may have been a dream you had, i can still very clearly remember a dream i had about unlocking a 4th chao garden in sa2 and for a while swore it was something i actually did and somehow lost and couldnt unlock again
@@yourehereforthatarentyou I have one rare Dream one time and It was a crossover between Sonic and Zelda and no is the Lost world dlc was a complete Game
you're here for THAT, aren't you? I have so many dreams about unlocking new chao gardens, or getting new chao gardens. I had a dream about a new chao garden game just last night! I remember the first dream of chao I had where I unlocked a chaos chao garden in Sonic Adventure 2 and the garden was even higher in the sky than the hero garden. It had a long winding rainbow staircase like the other gardens, but it lead up to space. The garden had a celestial skybox and a crystal fountain in the middle. The grass was a sparkly pink too. If I could mod games I would make it a mod.
It was fairly obvious that it was fake though because the hoax was using the final HUD display, while genuine prototype screenshots had a very distinctive gradient that wasn't present in the final game.
Useful as the modern internet is, I'll miss the days of being able to spread fun rumors around and not have them shut down immediately. I suppose leaks fill the same purpose, but it's just not the same.
I remember in 2010 when I'd spend hours playing GTA SA looking for Bigfoot, before going to forums and reading up what other players found, with some even having pictures or videos of them finding Bigfoot themselves.
I remember going on a video game website in the early 2000's (around 2002-2003) and there were all these rumors on the Super Smash Bros forums about how to unlock Dark Link and Metal Mario, one said you had to beat the game as Link with one stock and No Continue. God knows I tried.
@@maric7558 yeah but for the time period that he made that, and possibly creating one of the greatest video game hoaxes in history should’ve gotten him an instant A+
My favorite hoax was the time someone claimed that Hannah Montana for the Nintendo Wii had an exploit that could allow for unsigned code, as a result, the game was bought up in large numbers, heck even scalpers were buying up copies to cash into the hype, but then it was revealed that the Hannah Montana game didn't even have this mythical exploit.

I majored in Media Study (with a concentration in film production) and minored in game design, and that B+ for the Galaxy DS video sounds so typical for a media-related class. Some of my classmates made amazing and unbelievable projects that got them Bs, yet my hastily thrown together Unity game got a perfect score. And the film project I worked the hardest on in my entire time at college got a lower score than all of my "oh shit this is due tomorrow and I need to scrap something together" type assignments. The hardest part of any media related major is pouring your entire soul into a project that your professor just doesn't understand or doesn't match their personal taste, and they don't see the hours and hours of effort put in.
dekutony in the amulet with fire, water and ice there was a black stone in the middle so people would make TH-cam videos about the secret shadow ninja temple that you could apparently unlock
That statement still holds though, there's only been like 5 protos dumped for Sonic 3 and literally 4 of them are virtually identically to retail. Compared to the amount of proto's that are out there for 2 and CD, it's a pretty small number.
Man I remember the days when I would go to school and my friends be like, "Hey! I just unlocked so-and-so character in this game!" or "I just watched this video on TH-cam that says so-and-so game is getting released soon!" or the days when we looked for the purpose of an area in a game that looks significant, but really has no purpose. And now stuff like that gets shut down almost immediately. Kinda miss those days.
As much as I love deep-dives into hoaxes and ARGs, I also miss the days when we could spread urban legends without being instantly called out or prodded for "proof".

I don't think I would have cared enough to learn about the ups-and-downs and dos-and-don'ts of the genre had I not been tricked.

The first pokemon generation. Damn those school ground rumors got so ridiculous. In contrary, missingno was real, mew was obtainable... it was a great time to grow up
In my country especially in saudia Arabia there was a fatwa (basically a rumor) of pokemon being haram and that pokemon names mean very strange and completely different stuff there's a poster about that fatwa you can find it by writing "pokemon fatwa" on google
What really gets me, is that the steps for the mew and missingo glitches are so convoluted that they perfectly fit the pattern of those school ground rumors. Always makes me laugh when I think about that.
PatMac: There was a rumor that there was a secret chocolate factory level in the original Super Mario Oompa Loompas: Oompa Loompa doopady doo, if kids will find us, then we are screwed
For that Luigi hoax, I can say that through research, you'll find that the team behind Super Mario 64 planned to have Luigi in the game, but scrapped him for more realistic backgrounds and settings for the final release.
