Animal Crossing - Hry
What's scarier about the animal crossing one is that we are closer to the year 2036 than when the game came out now.
...
Yeah that tends to happen when time creeps ever forward.
Should probably start bites the dust now
Oh you mean that we won’t be able to play it now unless we change the time
Get ready to be hit by the moon that has a angry face now
Just for those who want to know there is legit gameplay past level 29 in Tetris it just requires special techniques like hypertapping or rolling to achieve piece movement fast enough to continue gameplay.
Or just slow the simulation speed down :D
@@RealValkor Yeah, but that's not "legit", which is why Tetris tournaments always are played on actual hardware.
@@CyberchaoX oh I didn't know tetris tournaments went past level 29
Yeah, but hypertapping takes a lot out of your hand, rolling is "easier" when talking about going past the killscreen
iirc hypertapping isn't even viable for more than a minute or two at that level, whereas with rolling we've seen at least one player keep playing into the mid 30s
The animal Crossing one is kind of sad. Like you’re just stuck in a 36 year time loop you can’t ever escape from
It was honestly a relief for me. I was expecting the entire game to crash down. Imagine you’re celebrating the upcoming new year. Something seems a little bit off since it’s so cold, dreary, and lonely, and the only other person around is Tortimer. But it’s still a big event, so you go out and watch the time slowly tick down. The timer reaches zero and says, “HAPPY NEW YEAR!”, some fireworks appear, and then everything goes silent. Everyone is just standing there. Nothing is happening anymore, and nothing will ever happen again. You have just witnessed the death of the universe.
@@aaaah540 yeah that would be creepy, especially if it was the time of bad tvs, just a blurry screen with silent people.
Animal crossing is woerd
Going back to the year 2000 seems like a sweet deal to me 🤷🏻♂️
You could set the time back a few years
I guess technically the year really doesn't matter at all, but I just realized that it's funny that you can even set it back to 2000 when the game came out in 2008.
I remember my mom "beat" Dr. Mario when I was younger, and then seeing her continue on for another like 10 levels blew my mind.
I love how everyone’s mom was the best at Dr. Mario lol, and everyone’s dad would pick DK in Smash,
@@joey5745
My mom often played Dr Mario
@@joey5745 lol that's funny, Dads really behave similar in the whole world
My Mom Kicked My Ass At Dr. Mario
@@joey5745 for my mom it was tetris, seeing her beat level 20 as a kid was downright incredible.
When I was a kid playing animal crossing and saw that you couldn’t set a year after 2035, I genuinely thought that’s when the world was gonna end and got so scared
I mean, you never know...
I mean the world is descending to the apocalypse so it may be will
@@theununtrium we will find out eventually
Should I try to nuke the world by then.
at this rate i wouldn't be surprised
Something like this happened to me once. I was playing the Luigi's Mansion Dark Moon multi-player mode online, and I played a match with random players with number of floors set to Endless. It quickly went down to just me and one other guy, but we just kept going and going. We eventually passed floor 99, and the game kept going, but the floor counter was wrong; I think it just displayed 10 or something, I don't remember. We went a few more floors before we lost, but the highest floor reached that shows on the file select screen was maxed out at 99.
Also, upon passing floor 25th, the game starts to recycled already used bosses too.
I'm guessing the game was only displaying the first two digits of a three-digit number that it wasn't programmed to properly show, so it was trying to display floor "100", but could only show "10".
I've actually had that kind of thing happen myself, in Bo Jackson Football on the Game Boy long ago. One time I played so well against the CPU that I got my score above 99, but then the game only displayed "10". I scored some more and got it to show "11" before the game finally ended.
@@SomeGuy712x I remenber doing an glitch in the GBA version of Creature of Krusty Krab, where the lives counter overflowed to 999 lives, but the in-game counter only showed 9.
Wow, 99 floors in Scarescraper. I've only played it on LM3 (which only goes up to 20 floors, but that's enough for me honestly) but I can't imagine how long that took and how bad your hands must've hurt afterwards. CasualGamer316...more like FullTimeGamer365 lol
You and that guy where the ultimate duo and never even met. Thats an anime origin story if i ever it.
I find it interesting that we can reduce the endlessness of games previously thought to be endless. It's kind of what happened with the Pac-Man 256 glitch. Now I kind of wonder if a similar glitch can be performed in Mappy and Digdug.
Dig-Dug has an interesting kill screen level, where you immediately die until a game over since you spawn right on top of an enemy.
@@MarioFan587YT I didn't know that was a thing. At what point does that happen? Is it level 255? 257?
I believe it was 255 or 256.
@@MarioFan587YT Interesting. I wonder if anyone ever had the tenacity to complete 255 levels of Dig Dug and post it online.
Well they made a whole game about that glitch so it’s pretty well known
I always found the ending from Dr. Mario really weird. Is the game trying to say that the viruses are actually aliens?
Mario vs aliens is a real thing now I guess
Now I know where I come from.
@@Scribf1nite Um, hello? The Shroobs from Mario & Luigi Partners In Time?
Um, Hello?🤓
@@test4O4 he’s just making a good point
If Animal Crossing reached in the year of 2036, then the whole game would be like the Groundhogs Day.
Well that's kinda depressing.
The game has sequels that show how time has passed and isn't looping.
@@Bruhtatochip742 I haven't even had 36 years but yeah going back to the year 2000 would be kinda depressing.
about the tetris thing, last year a guy did a video where he used an ai called stackrabbit to go past level 29 and it went all the way to level 237 before the game crashed. people also usually go past level 29 in tournaments and stuff
The ending to Dr. Mario is actually kind of creepy. It gives the feeling that the virus's are not gone, and they will be back.
Yes me to
@@isayahpesulima7297 too* 🤓🤓
Just like the flu I got a few years ago and now it's back but I'm feeling better
Just like real life
…they literally do…
In tetris the strongest players in the world are now able to reach even the glitched colors, so level 29 is everything but a kill screen for them.
Tetris does however crash after a few hundred levels because if I remember correctly the score becomes so high it lags the game until it crashes
Yeah, when I saw the Tetris I knew someone could do level 29 I thought « That’s humanly possible so some hardcore pro can do it »
Exactly
@@laitdejabot9890 Not really, it requires some special techniques that were only developed recently - to play even further requires techniques developed only around 1 or 2 years ago.
@@scotterboi9 hypertappers were playing past 29 for a while before rolling was a thing
It can crash, but is not guaranteed, so someone with an extreme amount of both luck and skill could pull it off... Well, hypothetically infinitely, though of course that's not within human capabilities
The ducks are coming straight from the Duck Hunt anime. They're so fast that you only see them for a single frame
Wait What? DH has an anime? Source
@@skullerclawerbandicoot7966 Serious? If so, it was a joke

