I discovered that like some movies, if you wait after the credits are done in the SNES version of DKC2, you'll see something special:

So that's how the Music Test and Cheat Mode were discovered!

After this, the game resets itself.

Secret of Evermore takes that to the extreme. You get a hidden message about an hour or so after the ending. After getting other hidden messages before that (I think one after 5 minutes and one after 15 or so).

Similarly, waiting for 64 loops of the Results music in MK64 causes a secret section of the theme to play.

Although when listening to Mario Kart 64 Race Tracks (the official OST), I believe you only need to wait for 2 loops for the hidden music.

Also, pretty much EVERY instance of Totaka's song.

Don't forget the bronies.

Huh, I wish I could play reelism but it FPS-lags like hell for some reason. :/

You can bind the option to disable smoke effects (and the rain in the Castlevania map) to a key. Have you tried that?

EDIT: Also, certain maps can be very laggy, especially the large open area ones (the island city map especially) and ones with excessive detail (the bizzare dark gothic map).

I had a little fun in gmod... too much fun in fact.

I swear, someone already posted that first screenshot here already.


Anyway, I think German is the 3rd best language. (With English in 2nd, and Yellow Devil language in 1st. Bumo.)

[*Alice]

German is a nice language in some ways. But many translations (especially SNES/PS1-era) just make my brain hurt. Especially the ones of Final Fantasy VII, Secret of Mana and Secret of Evermore (apparently Lufia II, Terranigma and the SNES version of Link to the Past suffered a similar fate). Seriously, never play those games in German, no matter what.
For example:
FFVII:  Yuffie:"It's all in there, read it sorgfältig durch und unterschreibe es dann"
Mid-sentence language switching for the win.

Other things that made me rage in german translations I played (but never finished):
- Inserting the musician "Heino" and a reference to a bad german TV show into Secret of Mana for no reason.
- Obsessive usage of the incredibly stupid word "Holerö" in so many SNES games
- Changing the gender of the sprite character in Secret of Mana
- Adding inappropiate jokes to Secret of Evermore
- Mistranslating the names of many locations in many games (iirc also in DKC2)

Good thing Chrono Trigger never got tainted like that.

That was here i was in Techno Hill Zone Act 1 and glided to platform to platform over the Slime Pool. (NOTE: The slime water is deadly so don't touch it.

That was here i got the second Emerald in Special Stage 2

So now you know how the stage looks like and what i look like.

Must dig this thread out of the pile!

Boredom + Old version of Rockman 8 FC = this.

[-FiniteZero-]

Hot damn, I love this game so much.
Yes, this is a German translation.

[*Alice]

Ok, I have NO IDEA why this is.

Basically I was looking for mediocre or worse SNES shooting games, preferably horizontal ones because those can be really really funny.
This is "Spriggan Powered" by Naxat.
Don't those mechas look a lot like X and Zero?
BTW, that game is crap but actually has GRAZING like Touhou or Shikigami no Shiro II.
Grazing in an SNES shooter with mechas. IT MAKES NO SENSE. Yet your hitbox is still large.
The graphics however are incredible.

Look at the intro. They are X and Zero. (Video not recorded by me)

Mario Party 2 Netplay Shenanigans
Starring:
Michael4797 as Peach
Super Raveman as Wario
Hani Safi (Michael's friend) as Mario

We started out with Super Smash Bros but lag bogged that down so we settled for a nice game of Mario Farty Party 2
I have nothing but this cropped PrtScr of us doing things, don't mind me
Also we're still not done, we had to do things so we saved the game and we'll finish it eventually
