I have only played the Switch version, and I can confirm that the handprints did appear. But only once and very briefly. If it's not present anymore, it would have to have been patched out.
Now this is actually spooky. Imagine if you called up Nintendo to ask them about why the two spirits were removed, and they responded with "We didn't put them in there."
The 3DS version is heavily optimised. Remember Donkey Kong Country Returns 3D? It's a massively downgraded port from Nintendo Wii. This is a Wii U game.
Game Theory: The ghosts were completely gone because it was the 3DS Version of Captain Toad, and they decided they didn't want to be involved with such a bizarre port
Theory: Nintendo knew about these and removed them from the 3DS version due to size limitations, as they thought that removing tiny easter eggs in order to save space was a fair trade off.
I have the switch version and the ghosts are still there. Thats how I was able to see them for myself. I think it might be because of the simpler programming that you aren't able to see them on the 3ds version
@@jordanekl5383 dude... the 3ds version has simpler programming due to how large the game is compared to the level of data the 3ds can process correctly. Im basically saying the game had to cut or remove items so that the game could work properly. Im not saying graphics aren't simple im saying the game itself is simple compared to the switch/wii u versions. Shut the heck your mouth you ignorant swine.
The hand prints must be a single hand textured that is displayed as multiple via a code that shapes them in a certain way. Meaning that the hand is probably a single texture somewhere in the files, and probably not inside the actual level, because it's not actually in the level, the hand is being pulled from somewhere else and simply multiplied through code to create all those hand prints. Now the cackling ghost is harder to solve, just because of the sheer size and the fact that it's well, cackling, but I think there is a solution to that too, the ghost spirits that come out of boos and the one that came out of trust the sign posts look a bit similar to the massive one, our massive boy might not even be a separate texture, but I'm fact a rescaled version of the trust the signs ghost that was animated by code and made faded with the help of well programming. You could try to increase the size and resolution of the small boy to see if it matches at least a bit to what we see in game. The hand prints are definitely somewhere in the files, the problem is they are somewhere people wouldn't look for them, maybe they even are in the actual level, just far out of bounds or inside stage geometry. Remember these are ghosts hidden by the devs, and you have to wait 5 minutes for them to even appear in the Wii u version, finding what they are and where they are won't be easy, keep searching swanky, don't give up on your search for the hand prints and the cackling ghosts.
You keep mentioning code, but basically none of this would be accomplished by coding. Nintendo largely works in the same way as most game development studios. A level design team blocks out the level to give a basic idea of how it should look, concept artists are given information and the blocked out level for them to create a visual concept for that level, that concept is passed onto the art team who creates the required assets. From there, they would usually pass this back off to the level design team to populate the area with those assets, but some development studios have environmental artists on the art team that would do that. Nintendo develops tools to make this easier on each team, which means that there's usually a level editor of some kind involved. This editor would give the designers control over an asset's scale, opacity, behaviour, and much more. If you've ever used Unity or Unreal Engine, think along those likes. Usually less polished, though, since they don't have to worry about anyone outside of the development team working with the tools. The level designers/environmental artists would be the ones to place easter eggs like this with simple triggers. They may be setup in a way that tells the game "on awake, wait 300 seconds, fade in material 'spookyghost'." Where in this case, spookyghost would be a material or shader that has 'ghost.tga' assigned as its texture. Most game engines are intelligent in that they won't package up what they don't need to. So, if the trigger for 'spookyghost' was deleted, then there would no longer be a reason to call 'ghost.tga' into memory. So, when the engine is building the version of the game that can be run, it would ignore ghost.tga entirely and not bother packaging it. That's most likely what happened here. The triggers for the train ghost and the handprints were removed, so the textures can't be found because they weren't packaged into the final game. (In the case of unused assets that are completely missing from games but still found in the files, there's a lot of ways this could happen. One example is that the engine was told to always include assets in so and so folder when building.
As far as 'cover ups' go, honestly it may just be a case of them deleting these triggers for optimisation purposes. One less thing for the game to keep track of, and one less material to load into vram. Very important when porting over to 3ds. The one that remains might have just been overlooked.