Growing up, I spent hours of my life trying to get to Phase 99 in the Gameboy Advance remake of the original Mario Brothers arcade game.
…at my local laundromat.
I'm tryting to see if i can reach Phase 99 in the original NES version...🤔
…KOOPAS!
Doesn’t sound familiar. Did you stomp anything in that game?
@@nicknogimmicks8524 No joke, when I first played it on my Super Mario Advance 4 cartridge, I tried jumping on a Sidestepper, then a Fighter Fly, then a Freezie, because it was my first time seeing them. I didn’t jump on any Spinies, obviously.
There is an AI that got way past level 29 in Tetris once. The game will eventually use pieces of its code for colors (making brand new color schemes), since you've gone past the point you weren't expected to survive.
Human players have done the same with the rolling technique
Did it crash the game?
@@sontruong4194 I think the game continues to work fine, and probably not ever crashing that I'm aware of. If I remember right, the AI eventually stopped playing so the video could end and be posted.
The game eventually crashes due to taking too long to process scoring.
@@mastermewtwo5503it does crash because of the very reason the glitched colors happen, it starts reading the ram for events so if you do the wrong thing at the wrong time you have a chance for a crash
2:30 **MOON STARTS HURDLING TOWARDS EARTH**
Zelda reference lol
You gotta watch Tetris competitions. Those guys are insane and it is common now to go past the "Kill screen" aka level 29
In tetris, the speed cap is at lvl 29, some players managed to make it past that level, one even going as far as lvl 143, im pretty sure this game is infinite, the only thing that changes from level to level is the colors.
They says in the comments the game ends put crashing
I'm sure that the one who got to lvl 143 was a bot
@@DJruslan4ic EricICX is usually very comfortable at level 29+ speeds and Fractal needs to warm up but also plays comfortably at level 29+ speed. They can both play basically forever.
EricICX has the WR of getting to level 146 with 6 MILLION points. Please do your research before saying these are from bots. People can be very talented.
@@giannistek1 well, I thought about a bot who first got to the glitched colours (forgot his name)
No.. around lv.230s... the game literally freezes up. TAS shows this, it's a cool video done for GDQ one year.
There are tetris players that developed new ways to move the pieces called hyper tapping and this other technique where they use a glove and and "roll" their other fingers on the back of the pad. Rolling has led to unbelievable new high scores, including glitched out levels where the colors change. Very cool stuff
Can't wait to go back to 2000 after 2036!
@SmileyTrashbag turned to dust
@SmileyTrashbag Wait… that means people born after 2000 will get erased from existence until they’re born again
@@anomaly395See ya
Man thatd be so great
2:52 Ah the infamous Y2K bug
this rather seems like a measure to avoid it, the actual year 2038 bug is on 19 January 2038 at 03:14:07 UTC.
Am I the only person that think Wario Ware just repeating the last game on and on is the creepiest thing?
E.G.G
@@IvanFranco120 hahaha
It's not unusual since modes that is just a single microgame with nothing else were in several of them. In the first game they all had target scores and if you got the target in every single mircrogame you unlocked a final minigame as a bonus. It might have been in future titles as well but I haven't played the series in years
Yes looks like you are locked in hell especially that donkey Kong one
It wasn't repeating the last game over and over.
There was only a single game in the list, which made it much easier to get to 999.
5:18 I love the dont move minigame its alot of fun to cheese
3:05 *If anybody wants to see, there's a Donkey Kong kill screen coming up.*
I don't know if it's already posted here, but the Animal Crossing 2036 bug is due to a bug in Unix coding. Year 2036 is the last year the time can count up to. Look it up. Unless devices are updated, the 2036 bug will affect them.
Technically Y2K38 is not a bug. It is a limitation. :) 32 bit Unix Time by defintion does not support timestamps later than 19th January 2038 and neither earlier than 13th December 1901.
@@dabbasw31 You are most certainly correct.
I think in this case it's unrelated. in animal crossing it's 2036 right at the beginning of the year, unix time overflows in to the 33rd bit at some point in 2038.
@@Aeduo There is also an issue with the year 2036. During 7th February, 2036 old versions of the Network Time Protocol will roll over and restart with 1 Jan 1900. There are modern versions which have extended the maximum value near to eternity.
3:24 why do i love the way how mario just goes "DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA DA"
The interesting thing about Classic Tetris is that players have advanced their strategies to the point where level 29 play is now common in both regional and worldwide competitions. Level 146 is currently the highest level reached by a human player, to my knowledge. The colors on the screen had messed themselves so badly that the pieces were only barely visible.
Update: CTWC moded the game to create a Super Kill Screen at lvl 39 which doubles the speed since top players can now play consistently at lvl 29.
@@minombreesirrelevante4407 I knowww. I mean, it makes sense for competitive play, but I'd hate to see this change result in a lack of new world records.
3:50 getting past that is possible, just extremely hard
3:41 actually the lvl 29 isn't neither unbeatable nor the last level, a lot of people went a lot past it and someone coded an ai that reached arround lvl 127 (color palletes started to glitch, sounds as well, until the game crashed)
correction: iirc the AI actually went all the way up to level 238
i think it was like 237
And Last level is 255
5:02 I actually did this not only on an actual GBA SP when I was little, but also 2 years ago on a PS Vita with RetroArch, whilst 100%ing the Japanese version of WarioWare: Twisted (mainly to see all the differences currently undocumented on TCRF)
Nice.
Fun Fact: On the Japanese version of Touched if you get an game over on the elevator session at full speed reached, the game over theme plays faster than usual as it carries the sound over. It dosen't happen in the other versions.
WarioWare on PS Vita ... woooooow.
@@IvanFranco120 That only happens on earlier revisions
Oh hi there Nunof!

