What is the most secret, hidden area in video games?
Is it the Top Secret Area in Super Mario World?
The most secret, hidden areas in video games are the ones nobody know about.
It's a secret
I would think the Chris Houlihan room would be up there, especially since it's not so much a secret to be discovered but an error condition that puts you in that room when there's a bug.
How did I know about that spot as a kid?
I didn't get it from a guide and I don't remember anyone telling me.
Was I curious and accidentally stumbled upon it?

It's something i'd never think to do. The first ghost house, you run to the right until the first gap. Then you run all the way left and fly up and to the left up through the hole in the ceiling. Run all the way to the right, and that's the secret exit.
Mom bought the guide book so that's how we knew.
>>324281842
man, the story of how that room came to be was funny shit
In Super Paper Mario, there's a part where you drop into a stage as Giant 8-bit Mario, who can only move forward. It's either the first or second time I can't remember. Anyway, after you're done trashing through the entire level, if you for whatever reason decide to run back to the beginning through the mayhem left behind, and keep going left beyond the point where you dropped from, you will find a lone sign at the end of the level written in dutch.
What this says, nobody knows. If somebody turns on their game and takes a picture of it though, I have a dutch friend on Facebook I can show it to.
How likely is it that there are yet undiscovered secrets in very popular games, even to this day? I think it's plausible, because of that new sidequest or something that was only just discovered in an old Final Fantasy game a few years ago.
I'd always hoped that Rockstar DID put Bigfoot into a select few discs on ps2 somehow. That he would exist in the data files on those discs, but completely removed for the real run of discs.

Yoshi's island has a secret room in one of the boss castle, where it's full of Little Chan Chomp

I'm also dutch so I could translate it.
>>324283196
Deepest lore.
>>324282989
the real popular ones get datamined to shit. If there are secret areas, they would have been found by now.
>>324281196
>>324282001
>>324282150
My brother and I figured it out ourselves. I'm proud of that. That one course changed the game for us.
>>324282748
>level written in dutch.
>What this says, nobody knows
It's not written in fucking elfish you retard.
>>324283196
WHO
>>324282001
I don't remember how I found it, but I do remember getting it fairly early in the game. Do you even exploration?

Apparently there is something with the Running Man in OoT. The nips figured it out, but we haven't and they won't tell us.

It's a Japanese thing
Not sure what it is, but its funny to them.
>>324283704
it's easy enough to download the japanese ROM and use the code to make your time 00:00 or whatever.
>>324283912
>12
Nice.
>>324281842
But isn't there ALSO a deliberately programmed way to enter the Chris Houlihan room as well? That's what the "run here in X amount of time" is doing, I thought.

I've gotten that method to work a few times, you just reset, start from the sanctuary and dash left/down/right/down/right/up and fall into the hole you had to go into to find your uncle at the beginning of the game.

I sure, you didn't even try to get a 12, but you did
>>324284413
No, from what I understand running to that specific place fast enough is just the easiest way for the bug to happen.
>>324284624
I tried it, but no results. I even used the &safe=off
thinger. Can you at least drop a name?

Don't come with that, google works every time.

What are some recent games with secret areas and easter eggs? last I remember was Kirby Triple Deluxe
>there are people on /v/ who haven't found all the HAL rooms or gotten the 30up bonus at the end-stage minigame
>>324285776
Don't lie lazy cunt, even the thumbnail works

Happy fap bro
The parallel universes in SM64 are pretty good
>>324285959
Shadow Warrior had some secret areas and easter eggs referencing the original game and with powerups and whatnot, and Underrail has secret areas with loot and a couple item/dialogue easter eggs.

Any Mario game that lets you fly will have people flying randomly for the sake of finding stuff.
I loved 3 for that reason, there was so much stuff to find.

That kid that won the contest to get a room in ALttP and it wasn't discovered for years must be up there
>>324286540
It's my pleasure.
My favorite "secret" area is in Antichamber, where they have a long ass wall showing 7 years of prototype screenshots.
For a while, I thought I was the only one that was bored enough to discover the secret captain VA switch event in THPS3.
>>324286660
You know its movie right? You can find the full pack of it on torrents. There's even a sequel.
>>324284710
>this animation style
I don't even know what I like about it but I like it.
>>324282001
i think i knew about it because in super mario bros 3, there was a hidden whistle in the castle. i think i just copied that because the ghost house was a pretty new addition to the series, and found it.
what bothers me is that in gamecenter CX, they didn't know about this or the stage in the forest to gather lives. instead they used some shitty trick that wasted time.

FF 9 had some side quest in the last disk involving some family and you visited them after every major story point
>>324287723
Was that the secret Dev Museum with all the models of the gun and stuff? Yeah that shit was cool
The preview rooms from Arkham Asylum and City, perhaps?
>>324285959
Bloodborne had some fantastic secrets but you don't hear much about it, I guess because everyone found out about them through the internet 0.1 seconds after release.
>take a secret path through a cave and back through the starting area to get around a door you couldn't open and get a letter that you take to an assuming location and if you've beaten the boss you get whisked off to a whole elaborate as fuck but optional location
>talk to a random ass npc that's behind a door that looks the same as any other door for an item, let a particular enemy kill you with this item to get to another optional location with loads of stuff to do and a callback to a previous game
>drop through a random hole in a fence to get a key to another optional location with one shit boss but also another god tier boss and an area with ANOTHER secret in that which allows you to revive a particular npc
>>324288239
That's also an area, yeah. It even has some crude screenshots with paint text over them.
>>324288364
What's really crazy about Bloodborne is that more than like HALF of the bosses are optional.

What was that 1 million prize for finding out a secret in sonic and knuckles?
How about the secret that wasn't quite supposed to be a secret but is because the developers were incompetent?

The key to Upper Cathedral, the key which is hidden in that one area with the respawning old hags and the Amygdala laser blasting the floor. Then the boss of Upper Cathedral is that alien but if you break through a window you didn't know you could break through you can fight Ebrietas.

Thank you, friend.
The best kept secret is the gameplay. It's cleverly hidden behind bullshit controls
>>324289958
zing!
thought it was some kid that one a nintendo power contest. they posted how to get to the room in an issue, so it isn't super-secret
>>324283387
might as well be
>>324286848
>a game about secrets has a bunch of secrets
>>324293901
Banjo Kazooie isn't Mario 64, but there aren't any major problems with the controls
If I ever make a game, I'm going to put at least one "That Kid" tier secret in it, the only clue to its existence being some extremely cryptic hint.

Datamined within a week on Reddit.
>>324298653
nobody who uses reddit can play it
as you start the game it asks 'what sites do you use most?' and it'll have options like 'reddit' 'google' 'yahoo' and if reddit is checked...the computer explodes with no explanation

More of a year ago the dev of Fez said that was still untouched secrets, but not everybody think is true

>>324298884
>the computer explodes
That's some YouTube comments-tier posting, Anon.
>pick another option
>data mine it
>>324298926
The reason Fez isn't very good is that it seems much more interested in having obtuse secrets than getting anything interesting out of the core mechanics of the game
