Video Game Myths & Urban Legends Iceberg (Explained)

[@HawkTeevs]

18:17 Ho boy, here goes nothing. So, arbitrary code execution is a very fascinating form of code vulnerability. Basically, if you do very specific actions to break the game in a very specific way, you’ll be able to inject code into empty space in memory for the game to execute. This allows things like the Triforce and the Skyward Sword cutscene to be made without actually changing any of the base game’s code.

Great explanation! This explanation simplified it way better than the resources I was using to try and explain it, I'll pin this for others!

[@Uberwenis]

Reviving Aerith has actually happened now. There's a couple youtubers that show the unbelievably convoluted way to do it that requires multiple save states and bizarre stuff, and obviously it's not -meant- to happen in the game, but they've figured out how to get her back in your party after her death and you can keep her til the end of the game (barring a couple soft locks)

[@OtakuUnitedStudio]

The Cow Level in Diablo 2 was actually a reference to a fake rumor for Diablo 1. The old hoax went that if you clicked on a cow enough times, it would take you to "The cow level." Much like Mortal Kombat's various rumors, it was immortalized in later entries in the series.

[@Dargonhuman]

Blizzard even referenced it in their other games in the form of cheat codes. In the first StarCraft, typing in "thereisnocowlevel" allows you to instantly win the current mission.

I remember the rumor as having to slaughter a massive amount of cows🤔

[@tylersewell2488]

@ Nope! To get to the cow level in d2 you needed to get Wirts leg from Tristram during Act 1 and a tome of town portal, put them in the Horadric cube and transmute. This would open a uniquely so orange portal that brought you to a cow level filled with bardiche wielding bovines.

[@johnnytrash2839]

I remember the Super Mario "jumping over the flagpole" rumor back in 2nd grade (I'm old, this was 1988). There was an added component that, after doing this, Mario would get a motorcycle.

[@SuperShadowsGirl]

So, the 1987 thing in the first fnaf wasn't a reference to the year the game took place in. It was a reference to the Bite of '87, which was referenced by the phone guy in one of the phone calls. The game itself has been assumed to be in 1993, since that year matched the minimum wage that the character earns for their paycheck at the end of the game.

[@realgambadogaming]

Thanks for the correction, I should've proofed that statement a bit more, I'll add a correction in the next part!

[@SuperShadowsGirl]

@@realgambadogaming You're welcome! And sounds good! I can't wait for the next part!

[@memememe609]

FNaF1 is currently assumed to happen in 1992, actually, due to Fazbear Ent. going on Sunday-Thursday standard weekdays in FNaF2 (This would also make both FNaF1 and 2's 6th night happen on Friday the 13th). The original date of '93 was an approximation made by MatPat based on the real life Chuck E Cheese shooting that the first video was based on.

So for the triforce quest done at gdq. They basically used multiple controllers in 2 to 4 ports and button combos to basically write the code of the rom hack into the cart. This is a grossly simplified explanation but basically using a tas bot they programmed it to hit a bunch of buttons to alter the in carts code and basically ran a script to import the rom hack into the cart in real time.

The Mew Under the Truck one... You get HM Cut from the ship. Surf is later on in Fuchsia City's Safari Zone. The way to get Cut without having the ship leave is correct though. There is also a glitch to get through to the dock after it leaves, I've done it a few times but don't remember the steps anymore.

[@toumabyakuya]

The glitch goes as follows: Teach a Pokemon Surf -> Stand infront of the NPC sailor that prevents you from entering the docks -> turn your character towards the water tile -> Save and reset -> Open Pokemon menu and use Surf -> Move downward once.

[@Bacxaber]

My theory on the realistic Mario ghost is, the current state of undeath is a result of Bowser's dark magic. Now, anyone who dies becomes a boo. But if you died prior to that, you became...something else.

[@jessemiller2697]

Atari failed so spectacularly and so many times that consumers lost faith in the entire video game industry. At its peak, Atari held a market share of over 90%, so when it collapsed, it took the home video game industry with it. Then Nintendo revived the market, followed by competition from Sega, and the rise of home computers further split the market. Later, Sony entered the scene, and though Sega ultimately failed, the industry itself survived. Consumers adapted. The point is, the game industry today can’t fail in the same way. It's too diverse, too widespread. What we might see soon, though, is the collapse of the top-heavy AAA studios, as people are losing faith in those companies. The AAA industry uses its wealth to buy up smaller studios, absorb them, and then often destroy them-take Arcane as an example, among many others. But this doesn’t mean the industry is failing; we’re just witnessing once beloved companies cannibalizing themselves like a snake eating it's tail. So, let’s support indie developers, Try Steam Deck, build something new like a base in 7 Days to Die, and experiment with old and new games alike. Love or hate em, games are more available and varied and often times fun. So if all else fails , Grab a physical cartridge for your Nintendo, because I believe Nintendo will set itself on fire before it gets a taste for tail.

I'm convinced that the Lumiose Ghost Girl is likely either a running gag (kinda like the "Allan please add details" message in a number of Hitman games) or a jab at a playtester who really likes the Hex Maniac, likely one who hoped that she would fall in love with him at first sight,

With that Nier: Automata Church section, it's worth nothing that, prior to this mod being released, it was thought impossible to create a modification as sophisticated as the church. There were no modding tools that allowed for creation of new areas in the game, so it was particularly perplexing. The running theory, before it was revealed as a mod, was that it was a new secret that no one heretofore had discovered. It was a bit disappointing when it was revealed as a player creation, but it was an exciting event, and the showcase of these tools are a nice consolation prize.

