99 Lives

This is an easy way to get 99 lives. Go to world 3-3 and go to the room with the pots that shoot out red shy-guys. go up onto the top platform and pull out the shell. Carry the shell down to the bottom, where there is a pit with a door in it. This is where you entered the room. Throw the shell into the pit and wait for all of the shy-gguys to walk in and get hit by the shell. Watch out for the shy-guys coming from both directions! The best player to use for this cheat is Peach.

Bald Birdo

Get to a part in the game where you fight Birdo. Jump on her head and press B, as if you were picking up a vegetable. You will pick up her Bow. You can either throw it at her, which causes it to appear back on her head, or throw it off the edge or something so she is bald.

Easy coins

When you use the magic potion to get the mushrooms, do not pick up the surrounding vegetables (which are coins in the magic door) immediately. Instead, find the location in each level where there are the most vegetables that are close together. Drop the magic potion and go in the door. Pick up as many coins as possible. Repeat this once, after doing something that will make the potion reappear (such as climbing a vine, going down a pipe, or entering a door).

Go through the level until you get to the sand waterfall. After you pass that part, you will see a door. Enter and blow up the wall with bombs to find many Shy Guys walking on a mound.

Super Mario Brothers 2: World 3-3: Extra lives:

Go to the part in the level where you get the key. There will be a shell you have to pull out just outside of the door where you get the key. Pick up the shell. Throw it and jump on it. Let it run you to the very bottom. Jump off the shell at the very last cliff. Go back up one more cliff, where you can pull out the veggie hearts. The Shy Guys will come falling down, because they can fall of the cliff but cannot reach you if you are on another cliff. They will fall down all the way to the shell. The points will keep adding up, until you get an extra life. Just wait until you get 99. The hard part of this trick is to get away from the Shy Guys and the shell. You may lose one life in the process.
