Line 99:
* [[The Lost Woods]]: World 3 in Something takes place in a forest. Like the Forest of Illusion, there are many secret exits in this forest.
* [[Mad Scientist]]: Von Toad II. He's smart enough to come up with the things he rides in the Something series.
* [[Magic Mushroom]]: Hasardous House in Something is based around the gimmick of the ? Mushroom. Its effects are randomized. <ref>These effects include exploding on Mario's face, receiving many coins, acting as a Mushroom or Poison Mushroom</ref>
* [[Man-Eating Plant]]: The Munchers and Pumpkin Plants in Something and the Fruit Vines in Something Else.
* [[Marathon Level]]: {{spoiler|Switch Room in the Evil Guy's moon base. To finish the level, Luigi has to press the four switches and activate the switch block bridge.}}
Line 149:
** Luigi gets to storm DDDark Castle <ref> a World 5 secret level</ref> in Something Else. Luigi even gets to fight a Dark Matter-possessed Dedede at the end.
* [[Super-Persistent Missile]]: The Homing Pidgit Bills. They're featured in Hell Ship in the Sky and they will always aim for Mario's position, no matter what. Later on, Spikitus start throwing them.
* [[Tactical Suicide Boss]]:
** If Von Toad II didn't spawn his toad minions when you fought him in Something, fighting him when his saucer rises higher would be impossible.
** If Monkey Kong didn't toss barrels at Luigi during the phase where Munchers are a prominent obstacle, it would be impossible to beat.
** If Von Toad II's machine in Something Else didn't shoot stompable ball projectiles, he would be harder to beat.
* [[Temple of Doom]]:
** Oldschool Temple in Something. The graphics come from the Pyramid Levels in ''VideoGame/SuperMarioBros2'' and the Labyrinth Zone from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog1''. The music is a remix of Marble Garden Zone Act 1 from ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog3''. The level is filled with large pits in the first half and Thwomps and spikes in the second half.
** Puzzle Itemple in Something Else. To complete this optional level, Luigi has to solve the puzzles, which requires proper use of the springboards and P-Switches.
* [[Tempting Fate]]: The message box in the secret area inside Dino Horse Cloud claims that there is no food in the secret area and that Luigi can't carry out the Yellow Yoshi baby through the door. Luigi proves the message box wrong by having the Yoshi baby eat the message box. Also, the Yoshi baby eats the other message boxes within the area.
* [[Throw a Barrel At It]]: Monkey Kong's main method of attack during his boss level in Something Else. It acts an homage to the original Donkey Kong
* [[Timed Mission]]: Running Cave. Luigi has to run to the end of the level, but the Charging' Chucks and the tiny time limit will make it difficult. There's a section where Luigi has to run or get devoured by a ceiling covered in Muncher Plants
* [[Title Drop]]:
** The word "Something" appears in a block formation in Fuzzy Tower and So Sand or Snow?
** The words "Something Else" appears in block formation in This is Something. This is Something and the {{spoiler|Else Castle}} also forms a [[Title Drop]].
* [[Toothy Bird]]: Shows up as an obstacle in The Last Castle. They're clearly Rip Von Fish sprite-swaps as they share the same behaviors as Rip Van Fish.
* [[Trapped in Another World]]: Luigi is accidentally summoned to the Bears' World in Something Else because they wanted his brother, Mario.
* [[Under the Sea]]:
** There is a section of swimming in the Lost Path's switch palace exit. It's difficult because of the Phantos.
** The level called Only Water Level in Something is the only pure water level in Something. It's unique because of the blue Angry Sun pursuing Mario at all times.
** Star Ocean in Something Else. It's filled with unhappy stars and they want to kill Luigi.
* [[Unexpected Gameplay Change]]:
** Yosu no Tera has a section where Mario has to use the P-Balloon in order to navigate the pseudo-SHUMP section, and Yosu no Tera 2 does the same thing to Luigi in Something Else.
** Fantoma Mura, Yurei no Jinja, and This is Something in Something Else also have the same gimmick.
* [[Unreadably Fast Text]]: The Something Else C3 Trailer uses this to warn potential players of the many dangers within Something Else.
* [[Villain Exit Stage Left]]: After the failure of his plot, the Evil Guy says that he's going home and frees the Village Elder.
* [[The Von Trope Family]]: Von Frog II.
* [[Wall Jump]]: The other Athletic Peach ability. It is required to pass the first half of Walljump Xtream DX
* [[Warmup Boss]]:
** The four Red Birdos in Something. Since they are Mooks, they go down very easily.
** Bigeye in Something Else. He's a giant eyeball with no projectile attacks.
* [[Weird Moon]]: {{spoiler|The Evil Guy's Moon Base in Something Else. It even has an evil smirk on its face.}}
* [[What The Hell Player]]: The message box at the end of Wet Weird Forest calls out Luigi if he hits it because he activated the message box layer 3 glitch and caused the Cheep-Cheeps to fall to their deaths.
* [[Wrap Around]]: A Trip in A Tree is an homage to World 5-3 from ''[[Super Mario Bros 2]]''. It even uses enemies from ''Super Mario Bros. 2'': the Bob-Omb and Albatoss.
* [[Wutai]]: World 3 in Something Else has a distinct Japanese motif.
* [[You All Look Familiar]]: The bears and the Miko in Something Else.
