Things you never noticed in video games
I really like this game's skybox.
Yup.
All 26 trees are there!
>>343595428
Wait the waterfall leads INTO the the lake!?
>>343595428
Honestly is there any world more immerisve than mario 64s
>that cavern in hazy maze cave takes you down the waterfall
>falling in wing mario over the rainbow plunges you into the pond in front of the castle
This will forever be the greatest achievement in gaming.
>>343595428
What am I supposed to be seeing?
>>343595548
>>343595428
Buh God it's a fetus. But what does it mean
>>343595912
spooky af
>>343595863
Peach's Castle
>>343595765
the inspiration for dark souls world
>>343595863
If you connect the tree's, they look like a gamecube controller
>Mario Kart 64
>you can actually visit this locale on a scaled down size
It baffled me as a kid when I tried to enter the castle.
>>343595912
>that 2nd skybox
fuck why is that so comfy
>>343596135
Not this again. NOT THIS AGAIN!
>>343595428
*raises paw*
So, every map in mario 64 was just an island like this?
>>343595912
>bottom left skybox
I don't know why but it's so spooky
What's out there?
>>343595912
Is there a high res of those? Some of those would make a good wallpaper.
>>343596229
You're expecting high-res textures from an N64 game?
>>343596098
Damn, all this time I thought it was Bowser's castle. I feel like I've been lied to. Thanks for clearing that up anon.
>>343596227
The worst part is you can't even see it unless you go to the top of the stage and specifically look for it.
>>343596190
Yes.
Now get back in the corner.
>>343596229
dude that is the res of those
>>343596227
Underwater muslims
>>343595912
what's middle left?
>>343596616
Robotnik?
>>343596293
No. Just upscaled? I know the N64's native resolution is tiny as fuck. Surely there is someone who knows how do that and make them still look decent?
>>343596587
The first Bowser level.
>>343596587
looks like a cave.
>>343596616
>mfw I cant unsee it
>>343596525
my god, they bomb atlantis
>>343596587
Bowser's first world
>>343596139
>a scaled down size
It's not scaled down at all.
There were just a lot of details cut out of it.
>>343596616
Looks like a dog
What does this mean?
>>343595428
I see TJ "Henry" Yoshi staring back at me
>>343595965
>Don't abort me unca mario, noooo!
>>343596668
FUCK YOU FOR MAKING ME REMEMBER
>>343596690
>upscaled from fucking 350x250
>>343596690
try waifu2x
>>343596135
I can kinda see it, but it's a pretty rough shape
>>343595428
Maybe I'm just autistic but video game levels have always pissed me off, like, how do normal people get there? The whole thing is blocked off from the outside world.
Or in a Mario level, how do the enemies get to the spots they're in? Do they traverse the whole level?
>>343596135
I FUCKING SEE IT
MIND BLOWN
>>343596229
>>343597018
>>343596690
>>343596840
>>343595428
Did it bother anyone else that the front and back of the castle weren't continuous?
>>343597518
Holy shit.
At least try, you dense motherfucker.
Look at >>343597339
His actually takes on the rough shape of the controller.
>>343596840
>>343597554
What about the desert, night forest, and underwater city? Those look the neatest.
>>343596840
Fuck you I tried.
>>343597756
Nice druid, shithead. Now it is unusable.
Is anyone else disturbed by the hollowness of pre 2000 3D games?
>>343598052
It looks like an Unknown
>>343598084
No, you are the only one.
We have never had threads about this very subject before.
L is Real 2140
Here we go with this Mozart shit again.
>>343598084

I'm going into Pannenkoek withdrawal. Need more similar videos
>>343599320
How deep does this rabbit hole go?
>>343596227
It's an actual town in Spain. I forgot the name but it's in Andalusia.
>>343599401
Really makes you think huh.
>>343597443
I always like to picture Eggman running along the same loops and ramps Sonic does, especially the levels where it's his actual base. I mean, he's the one who made it.
>>343599387

>>343599836

Mario has had enough of Bowser's advances
>>343599401
>>343601281
What is this from?
>>343601258
Even with the needlessly huge worlds and yadda yadda, it's absolutely amazing how they are connected. Is there any other game with these kinds of connections and "shortcuts" between levels, besides Metroid Fusion?
Conspiracy abound
>>343595765
Nintendo really knew how to create a world back then. I was always amazed at how you could see other levels in Sunshine and Double Dash. I think they brought that back in MK8 though I never really checked.
>>343601695
Dark Souls
Also, Shovel Knight and Ys:Oath come to mind, even though the connected areas are much closer to each other.
>>343601336
fuck off with this shitty meme already
how can anyone be stupid enough to believe this shit?
>>343601916
In Splatoon you can see certain levels from certain stages
>>343601916
Jak games do a great work at this. You always notice something cool in the horizon, and wonder if it's just decoration. And later in the game, you get to go there, and it's a whole new area
Dishonored had some of this, too
>>343601916
The tracks in MK8 will reference each other by name and through photographs but I don't think you can physically see any tracks from another track.
>>343595912
Is this when we now point out the not even remotely spooky bottom left and go "oooo dude so spooky ahhh" and post scared faces?
>>343601320
>Blaze, Edge, Chopper, and Archer
>ACES
>>343601916
I loved that about Sunshine, but I never looked in Double Dash. I recall being able to see the Daisy Cruiser from Peach Beach, but are there any others?
>>343595428

How do you guys still think that mozart is alive?
Everyone knows hes been dead for years.
Let go of Mozart already, i know its hard but Jesus.
People die but the leave a big impact on the world!
Move on already lest you become the past.
Everyone deserves a future...

