Funny how you included a segment about Totaka's song because there is actually an unsolved mystery that is the EXACT OPPOSITE. What I'm talking about is some mysterious Commodore 64 music tracks from British video game composer, Adam Gilmore that are titled "Mad". While these C64 .SID files are easily available online, it's unknown as to what game they were in, & Adam Gilmore himself has forgotten what they were for! I myself made a Lost Media Wiki article surrounding these mysterious pieces of music.

It felt so good to actually have a playground rumor turn about to be true.

I feel like if Totaka’s Song can’t be found in the files of a game, then it’s probably not in the game at all. I mean people are pretty good at datamining games now so I find it hard to believe that no one has even found the song in the files of the games.

Here's a rumor that I've known about since I was a kid: BLiNX: the Time Sweeper has a fake cheat that was spread onto most game cheat sites. It says that the start gate will sometimes act like the goal gate if you jump early enough. The start gate is an entirely different object from the goal in the game's code and it's literally impossible for it to suddenly start acting like the goal. Coming in contact with the start gate sets Blinx's current movement state to 1 (jumping) and plays the closing animation for it. The game also runs at 30fps and allows you to hold A during the loading screen (if you aren't already holding it before the said loading screen starts) to do a jump on the first possible frame, proving that this is fake information.

I rip audio, primarily music from Nintendo DS games as a hobby. I recently went through Healthy Recipe Assistant only to find there are no music sequences in the game, two music streams, and many short sequences for the sound effect bank, none of these are or contain Totaka's song. Totaka's song is not present anywhere in the game unfortunately. I'll note, like you mentioned Totaka would compose for the system menu and applications of many of Nintendo's systems. Healthy Recipe Guide is much alike to a Wii or DSi System Application in function, which do not contain Totaka's Song. It's likely absent for the same reason, whatever that is.

the New Segments. 10:48: Rankles the Otter Story 22:18: The Megaton Rumor

My Space was around & VERY POPULAR during the early to mid 2000’s before KZread & Facebook took off.

Does anyone else remember reading those gameinformer magazines? I remember one issue mentioning an upcoming spin off to Mario Maker called Star Fox Maker and it even came with a screenshot. I couldn't find the screenshot that was shown, but I did find many articles about the topic

I remember waaaaay back in the day (around 93 or 94'), there was an April fools joke in a gaming magazine claiming street fighter 2 had fatalities. In the article, they provided multiple pics(I vividly remember one of the pics had dhalsim streching his neck lol) and even ways to do some of them.😂😂😂

The segment on fighting game characters from more obscure titles made me think about Gameboy Color game Dragon Ball Z Legendary Super Warriors, a late release and still one of my favorites. It came out in late 2002 and despite being fresh out of high school I ate up the online discussion about three hidden characters only available in the Japanese version. To this day I'm still not even sure if it was all a hoax or not as the game had some very weird unlock methods for stuff that was most definitely in the game and the characters in question aren't hyped as being more than a glorified pallet swap.

There is some lost media for a game I played many years ago called Epic Mickey. First of all, after the second game released the studio shut down, and there was a third game in development that was cancelled. There are currently two pieces of concept art for the game, but nothing else. There is an article on it in the lost media wiki. The other piece regarding the game was that the game director Warren Spector had pitched an Epic Mickey movie trailer to Disney, the trailer has never been revealed to the public, and it is unknown if it still exists or not. The trailer does not have a page on the LMW, as the only source came from a Reddit AMA, which has only a picture left from it. The picture is on the Epic Mickey wiki. If I could have any help finding this, it would be a dream come true

It’s crazy how the internet has made it so much harder to pass rumors. Like, we spent a whole night trying to beat 20 kills in cruel man melee to unlock Sonic 😂

I love gaming rumors and hoaxes, please make more videos like these!

I can remember that last hoax I fell for were the 2012 Minecraft PS3 hoaxes that existed shortly after the game was released on Xbox 360 at 14 years old. I remember so many people made videos to link to .rar file downloads that supposedly contained installation files, but the websites will require you to fill out surveys that can never be submitted. I remember spending a whole year on those hoaxes along with Xbox 360 fanboys at the time leaving insulting responses to my comments made me lose hope on a PS3 port coming out until it was officially announced shortly after entering that state of mind. Luckily, I got and enjoyed the actual port, but I ended up prefering the PC version more.

