So I was bored and decided to play some SM63. I was doing five silver stars on Tall Tall Mountain. I got all five stars, and then went to get the shine sprite, but at the precise moment I grabbed it, I hit a shy guy, and the shine sprite vanished but I did not actually get it, meaning that I was still in the level and there was no shine sprite to grab. I guess this is somewhat similar to the hit-an-enemy-as-you-activate-the-shine-sprite-and-you-die glitch in the Level Designer, but I've never seen it quite like this before. Anyone else get this ever?
EDIT: Turns out that I was credited for the shine sprite even though I didn't exit the level. I went into another section of the level and then came back and the shine sprite was there again, but it was blue. Interesting to note…maybe if I can pull it off again I can get two shine sprites in the same play-through of the level.
