Mario Multiverse 7.8 !!top!! -
The sheer volume of power-ups in this version is staggering. Players weren't limited to Fire Flowers and Mushrooms. The 7.8 build included iconic weapons like the Hammer Bros. Suit, the Ice Flower, and even boot power-ups that allowed Mario to stomp on spikes. The "Multiverse" aspect shone here; you could ride a Yoshi through a level designed in the style of Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA), tossing vegetables at Shy Guys, only to switch suits mid-level to fly using the Tanooki statue.
While highly sought after, version 7.8 remained largely restricted to a select group of beta testers and content creators, leading to its reputation as a "perpetual beta" within the community. Key Gameplay Features Mario Multiverse 7.8