I'll admit it, the Mario Galaxy DS hoax had me completely fooled. Considering that Mario Galaxy is my favorite game of all-time, and how good the footage actually looked, I was so excited about the prospects of potentially being able to play the game on the road. Sucks that it's no more than a pipe dream.
"It would've been incredible to discover something so huge about Sonic 3 so long after it's release." I know you go into it in this video but now we have the Nov 3rd, 1993 build of Sonic 3 that shows up the Music in the PC version was the original tracks and how THE DROP DASH was going to be in Sonic 3. The Internet is so wild and I love it. Sonic 3 being one of my favorite games in the whole Sonic series, I loved seeing all the differences.
I love mock ups of portable consoles that use discs because there's always something silly that cracks me up, like at 16:56 those buttons and sticks have no room to breathe, you play mario party Once and that disc's snapping in half
Wow, I actually remember a lot of these back in the day. But mostly as fun fan-made things rather than me actually being deceived by too many hoaxes. Like the Zelda movie trailer made by IGN. We were all certainly fooled by that April Fools Day stunt.
I'll never forget Sonic and Tails being in Melee. I always knew it was kinda bullshit but the unlock requirements were so difficult I thought maybe just maybe it could be real lol.
When I was around 9 years old I bought a "Super Mario World 5" GBA cartridge at a basar. It had a high resolution picture of Wing cap Mario on the front and looked super nice. The splash screen had also some really good looking picture of a 3d Mario on it. Then the game started and I loved it. It was damn hard because it wouldn't save but then some faithful day I just pressed a few buttons all at once and I found a mysterious menu in English that I did not at all understand. After some trial and error I found out that I could save with it. Then many years later I found out it was Adventure Island for the NES running in an emulator. I also had the Pokemon sonic bootleg that many people seem to know nowadays.
"Despite the box art looking authentic" The so called "red diamond" looks a lot like the Red Chaos Emerald from Sonic X anime. The whole cover feels very clip arty.
Allow me to correct you, for Luigi IS indeed in Super Mario 64... Or at least, USED to be... in a new prototype that got discovered exactly *24* Years and *01* Months later. So yeah, L Is _ACTUALLY_ Real.
Ok, this might be hard to believe, but I actually own a GBA Cartridge with the "Kirby Red Diamond" Label on it, I'm not sure if it's exactly the same as what was listed online, but it's just an emulation of Kirby's Adventure on the NES. Edit: Ok, it's definitely that one.
With regards to red sonic as a placeholder, that is very likely to have been the case, since in the prototypes we have, the cutscenes are broken badly and so I could imagine them putting something there to make it look nice for the camera
I'm really glad you chose to cover Waluigi in 64DS over Luigi in 64. As someone born in 2003, hearing people talk about game rumors always felt like I was just hearing everyone else's version of events. I wasn't there for the Luigi in SM64 discussions, but I was all over Waluigi in 64DS. I remember watching so many videos; one claiming that the darker blue shading in the game's logo was a hint, one that said there was a small bit of purple behind mario's head on the box, and my absolute favorite; a tutorial video where the person uses a cheat device to invert Luigi's color.
saying shy guy on his bio when talking about his weak point was simply just to show he is shy about girls and not being an actual shy guy from the Mario franchise.
I remember the Kirby Red Diamond hoax when it happened. I was 12 back in 2004 and I thought it was real because at the time I didn't know about bootleg games. I was really excited when you talked about it. The last time I saw a hoax that fooled many people was Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's The Grinch Leak last year. There have been many hoaxes related to that game, especially with Waluigi, but this ended up being the one that really fooled people because there was so much done to make it convincing.
SM64DS is my favoirite game of all time and I am very happy that you covered the Waluigi rumor. Even though ik most things about it by now it is still nice to hear new people cover it.
I'll be perfectly honest here, I didn't know what I was expecting when I started to watch this video, but all I can say now is... Well first, +1 like, and second, that was super interesting to watch, it brought me so much memories, like that time, where I was a huge Twilight Princess, and then a video popped up, claiming that a DS version was in developpement, which blew my damn mind xP
Thank you! Funnily enough there exists an official DS cart made by Nintendo that contains the trailer for Twilight Princess, sorta like the GBA video carts. I think it was made for E3. There’s at least some TP on a DS, lol.
