Hi all!

Edit: It works. There were just some bug in the Matrix or I was just… not pressing those buttons the right way, I don’t know.

So, I knew about the “cheat code” for Super Mario Bros. to continue from the world where you died last time. (Hold A on the title screen and START)

The thing is, it doesn’t seem to work playing the game through Nintendo Switch Online Nintendo Entertainment System.

If I lose all my extra lifes and die, back on the title screen holding A and pressing start still drops me back to 1-1.

What am I missing? Is it really not working in this version of the game, or I’m the one who can’t press 2 buttons?

I’m playing it on the Switch 2 and using an 8bitdo wireless Pro controller (as a wired Pro controller) if it matters…

Thanks!

    I went to check it and… believe it or not, but it works now. With Joy Cons and with the 8bitdo controller as well. So I have no idea what did went wrong this morning. I was doing it multiple times, from world 3 and 4 and nothing. Weird!

    Thanks!

      Heh, no worries. It happens. Don’t know how many times I couldn’t get anything to work, and then when I try to show it to someone it would auto-magically work properly.

      Can you update your post add that it’s fixed. Would let others know that it’s resolved.
