'''Time Stop''' (also known as '''Timestop''') is a game mechanic present in all versions of SM64. There is a trick exclusive to the [[J 1.0]] version, which allows [[Mario]] to move around when objects are frozen due to a text box that is supposed to appear.

Objects (in most cases) stay inanimate, and keep the exact same state they were in when time was stopped. If an object was intangible due to being far from Mario, it will stay intangible even when Mario comes near it until time is started again, because objects do not update in time stop.

=== Infinite Coins ===
If a coin is collected during time stop, the coin counter will increment but the coin object will not unload until the textbox finishes. If the player enters a warp to cancel the textbox, it is possible to repeat the procedure infinitely since the coin is never unloaded.

The proximity method for Time Stop is still possible in other versions, but time does not stop and the textbox does not appear until Mario touches the ground. This allows for tricks such as getting a 0.0 time on [[Koopa the Quick]] in both of their races.