6:45
This ending is… so beautiful!
Bro why do I see you everywhere 💀💀💀💀
Reminder that a similar thing happens to WarioWare DIY as a mix of both Judge and AC:CF. Time based stuff can't happen until you restart your DS 24h after a time travel gone wrong or a time issue. However, if your system is set to let's say past 2100 (which my DS got set to via iirc a glitch either involving MW1 DS or getting past max score and still saving in WWDIY (I remember those 2 things happening around the time the save corrupt), you can't progress anymore with sales or even sometimes trading/giving microgames.
to be fair trading microgames hasnt been possible for like 10 years now because they shut down the online service
@@abso1utezer010 Wiimmfi
@@Rebateman I know but they obviously didn’t plan for the online service to be up long enough for you to encounter the issues you are describing above
@@abso1utezer010 it also blocks some achievements so if you get the game in like 80 or so years, you are out of luck.
I've seen TAS videos of NES Tetris showing that after level 255, it loops back to level 0, though an unmodified version of the game will likely crash before then because of how high the scoring gets as it scales up
1:20 this makes sense as Judge 8, in Smash Bros., freezes your opponent
7:12 that's the UFO in Wii play motion
3:50 You can actually get MUCH further than this, as the furthest legit run actually got to the “Glitched Colours” segment, although casual players cannot get past Level 29, which is why it is referred to as the Killscreen.
this year we reached the true killscreen

