This is what I saw:
"CRUSH"
"KILL"
"DESTROY"
and ummm..
STRESS?
Listening to Pharaoh Monch's new Album I realized something. I think Street Fighter 3's Urien = Organized Konfusion(Stress). I mean Hip Hop was a heavy influence in SF3's production.

NeoGAF itself in its current incarnation is about 8 years old.
Wow. I was willing to accept that the very beginning was simply coincidence, but then I hit 1:30...
I'm not really sure if this belongs in this thread, but I was watching The Amazing World of Gumball (it's a Cartoon Network show, for those who haven't heard of it) and spotted a pretty cool nod to the Shadow of the Colossus. The episode is actually called "The Colossus," so maybe it wasn't just a subtle reference.
Here are some screencaps of the scene in both the game and the show:
I'm still realing from Metapod.
Oh wow, is that why I had déjà vu when I saw Game Grumps beat that guy in their playthrough?!I'm not really sure if this belongs in this thread, but I was watching The Amazing World of Gumball (it's a Cartoon Network show, for those who haven't heard of it) and spotted a pretty cool nod to the Shadow of the Colossus.

I'm only just now remembering that I used to think Metapod looked like a fucked up green bean. Actually I think I caught one in FireRed and named it Peapod.I'm still realing from Metapod.
This is likely correct. The SF team has always been good at putting in references in details.
Look at Ken's Stage:
See if you spot all the cameos.
It's more mind-blowing to me that people ever saw it that way.
found this after some googling:
And in true USSR fashion it flew one unmanned mission then spent the rest of its life grounded until its hangar collapsed and destroyed it.
Not exactly true. The one that was destroyed was unfinished.
The one that flew was bought by the Technik Museum Speyer in Germany and is on permanent display.
Someone at Vinesauce chat said that Kirby Triple (3) Deluxe -> Kirby 3D.
My mind got kinda BTFO.
found this after some googling:
same here.
That doesn't quite work though. It should be Castlevania: DoS, similarly to games like Secret of Mana is abbreviated as SoM, not SM for example.Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow -> Castlevania DS
I think that more of a theory that just fits very well, with curtains and props and stuff. Would be awesome if Miyamoto was confirming it though.
Does anybody know if something happens if you finish Mario 3 with either a frog or hammer bros. suit? I did it once with a Tanooki suit but cant remember if anything happened, I think you just turn into Super Mario once you enter the room the princess is held captive.
Edit: should have googled it beforehand: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qrvL6UZwzg

Nothing special happens though its cool you can kill Bowser with 4 hammers
Yeah, Using the DS as subtitle was pretty popular during the first years of the console, some examples:
Advance Wars: Dual Strike
Bleach: Dark Souls
Lunar: Dragon Song
Mr. Driller: Drill Spirits
Tenchu: Dark Secret
Bubble Bobble: Double Shot
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Dig Dug: Digging Strike
Fullmetal Alchemist: Dual Sympathy
Guilty Gear Dust Strikers
Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword
Peggle Dual Shot
Resident Evil: Deadly Silence
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor
No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle
whoa man
Yep. You just lose your suit. When I was a kid I had a Game Genie and the code that let you keep the suits forever would cause the game to lock up and get stuck in a pause loop when you entered the final door. (And it mentioned this in the code book too.) At the time I had no idea why. Now I know it's because the game is trying to "damage" you through scripting in order to let you in but since the code is "Mario turns into Hammer Mario when damaged" the game gets stuck in a logic loop.I think that more of a theory that just fits very well, with curtains and props and stuff. Would be awesome if Miyamoto was confirming it though.

Nah. That's just the King's ignorance. It's a suit. But since he doesn't understand he assumes it's magic.Uuuuh, at the end of that frog vid, he says mario has been transformed
#13 could be Michelle Heart from that 80s shoot'em-up Wings of Ares (forgot its English name).

It's like if you brought a cave man or some other person from history before technology existed, the first thing they'd think when seeing your cell phone, laptop, TV and car is "MAGIC! YOU'RE A GOD OR THE DEVIL!"
So he offers to help Mario turn back to human. It's all just a little comic relief. For the frog suit he thinks you're transformed. For the hammer suit he asks if you'd mind lending him your suit. I forget if and what he says for the Tanooki suit.
I'm still realing from Metapod.
The metapod one still blows my mind.
This might be common knowledge but, 22 years after its release, I just now realized that the soundtrack to Super Mario Kart wasn't composed by Koji Kondo.
I've actually had that thought haha. It all makes sense now.Yup. Soya Oka, composer of Pilotwings and Sim City. Quite unlike Koji Kondo's style if you ask me.

Drag-On Dragoon 3 (Drakegard 3) has the following world map:
They seem to be using the Hebrew-like alphabet that these same producers also used in Nier, and the names of the locations, when read in that font, match the names used in the Japanese game.
But on the compass at the bottom, the letter shin (S in the font they used in Nier) is at the top, and the letter nun (N) is at the bottom.
Why would they reverse south and north like that?
Perhaps it's because if the map were flipped upside-down, people would notice that.it's a map of Europe
Only in Soulcalibur and Soulcalibur II though.As well as

No More Heroes: Desperate Struggle was an awesome troll.Haha, I remember all of those rumours that were obviously fake came out many of them employed the DS acronym. Devil May Cry: Dance of Sparda was the one that stood out the most. Still laughing at that. Surprised netiher DMC PSP or DS ever came to fruition, really.
