Hmmm... I know I've heard that, and I've got a hunch as to in what level...
Time to check!

...

Yosh!  It's from 3-8, Naval Piranha's Castle, and instead of "what I've said to you," it reads "what I say to you."  There's also a comma after "forget" for some reason.

And I'll need to think of another question.  Perhaps I can include a game other than Yoshi's Island this time...

Ah, the Mario computer game thread.
As long as it's been unearthed, I guess I'll share what I've done, as progress doesn't seem to be moving at all anyway.

http://www11.brinkster.com/yoshisan/downloads/eggs.zip
This half-megabyte file is a puzzle/action game staring Yoshi that I still haven't gotten around to finishing.  It's essentially "Penguin Land," if anybody's ever heard of that game, and it's missing graphics / levels / sounds / musics / backgrounds / a story, but it's playable, and it'll be too long before I feel motivated to work on it again.
You'll also need the file at
http://www11.brinkster.com/yoshisan/downloads/cncs232.dll
in the same directory (or the windows/system directory) for it to run.  I think that's it.

Go Moon!

I only added "face" because the ghosts in SM64 will keep moving if they don't notice Mario facing them.
And neither of those were the game I was thinking of, Insane Steve, though it seems that there are a lot more technicalities than I'd planned, so I suppose I'll give the answer:

Yoshi's Island.  The key word was Mario.
When Yoshi's standing still or moving slowly, Mario sits on his back facing the other direction.  The boos couldn't care less if Mario sees them, as long as they can still surprise Yoshi.

And on that note, the Mariopedia still says that one "stops moving when Mario looks at it."  A copy/paste error, I presume.

So I guess the question'll be open to whomever gets to it or deems him or herself most accurate.

Go Moon!

Hmmm.... I do have another game in mind, so I'd rather somebody get the answer.
Hint:  read the question again; I phrased it very exactly.

Do you fight any boos in Mario RPG?  I really can't remember.
But it's not SM64.  The ghosts hide when Mario looks them in the face, just as always...

Wait a minute-
Perhaps I'm mistaken, but aren't you the author of the "Don't copy games and sell them see Why?" post?
And here you say that you've got an emulator of a live system and are obtaining for free games which haven't even been released?

Something's definitely wrong here...

"Mob Burial" death.  Amusing.
Alright, then...

Question:
In what game does an enemy boo not hide nor shy away when Mario looks it in the face?

Fastest way, huh?  Well let's find out...

...

Hmm... would that be having the chomp rock roll down the hill and push Yoshi off of the far left side of the level?  What a strange way to go...

Right you are!
And that's a very strange thing to find an FAQ on.

Regardless, the question is yours.

Kweh.
Alright, here's a rather simple Smash Bros. Melee (I'm considering it Mario enough) question.  It's 50/50, so I'd rather someone find out the answer than guess.

Question:
In Smash Bros. Melee, which item increases a character's mass more, a super 'shroom or a metal box?

I was trying to find the answer to your question, Insane Steve, but I hadn't yet.  Oh, well.
I got stuck simply trying to FINISH some of those later levels, so it would probably have taken too long anyway.

To answer the fuzzy/dizzy question, that would be levels 1-7, 4-1, and 6-3.

Yeah, that second entrance is the back door.  You get to it through a secret exit on that big red level (of course) and then by going through the valley fortress.
By entering the back door, you skip the first two parts of Bowser's castle, the parts where you choose a numbered door to go through, and go straight to the part with the shining spot light and the ninjis.
All in all, it makes Bowser's castle very very short.

I've still got a world map from the last time somebody had trouble:

And you might also want to check the star road normal exits, in case you just took the secret ones on some.

Meh, it's purple in my opinion.  I'm the same way about Mario Kart 64's blue spiny shell.

Anyway, what I'm referring to is the fact that, while the castle Yoshi color is green in that world when you come into it, it turns dark blue on the map after beating some levels.  If you beat 6-1 and scroll over to look, it's dark blue.  If you beat 6-2, it's dark blue again.  The question is:  after which level does that Yoshi turn green again?