Sonic no doubt has had so many rumors over the decades. Plenty forgotten at this rate. One example is Sonic Genesis: The Origin of Chaos. There was never much about this game. All there is that Sonic would have traveled back into the past (again). This time to see the creation of the emeralds. Ironically, the mutated chao wasn't to have any involvement despite the name Chaos in the game's title. Eggman wants the emeralds at their strongest (guess we're going to ignore the existence of Super Emeralds; although they technically are the Chaos Emeralds). There was a supposed futuristic casino stage. This one likely hasn't become truly obscure yet; but there's Sonic Unlimited (or Sonic Rose). Sonic and Amy Rose would be the main characters. Amy would have more vertical originated stages; while Sonic would have occasional "situational" parkour. This game would apparently tie into Sonic Prime. There'd be a large focus on the two characters exploring relatively open areas to discover the true history of the hedgehog species. Tails built a flying base just to look for an artifact that ties into this lost history. Ironically, something that did technically come true was that the final boss in Frontiers resembles a moon to Sonic (or in the game rumored game's case it was supposed to be a reoccurring antagonist that is connected to the moon). Believe it or not, it was also claimed that the Sonic Prime cast would completely replace the current cast...despite the fact the reason for Sonic Prime having a drastically different cast is due to it being a Canadian production and there's a law in that country that ensures they mainly hire Canadian talent due to fears of American voice actors and actresses driving out competition. There are a couple of reboot rumors that went nowhere in the long run. One reboot rumor claims Sonic was supposed to get a new start in 2014. The main thing to note would be the focus on toys to life model. An official magazine (Electronic Gaming Magazine) talked about a Sonic Sega CD game different from Sonic CD that was to be called Sonic 2: Escape from Ring Zone. It was to feature graphical effects that are never seen in Sonic CD or even the actual Sonic 2. It's possible that plans for Sonic CD changed over time; like how there seemingly seems to be earlier story material for Mega Man X. However, it's more likely this one was made up. Other rumors that seemed to have been forgotten can be found on a SonicStadium forum called 'What rumors/false info from past Sonic games do you remember?'. A couple of highlights for me are include an old Unleashed rumor claiming that it would occur on a new world called Mubuz; with the new villain being a dragon named Immarius. Sonic would become a werehog to take on the infected inhabitants turned beast. Something else that was refereed to as Sonic Excursion. Apparently there was a rather old rumor to rival PokeGods and that was the claim you could unlock a chaos chao garden. Which doesn't even make sense since there's a large focus on hero and dark unlike in Adventure 1 and the neutral garden is basically the starting garden. Another but less crazy one is Hawaiian shirt Shadow in Sonic Boom. A forgotten Sonic Heroes cheat code that required you to input in a rival fight just to have playable Super Sonic. There was Sonic Dimensions; which was a big rumor back then. You'd basically play as multiple Sonics that had different colored fur and they would lose different amount of rings. The last one I'm willing to mention is just silly; Eggman was going to evolve into a walrus at the end of Unleashed. Whoever came up with that last one must have been laughing their butts off.

Since all of the other cheats and unlocks were mostly just for power-ups and player skins, my BS detectors were going off big time. Much to my shock, you do actually get to play as the Green Goblin, glider and all.

There is a videogame rumor from almost a decade ago. I was talking with a man who owned a game store back in the 90s and the topic of the 3DO M2 came up. Now the 3DO M2 was a console that was cancelled a few months before release in 1997 and was far more powerful than the N64, but less powerful than the Dreamcast. He said that he had good connections with a warehouse in New Jersey that was supposed to ship them and that the consoles were still stored there as recent as 2014. As far as what warehouse, he refused to answer as he didn't want people sneaking into his friend's warehouse which is understandable. I will say that the prospect of a cancelled console's new stock hiding in a warehouse is exciting and makes me want to drive the 5 hours to get there.

