  • The 10 Biggest Rumors of Gaming

    by Kirk, 2005-09-14
    1. Luigi in Super Mario 64

    The biggest, baddest rumor of them all. One Rumor to own them all.

    Let's face it. Super Mario 64 was like the damn Holy Grail for us who grew up with Nintendo. It was fun, long, had great music, graphics, gameplay, everything- it was just overall one hell of a game. Everyone loved it, it launched the N64 like a missle, and it looked like Nintendo was going for THE WIN.

    Unfortunately, leave it up to what was then the Internet Gaming crowd to make a stupid rumor. This was probably one of the biggest and baddest rumors to exist to date, primarily because it was so hard, and so many people fell to it. Quoting from a website with it still on there:

    To find Luigi in Mario 64 you have to have 120 stars. Then enter the castle
    and run up the stairs and into the door. THEN STOP!!!! Turn around and go back
    down the stairs and into the first snow level. To make sure you did it right
    go against the right side of the wall and you should hear Boo's voice. Go in
    the picture and go to the 6th star. Beat the Fat penguin 7 times and then
    give the Mama penguin her baby. She will tell you to go to Big Boo's Haunt.
    Go there and kill all the ghosts and eye balls. Then go to the canon out side
    and shoot up to the top of the castle and get the 100 lives from Yoshi, get
    the wing cap. Then go back to the canon shoot up to the pointy part of the
    castle. This takes awhile and kill you, but when you get it go back to the
    canon and shoot back up there. (The roof should be gone.)


    All of this grade-A bullshit. Keep in mind this is only a SELECTION of this, as it goes on for quite a while. Plus, you got such lovely shitty photoshop jobs as this attached to it:



    Yeah, we needed lives back then.

    Seriously.
