L is Real 2401, or as some people call it Eternal Star, is one of Super Mario 64's greatest gaming mysteries. No - I take that back. It's one of the biggest, if not thee biggest gaming conundrum for the Nintendo 64. Unlocking Luigi is Super Mario 64 was at the top of everyone's lists once the rumors started circulating around. Thousands gathered in front of the courtyard's star statue to decipher the hidden message... But no one ever did. But given new recent findings... Is L is Real 2401 solved? Let's take a look back at this iconic gaming mystery over two decades later to find out.

Imagine being the texture artist who just scribbled some shit onto a marble plaque and seeing all this happen
"Alright, Well, here you go. My 240x80 plaque for the star statue"
"Woah woah? Where did you get those 0s? There must've been a miscommunication"
Yeah
imagine being famous for anything on any level

Tries to write “eternal star” in 240p
Everyone:
"What??? You actually stood in front of the statue for 24 hours and 1 minute?"
"Yes."
Lol
Base Bass Forte I will be waiting on it I’m subscribing because you play melee lol
I remember that Machinima.
Only for that long?
Could it be that jan 24th has some significance to the game. Or possibly to one of the programmers?
I want that "L is Real" texture on my gravestone when I die
Your parents: What does that say?
Your friend: L Is Real 2401.
Did this guy get eternal star written on his tombstone? What an egotist
Does your name start with l?
Or the guy who made the texture's grave.
It better be just as pixelated
he was found today. 24 years and 1 month after the games release.
A comment above you 1 year ago said something about 24 hours and 1 minute
Shut up
@@evankaner8985 why? There's no reason for you to be mad at him
24 years and 1 month 2401.
@JustChizzin No, he wasn't unlocked. They just found Luigi's audio files and character model in the game's source code.
Around 15 years ago, took a stab at the theory of "L is Real 2401" that went more into context of the game. After a little "artistic rendition" of the text, I came to the conclusion that it was likely the grave (or memorial) of Peach's father (or possibly parents) which was defaced by Bowser OR heavily worn for some reason. The text would have originally read "Toadstool 1981"... which would also provide SOME CONTEXT for the Boo's hiding out there (ghosts would likely hang out around where they died or around other dead entities).
It may not be perfectly accurate, but it would fit reasonably well within the game lore & could potentially be part of the canon with Peach & the castle.
That's just my 0.02 MB on this.
Damn, thats really unique.
I have always wondered if it could possibly be a memorial for Peach's parents!! I mean, "Eternal Star" makes a lot of sense considering it's a star statue, but "Toadstool 1981" certainly isn't far fetched, either.
I like this theory a lot. It makes sense with the whole “eternal Star” thing as well.
Paper mario was released on Feb 5, 2001 so it could have been the release date for paper mario but it was delayed by a day
damn that fits in
The real message goes as follows:
“L, did you know that shinigami love apples?”
Angelo Sellas I get it
Honestly, L is the kind of guy to play n64 games in mid 2019 so it could be real
👏...👏...👏
@@zackweawinzewalmart2019 wonder how he'd even hold the controller honestly.
my fave comment ever
Maybe Luigi was removed in the same update herobrine was removed 🤔
that would mean he,s still out there.... hideing XD
Does Mojang still put
"Removed Herobrine"
After every update message?
Maybe they removed him in the Shindou update
Which update. Every update from 1.6 to 1.10 including the ones that are like 1.6.4
Oh yeah I get it is because Minecraft came out in 2009 and Herobrine made Minecraft famous hahaha a Minecraft joke so funny
Up next: in Super Mario 64 DS: "Waluigi is real"
Lol, my brothers and I always thought the extra door in the character swap room would unlock Princess Peach.
W is real 2401
No in 64 DS is: Y is verosimilar 1200
and in Odyssey is M is false 0000