in the style of the time, i played pokemon blue and in my 1 hour blocks of using the local libraries computer (default search engine yahoo on internet explorer) i had days of reading fansites and rumors and real cheats and fake cheats. all sorts of ones about raising a certain pokemon without rare candies, the magazine one where i was never quite sure Yellow had a Yoshi sprite because I fudged some of the steps. pikablu and 4th evolutions and "oaks secret garden" and mewthree (with the armor) were all things I tried. there was something about raising a starter then renaming it at mr fuji to evolve it to its 4th form, charcolt or sapisaur, or unlocking venustoise (from the anime)

I also thought that since I unlocked Luigi a secret way that bypassed the text alluding to how to Save Wario.

there is still rampant misinformation within seemingly reputable places for video game tips. a fnaf: security breach official guidebook (the security breach files: an afk book) gets the conditions for one of the endings wrong, saying that you need every golden plush. the true win condition is to have 39 collectibles.

Not sure if this constitutes as forgotten as it's still easy to find "information" on this fake Fire Emblem game. However, the Fire Emblem fanbase understandably stopped talking about it for years now. The rumored title was Fire Emblem: Blue Sacred Sword and Red Demon Lance. It was meant to take place in the same continent as Blazing Sword and Binding Blade. The main characters were to be the princess of Bern and prince of Lycia. It was meant for the 3DS. Ironically, there was a Fire Emblem announced for the 3DS. However, it wasn't the blatantly false rumored title. It was instead Fire Emblem Awakening; which in itself takes place long after a previous Fire Emblem game (New Mystery of the Emblem).

I remember spending hours searching about secrets and cheats for Zelda games in the mid 00s, most notably Ocarina of Time and at least half of them were completely false (good old Overture of Sages, Beta Quest, Unicorn Fountain under Zora's Domain, Biggoron's Dungeon in TMC, permanent Fierce Deity Link in MM without glitches, etc.), but it's funny nowadays because a lot of them were only fun glitches that became extremely important years later for speedrunning, like Ocarina Items, Forest Escape (usually with cartridge tilting, but I remember reading about Navi Dive), Swordless Link, even some minor things that helped discover Item Manipulation a lot later. Magazines were such a shitshow for hoaxes at the time, I'm too young to have read any of them myself, but I've read a lot about these online, from Sheng Long in SF2, Ermac in MK, Nuder Raider, Luigi in Mario 64 (L is real, of course), Peach in SSBM, All Bonds in GoldenEye 007, resurrecting Aerith, all that "good" shit. I understand they had to publish something and if they had an "exclusive" news, it would attract readers, but that's so deceptive, it's kinda incredible that nobody cared. It's also kinda funny that those rumours persisted into the 10s, with things like Herobrine in Minecraft, all those fake Pokémon leaks or hell, even Polybius in a certain way. They're nowhere near as common as in the 90s / 00s, but they're still here, people are still falling for fake rumours becasue they want to believe.

I remember falling for a fake Animal Crossing: Wild World cheat on GameWinners back in the day. It said to visit Nook's shop on the dead of night and knock on the back of his store with a shovel until a wall broke. Then Nook would let you in to do some late night shopping. I had no idea at the time that this cheat was distorted from the actual secret in one of the JP-exclusive AC titles. Plus my young self didn't want to mess with the DS clock, so I actually stayed up late to try out the cheat and ended up going to be feeling stupid.

i remember all the way back in 2000, my uncle and his friends were playing Driver 2, and there was a rumor about a hidden switch at the church, he and his friends never found it nor did i when i tried xD found out it was a rumor that spread all the way back then. dunno how they found out about it but i guess he had the internet back then XD

Your videos are really enjoyable to watch.

When I was a kid I bought rumors about Waluigi in Super Mario 64 DS hook line and sinker, to the point where it’s probably my most completed game in the series just because I would hardfocus every theory I heard, which often included getting all the stars. It got to the point where I started taking ‘advice’ on it from a special needs kid I’d sit next to on the bus who would tell me that there’s a hidden cannon in Tall Tall Mountain that would shoot me to where I could unlock him. Kept me busy at least.

