Have you ever heard any funny gaming myths when you were young?

One was that there were 100 worlds in Super Mario World.  There are only 96.  I remember a middle aged contestant on Jeopardy once, during the brief contestant introductions he mentioned to Alex Trebek that he completed 96 levels in Super Mario World and was hoping to finish all 100.

Funnily enough, if you glitch the game very specifically, you can actually get a save file with 101 exits as opposed to the intended 96 exits. I think there are only 72 actual courses though.
doafan:
At the arcades that I used to visit there was always a rumor that the friend of a friend was able to pick the stone that was part of Sagat's stage at the classic Street Fighter II and use it to attack him, I truly believe that it was real since the guy who told me that lie was the same that told me that an orange ninja can appear at the first Mortal Kombat, years later discover that it was a damn glitch  ;D

The endless amounts of "Unlock Luigi in Super Mario 64" 'cheats' that I admittedly tried once or twice, only to realise they're fake.

...and the Laser Suit in Super Mario World.

I love the L is Real 2401 rumour.

Though I was not that young at the time, I believe these were followed by rumours of unlocking Waluigi in Super Mario 64 DS involving the empty white door from the room where you change characters and/or entering the painting of Peach outside of the castle. Not sure about the details however.

(Hope it is OK to bump, I looked for a rules list but couldn't find one if there is one could somebody link please. Thanks : ) )