@@PatMacYT Yeah, I eventually discovered that the video I watched was just a reupload of that cartridge's footage. But still, it really hyped me up as a kid, as I was playing TP on my Wii, and kept thinking about the release state of this "game"...
First party NES game prototypes (especially of a cancelled game) would exist on a Famicom cartridge, not an NES. An NES cartridge would imply the game was released in Japan, and was entering localization process.
The Sonic 3 story reminded me of how when I was younger,a kid I knew said he liked Sonic. We talked a lot about it,mostly Mighty injustice and Shadow the Hedgehog. Soon,he asked if I saw Sonic Underground. I told him, 'oh yeah why?' Then he goes 'at Family Video,I rented Sonic Underground the movie. There's a bunch of new characters and they find his mom!'. Considering I eagerly went home only to find video game cutscene movies for Sonic,I knew I was lied to. Not really a hoax but,I hope someone got a laugh from it
It once happened to me, a few years ago, one of my uncles gave me an Angry Birds DVD which I thought was legit, until I put it in and it was just a bunch of trailers for various games of the franchise
I was OBSESSED with the Waluigi rumor! I was also into this one rumor that said that you could unlock Game Gear games in Sonic Classic Collection by beating each of the Genesis games with all the Chaos Emeralds.
Oh heck, Kirby’s Rainbow Resort, I loved that fansite when I was younger! It seems it’s kind of fallen into disuse, at least the last time I looked at it, but I’m glad people still remember it!
Holy shit I remember the Waluigi rumors. I was CONVINCED when I was a kid that Waluigi was in Super Mario 64 DS. I remember spending so much time researching how to unlock him. I was so dissapointed to learn he wasnt...
me too!! i have a distinct memory of playing AS waluigi in sm64ds but to my surprise i found out he never existed in the game... same cant be said for luigi in the original n64 release;)
I remember hearing rumors about Waluigi being a secret playable character in Mario Kart: Super Circuit on the GBA, which if it was a case, it would make it his first appearance in the MK series, shortly less than a year after his debut in Mario Tennis. Considering that Rosalina appears in Mario Kart Wii, which was released just a couple of months after Super Mario Galaxy, Waluigi in Super Circuit would've been plausible, if not a weird choice for a secret character back in the day.
Well, not really, while yes, prototypes of Luigi in Mario 64 are technically true, it's still technically a hoax, since in the Game itself he's nowhere in it legitimately. So even if he's in the files, you can't access the files from your Nintendo 64 or anything.
@@DisastrousIntentionally If you saw PatMac's "Video Game Prototypes That Changed During Development", you would hear that he mentioned that Luigi was in 64's files due to the Nintendo leaks.
I remember playing Mario 64 for hours trying to get waluigi because even though we some what had internet we never looked up if the rumor was true instead we spent hours trying to chase a hoax.
I remember being fooled so hard by the Galaxy DS hoax that when Galaxy 2 was announced, I thought that was fake as well, until I learned that no, this one was real.

Honestly the fake Sonic 3 proto photos are fairly believable, since using a recoloured sprite as a placeholder is a common solution.

Wow, I actually remember a lot of these back in the day. But mostly as fun fan-made things rather than me actually being deceived by too many hoaxes. Like the Zelda movie trailer made by IGN. We were all certainly fooled by that April Fools Day stunt.
People now: Hey, wanna come over and play mariokart on my Switch?
People in an alternate universe: Hey, wanna play Super Mario World on my WII PHONE?
OH BOY do I have news for you today regarding Luigi in SM64
I'll never forget Sonic and Tails being in Melee. I always knew it was kinda bullshit but the unlock requirements were so difficult I thought maybe just maybe it could be real lol.
Fake Leaks are all we get nowadays when we still haven't gotten another Fortune Street game...
When I was around 9 years old I bought a "Super Mario World 5" GBA cartridge at a basar. It had a high resolution picture of Wing cap Mario on the front and looked super nice. The splash screen had also some really good looking picture of a 3d Mario on it. Then the game started and I loved it. It was damn hard because it wouldn't save but then some faithful day I just pressed a few buttons all at once and I found a mysterious menu in English that I did not at all understand. After some trial and error I found out that I could save with it. Then many years later I found out it was Adventure Island for the NES running in an emulator. I also had the Pokemon sonic bootleg that many people seem to know nowadays.