It's so deep

>Implying that any video game ever has or ever will come again come within an iota of being comparable to tunneling beneath Ikana Valley and infiltrating the castlethrough an inconspicuous well.
I mourn for those who have never played Majora's Mask. To be alive in this sorry day and age and have missed out on the last great video game to grace mankind.
But I also mourn I will never be able to experience that again. ;_;
>>343602152
I was emulating Luigi's Mansion the other day and I definitely caught that shadow. Though unintentional it's still a fucking creepy oversight on the developers'.
>>343597756
What are you trying to pull here
>>343602393
You can see Luigi's Mansion from Luigi's Circuit
You can see something from Baby's Circuit but I can't remember what.
You can see Mushroom City from Rainbow Road
You can see Mushroom Bridge from Mushroom City and vice versa.
These are off the top of my head I'm sure there's more.
>>343595428
So is it a lake or is the idea that it's supposed to blend into the skybox and you're actually by the coast?
>>343603132
Majoras mask sucks. Its not even as cryptic or weird as OoT.
>>343598370
it's a mystery
>>343602951

Yuna's eyes are the color of the PS2's LEDs.

Thank you Booscaster.
I recognize that ripping those skyboxes must have been difficult.

>>343595428
Where's Yoshi?
>>343604067
Brace yourselves.
In Mario Party's Horror Land banner, you can see a gravestone with the year '1871' on it. Why is it there? An odd placement, don't you think? And why 1871?1871 was the year Mozart died.
>>343602905
Me too. I still watch shitty 2009 YouTube Poops and other fads at the time.
>>343604163
>1871 was the year Mozart died.
>>343603539
>The reason the PS2 can stand up was Sony's attempt of saying fuck you to its fan base
Why did they want to say fuck you?
>>343604163
That tombstone reads 1791, you faggotoid.
>>343601385
I wish I knew.
All the fan archives I've found only have western commercials.
>>343604163
Anon, did you lose your glasses?
>>343604163
Dude, it says "1791" not "1871"
Mozart died in 1791.
>>343604163
Actually it's 1791 but HOLY FUCK
>>343604354

>>343595548
>>343595428
I don't know why, but seeing a game world just floating in the skybox has always put me on edge. Like, the idea that the world is just floating in this vast, infinite expanse unsettles me. I remember glitching outside of the world in some random gamecube game and I fell through the world and into the abyss. Shit was horrifying.
>>343603493

I don't know what Sen is, but apparently it's better than receiving assistance.
>>343605760
How would he do that without revealing himself to the world?
>>343605964
If that's Tetsuo Kong, then which Akira character is Donkey?
>>343605908
So if they need to they can attach chains and keep their head still. You see how strong DK's headbutt is in smash? That's why.
>>343595912
Now i just want someone to rip the skyboxes from this game.
Why can Luigi ZA WARUDO again?
Literally what why when where and how is this thing?
>>343606510
That's actually Luigi's head sewn onto Bowser's great-grandfather's body
>>343596229
I wonder if there are people out there scavenging the original elements they used to make the textures of this game kinda like what the people doing the research on Doom's textures did
>>343606510
It's the "I refuse to acknowledge the RPGs so let's just make some shit up" attack
>>343595912
The one with the red clouds has a King Dedede face and a Bowser face right above it.
>>343606510
Because Japan has a Jojo's fetish and Luigi is basically a completely different person depending on what developer he's under. In HAL's case he's basically goofy Dio.
>>343596139
It's not scaled down, it's pretty much fully intact from the original game, the difference is the water where you can drown and the big opening at the front
>>343605834
Looking through Mario Wiki, here's a full list of easter eggs
>Luigi's Mansion and Dry Dry Desert from Luigi's Circuit
>Daisy's Circuit from Peach Beach and Yoshi's Circuit
>DK Mountain from Baby Park (not listed but what >>343605325 said) and Dino Dino Jungle
>Mushroom City from Mushroom Bridge, Wario Colosseum, and Rainbow Road
>Mushroom Bridge from Mushroom City (also unlisted but I'm hoping my memory is serving correctly)
>>343604691
Am I literally looking at fucking Jojo right now?
>>343606864
Vampire Hunter Mario.
>>343595912
Seeing these always makes me realize that Mario 64 is just a very small part of a much larger, much more vast world. Look at Wet Dry World. We will never explore that place.
What else is out there?
>>343595550
You made me count the trees.
Please don't inflame peoples' autistic tendencies, you might cause a seizure.
>>343606864
The DKC animated series is Nintendo's Jojo
>>343606864
That pic has absolutely jack shit to do with Jojo
>>343607043
I don't know, just color the whip purple and make him less angry and he'd make a passable old Joseph.
>>343604163

Lots of Jojo everywhere.Especially the ZA WARUDO pose and Polnareff's hairstyle, swear to god the Japanese LOVE that shit. Pic very related.
>>343605628
Yeah I thought the same. I now want someone to post the Samus cute manga
