You can warp in Super mario bros. 2, seriously.

I didn't learn about it until last year when I watched someone do it, blew my mind.

As my favorite 3D Mario title, I've played Super Mario Sunshine at least a dozen times by now.

Just recently I was playing it and I was on the level where you clean Eely Mouth's teeth. I've always noticed that it has four eyes, but I just now noticed that one set of eyes has girly eyelashes while the other has a manly brow. Apparently Eely is some sort of freakish hermaphrodite.

-in SM64, you can take a Bob-Omb in Bob-Omb Battlefield (and I think the small crate at the start as well) and chuck it at the Chain Chomp to stun it for a brief period
-the golf courses in Wii Sports are the first nine courses from the original NES game Golf
-the Castlevania song "Bloody Tears" gets its name from the arcade title Haunted Castle, where the stage it's played in has a statue of a face with tears of blood rolling down its face

I had no idea that Ice Cap Zone's music was made after an unreleased song by The Jetzons.

How to actually pull off some fighting game moves... I remember it like it was yesterday...

"What do you mean I can't win by randomly pushing buttons?! That's the only way magic happens!!!"

clearing this part of carnival night zone act 2 in sonic 3
if you're too young to remember this, imagine the water temple in ocarina of time but even less apparent due to poor level design

god dammit literally 2 years of my childhood (i got this game in third grade) was wasted switching on my console, getting to that point, jumping on that cylinder (as seen in photo) and getting really annoyed as there was no way to pass it. even with a lightning shield, i couldnt jump high enough to make the damned thing move enough. even using P2's controller as tails to fly me up and then i jump off, STILL DIDN'T WORK ughhh

apparently, 2 years later (from a friend in fifth grade) i found out you had to push up and down methodically on the dpad to make the cylinder move and the momentum allows you to access another area

i then cleared ice cap zone and launch base zone in like half an hour because compared to that angerfest the rest of the game was easy.

ive actually got some residual anger from it riling up in me now oh my GOD this was SO FRUSTRATING

I didn't know about that until much later myself...my sister and I used to play together; with me often being Tails, so while she stood on the side, I used Tails to jump up and down to get it moving just enough so she could spindash under it. It was so satisfying to finally get down there after like a half hour+ of attempts.

I didn't know until about a year or so ago that you could use the Magic Hammer to damage the Helmasaur King's mask. I always used bombs.

I didn't know you could use certain weapons as items to get free spell effects in Final Fantasy 2(4) until I had internet access.

That's about twenty years for the former and about ten years for the latter.

I didn't know in SSBB how to do that glitch move --
you dash and right after do a up smash.
if done correctly, you sliiiiiiide.I did it with Kirby too!

Are you referring to Snake's tumble -> hit confirm -> cancel to usmash grenade?

i found out about that the hard way two months after brawl came out and tourneytards handed my ass to me with metaknight and snake )':


RE: Things About Games You've Never Found Out About Until Later - AuraLancer - 11-27-2013

I think he means the dashing uncharged USmash you can do by using the Cstick.

i think it was called the DACUS?


RE: Things About Games You've Never Found Out About Until Later - Koh - 11-29-2013

So there's a glitch on a Link to the Past I noticed, but never thought to abuse to get items mega early in the game.

There is a glitch in Super Smash Bros Melee where you create a turnip death ball.

I never knew you could skip worlds in Super Mario 3D Land...but apparently you can through secret passages.

Also there's an Zelda tune that plays in one of the levels.
