That Shen Long April Fool's joke is still the best one yet. I miss 90s sometimes.

I miss the 90s all the time.

The General Leo myth was responsible for me getting a joke into Lunar Eternal Blue. Back in the early 90s Compuserve had a really great game devs forum, it was mostly fans that were active, but there were many developers that spent time on the forum interacting w fans, including Victor Ireland of Working Designs. There were also many threads debating the General Leo resurrection myth. The Lunar games had a really off the wall sense of humor, especially from random NPCs, I was a huge fan and so about a year before Lunar EB released I wrote a joke about General Leo comparing the myth to Elvis sighting rumors (I forget the exact wording), submitted it to Victor, never heard back from him on it. Then months later after I got Lunar Eternal Blue I was playing the game, made my way to Ghaleon's Secret Garden and one of the fairies makes a joke about General Leo being a "two-bit entertainer". My jaw hit the floor. I immediately ran to my pc, sent Victor a message asking him if that was really my joke (bc I couldnt believe it) and he replied saying that he "took fan suggestions very seriously." 24 years later I still can't believe it.

About the cid Easter eggs,i dunno it was one ,i get cid alive and he stuck in the island like it wasn't supposed to happen

I had a Master System when it was current. One day, I turned it on accidentally without a game in it. No big deal. I mashed some buttons on the controller and accidentally found the secret Snail Maze game built in. No one would have believed me, if there was anyone to tell, since no one had a Master System. I remember Reptile appearing once for me in the arcade with one of his hints. I don't think anyone believed me when I told them. I played that game a ton in the arcade and only ever saw him once. My favorite myths of the SNES is that everything is mode 7. For example, the foot soldiers in Turtles in Time tossed at the screen. It's not mode 7, despite so many claims that it is. It's not even scaling. It's fake scaling. And the effect is still great. Plenty of games cheat. I've played beat-em-ups where the collision detection would consistently turn off in a certain context to give bosses an extra advantage. And in Street Fighter 2(and probably other fighters), the game is programmed with CPU logic that uses your button inputs against you. When you fight the CPU, many times, you will notice that when you hit the button for an attack, the CPU will attack you at that moment with an attack that has priority. That's because the game is using your button press as the trigger for the move by the CPU. It's consistent and repeatable. To beat the CPU, you have to exploit its routines. It totally cheats.

Once I found out I could save CID I did it everytime. Dudes too nice to die.

The last one actually had me laughing with the AI calling other teams and using infinite timeouts, lol.

My favorite EGM April Fool's was the one from...I'm gonna say April of '91 (it's been a while). In TMNT 2: The Arcade Game on NES, there was an absolutely impossible code to enter on the title screen that would allow you to play as Simon Belmont. The fact that it was impossible didn't stop me from trying feverishly to train my fingers to input it fast. The EGM article asked you to try it several times then read the name of the person who sent it in. The name was "A.P. Rilphuuls" and he was from "Fromegem, HA". That blew my mind for years until I finally understood it. Yep, got me there.

Many a games I've played after all where the AI just simply go " _Nope, you're not winning._ " x3 I mean, I have a video on my channel from MK1 on Snes that I slowed down heavily just to show that that the AI grabs me out of a move right before it hits. The video is titled " _Mortal Kombat - The AI is a bloody cheater!_ " I got one that I still have no idea how I managed to do, but it was on the PS1 version of Mega Man X3 ( _JP version borrowed of a classmate_ ). On the reploid select screen, I had just been dying over and over to every single one, so I was frustrated and just started mashing the directional key to pick someone at random. And as I hit the button, the icon ended up at the bottom, between the reploids where the Doppler Stages pop up, and I had somehow managed to access the Doppler Stage 1 simply by mashing the directional key. Naturally, the stage completely destroyed me but, that was a funny glitch I encountered. Then just by playing GTA on PS1 for an extended period of time, one can encounter all sort of weird glitches in the game. Like a ghost police car that drives through you and vanishes because it was never actually _there_ according to the game.

They can jump up and catch pop flies, especially when they would result in a home run, because they're able to jump when their characters aren't on the screen. Human players, meanwhile, can't trigger their characters to jump if they're off-screen, making such catches impossible because by time your jump reaches the height necessary to catch the ball, it's already passed over your head. Also in every single fighting game ever made, because they don't need to do button inputs for special moves. It's bullshit when you're fighting M.

The rumor at my school was; Theres one final sword upgrade in link to the past, the platinum sword.. I can't for the life of me remember what supposedly unlocked it

The subtitles interpreted snnnnesss drunk as "nice trunk" hahhahahahahaha

Quality content once again, keep em coming! This reminds me of my childhood, when kids were spreading rumours about secrets in videogames, that ofcourse weren't true.

You need to do another one of these. They are awesome.

Anybody every have Sub-Zero continuously throw your character from half a screen length away in Mk1? It happened to me a couple different times, when using Scorpion. I'd continue, same thing over and over until I'd just have restart. Most blatant cpu cheating I've ever seen.

