I think there was an identical sign in a Zelda game that you could read that had that message.

But it does give a little nostalgia.

[@thatobscuregamer6198]

Dude Luigi was NOT found within the files of the game. He was found in one of the many Gigaleaks over the years, he was cut from the game relatively early in development. He is not in any retail version of Super Mario 64

[@mariesmith530]

64 ds:

[@Goober64.]

It’s more interesting that way tho. Let’s just keep imagining luigi is in the game

[@user-gq8me7qy2o]

Luigi is NOT in the game, someone sent a letter to Nintendo and Nintendo replying to that letter saying that they added that memorial in the game only to tease other people

[@SukunaBlawg]

24 years and 1 month after the release.... hmmmm L is real... 24... 1, 2401!!!!!

i'm surprised some people still don't know about luigi being found in this gigaleak, being placed in the game and then being used in sm64 multiplayer games, it was huge news

[@woahaldo4906]

2018 was the year when many games came out with their ripped code source and Luigi was actually out for a long time but it took 3 years for people to realize because of the page where the files where uploaded was totally obscure

[@aaaaaaaaaaa.a]

J is real CH405 and after 24 years and 1 month Jevil was found in Super Spamton 64

[@HolyMolyNEWTonMusicNProgrammer]

FUTURE maybe the gigaleak was planned by Nintendo

[@sap1704]

Nintendo predicted the meaning to “L is real 2401” which means “Luigi is real but will be found in 24 years and 1 month”

[@RedTHedge]

He wasn't in the files, he was found in a leak.

[@JudeRoger]

It was only 8 years for mario 64 DS, but almost exactly 24 years from mario 3d all stars.

[@SixthGenProd.]

Luigi is real, but the 2401 part is a coincidence. You see, if you take a closer look at the sign, it actually says "Eternal Star." Unfortunately, a texture compression like this can easily misread and it can lead to rumors spreading. Even if there was a meaning behind this sign, it's mostly likely that it would be teasing Mario Party, where the final board is called "Eternal Star."

[@Dragonnotfound_]

I got the feeling that the guy who Leaked Luigi waited for 24 years and one month

[@Jimbo_symbol]

Just wait for one year and we're going to be celebrating the 25th anniversary for this Legend

[@grubasekpl9254]

It year 2401 and Nintendo re-released n64 and sm64 and added luigi

[@dustthesans9]

if sm64 for ds was available 2401 days after sm64's release, yes

[@Kahuna_46]

He was in the game originally but they had to remove him due to memory space.

[@deejmix7510]

The same texture is also seen reused in a dungeon in Ocarina of Time, and it says the exact same thing. It can’t have been made specifically for that purpose

[@LennyQUMFIF]

And it just happens that game also uses the same engine as SM64. That's what's we call saving money on game development. If it aint broke dont fix it, and look at how great both of these games are.

[@evdestroy5304]

​@@LennyQUMFIF This is not actually true

[@abluehairedkid]

Hi pikachu

[@abluehairedkid]

Im your not evolved version

[@cartoonsgurl1981]

In 1998 a fan received a letter from Nintendo saying that the developers left a "blurry text" to drive fans crazy, and I guess it worked lol!

[@JoeContext]

Something I always found odd when this happened was how many people didn't know they said in interviews Luigi was meant to be in a multiplayer mode but got cut due to technical restrictions. It was the first we'd seen the model, but they'd talked about how they got him working in the game years prior at that point.

[@gezz5904]

That’s not even close to what a Mandela Effect is lmao

[@MarleyDavidson69]

Fun fact: in the early beta trailer for super Mario 64 we get to see a clip of Mario switching to Luigi so I'm guessing you could switch characters in the game but sadly Nintendo scrapped that idea

[@SubroOrbus]

"L is Real 2401" 24 years 1 month later, Luigi is real!

[@lowykgt]

they gotta make a ROM hack that enables multiplayer

[@bingolinging]

Luigi has always been a playable character in sm64

[@Somewhatsheepish]

That Mario 64 DS

[@kyansyt]

Mario 64 3ds version characters include more stars, levels, secret levels, Mario, Luigi, yoshi, wario, etc

[@EquaTechnologies]

No, Luigi WASN'T in the game files. However, there WAS a leak with Super Mario 64 in it and a Luigi model in the files. That date is so perfect, because the leaker posted it then. Also, this is not a mandela effect.

[@nathanielsoto4291]

it says Eternal Star, its a star on the statue, and its in a courtyard full of ghosts. idk how anyone believed in this, even as a child I read it normally. it makes perfect sense to be the Eternal Star as a statue of a star in a courtyard full of eternal beings

[@StripesTheEmoji404]

That is what I thought too. When I looked closely I can barely see "eternal star"

[@boxesncrates6007]

Nintendo should go back to 64 and code in Luigi mode. I swear, something as simple as Luigi sprite for 64 would blow the whole game off again.

[@Site_57]

They did. In the remake for the DS version they added a metric ton of fun content, including unlockable characters that you could use to reach different areas by searching through secret places.