@@vincentjonesvr I don't really understand what you mean, because the ghost themselfs aren't in the level (as far as well know) cuz they aren't in the level editor and stuff like that, otherwise swanky would have probably found it, unless they are out of bounds and they get triggered to teleport to their respective locations.
@@void7816 That's what I just said. The triggers for those ghosts were removed. For something simple like this, the trigger and the material would be on one object. The entire ghost object was deleted, so the engine didn't package the texture that would be applied to the material because it wasn't needed. That's why there's he can't find the textures either. They're not in the shipped version.
@@Goomba456 The level in General is unsettling, and no one is sure exactly why. I think the background is part of it, but a good part of it is probably the abandoned town
I always found Captain Toad for the 3ds interesting kindof being a demake of the game for a older console. Especially with having some odyssey content in it. Kind of like getting Mario Sunshine on N64 with added Mario galaxy content as a bonus. 0.o

YES THIS WAS MY SUGGESTION!!! Also there is one you missed, in the ghost level with the rising lava wait before activating the start to go up and some HORRIFIC sounds will play
The ghost hand prints on chapter 1 episode 16 are back on the Switch version, they appear right after it hits the 300 second mark. The ghost on episode 4 is still there and im not sure of the last ghost because I havent gotten to that part yet.
Here's something interesting I found, you know the ghost level with the rising poison? If you wait around for a couple seconds then some creepy noises play, sort of like in Splatoon
This is still strange. I remembered seeing those easter eggs on my 3DS and then testing it on the switch and it worked Also I thought I remembered watching this last year but actually it was only 2 years ago
I remember when I was younger hearing and seeing a 4th ghost in captain toad. From what I recall it’s basically identical to the handprint one, except it’s bird tracks and each footprint spawns individually.
Train ghost probably doesn’t appear because on the 3ds, you probably wouldn’t be able to see it. Mansion ghost, probably wouldn’t be able to notice that they’re hand prints. Sign ghost, you probably can see because it’s the most noticeable, it’s a big white blob that you can’t miss if you see it.
I was first playing through the game around the same week that this video came out, and I definitely saw the hand prints. I was playing the Wii U version though.
Imagine if, all this time, it was just the "ghost" of Shigeru Miyamoto constantly being an Easter Egg. Kinda like the one Easter Egg in MGS2 with Kojima.
One of my all time favorite games. Always fun to play. Really hope for a sequel and I really hope they’ll keep the cube like level design. To me it’s amazing how much is in each level. All the little details.
@@SwankyBox yeah, I went to the 3ds version afterwards and it just wasn't there. It seemed like the resolution was high enough to be able to make it out, if just barely. The train one was weird because it was barely visible in the switch version and you have to wait a few minutes, so I don't know how people found it at all.
I’m seeing stuff about them being in the switch version, but I’m too lazy to go find my copy of the game and put it in my switch, so they’re probably right. They probably just aren’t in the 3DS version because removal for space and data reasons.
I don’t think people talk enough about the ambience noises at the beginning of the ghost gallery gambit level. It creeps me out so much, and I’m pretty sure that the noises also appear quietly in the background of a few of the ghost house levels in captain toad and even super mario 3D world. I only remember discovering this as a little kid and I can’t test it out anymore as I no longer have my Wii U, and I haven’t found any evidence online for it. A true ghost story
Captain Toad 3DS has models that are scarily low poly Since I don't have a Wii U I got the game on both the 3DS and the switch. I only tested it on switch and they all worked, but that was a year ago
What is Mario is cursed with immortality and every ghost is just a ghost of one of his former lives. Giant ghosts are him when he ate a spuer-growth mushroom, tiny mushrooms = tiny ghosts, etc.
