Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: As the fight between Koopa and the Plumbinator begins, in one shot the camera zooms in to Koopa while under the Plumbinator's legs. Robo Koopa's color is light blue in this shot, when it is dark blue in the rest of the episode. (00:10:15)

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Factual error: Koopa tries to kill the Mario brothers, Bunsun and Dr. Nerdnik by pushing an electric pole at them. Mario and Luigi use a nearby fire hydrant to protect them by having water rush out of it and keeping the pole from crushing them. There is no way a single blast of water can stop a large pole from falling, and the brothers would have been electrocuted as soon as the water hit the pole. (00:07:00)

Robo Koopa - S1-E52

Continuity mistake: When the Marios are hurting enemies and freeing Dr. Nerdnik, Mario kicks through a gate at the start of the scene in order to get inside. This gate disappears, once when Bunsun pushes the doctor through the hole, and twice at the end of the scene. (00:04:45 - 00:06:30)

Yoshi

Flatbush Koopa - S1-E48

Visible crew/equipment: In the live-action segment, several times when Mario and Luigi confront Mrs. Gammliss, the shadow of either a crew member or a piece of equipment is moving at the top of the screen. It is not Mario, Luigi, or the Ratagator's, as they are not moving, and it is not the passersby's, as the shadow is present even when they are not present. (00:17:38 - 00:18:45)

Too Hot to Handle - S1-E24

Revealing mistake: In the live-action segment, when Mario says that Luigi has been eating breakfast backwards, the screen is briefly frozen for a few frames, revealing that Luigi eating backwards is merely footage of him eating forwards played backwards. (00:18:55)

Star Koopa - S1-E51

Revealing mistake: When Obi-Wan Toadi presents the pizza to Mario, the right strap of Mario's seat is connected to thin air. This also happens when he says that the pizza will bolster his appetite. (00:14:48)

Luigi: Hey Mario! You sure you know what you're doing?
Mario Mario: Sure, I'm doing 60 miles an hour.

Answer: "Club Mario" was reruns of the original show repackaged with new live action segments. It was a cheap way to present the old animated episodes as a new show. Club Mario was incredibly unpopular and eventually reruns of the original show with the Captain Lou Albano segments were aired in its place.