"Despite the box art looking authentic" The so called "red diamond" looks a lot like the Red Chaos Emerald from Sonic X anime. The whole cover feels very clip arty.
sonic 3 prototype came up in recommended the day it got revealed
Same. Discoveries are nice, aren't they?
Wow
and then it happens with sonic 1.
what a stroke of luck
Allow me to correct you, for Luigi IS indeed in Super Mario 64... Or at least, USED to be... in a new prototype that got discovered exactly *24* Years and *01* Months later. So yeah, L Is _ACTUALLY_ Real.
Ok, this might be hard to believe, but I actually own a GBA Cartridge with the "Kirby Red Diamond" Label on it, I'm not sure if it's exactly the same as what was listed online, but it's just an emulation of Kirby's Adventure on the NES.
Edit: Ok, it's definitely that one.
"One of the biggest hoaxes is luigi in mario 64"
Well this aged poorly.
I mean Luigi was always planned and in game development you can't just delete a character model that's why the Luigi model still exists in Mario 64
Not really. He's still not playable in the game.
@@MuchWhittering yea but it isn’t a hoax as it WAS still planned but was scrapped. It does exist in some extent.
@@boyishmistakes pretty sure that's called stretching it
@@aliciaisurdeath excuse me?
With regards to red sonic as a placeholder, that is very likely to have been the case, since in the prototypes we have, the cutscenes are broken badly and so I could imagine them putting something there to make it look nice for the camera
I'm really glad you chose to cover Waluigi in 64DS over Luigi in 64. As someone born in 2003, hearing people talk about game rumors always felt like I was just hearing everyone else's version of events. I wasn't there for the Luigi in SM64 discussions, but I was all over Waluigi in 64DS. I remember watching so many videos; one claiming that the darker blue shading in the game's logo was a hint, one that said there was a small bit of purple behind mario's head on the box, and my absolute favorite; a tutorial video where the person uses a cheat device to invert Luigi's color.
Well as of recently Luigi really was in Mario 64
Are we gonna ignore the waluigi and rosalina relationship from 14:23
And Luigii is now confirmed to be true
3:46 A beach? You mean the first level of Ice Age for the GBA?
he didn't know.
I actually hate the first Ice Age, Ice Age: The Meltdown was way better
8:15 knuckles is a shy guy
KNUCKLES IS ACTUALLY NINTENDO CONFIRMED
SHY GUYS TRUE IDENTITY FOUND
saying shy guy on his bio when talking about his weak point was simply just to show he is shy about girls and not being an actual shy guy from the Mario franchise.
/wooosh
@@stanleyfan21 WHY MORE WOOOSH>?!?!? I'M SERIOUS!! JUST STOP!!!
I remember the Kirby Red Diamond hoax when it happened. I was 12 back in 2004 and I thought it was real because at the time I didn't know about bootleg games. I was really excited when you talked about it. The last time I saw a hoax that fooled many people was Super Smash Bros. Ultimate's The Grinch Leak last year. There have been many hoaxes related to that game, especially with Waluigi, but this ended up being the one that really fooled people because there was so much done to make it convincing.
SM64DS is my favoirite game of all time and I am very happy that you covered the Waluigi rumor. Even though ik most things about it by now it is still nice to hear new people cover it.
I'll be perfectly honest here, I didn't know what I was expecting when I started to watch this video, but all I can say now is...
Well first, +1 like, and second, that was super interesting to watch, it brought me so much memories, like that time, where I was a huge Twilight Princess, and then a video popped up, claiming that a DS version was in developpement, which blew my damn mind xP
Thank you! Funnily enough there exists an official DS cart made by Nintendo that contains the trailer for Twilight Princess, sorta like the GBA video carts. I think it was made for E3. There’s at least some TP on a DS, lol.
@@PatMacYT Yeah, I eventually discovered that the video I watched was just a reupload of that cartridge's footage.
But still, it really hyped me up as a kid, as I was playing TP on my Wii, and kept thinking about the release state of this "game"...
First party NES game prototypes (especially of a cancelled game) would exist on a Famicom cartridge, not an NES. An NES cartridge would imply the game was released in Japan, and was entering localization process.
I’m gonna be honest
The Mushroom kingdom hearts hoax hurt me and I want it to become a real game because those Mario and Luigi designs are amazing
in the end, hoaxes are just hoaxes and never gets any love from a developer.
