ITT: Video game rumors you believed when you were younger

ITT: Video game rumors you believed when you were younger.

So many hours in cruel melee to unlock Sonic and Tails ;_;

>Always believed in the Mew under the truck secret
>Finally get there via glitches
>Spend a good half hour trying everything I have to push the truck
That and also the Mossdeep space station letting you go to space and fight Deoxys were what fooled me at a younger age. Least they made part of the second rumor happen in ORAS.

Unlocking Waluigi in Super Mario 64 DS

> the Mossdeep space station letting you go to space and fight Deoxys
This, however, was my "Mew under the truck".

>thought the space station would take you to the moon, where you meet Jirachi

Really thought this was going to be an "go to your local store to get an event only item" thing when the Jirachi movie came out

>Hear from a friend about a way to get the frogs to come back as Adult Link
>If you play all the songs it makes the frogs giant
>They hop you to an area with the best scale, the Platinum Scale
>Go back to being a child
>You get to swim down to the hole in Zora's Domain with it
>That gives you access to the Sacred Realm
>Then you have to beat Ganon as Adult Link
>Secret cutscene starts
>Ganon's in the sacred realm
>You go to kill him there
>He takes the triforce
>Battle where he's fucking gigantic

I believed the shit out of it, and I still love the idea.

Mii Outfit C.

>Cynthia giving you the Azure Flute once you get all of the Battle Fronteir Prints in Platinum
>All of those hours farming for items and mons for the prints all for nothing

If this doesn't happen in Sinnoh Remakes i will eat a shoe.

>that kid who said he unlocked Toad with an action replay, invited us to his house to show us, and "accidentally" deleted his save file before we got there

Fuck you, Nick.

>all that time spent trying to hit the "2D black box" on the side of the castle (seen on the file select, but not the actual game) that "could only be seen from a certain angle" to unlock the Waluigi level

my friend in elementary school told me that it was possible to find a secret island in wind waker if you sail off the edge of the map in a certain square, but he didn't remember which

I sailed around the whole map, and didn't find shit. fuck you nick

There was a rumor during Sunshine that you could find Waluigi if you did everything and that his boss fight had him steal F.L.U.D.D from you, and that beating him would unlock Luigi.

>Bill's backyard

...

Testing how much you know with this one image.

This.

Not a rumor but I wasted days of my life trying to figure out the secrets about Fake Crash. Too bad there's no secret.
For the longest time I thought he was playable in Crash 3 since you could play as him in CTR.

Reminds me of that obscure "Who would think to do this?!" way to unlock Fake Crash in the GBA version of Crash Nitro Kart.

Is that Akuma in Resident Evil? Or it's Dino Crisis?

nigga I need this, explain please

A more recent one, but there was this hoax I knew that you could find Killer Moth in Arkham City. He spawned at night, and only around bright lights, and he'd apparently fight you one-on-one if you found him. After that, he'd go into the same cell as Calendar Man and do some banter with him.

Resident Evil 2 had this April Fool's rumor where you could play as Akuma.

FUCK, if only it was true.
