Is it possible to use the escape way in Bowser's Castle the other way around?

No. (Yes, see note at the bottom)

- I modified coordinates to gain access to that platform.
- The timer was seemingly activated but was on 0 which lead to instant death.
- When dying from not escaping fast enough, you will normally be brought back to your last save spot. But here, a glitched screen appeared...
- My last save spot was in front of the gate, before Cackletta. This has no effect on the outcome of what happens when you enter the escape door.

EDIT 1th Nov 2010: As new investigation shows, it is possible in the Japanese version of the game. And on top of that, there is a wall glitch that can be used to skip all of Bowser's castle! Check here for more information:

It is possible to use this passage if you haven't saved in Bowser's Castle (or maybe at all until you arrive there).

Well, I played the German version so I didn't quite know what her accurate name was.

If you are wondering. I somehow, by chance, managed to get beamed up to the top of the screen behind the throne in the final room. That's why I tested if this could maybe skip the whole castle.^^ But it seems, I only got beamed up because of the weird wall in that particular room.

I always escaped in time so I did not know what exactly happened if it ran out. Thanks for telling me. That would probably suck if that bomb screwed you over and you had to fight that long boss battle again.