MK always had TERRIBLE reactive AI. It just reads your inputs. Even in the PS2 games they still did things like that

Most of the codes that appear in this video actually work so do not let SNES Drunk tell you otherwise. For any of these secret codes to work just remember that: you must be facing away from the screen, you must wear a green shirt, it must be Thursday, remember that your socks should not combine because otherwise the trick will not work. If you did it correctly you will hear the laughter of some relative of yours. Now you can play with Shen Long and save General Leo but shhhh! keep this secret between us.

Can't tell you how grateful I am for the spoiler warning right before the FFVI myths. I'm playing it for the first time and really enjoying it so far.

Another rumor for me as a kid that sounded too good to be true. I was told that in the arcade version of Street Fighter 2 (maybe even the turbo version) if you played as Guile and were able to do 25 flash kicks in a battle, Guile would be able to pull out a service pistol and be able to fire 2 shots.

I always thought it was funny when my brother or my friends would be doing bad at a game, and when i told the to do something or use something, they'd be like: they won't let me!! Like who's they? LoL

You actually can “beat” Vile, though, sort of in the same sense you can beat Ridley at the opening of Super Metroid.

When I was in high school, I told my best friend that if you beat Star Fox 64 three times without turning off the system, you could unlock a super boss after Andross. We took a trip to Disney with the band that year. He stayed up all night trying it. When it didn't work around dawn, he started shaking the bed and yelling at me. "I STAYED UP ALL NIGHT FOR THIS!!!" Almost 20 years later and it's still hilarious. We still joke about it.

My friend I have something for you, the General Leo rom hack rewrites the story in places and replaces Shadow with Leo. Shadow is temporary early on but later in the game Leo joins your party where you would think he would, he even has his own Ruined World story. it throws out Shadow but its worth it.

Computer: Wait, SNES Drunk is winning? Imma have to call Jaguars on that shit.

I remember back in grade school that a friend of mine told me he could actually turn Liu Kang into a dragon in the first Mortal Kombat game by pressing down forward back back High Kick when he won and bite the opponent's body off. I try this several times in multiple versions of MK1 and it never work that is until I realize he actually meant Liu Kang in MKII and not MK1.

Letting Cid die was never an option. Calling Jaguars or Carolina is solid strategy, those teams are stacked!

Wow, 25 years and I didn't realize you could save Cid till today. Makes me want to replay the game.

I'm so happy that the whole Sheng Long thing has been put to rest thanks to you.

Great video! One myth that I heard about when I was a kid involved battling the slot machine in Starfox. It was rumored that if you didn't attack the slot machine (which is accessed through the asteroid belt), it would get frustrated and would subtitle "You are not worthy for Andross" and would send you back to the beginning of the belt. It was rumored that you would have to ignore the slot machine for nearly an hour for this event to be put into motion. I've never done any extensive research on this, nor have I decided to invest an hour to try to find out. I'd rather use that hour to play super metroid, FF6, Chrono Trigger, DKC2, etc...but I've always wondered if it was true.

I remember one about continually hopping on a koopa troopa descending some steps to get dozens of extra lives in Super Mario. Wasted so much time trying to get it work . . . . until it did.

No your thinking that Madden cheats is 100% right on. That games cheats the player all the time.

Did you just call Leo an NPC?? He may not be around as long as Banon, but let us not relagate him to the same rank as Gau's freaking dad.

The pause music in Madden 95 was amazing. The bass line still pops into my head from time to time.

don't know why, but I keep rewatching this series every few weeks.

Beautiful. It was great being a kid before internet and believing this things. Do more videos like this, please :)

The General Leo thing always bugged me, and I'd heard the rumors from somewhere. Glad to know I'm not crazy, but I did not know you could save Cid!!! Brilliant! I think it was EGM that put out an April Fool's joke article that talked about unlocking Akuma in Resident Evil 2? But he would be named Tofu? It drove me wild for years until my dad asked what month that issue was from and I put it together.

The funny thing is, I lived in Japan @ the time SNES came out, plus four more years, and we heard all the same rumours! That must mean, most of those rumours had to have been started by the Video game mags.

Thank you for this video, it was extremely fun!

Gave you a like because the video is greate but also for telling me where to click next on the video to avoid spoilers that was awesome

Dude, you totally took me back to 5th grade when you mentioned the rumor about the naked Sonya blade code 😂😂😂

You don't need 100% health to get the Hadoken, i've done it injured as well.

Loving this series. Great video.

I love these types of videos. Also thanks for adding the FFVI spoiler warning.

Whenever you can , and if you can you should make a video about all the Mario bros game ... maybe ranking them and looking into the secret star world in Super Mario World , or the flutes in Super Mario 3 or even the Super Mario all stars game ( love that game) ... just a suggestion I know you guys have lives and what not .. LOVE LOVE the content man! Keep it up

That subtle Spaceballs reference... Thank you for that!

I've saved Cid before, but I usually just end up killing him because it can take way too long for the good fish to keep appearing, and the scene with Celes when he dies just has so much more emotional impact.
