Disturbing Moments in Super Mario 64 Iceberg Explained (Easter Eggs, Disturbing Moments, Theories)

Ойындар

Super Mario 64 has one of the most devout communities. The game has endless content it seems, maybe for more than one reason. The Complete Super Mario 64 Nightmare Fuel Iceberg explained is the first in a new nightmare fuel series I'm going to be trying on the channel. I hope you all like it.

    Yeah, same here. I was never really bothered by anything in the game. Some things are a bit unsettling but in the slightest amount possible. I had played several games before this that were legit more disturbing so I guess I had become numb to it. I can see how some would be creeped out by some of the content, especially those who only had experience with more kid friendly games.

    23:24 It got so, SO much worse in the Galaxy games. They toned down the drowning, but the way Mario goes belly-up and his eyes don't shut all the way is kind of chilling. They made quicksand a lot scarier, and Mario dies instantly when crushed. I'm not even going to go into detail about the logistics of falling into space, especially when the galaxy is in a planet's orbit. Black holes and dark matter are terrifying, and the death animation for electrocution is infamous for being the goriest and most out-of-place death in a 3D Mario game.

    I'll tell you why the cake scene is creepy. It's because for no reason they decided to trap you there. They won't let you go back to the main screen, it just sits there in silence. It's sort of laziness on the developer's part that turns into creepiness because it causes the player to be stuck staring at a blurry image completely out of place with the artistic style and assets of the rest of the game in complete silence.

    I actually vividly remember my first playthrough of this game, I was using another family member's copy of the game because I was a tiny child, but I remember the pretty intense fear of the chain chomp in those fields never being idle. I couldn't get around it. It was always just all the way stretched out in the direction I was and I couldn't get around it because of that. I think my uncle managed to get around it by tanking some damage, but whenever I quit the game and came back to that area, it was still like that

    That secret Big Boo laugh... that's the most recent thing for me. I was actually playing All-Stars on the Switch about a month ago now, and I got that laugh. I had it recorded but accidentally deleted it when I started running out of video space, and dang I was kicking myself so hard afterwards... I've noticed though, the main time it seems to play is when Big Boo laughs at the very second you head through the front door of the manor, and both the audio of the opening door and his laugh play. The timing is INSANELY hard to get though, and I haven't been able to get that laugh since. As a kid amazingly, the piano and Unagi never scared me, but Tiny Huge Island's fish traumatized me. The eel just kinda swims around, minding his own business, the piano you never need to deal with other than getting the red coin. They'd hurt if you touch them, but that's about it. But those fish... the way they swim at you, mouth open to actually eat and OHKO you was genuinely terrifying and disturbing to me. It still kinda is to this day.

    The Shared Nightmares one is so bizarre to me because when I was younger, I absolutely loved playing SM64 (i was like 7 or 8 back when the n64 was the console) but if I played too much I'd get horrible nightmares. I also believed that the Game Over screen triggered it so I'd turn off the game quickly if that happened or I'd restart if i got close. No other game did this to me, not even OoT (though OoT was less scary, more mysterious), Pokemon (we all know about Missingno) or even watching some more mature games that I was allowed to (like Resident Evil).

    For anyone who isn't aware. We knew for a long time Luigi was planned for Mario 64, as Miyamoto has said numerous times in interviews that the game was originally planned to be multiplier with Luigi as the second character. We knew he was planned for the game long before the data leak. I know that kinda ruins the story of "Luigi was finally discovered in a data leak decades later", but unfortunately you can't always have a good story.

    almost everything on the first layer is something that i was scared of when i was younger, and the fact that all of the explanations to those things were pretty accurate to how i felt honestly scares me. the entire time i was listening to the first layer i was like "i remember being scared of that". of course i don't feel like that about those things now at all but hearing these things brings me nostalgia in a weird way.

    Re: Big Dud: One of the Bob-omb Buddies (the pink Bob-ombs) actually says that "King Bob-omb is nothing but a big dud now" in subsequent star missions after you defeat him. That third ball appearing specifically on any star that isn't the first one is just way too much of a coincidence...

    This ended up being kinda cool. The iceberg itself seems to be nice a tribute and retake on the regular Mario 64 iceberg that blew everything up. Even before all that though I was always interested in the overabundance of stuff in this game that creeped people out as kids. So it's nice to see it all attempted to be talked about in one fine not bs video. Would be down for more Super Mario 64 iceberg charts that only have one focus. You know something I have very early memories of being scared by in this game? Nothing on here. It was Mario's head in the beginning popping up of all things that scared me lol.

    I think what I like about SM64 is that despite being in the enemies claws not knowing if Bowser would explode out of one of the doors and chase me down and into the forest like it appears on the cartridge game box, seeing Toad stuck in their corners made it sad. Despite Mario being alone it didn’t fully feel lonely. There was a lot of color, there was a lot of music, and I felt Mario could take on anyone and anything

    I've always had a little thalassophobia and I do remember experiencing that in Joy Roger's Bay the first time I played. Eventually it became one of my favorite levels (I adore the music) but yeah. creepy. I definitely was one of those who got a lot of weird stuff out of the game as a kid owing a lot to it being my first 3D game and it being such a weird, isolated experience. Also one of the things that makes wet dry world feel strange is you can tell that you're outside, but it plays the music that has been used for underground levels since literally the first game. It's just a weird convergence of so many tiny oddities that it combines into the most iconic creepy level in the game.

    Mario has never scared me at all, however the one thing that was pure nightmare fuel for me was the Tarrs from Slime Rancher. Pretty much they spawned and would eat all your slimes. The reasons why this scared me, was the slightly ominous music and the sounds they made- it kinda sounded like bones crunching or something similar. They just felt super dark for that game and literally gave me nightmares for a month after seeing them for the first time when I was younger.
