      We do know he was in the game prior to the Gigaleak cause there was old Japanese strategy guides interviewing the devs and Miyamoto and they said they had a multiplayer event where you got to play with luigi but was cut due to the N64 not having two controllers when you got it

      It was obvious that Luigi wouldn't be in the final release. He was on a demo video with him running across a checkerboard map. From people seeing that they probably knew that he got removed really early in development

    It's crazy that people back then were just playing as Luigi in a 2-player mode at demo kiosks and it was never known until now. It makes me wonder how many other things like this could come from Japan and we don't know about because of the language barrier. Like, were people in Japan well aware of this while the rest of the world considered Luigi an unseen myth?

    • @matty6598
      @matty6598 11 месяцев назад +24

      They weren't. If you actually look at the video it's just a demo of the game that's showing till you press something. People weren't playing as Luigi on demo kiosks.

    Can you imagine what kind of stuff we would’ve gotten back in the day if the n64 games were made on CDs instead of cartridges? Luigi and others in SM64, more dungeons in OOT, etc.

    • @taimunozhan
      @taimunozhan 11 месяцев назад +16

      The memory issue here is about the internal memory available for the N64 processor (the RAM), not storage space within the cartridge. A standard Nintendo 64 with games on CDs would likely still have had the same issue.
      Maybe the memory pack would have helped though. Also, I _think_ the actual N64DD (which used magnetic disks, not actual CDs) also added more memory, so it's possible that a Super Mario game for the 64DD would have been able to make Luigi real.

    • @overwatch761
      @overwatch761 11 месяцев назад +4

      Yea. And despite the memory issue, the SM64 Multiplayer hack runs pretty decent and is surprisingly fun and playable on the unoptimised SM64 engine on real hardware.
      We can only imagine how Mario 64 could have been if Nintendo had access to the wizardry and knowledge of Kaze Emmanuar.

    • @Ashley6100
      @Ashley6100 11 месяцев назад +7

      Mostly, I think it would have been worse. Certainly performance-wise. CDs at the time couldn't do too much at once, so you'd be looking at much smaller areas and frequent load times like you'd get from the PS1. I remember reading an interview that discussed how an area like Hyrule Field simply wouldn't have been possible without chopping it up and putting in gated loading zones. Even stuff like the way the music in Banjo Kazooie could dynamically change based on where you were standing, swapping in different instruments on the fly. On a CD it'd have to do a hard cut to a different track instead.

    What I love about this channel is that it tells us all the objective theories and provides us evidence, this is absolutely the right way to make content on very old games. Unlike other channels that try to bullshit you into the artificial videos telling you far fetched theories of how "majoras mask was actually gonna be african vodoo zelda the game with these super weird masks" and they try to wring more and more bullshit out of the best nintendo games to date. But this channel is better than that and I like that.

      I'm pretty sure that's Mario. The head and body look too wide to be Luigi's. Plus, if you look at his shirt, it's red. The green hue on the hat is probably due to color distortion from the old camera (Common occurrence with footage taken back then).

      Well the footage seen on the TV is a B-Roll video tape with lots of other games being showcased and not live gameplay so it probably wouldn't've gotten too much attention. Not to mention if someone were to remember it, everyone would probably just dismiss it as someone lying or misremembering.

      @@Dorito_Djinn That could be a plausible theory for the 90's. But now that we have the modern internet which is essentially international, given you know the language, and Japanese culture is very popular in the west. So, if it was well-known or talked about in Japanese, it likely would've been found years ago.

You'd think at least one person would've fueled the L is Real rumors by saying something along the lines of, "To unlock Luigi, you need to find the checkerboard level.". Not to mention the fact that there is no other footage of this. Maybe it was only that one particular screen that played the video containing Luigi. It just surprised me that such a well-documented event could have something pretty big that slipped right under the radar for so many years.

  • @charajaznao2829

    Imagine being the kid that played as luigi on that demo, going back to your home, months passed and you talked with your friends about the multiplayer mode and playing with Luigi, and even if your classmates dont see it, they know you went and play that demo. So the rumour spread in your school. But you're a bit weird out, somehow, it feels out of place to remove a whole multiplayer mode, and since you dont understand the programing reasons behind that decision, you just feel like it was a mistake from nintendo. Suddenly years passed. You moved on a bit, but in your early years of your highschool you see people discussing about the possibility of Luigi being in the game. You know the true, so you comment your experience, but no one actually believes you for real, even the people that believes luigi exists are still in disbelief of your experience. You know it. You know Luigi is real. Despite this, years passed, part of you moved on even more. You barely remember the whole deal, but.. somewhere, somewhen, somehow you read an article about the gigaleak. And you see it. You see his face. You recognize the model, the colours are correct, many years people created models with different heights and colours, always a bit off. But this is it. You reconcile with your childhood experience again. Someone port it into a mod, you download it and play it. It feels so unreal. A few years later the footage appears, and not only you see Luigi again in that CRT screen, but you see yourself as a child, playing without knowing how much of an adventure you were going to live. You cry a bit in reminisce of your childhood..

    i remember in uruguay in a popular shopping mall to promote the nintendo 64 there was a long line of like an entire floor to play with the new super mario 64 witch had a 4 player divided screen. you could play as mario, luigi the princess and bowser. i guess the idea was at the end of the game to unlock all characters to play in different stages. all where clones of mario (all same abilities) and the princess was twice the size of mario, bowser was smaller to fit doors etc. the gimmick was a player choose a room, then the others would need to follow and enter the same level. it was a co-op way to get all the stars x4 faster since each character could pick up one star before beeing sent back to the castle (your personal screen would go white while waiting for the others to go back to the main castle or just quit the level) it was the same game just with 3 mario clones skinned as different players. i guess it was not all that fun in 4 player mode since it was scrapped. most likely what we got on super mario 64 ds but you just swap characters.