[@cyanthehedgehog777]

@@Site_57 everyone knows that, but hes talking about the original

[@Mr.Fritter]

It is funny cause the year of Luigi for his 30th aniversary was 2014 kinda interesting

[@xavi_papa]

The fountain has also appeared in the Zelda franchise, that disproves everything except something that is good in Mario and Zelda series

[@spybgon4597]

I remember the day the news of Luigi being in Super Mario 64 his files came out

[@marlyarantes5890]

Maybe on 2401 we are going to get a rework of SM64 with Luigi.

In 2401 Luigi will take over earth

[@rayryde1724]

Thats why luigi is the eternal understudy

[@mauricioleonardomarincruz4429]

thats not how a mandela effect works

[@TheKill3rShark1]

I wouldn’t be surprised if Luigi was just cut out of super Mario 64, due to time constraints, and or file size limitations

[@waylonstudios]

Also the sign texture is from the Zelda N64 game btw

[@Anewstart434]

I remember the day when this happened and how everyone was so shocked

[@quantdev]

he wasnt found in the files, he was found in the gigaleak that included the old assets for sm64

[@Brandeex_laniton]

Actually, Nintendo just put some random words that is blurry to make the fan crazy which is right now.

100% whoever found it found it a long time before that but the person who did didn't show it until that day

[@beerypollens]

In the year 2041 Luigi will come down from the sky and cause Fallout

[@Cam-SB]

Super Mario 64 was originally gonna be a 2 character game ... Mario and Luigi.. brothers. But Nintendo didn't include Luigi in the final game and made it a 1 character playable game.

[@comfyghost]

that's not what a mandela effect is. also fun fact, this texture was reused for a metal sign in zelda: ocarina of time. they did this a lot actually, another texture got reused for wave race. i wouldn't be surprised if this sign wasn't tailor made for mario, just an internal collection of textures nintendo used back then.

[@user-sz2il3cx6q]

That L button super mario 64 beta click in works luigi

[@AnanimatorTheChannel]

Plot Twist: In the year 2401 Luigi will become real.

[@TotallyBono]

Smg4’s Luigi can turn into a bus

[@TravTrevTV]

Fun fact: The plaque says "Eternal Star"

[@MF_Francois]

it was from the texture of ocarina of time on the fishing sign

[@Sunburn_Gaming-69420]

Maybe we'll get a version of Mario 64 that only adds a feature that lets you play as Luigi and isn't the DS version in 2401

[@Dragonball_fan]

Someone did a glitch in sm64 where you could get Luigi he ended up getting Luigi but you can't go through doors no matter if you have 1 - 120 stars the doors were just black ( when you do the glitch you play as Luigi)

[@PizzaSmiter]

Gonna have too wait about 400 years to reach 2401

[@APOXAND]

Super mario 64 was supposed to have multiplayer but the screen would be a co op screen so they didn't make luigi.

[@connax]

2/4/01 is one day before the release of paper mario, and that game has luigi

[@losisansgaming2628]

Luigi will be unlocked when we reach the year 2401

[@chadxtreme]

The next year: I’m about to end this man’s whole career

[@tosterzyingd]

the message fully says "L is real 2401 in Paper Mar..."

[@SLG3YouTube]

Another theory that fans have is that The Star that says L is real is Luigi’s… Grave

[@bluerThanZ]

WTH DUDE, THAT LOOP WAS SO GOOD I ACTUALLY WATCHING IT TWICE WITHOUT NOTICING!

[@asbfabfoaijfo8]

btw this statue could be seen in one of zelda games. so most likely its a placeholder or something else

[@drakeshremy]

Man, Everyone has read it wrong, It's actually written Eternal Star. Edit: If you upscale the image 10x, You will see it's written Eternal Star.

[@Banan_group-leader]

The person who found it: l is real! Mario madness community: L -IS- WAS REAL

[@Pawel_Adamczyk]

That blurry message is also in zelda ocarina of time (or other zelda's games)

[@emaaaaax]

luigi was in the nintendo gigaleak not in the files there is no luigi in the cartridge I can't believe people still get this wrong

[@ShadowTraitYT]

Give us another 400 years and we'll have it in game lmao

Did Nintendo predict that we would find out in that amount of time?

[@missingnumberaxolotl-9079]

I’m pretty sure the sign just says ‘Eternal Star’ because of the star that’s in it 🗿

[@no_name78910]

Theory : when its the year 2041 super mario 64 will have a update that you can play luigi (ik this isn't gonna be true

[@69booger.]

it says eternal star lol. thats why the statue is a STAR

[@Guillermo640]

Nintendo really made a spoiler.

Bro, you can play as Luigi in Super Mario 64 DS

Just wait till he’s playable in 2401. 🙄

[@floppa-films.coolguy]

"L is Real 2401" Not only is Luigi in the files of Super Mario 64, but "L" means "Luigi" and "2401" means 24 years and 1 month (my theory)

[@tothedark5384]

I don't know why people ever thought it said L is real, it clearly says Eternal Star.

[@legrandshootay6789]

That sign is in a Zelda game, don't know which, but it is
