Did anyone hear any myths from friends or anywhere else that were untrue.

I heard this one at school is obviously not true:

Running around the fountain in Boo's courtyard (Super mario 64) over 100 times without falling in and you could play as luigi.

I have plenty. I remember that someone told me that if I crawled around the well in Lost'N Town in Goemon's Great Adventure I would get infinite lives. :P

Some people figure that because if you beat the original metroid in a certain amount of time, you get to see Samus in a bakini at the end. The logical conclusion is that if you beat the game in an ungodly amount of time, you can see her with even less.

In Kingdom Hearts 2. Some guy told me if you hung around the area before Ansem's labs, you could fight Kairi. What a load of crap.

I read online that if you named Link (in Ocarina of Time) as Mario, then you would play as Mario and Ganon would be Bowser. Or name him Ganon and you would play as Ganon.

dolphin was the codename for the gamecube before it was announced, and Bungie was developing Halo for the Mac before Microsoft bought Bungie, not paid them off.

the sega neptune... :(sofaking_bob

That's not a myth, it was Sega's fault for not thinking/making it quick enough before Saturn came out...

there was only ever one reported to exist, and no one knows if it's got guts inside or not... unless you've got some other knowledge about it, like... if you have one, i'd say it's a myth. i've seen pictures of the neptune, but i've seen pictures of bigfoot too.

Using strength on the truck in Pokemon Red and Blue, then Mew would appear. That rumor is *still* everywhere. I think it's been beaten into "THIS ISN'T TRUE!" and other people go "LIES. *RUNS TO TRY IT*"

No the Neptune is not a myth, it was a scrapped console from sega. A few prototypes exsist but you can make one for yourself as shown in several videos on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSTCHG_XFco. Really though saying the Neptune is a myth is like saying the Atari 2700 (Look it up if you don'tknow whatit is)is a myth, it was just never released