1:15, We really just living the same life, huh?? Bro even mentioned the cheat code booK!!

Soul Calibur was called Soul Edge on the Dreamcast (and Saturn, or Playstation, or both. I owned it for DC). I remember when the name was changed to Soul Caliber, when the games moved on to multi console releases.

Soul Calibur is the sequel to Soul Edge. If anything, Soul Edge is known as Soul Blade on the PlayStation overseas.

@@tidepoolclipper8657 Yeah. That was what I was saying, but you explained it better. Thanks.

I had those cheat codes books for the PSP in 2007. Good times

3:56 So in terms of Metriod 64, the two companies could have been RareWare or DMA (aka Rockstar) because of their success in the industry at the time of the rumors. A member of the youtube channel DidYouKnowGaming was able to get ahold of anonymous low-level devs from Rare and Jamie King who cofounded Rockstar. They all said that they heard about the rumors and that they were just rumors and weren't part of the game's supposed development. I have originally watched it all in a compilation video, but I found the original DYKG video here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/jIVs2sNtlNXKpbQ.htmlsi=XwWgGJJKsFTBlSXc?t=1299 (timestamp included regarding what was mentioned before). I just thought about sharing this since I the idea of Metriod 64 is still in my mind.

im not sure if its lost media but i believe there was one "unlockable character" rumor i may have saw in a magazine yet haunts me to this day (then again it could have been my young child mind imagining what's in rusty bucket bay). basically the rumor was that there was a hooded person in rusty bucket bay. if you go to them and interacted with them you would have been able to switch to a blonde bear character with spiky hair that had none of kazooies abilities. i thought it was neat as a kid but i later realize that blonde spiky bear is just a recolor of banjo made to look a bit like cloud (witch is odd cause i NEVER played final fantasy at all). so maybe it was from a magazine or guide or something? im not sure

Deja vu- welp at least it has a few more

"Tried for 20 minutes" BLAZE IT!

more vids like this please

12:47 the sega multi mega is the cdx, not 32x. It was a genesis + sega cd combo unit

To reset the game in soulcalibur the command is A+X+Y+B+start

back in the gta san andreas days, i was super invested in the conspiracies online. bigfoot, leatherface, aliens, ghosts in the woods, etc. i tried so many things to try to capture anything strange with the camera lol.

Plus one for mentioning scholastic

My favorite one that's real that sounds fake as fuck... Starfox: In level 2, you have to shoot three rock pillars in a row dead center RIGHT before they hit you, and then a floating head will appear that you have to shoot. It will turn into a black hole, where you can then warp to different routes

the faster you beat Metroid, the less clothing Samus had on at the end.

Except that one is technically true. In NES Metroid; she'll either be wearing her armor, regular clothes, or in her undies and bra depending on how much time you spent. In Fusion and Zero Mission, you get to see her wearing civilian clothing on some endings. Factors are time, difficulty, and item collection percentage.

I mean, that wasn't a rumor, that's fact. Everyone who finished the game knew it.

I think the first rumor that someone told me that was actually true was MISSINGO. It just sounds so fake and arbitrary, but at least it's easy to try out and doesn't waste a lot of your time like a lot of rumored secrets.

For me it was the multiplayer mini games in Yoshi's island

Recently I replayed BIONICLE Heroes but on the PlayStation, and there are rumors of unlockables online. According to GameFaqs, you can unlock a character named Gurrahk, one of the bosses of the game, by simply beating the level in which they are in. Also allegedly unlockable is the character Takua Nuva from the previous BIONICLE game, by beating the game with all 6 hero characters. I have yet to find a single source proving that either of these are true. I have played the boss stage with Gurrahk and beaten it, and there was no change to the playable roster. If they meant for the achievement to be unlocked, then why single this one out from all the others when it has no additional features? And I've played other console versions of this game with no change after beating that level, other than progressing to the next one. I'm hoping to get these rumors rectified, even though it's been 17 years since the game released.

one of those "metroid 64" screenshots uses half-life/goldsrc textures I'm pretty sure-- the one at 1:48 Look at those rocks. those are surface tension rocks
