    On July 29th, 1995, a Super Mario 64 build was constructed that forever shook the internet. From a ghostly Wario apparition to strange cases of personalized copies of the game, this precursor Super Mario 64 version was full of many different mysteries. Many theories arose surrounding this haunted occurrence and today we'll be doing a deep dive into to the bottom of the Mario 64 mystery iceberg.

      Actually Wario doesn't give a shit about Waluigi, and they aren't even brothers. Waluigi was wanting to call himself Luigi's rival so he changed his name and attached himself to someone comparable to Mario. (Waluigi's real name is Lesley btw)

    4:03 I'll tell you which came first. Mario in Real Time (MIRT) was a system Nintendo used at trade shows to allow Mario, in CGI puppet form, to interact with audiences. This is the Mario job Charles Martinet was originally hired for. Martinet would be hidden somewhere nearby and talk to audiences via microphone as his physical performance was partially captured via simplified mocap and rendered to a 3D Mario head. MIRT is the basis for both the talking Mario head seen in Mario Teaches Typing 2 and the Wario head from the E3 1996 presentation.

    Most kids' games are incredibly surreal - nothing works as it should in the real world.
    I think this is part of the reason these types of horror stories are so compelling. To our young minds, who haven't yet fully understood the internal logic of video games, it feels like anything might happen within them, including the terrifyingly grotesque. These stories revive that scary but exciting possibility.

    There's a timeline of the floating heads actually. All rely on the Silicon Graphics 420VGX.
    SCES 1992 - a 3D Floating Mario head is shown off to show off the real time rendering of the SGI 420VGX workstation.
    1992-1994 ish - Nintendo Power Laserdiscs had cutouts with the floating 3D mario head (again on the 420VGX) and he could morph into a Super Scope or a SNES Mouse
    E3 1996 - The Wario head is shown off at E3 as a bridge/emcee for the Nintendo 64 demonstration. I can't remember if this demonstration used the SGI 420VGX or a later version of SGI workstations (like the Onyx).
    1997 - Mario Teaches Typing 2

    There is something really nostalgic about this whole trend honestly.
    As a kid I did have this small sense of unease towards Mario 64, probably between being scared of the piano, the chain chomp and the eel the fact that the castle and the levels felt so huge it always felt like there was something in the game out to get me.
    Obviously, these fears pretty much went away entirely when I discovered emulation and toadstool 64, being able to literally see and modify everything in the game shined a light on all those dark corners.
    So even though it's a bit silly and Creepypasta'esque, it is fun to indulge this iceberg and imagine that maybe there were depths to this game I still don't understand.
    Maybe my copy was personalised

    here's my theory: you need to think about this not as the cartridge behaving like a mind, but your mind behaving like a cartridge. when you play a game as a child, your brain is still developing. you are not 100% immersed in the game, because you are still subconsciously taking in the environment around you and processing the rest of your life in the back of your mind. you begin to associate a certain level with the stress of an upcoming test, you smell dinner cooking in the next room, and your mind creates a context that you associate with the game. when you play a friends copy of the game, you are often in an entirely different context, and your brain behaves like a tilted cartridge. the "pins" that your brain needs to be there to properly process the game just aren't lining up, and because memory needs context, and due to the brains built-in "error correction" your memories of the game become partially fabricated to make up for the missing context. this leads to the game becoming unfamiliar even though nothing within the game has changed.

Since player inputs ARE obviously processed, and the game responds to those processes, just adding some unusual, obscure changes to activate on specific obscure action cues wouldn't need much fancy trickery, other than making sure the combined code for the game itself, and the individual response commands, can fit on the cartridge.

I'm honestly surprised nobody has done this.
    Sametime, you would be destroying physical classic games, maybe get some old cartridges for games nobody cares about like sports games and Super Man 64, flash a hacked ROM onto and then rip off the old label and then put a replica label that's been made to look aged and beat up of the game ROM that's in it.
    Granted, these days people that reported it online would soon give the cartridges to someone that had the know how to dig into them so it wouldn't be mysterious and it would be clear that nothing super natural was going on but some creepypastas just stay within the realm of hacking with no supernatural elements (Pokemon Creepy Black for example) so it would still be interesting.

