally, has 3 entries as those are the amounts of health he is expected to have. Having his health become 1024 causes the game to look on "line 1024" of a 3-line table, which is way past the end of the table and executes unintended code, crashing the game. Curiously, the exact same oversight occurs in the original Nintendo 64 version of the game, except that the unintended code the game encounters there ends up simply doing nothing instead of crashing. As such, it was merely a small change in the order of the instructions during the porting process to the 64DD that caused this effect. Source: ukikipedia.net/wiki/Super Mario_64#64DD_Version
