      All secrets in all games that he has not discovered, but others have, can only be explained by development of advanced AIs that have never been replicated or exposed, and which accomplished nothing but seeding minimally differing memories in the brains of some videogame players.

    As a software engineer that develops A.I and complex machine learning. It is nearly impossible that the game would have this sort of exicution power as it would literally defy the laws of physics. You see the game nor the hardware contains a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of the cpu power or storage space required to pull off a complex learning algorithm. IF any of this did occur then its a flaw in our reality and would only mean that we are living in a simulation and this game is a easter egg to our simulation.

    To be real, I honestly believe in the personalization in this specific way: when you're a kid, you play a lot of Mario 64. Because you're playing so much, you begin to dream about it. In these dreams, new and strange things happen. I think that sometimes in thinking back to when we were a kid, we can somehow recall these dreams, and begin to wonder if it was a real memory or not. Our minds create the personalization.

    The mention of ‘Dreams’ and ‘Nightmares’ is in fact true because I have experienced it myself. It started a couple weeks back when I was laying down in the dark (stupid idea) watching Greenio’s sm64 personalised videos. A couple nights when I’ve been asleep I’ve had nightmares from the videos but I just don’t know how to explain or remember exactly what happened in these nightmares. But all I can remember is the horrible, terrifying screams and music from these videos and moments of luigi… Baring in mind these nightmares were in a perspective of the game itself but I wasn’t sitting infront of a tv screen or computer but almost like I was in the game running around behind Mario experiencing all these terrifying moments. But luckily I haven’t had anymore of these dreams and nightmares.

      It’s even creepier since the day the found Luigi was 24 years and 1 month(2401)after the game came out. It somewhat adds flames to the “The game is catered to the players desires” theory. It really makes you ask, was the Luigi leak planned by an ultimate unknown force or was it just a pure coincidence?

    I feel a game that's personalized based on the choices you make can be incredibly interesting. Something loosely based on the idea is in Pokemon Yellow.
    The evolution his Eevee gets depends on your actions in your two first battles. If you lose both battles, his Eevee becomes Vaporeon, the easiest to fight. If you lose one of the battles, his Eevee becomes Flareon, the nuetral option. But if you win both battles, his Eevee becomes Jolteon, the hardest for your starter Pikachu to battle.
    I find this fascinating. I would love to see a game that is entirely based on choices made by the player. I mean, Undertale has the right idea, but you can still have the exact same adventure as anyone simply by not killing anything, or doing the opposite. No, I mean a game that starts out familiar to everyone, and little details begin to change as you make progress and make choices. Based on how you play, your experience could be completely different than someone else's. Creepy, but fascinating, and also could be possible, depending on how far and deep you want it to personally effect things.

    I remember one time, I was at this place called DraftCade, and at DraftCade, they had a Nintendo 64 hooked up on a tv, and you could ask for a cartridge, they would give it you, and you could play. I was play Mario 64, and I remember one of the paintings in peach’s castle, which normally was one you couldn’t enter, could be entered. And I remember this huge level, it was like, a swamp with a big statue in the middle. It was pretty fun, and since my family were playing the arcade games, and the employees were just chilling since they didn’t have to do much, nobody asked me about the level. After a bit of playing, I couldn’t figure out how to beat the level, so I exited the level, saved, and took out the cartridge. I then went to play some digdug. I wonder if any of you have seen that level before. If so, could you tell me what you saw in it?

    Just in case this blows up sometime soon, I'm writing a note here. I want everyone to know that this whole thing took off in late May of 2020, and I've been on the ride since. The Wario Apparition and Personalized Copies might seem like hot new memes, but genuinely, as simple and fun as it might sound, there was something far far much more deeper than just a couple online jokes, and we were there to experience it all.
    This video is like a time capsule of everything we went through together. I know I'm gonna be looking back on it in three, five, even ten years, who knows. It's been a great and honestly kind of unsettling ride. It's wonderful, and I hope in the future a couple people can look back at this and see Mario 64 lore and theorycrafting for exactly how simultaneously horrifying and hilarious it all is, and for the other fact..
    that it's all real

    I’m loving this new era of online creepypasta. I’ll look back on this one proud for being a part of it. If only I had an N64 when I was younger, the effect would really mesh with me and feel a lot more immersive. Even now, playing M64 gives me new ideas for the whole iceberg theory- as well as explanations for other, preexisting theories. Keep it up internet. There’s nothing else to do.

    In this comment, I'm going to try show you how this is all just a fake creepypasta to scare you.
    Wet dry world
    There isnt even a brain diagram in the files of the game, even in the newer source leak. He also uses a ton of overly complex pseudo science to explain the feeling of wet dry world instead of simply explaining "the world is very closed in and feels claustrophobic".
    The beta penguins
    This one is very easy to explain. Someone makes creepy story. Person is scared by creepy story. They think about the creepy story all day. They might have a dream about creepy story. This obviously wouldn't happen with everyone, but maybe with some people.
    Wario apparition
    This one is just a meme, there is no actual proof of it other than "guy said it true, must believe guy" and him saying the word "builds" and "beta" to give off the old=scary effect. The one image people use to try give proof to it was part of a Nintendo conference where Wario insults the game "you think this is fun? You got to be coocoo crazy! *You want fun? Wario show you fun!"* , he then shows a ton of arcade games and stuff before the video ends. The "subconscious thoughts" part also makes no sense, why doesn't a massive bowser, or any childrens character in their thoughts chase them? Why specifically wario? You can also look at some memes about it to see just how absurd it is.
    The end of the video
    Literally just a ton of pseudo scientific terms to try make it sound more real.
    So yeah, this is all just dumb stuff to scare you. I wrote this just for people who were actually scared by this, I know a lot of people already know this is fake.

      I can explain that the every copy of mario 64 is personalized thing is real IN A WAY. A real example of this is shown in the race levels of koopa or the big penguin. If you take a shortcut on those races. Theyll call you out on their dialogue. This little change in dialogue that was dependant on your actions is already personalizing a game for a group of people that takes a shortcut

      Think of it like a train track. Unless someone switches the tracks and you follow on another track, you'll keep going straight just like the game intended too, but if you DO take another track, that was also supposed to happen. You cannot say a game is "Personalized" if everyone can experience the exact same scenario effortlessly

    Alright, what about this. Quite a few years ago I would have frequent dreams that clearly involve this game. I was mario but in first person. The textures of the castle were the same with identical floors and walls. The difference was the same room I was taken to.
    A long and incredibly tall castle room with both large and small paintings scattered throughout. I can only remember one and I was a cloud-like area. Think of the secret flying area in the foyer but much larger and with no castles in sight. Strangely enough I had the exact dream so frequently that it was committed to memory.

    The thing you said about mario falling:
    I didn’t get that feeling when thinking him of mario running. However! I’ve been doing backflips like for 8 years now. I’ve never failed doing one on the ground. But for some reason when ever i think me doing one I just can’t think of it landing and thus I’d always brake my neck. It’s a really weird feeling and i assume there is a connection.

    for all the people feeling the need to call this all out for not being real: of course it isn't, that's not the point. anyone with a brain can work out that advanced ai and all could not have ran on the N64. that's the fun of it, though. some fiction better if you give into it, and instead of keeping such a tight grip on reality, loosening up a bit and really enjoying the story that's unfolding. content that acts like all of this is true isn't trying to make you believe it legitimately- it's just adding to the story, and the enjoyment for everyone. sorry this is a tad ranty, i just love stuff this genre of fiction and wanted to give a small overview for all the people who are seemingly angry at this video for "not being real"
