Sleep is temporary, McDonald's DS is forever.

@@wigglywong2546 if you don't sleep soon you'll manifest your own McDonald's game as hallucinations

battery is literally forever.
Or until the cartridge won't play
The fact that three different people across the world were fiercely and unknowingly racing to document an obscure McDonald’s training game for the DS at the same time is almost like a minor miracle. How tf does that even happen. It’s SO specific
Just look at history, quick example is the pioneers of the telephone Elisha Gray and Alexander Bell.
@@Fermifire Nothing compares to the invention of the telephone, like finding a useless McDonalds Japan training game for an obsolete gaming device. U right
About dirty teriyaki: McDonald's don't actually wipe/wash their hands after handling the raw patties. They all wear gloves. Two different gloves are provided for raw food and prep. The dirty teriyaki was simply a forgotten step in the game alone.
(Coming from an old McDonald's employee)
That makes sense. I knew there wasn't a reason that washing your hands would be bad. I believed it was simply unnecessary for the teriyaki.
Here at McDonald's Netherlands we don't wear gloves and we don't wash our hands basically ever after handling anything except when we touch the ground, something that has been on the ground or our body. We only wash our hands when we feel they're dirty from the oil or sauces from assembling/dressing and when we return from a break/toilet. And yes, that is also a thing during the pandemic. Maybe that's why our numbers aren't falling..
gloves get dirty the same was as hands
@@JohnSmith-zk8xp thats why you change gloves. but I bet you don't wear your gloves to go take a shit or rub one out on break huh
15:40 The teriyaki patties don't require hand-washing because they are already cooked, but refrigerated. I worked in a fast food chain that sold chicken sandwiches, including teriyaki, and all the 4 variants of chicken patties were already cooked upon shipment, you just need to reheat them on the grill. This is because, ironically enough, chicken is very dangerous to handle raw, moreso than any other type of meat, so they cook them before shipment, unlike the beef patties, which aren't AS dangerous to handle raw.
Oh that makes sense
everyone like this so nick sees
Came here to make that exact guess. Thanks for confirming.
This follows in a modern McDonald’s in Australia
Cool
The "Spooky" image, is background assets from Metroid Fusion, specifically the very first room. _Absolutely_ no idea why this would be inside this rom, especially seeing as it's from a *GBA* game, rather than DS.
looks like ice with soda
Both are very similar, but comparing the scenes you can clearly see the differences.
Perhaps this means the developer of the mcdonalds game was Intelligent Systems - worked on metroid, located in japan, and works closely with nintendo.
@@mikechisholm the game wasn't necessarily created with or by Nintendo

The Laval thing is interesting, I worked at a Canadian McDonald’s about a year ago and the methods taught in the game are incredibly similar to the actual stuff we did in the restaurant, so the idea they might have ported the game to English and French makes sense to me
Also my theory on the teriyaki is that it was pre cooked so you had no risk of contamination from one food to another, the reason I think this is due to the fact that we didn’t need to wear gloves when handling sausage while I worked there, du to the fact that it was pre cooked
wow
"Fries in various stages of being frenched" is a fucking amazing sentence right there

Theory:
Montréal is the world's fifth-largest video game centre, after Tokyo, London, San Francisco, and Austin. Laval is right next to Montréal. eSMART 2.0 was in development in Montréal and used Laval's McDonalds as beta testers but the project was eventually cancelled.
Do you think perhaps there could still be a copy there? maybe one of the employees just nabbed a copy and brought it back with him or maybe the company let the store keep them?
@@mokari6632 If they were beta testing no way Nintendo didn't take the cartridges back.

You're mostly right! Here's the weird part: while it's about 80% similar to the Metroid Fusion sprite, it actually has a TON of differences, which makes this even more mysterious. I laid them on top of each other to make the differences easier to see: i.imgur.com/giAsTdC.png

But at the end all those things were scrapped due to commercial shenanigans?