Technically Wrecking Crew has a second loop difficulty increase. If you keep going after looping back to the first level the fireballs appear more frequently.
When numbers start over after a maximum of that number has increased.
Yes
4:05 Mario: WHAT WILL YOU HAVE AFTER 99 YEARS
Luigi:
Imagine someone doing this with Luigi Bros...
Wrecking Crew is one of the easier ones to figure out what happens since the game has a built in level select. As for Dr. Mario, I’m only familiar with the NES version, but the levels beyond 20 essentially max out on the same number of viruses in the jar. Special cutscenes happen every 5 stages.
3:45 people have become so good at the game it's usual for them to go on forever, past level 29 and on
Someone actually made it close to 255
For micro mini games I use the monkey jumping from one tree to the next to reach maximum points when I was younger. It took me around two hours and a half, ha ha.
Mine could use the egg one from Twisted, or the balloon pop from Touched.
I maxed out a few games in Touched myself
0:10 This duck has RD-601
Ahh you’re someone of culture too I see.
Yes
Animal Crossing: New Horizons has a time limit instead. The game will say you have to reset the clock to continue playing at the start of 2061
5:24 this part sounds like an music playing
I wouldn't call Tetris impossible to continue. Tetris: The Grandmaster 2 had Death mode, where the blocks drop without gradually falling, and I've seen people murder that. We watched some dudes at Magfest do it live. If you thought THAT was hard, there's also death mode +.
here's how you beat Lv. 99 in Duck Hunt
1: Hold tip of Zapper to lightbulb
2: Pull trigger
3: Win
AOE damage
You know; I always though Lv. 99 in Duck Hunt was beatable. Thanks man.
04:56
...even if your real score is 10,000 points, it still shows 999*
The last game was my childhood and I never could remember its name
Oh look, my childhood with Mario Bros GBA.
Same
Such a fun bonus that they even added to Superstar Saga, which wasn't even a remake.
@@gentrydean3789 Still a gigachad choice to do.
The Tetris one looks playable. At speeds like that, I usually just look at the next piece box and play like that (and trust what's happening on the board is happening)
People are finding ways to play well beyond what was thought to be the "kill screen" for Tetris, and go beyond what were thought to be the limits of the human ability to send input by thinking outside of the box on how to use the controller. There's hyper tapping and rolling, and people can get to very very very high levels now
Love how the Tetris community completely demolished this video's statements
thank you for sharing your expertise with such enthusiasm!
So now a 13 year old kid got past level 29 in Tetris up until the game crashed and AC on the Wii is 12 years away from 2036
I feel like I'm gazing into infinity and seeing things no man should witness
Literaly have never seen full ice climbers gameplay until now, which feels crazy because they're in smash
You must be young. Back before Ultimate, Smash Bros had a mode called "Masterpieces". It let you play samples of the games represented. You could play Ice Climbers within Smash Bros. It's a real shame that Ultimate removed it.
@@RandomBoo256 Just in Brawl and Smash 4, and it was annoying how you could only play them for a stupidly small amount of time. Anyway, it was more or less just a teaser to get you interested in buying them on VC, so it'd be kinda pointless on Ultimate.
@@gentrydean3789 Whether it was an advertisement or not, it was still an invaluable way to introduce tons of people to classic games. The time limits were a bit too tight in Brawl, but they're much more reasonable in Smash 4.
I love how wario turns from a fun game to limbo
The tetris one is hilarious as the world championship for it just concluded and in the past year especially most players have learned to play past the “kill screen” that is 29 through first tapping really fast and now a new rolling technique
Gonna be that person to bring this up. likely not the first and not the last. Tetris for NES, has no definable limit. as 29 is it's "Kill Screen" But is entirely still playable past it, and it even functions the same as it would if you just never hit 29, never increasing the speed. The highest i've personally seen is in the mid 60's as that's the point where your endurance is just gassing out, but to be honest. If you were just insanely long winded and skilled enough, you could play forever. with no real limit. The process of both Hyper tapping and rolling is something that was discovered to help players get past what is normally a great challenge, but i've even seen some traditional pad players reach high 30's just through sheer skill. It's become actually a problem, as tournament matches are growing much longer and thus, not ending on time.
"If you were just insanely long winded and skilled enough, you could play forever. with no real limit."
Sadly this is wrong. The StackRabbit AI developed by Greg Cannon was able to clear any level when able to move pieces as fast as possible. In July 2021, StackRabbit got to Level 237 with a Tetris, which ended up with the game crashing. So, you can play up to Level 229 fine, but you risk crashing sometime past that point.
"Colors" (AKA the glitched palettes you get after 1,320 lines from an 18 start) has already been done by a human on both PAL _and_ NTSC. The NTSC game was even done on a Classic Tetris Monthly stream.
the WarioWare ones in these videos are so underWhelming and so overwhelming at the same time
It is whelming.
The animal crossing countdown was so suspenseful