How does this guy end every single sentence with the exact same pronunciation on the last syllable?
Oh shit. Can't unhear.
Damn it now I can’t unhear! 😭😂
It's ruining it for me. I can't finish a single one of his videos because of it.
Yeah the cadence is triggering one of my migraines.
Took me a long while to notice it. Doesn’t bother me, frankly.
It says in japanese:
Upper text line
Bottom text line
Pablo Romero lool
bottom text
I saw 上 at the beginning of the first line, and now you've mentioned it 下 at the start of the second line. So this is really a placeholder lmao
The 上is really clear, could definitely be.
Last word in the first row seems like katakana stating with コ, maybe コードsomething
My biggest "L is Real" mystery/hoax is and always will be "Mew is under the truck." The best part about THAT particular mystery was the fact that when someone found a LEGITIMATE way to get mew in-game years later, no one believed it. XD
I remember doing that when i were younger. Pretty cool knowing you've glitched the game.
I wasted my time on a couple of "L is real" type rumors myself:
-Play as team Star Wolf in SF64 (instructions were something like "destroy X amount of enemies on Expert mode without you or any of your wingmates dying")
-Fight the secret Gold Weapon in FF7 (something about him showing up on Cactuar Island if you defeat 100 cactuars)
L is real has a meaning as well as 2401 I waited a long time to tell people but here it is. Firstly it's religious the eternal star is god L is the original word used by Jews to refer to as god we know this because Michael translates into he who is like the Creator or god. Now the numbers are the beginning of the first four letters of a person who is mentioned in the book of Revelation as he who will rule the world with an iorn ceptor this ceptor is the ceptor of the pope and he is all so known as the paile skinny ridder and death to educate him and other to his power and position. This person native Americans have a prophecy of they call him the rainbow man, he can prove god is real with who he is and will be the king of the world after Jesus comes here he is a accumulation of all races of mankind and he teaches gays that Jesus cares about them. His name is
Rikki, rich & powerful
Lee, seriene
Taylor, Creator
The secret name of god as a man if it where to happen in modern day times in a multi coulteral community his birthday is the reason for the 2401
It's
01/24-1987
Alpha-omega
He is the reincarnation of Lord rama a Hindu god who to honor a contract to prevent a war his step mother created he became homeless for fifteen years and he and since we all must have our lives repeat themselves and hes been in exile agine for fourteen years and then Jesus will show and he will once agine be king! He is the link between you all and Jesus! He wants his fuckin money and a Nintendo switch god damnit! WEED! LOTS OF FUCKING WEED!
Yeah, actually finding how to catch mew was really satisfying
@Base Bass Forte nope, theres like 7 ways to get mew already.
Some of them are ez, some of them request corrupting the game way too much.
Mario: Wait, L has-a always been-a real?
Luigi: It-a always has-a been.
*Cocks gun*
you said that wrong. Mario shouldn't say has always been he should say is.
For a second I thought you said *COCK Gun*
@@_cfmca yes mario shoots his cock gun all-a time
“It doesn’t mean anything. But what if it does?”
That’s it that’s the video
L IS REAL

My god L is real
Being a 90's kid gamer had it's draw backs with no internet and the likes...but at the end of the day, it will always be the golden age of gaming to me personally 😊
These days is fortnite
well I just looked at the super mario 64 courtyard textures with the topaz ai gigapixel software and the texture doesn't look anything like the L is real meme
Wus up
This is especially true for Pokemon games back in the day. So many hoaxes surrounding event legendaries/items
DGR agreed. I spent countless hours as a kid trying to solve these kinds of mysteries that I heard from other kids at school.
Wow... what a trip down memory lane...
Well duh, you need to wait for the year 2401 to unlock luigi
L is real in 2004
Wasn’t it obvious?
luigi was never added to the final game of super Mario 64, he was only marked by the star statue, he is never gonna be playable in the original game, you can only have some luigi models wich could be like him but dont say that xd
You mean the year 'star'? If you take even a moment to read it and not just take the words of another, it says clear as day "Eternal Star"
@@ImPersonNation After further research
You are partially right
It actually says both
L is real 2401
And below that
Eternal Star
In the world of Mario 64, Luigi doesn't even exist as a concept
Even Santa Claus exists, but not Luigi.
DS
Yoshi is there so I'm fine
Super mario 64 ds would like to know your location
-Dad, 2019
So uh it turns out L is indeed real. Files for his model and texture were found in a recently leaked source code
I just want to bring up real quick that in the recent Super Mario 64 source code leak, Luigi has been found in the files.
It’s been 24 years and 1 month between the release Mario 64, and the source code leak.
2401.
That is such a funny coincidence I gotta say.
or was it? *x-files theme plays*
That ain’t a coincidence. Someone waited a long time for this moment. To bring our Little, Green Friend into SM64.
They did it on purpose
In Odyssey, they should've named the "totally classic" mission to "L is real"
Considering it says eternal star and it is obviously a statue of a star that wouldn't make any sense.
Only an idiot would look at the statue of a star and read the inscription on it as L is real and a number.
Sigils, ETHEC. There is a space in between what should be E and T as well as E and R, considering what should be the word Star and the rest of Eternal don’t have spaces like that, that must mean it doesn’t say Eternal Star (it might involve the word Star) the first line of the plaque has 4 words, not 2.
@@SSDARKPIT You're an idiot. It says eternal, and if you say otherwise, you're wrong.
@@RunicSigils only an idiot would get so triggered about this, its just blured text and no one really knows what it says
an idiot would think it's either L is real 2401 or the eternal star.
and not both.