I'm assuming the "alien landscape" image is probably a piece of art from another game the developer was working on. Sometimes devs use assets from other projects early on in the creation of a game so they can test the engine. I wonder if that asset was actually used somewhere. If so, it may give a good clue to the original maker of this.
Intelligent Systems worked on metroid, and they work very closely with nintendo japan.
The top half looks like ice cubes in a drink but the bottom half is something else
That are fries in oil.
@@patrickreese1868 if that's ice in a drink, we're looking at something like a bucket of fizzy drink.
@@Gameboygenius reminds me of that one guy who used his kfc bucket as an cup
The "alien landscape" is probably a corrupted image that combines a cloesup shot of ice cubes in a soda drink, and a top-down view of the inside of a McDonald's work area.
Could it be the texture map for the highlights? (The shiny ice cubes and the shiny work area)
I actually thought that they look more like french fries currently being fried
i have a theory that the file slipped from another game the devs were working on... dont know how plausible it is tho
thx
@@jamesogden3082 I thought texture maps were mostly for 3d models. This game looks completely 2d.
Regarding Laval, Quebec. I’ve heard that a lot of McDonalds “tests” are done in Quebec. Weird store layouts for example. I don’t think this is unknown so the person commenting could just be lying based on that knowledge, but it gives it some credibility.
Yeah, Kingston Ontario was a similar "test market" for McDs in the late 90s early 2000s. Im not sure if it is anymore. It had to do with demographic makeup. I can remember locations having an odd menu item like bbq junior chicken or ranch quarter pounder every so often
OH SNAP.
Also, Laval is a dangerously boring place to go to. Just look at XQC to see what Laval can do to a human being. Trust me I'm from Quebec. Laval is basically just a big subburb for montreal disguised as a town
I love the idea that McDonalds has chosen a random city in Quebec, Canada to be the testing grounds of top secret projects lmao
@@jslavertu imagine being able to eat all the experimental macstuff so cool.

You're mistaken
15:52 isn't showing somebody washing their hands, they're cleaning the top of the burger off the teflon that comes down. The 10:1 and 4:1 patties have a tendency to stick to the top after it goes back up, so you're supposed to clean it off. Maybe the teriyaki pattie doesn't stick.
Mystery solved I guess 👍
and to clean off hamburger grease
I believe the video is showing the person "cleaning their hands" as the grill comes down. Usually this isnt the smartest time to attempt to clean it so I doubt thats what theyre showing.

I gotta say that "alien landscape" looks a whole lot like an unfinished texture for some ice cubes floating in a liquid, either soda or water, and the one below it was probably a generic placeholder.
The metallic part is definitely from Metroid Fusion, I bet my toes for it
I actually have a theory for what the bottom image is. While a bit of a stretch, this could be a unfinished image of a mall that the McDonald's of that copy of ECDP originates from.
@@huntercraft1817 I'd say that's a valid theory

In the "alien landscape" portion, Isn't that the shuttle bay in Metroid Fusion? Probably wrong, but it looks kind of like it. It's that or they're leftover assets from whatever studio actually developed the cartridge.
Edit: Just looked it up. it is 100% the shuttle bay in Metroid Fusion.
bump
it look like ice and soda
Exactly what I thought! It's been a long time since I played Metroid Fusion, but I recognized it immediately.
@@danielmoreira7085 alot of theories
I checked it's very slightlly different yet so Identical, with minor differences like with the lights and button and very minor difference on the silhuoette.
at 33:34 that's the docking bay from metroid fusion! it's severely miscolored (it should be gray and white) and cut in half with the right side seemingly being replaced with a different sprite layer of the left, but that's definitely the docking bay!
edit: I should mention that no color scheme you tried matched it because metroid fusion is a game boy advance game, and that the docking bay in question was actually very much human in design. trust me, it looks a lot better properly rendered.
i looked at this side by side, and its a little different with the plating but maybe...
It definitely is, I've played the game many, many times. It might be an in development version and not the final artwork if it's not an exact match. The right half is the lighting layer that creates the glow effect during gameplay.
The upper part is straight up ice cubes in soda in a weird colour palette.
Why the docking area is on the cartridge is weird, but probably just leftover data if they reused something.
Holy heck