    I actually experienced the Wario Apparition, or at least, something similar, fairly recently.
    My save data for SM64 was damaged due to the game crashing during a save. That was strange, since saves are incredibly fast. I continued playing the game, anyway. Mario's head on the title screen wouldn't go back to its original state when I was done editing. This caused some creepy Mario faces to be made. I'm not that scared of stuff like that, only things that are unexpected, so I laughed and pressed start. I selected one of the save files, and started playing. Mario was in the ground, flashing from red to green. I was a little scared from it, since I was used to Mario standing up. Only made me slightly jump. Feeling fearless, I went into the castle to get some stars. First up was Bob-omb Battlefield. I had no idea if controls were effected by the corruption, so I did some jumping. The iconic yah played, and when I jumped again, the iconic woo-hoo played. Everything was normal, until my 3rd jump. Mario said a creepy ya-ha, and then said boing. He flied off incredibly fast, reaching a parallel universe. I'm an expert on SM64, so I knew what was going on. But then, King Bob-omb appeared. But this time, he was changing size by the frame. He also lacked a moustache, and threw himself. I said to myself, "I really should have deleted the save file." and then, as if it heard me, even though I had no microphone, (I never got into Hey, You, Pikachu! because my friend said it didn't work right when he rented it, and since I had a computer, I saw reviews of it and knew he wasn't alone) the game flashed the words PIRACY DETECTED and went to the delete save file screen. Why would an anti piracy screen show up? I bought this game legally, and would never pirate this game. That didn't make sense, so I looked at the screen, and something happened. The screen was messed up. This time, the Mario's on the screen were yellow. It kept saying "fun" in the voice of Wario, so it was like a Nintendo Spaceworld where Wario showed off a bunch of fun stuff, saying the stuff that happened before was terrible, and to focus on what was to come next. This legitimately scared me, so I went to shut off my N64. But it didn't work. I kept playing, despite the spook. I went to my save file, and spawned in Bowser and the Fire Sea. Mario was in the floor, and was moving automatically. A Blaarg appeared and Mario died. Then, I heard Wario. "Ah, this is terrible!" He said. I don't remember the rest of what he said, (I didn't really hear him that well, as the volume changed a lot, without my control. But I heard the last thing he had to say; "You want fun? Wario show you fun!" I then saw him appear. He was a flat 2d texture, with random white pixels on the outline, similar to the Mario near the health icon, except facing forward, and being Wario. He moved forward. I ran the opposite direction, and long jumped. I was too slow. Wario killed me. (In the game. Obviously.) I heard Mario say "game over!" and a text box appeared. It said "Wow. You were so good at this game when I saw you playing. You couldn't even outrun a head, this time around! How is this possible? Every copy of Mario 64 is personalised. The game changes difficulty based off of your skill in the first level, and you nailed it! Well, not the first star. That star corrupted. But most of the other stars were amazing! You tricked us. Now, Wario will show you fun! Ha ha!" I took the cartridge out and hid it under the couch. But the game still played. Wario replaced the Mario head on the screen. So I put in Mario Kart 64 to get it to stop, and maybe play a little. When I got to character selection, Wario was all of the options, rather than the Mario, Luigi, Peach, etc options. I then remembered about Stop 'n' Swop, but thought it was crazy, since I had an N64 model with only 1/30 of the time it was possible. Plus, I'm certain a Nintendo made game wouldnt use a glitch in the system, unlike rare. So Wario was definitely behind this. I turned the tv off and went to bed. Of course, I wouldn't sleep after that, so I played cookie clicker for a few hours.

      Hmmm. I think what happened was that you did buy a pirated copy, but never knew. If you bought it at the store, there must have been a bad apple employee who purposely sold you a pirated copy, thinking it was a joke. Not everyone in the world is good. And if you ordered the game online, say, ebay, have you checked the details of the copy? (I'm only saying it's ebay because I doubt Amazon still sells N64 cartridges) It may have not had an official Nintendo seal.
      That's what I think, at least. It could be a pirated copy lurking in plain sight. Could have contained the Anti-piracy screen virus, which would infect your entire system and cause an anti-piracy protocol, even if you didn't have a pirated copy. I don't think it's something otherworldly like dumb fan theories suggest. The best you can do now is report the copy and whichever store or website sold it to you to the police. I wish the best of luck to you.

    I been seeing these “Every Copy of Super Mario 64 is Personalized” videos/threads almost everywhere (including the SM64 iceberg) and never understanding what the hell people mean’t by this. I couldn’t tell if this was just a creepypasta (given how people are now uploading “supposed” recorded game footages from around the time SM64 was released (either through that retro VCR filter or w/e) or if this was a legit conspiracy. I’m a sucker for urban video game myths/rumors or things that are just now being unearthed from a 20+ year old game (whether it be an weird, unexplained easter egg or something found in the game’s code after all this time.) Glad to finally get a explanation of this whole thing and even going the extra step to a “what if possibly” route! Keep up the great work as always, love these videos!

    I think it’s possible that the flashing process isn’t always perfect and this can yield incorrect data flashed onto certain cartridges. The probability of it seems very, very low, but it’s certainly possible, from a hardware perspective.