Search 'foot lettuce' on UA-cam. He sounds just like that imo lol.
Natsu Dragneel i think this is a legit accent-type thing - similar to how valley girl and vocal fry originated from regional inflections, ending with a down pitch is just another version. it’s also weirdly common amongst yt commentators so it could be an end product of reading every line like its own entity vs how normal speech tends to flow more naturally. but idk ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@sorou Is it the new transatlantic accent? :D Is this a cabal of media strategists seeking to unify and legitimize youtube as its own broadcast culture? Or ... is it a bunch of goobers who read like it's a fifth grade book report at the head of class?
@@smuckola I honestly think it's the latter.

Sorry sir but what does eternal star mean unless its me idk what it is. And l is real wtf man that makes zero sense.
L IS REAL
yes it is
It’s actually real. 24 years, and 1 month after release. Someone purposely waited for this.
@@CaptainCoolzCT- yes
@@CaptainCoolzCT- yup
I remember one time a friend at school said “if you collect 64 coins then restart the whole game. Stand in front of the star for 24 hours you will get luigi” I tried it and was so pissed because I had to leave the game on for 24 hours without being able to play anything else,
TL;DR
Theres no 100% true answer and its probably just some filler text that means nothing.
My Secret Account It’s filler, an extra texture on something that would make sense to have words that no one wanted to make real words for. It doesn’t mean anything except maybe “I’m useless space filler”
Its Japanese. Says top text and bottom text. This was cleared up years ago.
it was used as a joke
Mario knows you-a coo-coo crazy. It says "Eternal Star: In Memory Of Arigi"
It could have been the planned release date of Paper mario which was released in North america on Feb 5, 2001. it was probably delayed and thats why it could have been a day off
I read it as "Eternal Star" and saw it as a foreshadow to the giant star you collect after defeating the final boss.
That makes a lot of sense
That’s a great way of seeing it
I don't think it implies the final star, but yes, it is Eternal Star.
Or maybe, just maybe... it could be referring to the GIANT STAR STATUE that it's on.
it could be referencing to the Eternal Star from Mario Party 1!
I find it funny that in Mario 64 DS the entrance to Big Boo's Haunt where you unlock Luigi is in that courtyard
A subtle nod to the original "L is real" mystery? I think so honestly.
Yeah but also because luigis mansion was released so they put luigi here to make a reference
Yeah, but 64 DS also had the whole Walugi mystery

Assuming the plaque does have English text on it, knowing which font was used would be helpful.
I'm pretty sure it's just the regular text font in 64? But the quality on the sign is so horrible that it's hard to tell. At 4:32 A lot of the ''letters'' in L is for real start to look different, for example, the L in real starts to look more like an apostrophe. The L at the beginning also begins to look like the perpendicular sign.
@@memesarekeem It says Eternal Star.
@@ImPersonNation Is that actually what it says?
@@memesarekeem yep
@@hansolo4923 Who would have known. It totally looks like L is for real.
Since I'm here early,
I'd like to point out a tidbit about the plaque I've always loved since reading it over a decade back.
"When the great one's remains see red, a new path will be revealed"
The appearance of the sign in Dodongo's Cavern, with a bit of imagination, can actually match a potential meaning with Mario 64's version. The connection comes from the Big Boo in the courtyard and the giant dead Dodongo in Dodongo's cavern. To progress from either, you must defeat the Big Boo and bomb the Dodongo skull's eyes respectively. Obviously, the exceptionally large dead creature remains (with some in-tact spirit) is obvious, but the real kicker to me is the "sees red" connection. When bombs explode in the Dodongo skull's eyes, it shows red as a symbol that something was activated. When the Big Boo in the courtyard sees Mario, the player gets a glimpse of a unique object that turns out to be a level entrance as the Boo tries to hid by turning invisible. Thus, the quote I put at the beginning of the comment to clickbait people. Iunno, I thought it was neat as a kid.
Also some people interpret the second line as "In Paper M" and suggest that the 2 4 0 1/2 0 1 4 are original release dates for Mario Story/Paper Mario, but that theory probably has a ton of holes.
Anyway, good video as usual, even if it was only a really light romp.
Interesting.
Eternal Star. Not any of this L is real nonsense.
@@ImPersonNation ITS A THEORY THEY MADE AS A KID, STOP GOING AROUND COMMENTS SAYING ITS ETERNAL STAR AND INSULTING PEOPLE MY GOD
Another thing, why was Peach’s painting on the front of the castle not a secret level accessible by using the canon after getting 120 stars?
That was Peach’s way of friend zoning Mario real hard. 🤣
That would have been so cool.
Presumably its because it is where she was actually sealed. I guess similar to the Sages in ALBW.
That would have been awesome! You could have had to fly or blast up there and, true to classic Mario form, rescue the princess and bring her out of the dungeon. Nice!
I think it's suppose to be painted glass
Uhh you didn't actually mention any new evidence to solving the mystery like you said in the description...
N The evidence is that L is real was some bullshit rumor some playground children made up and it spread like wildfire. The text is actually placeholder Japanese. It reads something along the lines of ‘Upper text, bottom text’.