Personally, I think that 'L Is Real' sign makes MUCH more sense if it says 'eternal star'. Especially since the statue right above it... is a star. Plus, I really don't think Nintendo plotted a leak that far ahead. Why wait TWENTY FOUR YEARS just to leak your own data and confirm that Luigi WAS originally intended to be in the game? That's just silly. ALSO! On Polybius. I remember watching a video where somebody dug into the myth and after a lot of effort, found out it was a hoax some guy made up to help drive traffic to his website.

[@escaperoutebritish]

The Triforce in Ocarina of Time was achieved using Arbitrary Code Execution (ACE). The simplest explanation would be: Using controller inputs to re-write the game's memory on the fly while it is running. Like using CheatEngine but to completely re-write an game entirely while you're playing it.

[@Ezel_142]

Really interesting to see a lot of these easter eggs and mysteries in games, some of them I've heard of in the past. I have a few notes notes about both SMB mysteries and tricks, which are not really criticism, but some extra fun facts: - the Minus World is actually a lot different in the Famicom version of SMB1, and it can be beaten. -1 is an underwater version of 1-3/5-3, then -2 is just a copy of 7-3, and -3 is an underground variant of 4-4. Beating the world just resets the game back to the menu. There's also a "world 9", which people used to believe it was an official thing in SMB1, but it could only be accessed through glitches or hacking the ROM. This "world" actually inspired Miyamoto and his crew to add World 9 in Lost Levels as an easter egg, which was a direct callback to the wacky underwater variants in the original game. - there's one level in which you don't need to use the screen wrap bonk glitch in order to jump over the flagpole. In 3-3 if you jump right before the left weighted platform breaks, you'll end up with the second being at the peak of its height, and if you get a good running jump, you can jump over the flagpole without any glitches. It's the only level in which you can do it without the wrap glitch.

[@regulargoat7259]

7:50 correction: you dont get surf from the boat, and mew is ordinarily unobtainable. In order to unlock the move surf, you have to beat the Vermillion Gym, which is locked behind Cuttable trees. You obtain the HM for Cut on the boat. Next, without hacking, Mew is only obtainable in 2 ways: 1) a complicated glitch, and 2) a very brief real life distribution event. A lot of the rumours around hidden pokemon in gen 1 (often also referred to as Pokegods) came about because of Mew's elusiveness.

I think the "every copy of SM64 is personalized" may have been born from the fact there ARE some differences like enemy and items placement between the US and JP versions of the game.

There's no "2401" on the statue, it's just gibberish, and people went "L is real was true!" when the leak happened which is pure historical revisionism (in those saying it seriously) because the claim wasn't "Luigi was going to be in Mario 64" it was "Luigi IS in Mario 64 and you can find him/play as him".

[@half-eatendonut9864]

I completely agree, the Reddit thread he pulled up of the "facts" against the theory were all bullshit. The points they stated in the post made no sense, the amount of stuff Nintendo has let slide in their games, especially at the time is crazy. Saying that it wouldn't be allowed is naive, and a moot point. I never noticed the baby shape in the wall, but that has me even more convinced. On top of the whole "going back to an early, weaker Giygas" thing makes sense, If he is the strongest being of all time and killing him would save the world, why would you not go back to when he is in his earliest form, IE: a baby or some equivalent.

Missingno: Adding onto this, the sprites we see is a compressed version of the actual sprite. The youtube channel Retro Game Mechanics Explained has a video titled "MissingNo.'s Glitchy Appearance Explained" that explains how sprites are loaded into the game, and how Missingno is too large to fit in the designated area so parts of the sprite overwrite previous parts.The follow up video "Fixing Glitch Pokémon Sprites"expands on the previous video by showing what the full sprites could look like. Mew in the truck myth: Not too long ago, prototype data for Red/Green was given to Helix Chamber, who eventually shared a zip file of the assets. In one of the folders is a bunch of area maps, and in at least one of them is the truck that appears in the S.S Anne area, so it's more likely that Gamefreak repurposed an old area, or reused the assets and didn't think anyone would get into that area.

When he tried to get in touch with the site's owner he repeatedly dodged questions and refused to answer, leading the KZbinr to conclude that the most likely explanation was that the website's owner had straight-up fabricated it himself and then leaked the story to the press anonymously in order to drum up traffic for his website. Whether or not that's true remains to be seen; on the one hand, it would be an awfully long time to keep up a lie that surely can't be getting you that much traffic anymore anyway, but on the other hand it's awful weird that the guy won't even answer any pressing questions about the origins of the story with an "I don't know."

The hot swap thing is weird because Square kinda did that as well. If your memory card had a FF 8 save you got a chocobo in Legends of Mana. MGS also did that if you had other Konami saves. Kinda felt like Rare had an idea for a gimmick and when it wouldn't work just scrapped it.

I don't know if anyone else can vouch for it, but I remember baaack in the day around 2004 or so the Tails Doll creepypasta was created by accident, because originally people kept memeing him into being this hardcore entity in early forums, in contrast of how easy it was to unlock him, I think all you need to do is beat him in a race and he's the slowest character in Sonic R, there also was another wing of posts that was "X thing will happen if you don't let Tails Doll win" because he was memed to be so powerful. It came to a point someone made a post about how he would come out of the screen and attack you for real if you lost to him, or because how much he hated losing and it spiraled from there. Before that point I remember that Tails Doll was really just a bunch of memes like "The Dreamcast is broadcast to be the best selling console, it's only behind because it's trying to let Tails Doll win" and such.