About the Animal Crossing one, if you play Animal Crossing: New Horizons and change the system time to 2036, it actually works because the game follows real life time rather than it’s own.

I remenbered back in 2017 seeing someone reaching phase 99 in Mario Bros GBA.
Dr. MARIO for Game Boy soft locks on level 28.
Level 25 and 26 are the two hardest levels, but if you beat them, level 27 is actually (comparatively) easy to beat.
Level 28 will then load all its viruses, but Mario's evidently gone home because he's not there to throw any more pills, leaving you to simply watch the viruses dance on the screen.
Forever.
Yeah, most likey due of bug...
Specifically a bug in where it starts filling viruses at (several lines below where it should).
The animal crossing screenshot in the thumbnail made me burst out laughing, idk why but I was imagining, like what if for the new years celebration in NYC, when the ball dropped, everyone just yelled “Year! Year!” 😂😂😂
Wait you mean the lightning fast Ducks in Duck Hunt Behind The Scenes were real?
What i find odd is i actually remember beating tetris as a kid. When I played on the Gameboy back in 95 I remember getting to the part where a short cutscene played, showing a birds eye view of what appears to be a Russian cathedral. St. Basil's tower or something similar
Is the tetris for the nes the one that has the killscreen

Hello there, can you please do all of the fastest characters in Smash Ultimate including All DLC with the speed tier list? The last update you uploaded it ended with Steve.
re: the Tetris one, that's just how the top players play, with crazy hand rolling techniques and over-under taps, etc. Wild.
I played that ice climber game once when it was given to me with the Nintendo Ambassador thing for early 3DS buyers. And I'm stunned that it's considered a classic. I guess you have to put it in the era, but it's a platformer that you can so easily die. The jump has a set horizontal distance and collision doesn't always work when your eyes say it should. It gets quite frustrating.

I think the Judge softlock is a bug with the emulated version you're playing, since I have a physical copy and it resets after the alarm sounds.
Imagine if new animal crossing games were only released on the final year of each game
Oh boy. People are going to fight you on that Tetris part.
Very interesting, I never considered Animal Crossing would have the equivalent of a kill screen. Makes sense though
I think I already know what the Animal Crossing one will be. The reason behind the limit is that December 31st, 2035 is the highest possible date that can be represented by a Unix timestamp. So either it will just loop around to the smallest Unix timestamp, or it will overflow into other data and chaos will happen.
2:53 TF, when did Tortimer put you in a time machine?
A giant "YEAR!" sign while an animal crossing villager stares into your soul and the text "At the of time" is on screen is just so ominous
I remember watching the firework in animal crossing at the actual new years eve time. Funny to think about my younger self wanting to see that over being with people
You seem to have forgotten that the actual end to all of these games is "The end"

Animal Crossing is basically that one meme where the guy is looking at the calendar on New Year’s Eve excitedly anticipating for the next year just for it to reset.

About that Tetris one... people found ways past level 29... to where they got the game to reach buggy colors... And that's with legit gameplay.
The real kill screen is thousands of lines cleared cause the sounds start bugging out until the game flat out crashes. But that's only been reached through a TAS program.
The duck hunt one is missing a duck makes dog laugh infinitely
god, i remember having the first mario bros for atari 2600. What a trip.
