Infinite 1-Up trick

Infinite 1-Up tricks are tricks that give the player infinite 1UPs (until the max is reached). It can be done by having a shell bouncing on areas that are 1 block wide. There are other ways to do this depending on the game.
==Appearances==
===Super Mario Bros.===
In World 3-1, at the staircase, two Koopas come down. One of those Koopas can be used for a 1UP, by kicking them to the staircase 8 times.
=== Super Mario Bros. 2 (Japan) ===
In World 1-1, at the structure where the Red Koopa is, break the block with the mushroom and then grab the mushroom. Now you have become Big Mario and is now able to break. the the block on the right of the mushroom but only if the Koopa is there and then, break the second and third blocks in the top and then when you get the right timing for the trapped Koopa, hit it like in the first game.
=== Super Mario Bros. 3 / Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 ===
In World 1-2, if you grabbed a Tanooki Suit from the previous level this trick is possible. The is a pipe at the start of the level that spawns Goombas, if you bounce from Goomba to Goomba, you can get a lot of 1-Ups.
=== Super Mario 3D land ===
In World 1-2, after you go into the next room after the checkpoint there's a row of 3 "?" blocks and 3 Koopa Troopas, go to the first one that shows up and continuingly step it until you max out your lives.
===Super Mario 3D World===
In World 1-2, you can ground-pound through some Crystal Blocks into a room with a Koopa Troopa. Defeat the Koopa Troopa, then use its shell in the hole to come out of the room. Bounce on the shell over and over, until your lives are at three crowns (1110 lives).
=== Super Paper Mario ===
The 1-Up trick is obsolete here, though still being possible (as 1-Ups do not exist in this game). As it turns out, you can exploit Super Paper Mario's scoring system to get a net loss of points from the shell (normally, it dies before this happens), allowing your score to eventually go down to zero (although you will level up if you had 4500+ points to start).
