In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, whenever you go into the storage room of the shop in Twilight Town, you see a visual effect of the shop sliding away to the left. Clipping out of bounds to see the outside shows that the effect is not purely visual: the actual objects inside of the store slide out of the building to achieve the illusion.
In some pre-rendered cutscenes in Super Mario Sunshine where the Pinna Park Ferris Wheel appears in the background, it is colored red instead of purple. This is because the color of the Ferris Wheel was changed relatively late in development, after the cutscenes were finalized.
