Warp from 1-1 to 8-4 with Aribtrary Code Execution?

Just wondering if anyone has tried to discover any arbitrary code execution glitches in this game. If you could change the variable that controls where Mario warps, you could enter the pipe in 1-1 and come out in the last room of 8-4. Is this possible?

ye, i think there is no discovered way to make a code execution like that in this game because like there is not a lot to work with for that or something

Makes sense, most ACE glitches involve abusing items in the inventory, which this game does not have. Still I wonder if there are other ways to write new memory values in.

ACE is an incredibly powerful glitch, but there is no realistic way to edit memory in valuable ways. Plus, the run is so short that it's possible that warping to 8-1 wouldn't even be faster, depending on what's found. That's assuming that ACE is ever found in SMB1 which is unlikely.
