Things you didn't notice before in Mario games

In SMO, the Broodals appear, pretty funny for rabbits to be villains in a game about hats considering they're constantly being pulled out of one
 
Riding the owl and the wire pulley thingie also have tutorials but I'm not sure those count as 'reactions' per se.
I see! They do indeed have their own tutorials that I didn't realise. Thank you for pointing out!

Thank you for reading.
 
Feel stupid for not realising this before, but in TTYD, in the intermission after beating the first chapter, TEC's camera briefly shows

A window through which we can see that the X-Naut base is on the moon, a fact that isn't otherwise revealed until much later in the game. Nice foreshadowing.

Paper Mario 64 - the Slot Machine in Shy Guy's Toy Box can be used in-battle while fighting the Shy Guys that come out of it. You play it by selecting and attacking it as if it were an enemy, sort of similar to the Goomnut tree in the prologue.
 
You can mess up the whole Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time plot just by using the "Walk Through NPCs" and "Walk Through Walls" Action Replay codes.

I defeated the Elder Shrooboid while on level 15 doing that.
Is there any chance that you still have those Action Replay codes? Can't seem to find them anywhere on the internet.
 
Mario-related but the bottom of Mario Circuits Omega form has the exhaust pipes from Mario Kart 8.
 
Super Mario Galaxy has ruined Mario right shoulders but given the camera's behavior in the game, being all zoomed and over Mario's head, and everything being displayed in monitors at the peak of component analog displays, you'll be hard pressed to spot it. Still, it's enough for those over at Models Resource to freak out a bit.

Still, a mistake on the main player character of a critically acclaimed major video game release is a mistake.

Apparently, Peach's horn sound in Mario Kart 8 is the first few notes of the Peach Gardens theme. I can sort of hear it.

(and by extension, this also applies to Rosalina and Pink Gold Peach since they share the same horn sound as Peach)