U should do another one about waluigi and SM64DS
Step 18 yeah
I don't think that was ever a rumor that a sizeable amount of people believed in or even knew about. At that point in time, people had started disassembling games as soon as they came out.
Eddie when I was much younger I was curious about it, and I tried some pretty elaborate things to unlock Waluigi. Maybe I’ve distorted this memory but I vaguely recall seeing someone with the game that had Waluigi and peach unlocked far before I played the game myself. Maybe these things are possible through hacking, but I know first hand that it’s impossible to achieve that through standard game play. I’ve basically done everything short of game breaking or glitches with SM64DS, so I don’t really play it anymore.

Luigi is in the source code's files. They were recently dumped today, meaning that, yes, L is real (2401.) The statue does say "Eternal Star" from my guess, and is nothing related to the myth. People are piecing him together as I type.
Pretty sure it said “Make Mushroom Kingdom Great Again”
its been sovled, Luigi is real

I was playing once I knew about this theory at the time, i was 8. I was going to the statue. I tried to read the message but I then I turned around and I swear I saw something that was maybe related to Luigi. It was an extra shadow, there was actually no Boos around do it couldn't have been them. I screamed and showed my younger cousin. Then he saw it too. That's what we saw and we are still talking about it.
everytime i look at the "L is Real" statue, i always read it as "L fmf reel"

Luigi may not be playable. But L Lawliet or Hidekki Ryuzaki Ryugua might. Or maybe Link. or maybe we'll have to wait to the year 2401.

Another mystery is Waluigi in the Super Mario 64 remake on the DS. You can play as Mario, Yoshi, Luigi, and Wario. In the minigame room, you can see different colors on the floor resembling the characters and the purple color was added there. Red for Mario, Yellow for Wario, Green for Luigi/Yoshi. And Purple?! Waluigi obviously! Yet he was never in the game! I used to try everything thinking he can somehow secretly be unlocked. Gotten all stars, searched the castle+outside for hours, etc. Nothing. Not to mention the mysterious ghost door in the same room as the character selection! I used to try getting in constantly. Thought "Oh maybe this is how you unlock Waluigi?" or maybe through Luigi's casino minigames?! I tried everything lol
Since the message is on a star statue, and some people read it as “eternal star” I feel like it was supposed to say that, but people got confused when the “e” in eternal was too far away from the rest of the word. The Nintendo employee that answered the question might have been lying in some way or another to keep people playing the game and trying things to unlock Luigi, but what do I know?
24 years and 1 month later, us: my goodness what an idea why didn’t I ever think of that?
I didn’t have to worry about is L real cuz I played Mario 64 DS lmao
But what about that giant rumor with Waluigi and the Purple Prizes?
My experience is I walked up to the star statue and when I clicked RB + LB 10 times really quick you won’t believe what happened 😱😱😱🍆
Absolutely nothing
That's why luigi does not exist
He's doing absolutely nothing to get in.
HE IS REAL
I have a theory about it.
L Is Real 2401
If you rearrange 2401...you get 2014. What was important about 2014? Why...it was the Year Of Luigi.
I have no idea why people haven't thought of that! Its so obvious! 2401 is 2014! The year of Luigi!
no no it's year 2401...
if you start the game in that year
Luigi will be added to the game automatically
I remember this. As a little kid, I didnt think it had any significance. I just thought it was a cool little courtyard with some Boo's in it. I miss those early days of gaming
Anyone remember the old video about this star that was just a scary ass jump scare
I need to see this
Personally, I was obsessed with waluigi in super Mario 64 DS
I'd still like an explanation for why that black square hole on the castle in the cover was there. Even if it was just cut content, what did it do? Where did it lead?
GASP!!! A CLUE
(Yeah, I thought so too)
The plaque actually says Eternal Star referring to the star statue.
Damn, are you having the same feed as mine or what??
No, it's a referrence to the final stage of Mario Party 1
This and the running man were the two biggest mysteries for me when I was a kid.
L is real
After 24 years, we can now celebrate
And one month.
WAIT HOLY SHI-
