In Super Mario Galaxy, whenever Mario drowns in a swamp, his hand reaches out from under the surface before being sucked in. However, since Mario’s head is so big, he cannot raise his hand above the surface without his head being still visible. To solve this, the game simply shrinks Mario’s head so it doesn’t interfere with the animation.

In the intro to Super Mario Sunshine, when Peach, Mario and Toadsworth are watching the Isle Delfino tourism ad, Mario can be seen in a shot of Bianco Hills inside the video, wearing the FLUDD. Given the sequence of events in this game, this photo should not be possible.