The Sonic 3 story reminded me of how when I was younger,a kid I knew said he liked Sonic. We talked a lot about it,mostly Mighty injustice and Shadow the Hedgehog. Soon,he asked if I saw Sonic Underground. I told him, 'oh yeah why?' Then he goes 'at Family Video,I rented Sonic Underground the movie. There's a bunch of new characters and they find his mom!'. Considering I eagerly went home only to find video game cutscene movies for Sonic,I knew I was lied to.
Not really a hoax but,I hope someone got a laugh from it
It once happened to me, a few years ago, one of my uncles gave me an Angry Birds DVD which I thought was legit, until I put it in and it was just a bunch of trailers for various games of the franchise
That moment when n64 leaks reveal Luigi was once in SM64
How did the Galaxy DS guy get a fucking B+???????
That man deserves a freaking A.
More like a A++
Biases probably
The Luigi Rumor is now technically true
the L is actually real
@SHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The DS game, he's playable there. He might also be playable in All Stars? Idk man, my husband would know more
@SHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! dang imagine if they made some feature in Allstars where you could switch to a “Luigi mode”, where you could play as Luigi...
I was OBSESSED with the Waluigi rumor! I was also into this one rumor that said that you could unlock Game Gear games in Sonic Classic Collection by beating each of the Genesis games with all the Chaos Emeralds.
Him: Luigi in Mario 64 is fake
Me: who is gonna tell em?
I had no doubt that "Kirby: Red Diamond" was a fake as they used two different art styles on box art.
Pablo sounds incredibly talented, wow
HAPPY 200k!!!!!
Oh heck, Kirby’s Rainbow Resort, I loved that fansite when I was younger! It seems it’s kind of fallen into disuse, at least the last time I looked at it, but I’m glad people still remember it!
Holy shit I remember the Waluigi rumors. I was CONVINCED when I was a kid that Waluigi was in Super Mario 64 DS. I remember spending so much time researching how to unlock him. I was so dissapointed to learn he wasnt...
me too!! i have a distinct memory of playing AS waluigi in sm64ds but to my surprise i found out he never existed in the game... same cant be said for luigi in the original n64 release;)
I remember hearing rumors about Waluigi being a secret playable character in Mario Kart: Super Circuit on the GBA, which if it was a case, it would make it his first appearance in the MK series, shortly less than a year after his debut in Mario Tennis. Considering that Rosalina appears in Mario Kart Wii, which was released just a couple of months after Super Mario Galaxy, Waluigi in Super Circuit would've been plausible, if not a weird choice for a secret character back in the day.
I appreciate the effort you put into these!
Kirby: Red Diamond sounds like a good rom hack
Edit: so I just realized that whenever I type "rom" it autocorrected it "Ron". oop
Rebound oωo Its a rom hackjob
Ah yes so fun to hack Ron
Yes but who's Ron tho
RONALD WEASLEY
AeronauticsNut970 Formerly MineCRFTFreak970 he fixed it it was a mistake
"Luigi in Mario 64"
Well, that aged like milk
Well, not really, while yes, prototypes of Luigi in Mario 64 are technically true, it's still technically a hoax, since in the Game itself he's nowhere in it legitimately. So even if he's in the files, you can't access the files from your Nintendo 64 or anything.
@@LoganStudiosART “so even if he is in the files” the files are the game, genius lol.
@@DisastrousIntentionally If you saw PatMac's "Video Game Prototypes That Changed During Development", you would hear that he mentioned that Luigi was in 64's files due to the Nintendo leaks.
@@DisastrousIntentionally Thats what I meant.
Mario 64 luigi is no longer a hoax, he's in there
Techincally true, but he was removed from the game for unknown reasons
This was great. I even kept hoping these were real even though the video is about hoaxes.
I remember playing Mario 64 for hours trying to get waluigi because even though we some what had internet we never looked up if the rumor was true instead we spent hours trying to chase a hoax.
You waisted your time for nothing at all 😔😔😔
PacMac: too bad, Waluigi time!
Daisy: *sad*
I remember being fooled so hard by the Galaxy DS hoax that when Galaxy 2 was announced, I thought that was fake as well, until I learned that no, this one was real.
Now that Mario Galaxy is on Switch with pointer-touchscreen controls in handheld-mode, Galaxy DS sortof lives on.