@SwankyBox: The reason for does ghost appearence being deleted, on the 3DS version of Toad treasure tracker, is based on what they think in Japan, hand held console are for kid, in Japan, while full non hand-held console are for adult in japan. i have more proof of this, back on the GBA when they release the NES mini classic for the GBA the US only got Super mario bros. and the aracde version, however on the Japan side they got both Super mario bros. and Super mario bros. the lost levels which is japan exclusive, for the GBA classic FC mini. So in that version of the game if you accidently hit retry, instead of continued in a game over screen if you are already in world 2 or higher world, you just have to hold A on the title screen to start from the first level of the world you where gameover from, so once world A-through D is unlock you hold B instead in that version of the game to start in world A, and the title screen code is retain even for world A through D, for example if you game over on world B-3, on the title screen you just hold A to return back to world B-1 this was more kid friendly because if they have problem makeing a jump with mario, by doing this they could change to Luigi, and vise versa without having to start all the way back from 1-1, or A-1 if they are already in the hard section. The Virtual console version, and FDS version does not have the hold A on the title screen to start from the first world that you are game over from, since holding A on the title screen is to get access to the World A through D when they are unlocked, so in the adult version if you want to change character you only can if you start over from world 1-1, or A-1 if you are already in the harder levels.
I played the Switch version and I've seen the handprints, they only appear if you turn off Cap's headlight and wait for about 5 minutes. (On your footage I see that you didn't turn off the light.) The noodle ghost I've also seen, but the one on the tracks I didn't, or maybe I did, but it's so hard to see that I may have overlooked it.
I have the wii u and switch version and I definitely remember the hand prints from one of them. Edit: The hand and train ghost both appear in the Switch version.
Probably removed from the 3DS version to save on file size and resources. Or was probably outsourced to a different team and they removed those aspects for various reasons, such as the hands not being recognisable on the 3DS version, eating up ram that could be used elsewhere, etc.
@@ThatOneDudeWhoPostsStuff the would take up barely any file size. The game is about 1/2 a gb and a couple of kb would not impact the game much. I think they probably took them out because of the low resolution but I went back to those levels on the 3ds version and I think that they would have actually been recognizable. Also 1 extra sprite on screen would not impact preformance.
Nintendo probably found the ghost secret and got mad that it was added without consent, so they removed it, or they thought the hands and giant spirit were too scary, As the fleeing one is not that freaky. thats my guess.
I have only played the Switch version, and I can confirm that the handprints did appear. But only once and very briefly.
If it's not present anymore, it would have to have been patched out.

The Virtual console version, and FDS version does not have the hold A on the title screen to start from the first world that you are game over from, since holding A on the title screen is to get access to the World A through D when they are unlocked, so in the adult version if you want to change character you only can if you start over from world 1-1, or A-1 if you are already in the harder levels.

nice to know they existed even if they were later removed
I played the Switch version and I've seen the handprints, they only appear if you turn off Cap's headlight and wait for about 5 minutes. (On your footage I see that you didn't turn off the light.) The noodle ghost I've also seen, but the one on the tracks I didn't, or maybe I did, but it's so hard to see that I may have overlooked it.
I plan on playing the Switch version somewhat soon. I hope I'll think of this video and let you know.
I have the wii u and switch version and I definitely remember the hand prints from one of them.
Edit: The hand and train ghost both appear in the Switch version.
Probably removed from the 3DS version to save on file size and resources. Or was probably outsourced to a different team and they removed those aspects for various reasons, such as the hands not being recognisable on the 3DS version, eating up ram that could be used elsewhere, etc.
@@ThatOneDudeWhoPostsStuff the would take up barely any file size. The game is about 1/2 a gb and a couple of kb would not impact the game much. I think they probably took them out because of the low resolution but I went back to those levels on the 3ds version and I think that they would have actually been recognizable. Also 1 extra sprite on screen would not impact preformance.
I have the Wii U and 1ds versions. Should I check???
I guess we have a find old 3ds rom of this
Nintendo just made the ghosts more realistc
0:25 we're no strangers to loove

Those gamecube toads are the true terror
Hey swankey have you ever seen the button in Luigi mansion caus I took a pic of it and don’t know if it is a button
Which button?
Sorry I went back to look and it was a mistake it was just wean the fan went invisible wean you use your gameboy horror
What happened to the Swankybox bumpers at the beginning of every video? I miss them, they were fun.
Nintendo probably found the ghost secret and got mad that it was added without consent, so they removed it, or they thought the hands and giant spirit were too scary, As the fleeing one is not that freaky. thats my guess.
