They used to go into some pretty "computer geek" detail to explain how certain things were found. And, usually that was by some "computer geek" breaking into the game's code and looking for anomalies. <br><br>Vaporman87Jan 23, 2015View

15771Guy beats Super Mario World in under 6 minuteslol. Until he actually made it, I thought he was narrating live and the footage of him was just out of sync with the audio. As for how they come up with it, it's pretty clear it wasn't just somebody messing around, as you could easily imagine led to the discovery of minus world and stuff like that. My guess is that somebody was looking at code of the game's ROM in a hex editor. The video mentions this has never done on a console before, so it must have been first found in an emulator. And this person noticed a memory address register in the first level that was similar, or identical, to a register in the credits. Well, they probably wouldn't "notice" that, more like they were running a comparator on the code to find potential glitch hook points. Once a commonality was found, they started tracing it to a method to trigger. The guy in the video also says he is "writing code" in the game. Super Mario World was revolutionary because all kinds of new things were done in it. The CPU probably has to calculate specific things like enemy placement, and that's affected by what Mario does way more than "place goomba at square 87" like in SMB1. In other words with SMW we left graph paper and entered the butterfly effect. How all that is worked out to trigger the potato chip register is beyond me but I can imagine it. If this isn't a hoax.shakin steakJan 22, 2015View