I know several art music composers who have had their music performed internationally. If you look at the small text, you find out it was performed once or twice in the US, though one had his music performed in France.
As such, you are a McD eDCP speed running legend. The small text is that you put fries in baskets a lot and recorded it.
As long as you remember the small text, don't feel bad about the title. You are the one who put in the small amount of effort that was actually needed to get recognized as such. It's surprising how little you need for some titles.
but you went ZOOM
That alien landspace looks just like the Docking Bays of Metroid Fusion, is not exactly the same, but rather of a concept pixel art of it? what still makes it very strange, why is it in ECDP files?
Yes, finally someone gets it. It looks wayy to similar to the Docking Bays, but for some reason. The top image reminds me of Earthbound
Maybe it is the devs who left a mark to show who made the game
That seems too unlikely
eDCP built off Metroid Fusion engine confirmed lol
I recognized that image as the Metroid Fusion docking bay immediately. Maybe a remnant of an unfinished easter egg where you're making Big Macs for Samus or something.
Curious about "Donald McDonald," or anything else from this video? Don't forget to watch part 1 of the McDonald's iceberg! Here's a link: czcams.com/video/d23bAqGtImo/video.html
I hope there really is a English version in Canada. It would be fun to compare them to Japan’s version if they are different like Mac adventures
Hey I'm like 80% sure that the alien looking pixel art you mentioned (at 33:15) in this vid is showing the space ship docking bay from Metroid Fusion. There is a scene specifically where the hangar is open; it kinda looks like that. I looked at some images of the Fusion hangar and noticed some details were different, but it still looks very similar. I suggest you take a look at that

The alien landscape file looks like it might be a multichannel reference for other content. Saving auxiliary data in RGB channels is super common for post processing, especially in cases when you want to save space. It's quite likely the "spaceship interior" is actually scaled and rotated snippets that would've been stitched for the machine layouts in the cut store builder. The blocky space looks like ice cubes in soda to me. Call me crazy, but it might be a negative image also. Devs take weird shortcuts and preprocess certain steps to save on code and memory in embedded software. Try color inverting it and see if it looks any more sensible.

Yes I remember! Thx for the trip down history lane
Okay I really need you to read this; I live in Ontario Canada (born and raised), and I swear to god I've seen/heard of a Canadian McDonald's DS game. Maybe this is some weird Mandela effect, or maybe this video really did unlock a hidden memory in the back of my mind. Either way I had a massive wave of deja vu when you mentioned Laval Quebec. I just have this memory of CBC (the Canadian Broadcasting Channel) reporting on a DS McDonald's game for training staff, and how it was "used in Japan as well" (or something along those lines), and I remembered my dad being mildly perturbed by this, probably because of his fear of modern technology. I think I was intrigued though, at least enough to have this memory still (if it's not a false one). I was probably 9 or 10 at the time, making the date somewhere around 2008/2009.

As a resident of Ontario Canada who applied for a job at Don’s early this month, I’ll ask my interviewer if they know anything about that, and will get back to you on that
Edit: I know I’m not in Quebec, but still, I want to ask about it just in case I get any knew info
I think this video takes the gold medal for "most useless inconsequential information I'll never use for anything".
Dont take that the wrong way it's a complement that you kept my interest this long lmao.

I've been clicking on movie myths and legends, mysteries, unsolved crimes, lost media and other sp00ky icebergs.
Never in my life did I think I'd spend 35 minutes watching a video on a McDonald's Nintendo DS cartridge.
To put into perspective, that's 35 more minutes than I'd spend playing it!
...I kinda liked it though.
if anybody sees this the bottom texture on the "alien landscape" was a beta texture from metroid fusion. and to me the top textures look like a bunch of ice cubes. (though they may also be a back drop from metroid fusion). my guess to why a metroid fusion beta texture and another image is in a training game is they were probably placeholders.(heres the time stamp for it 33:09. you can tell me in the replys what you think it is).

I am not Japanese, and I don’t speak the language. But it looks like the last hiragana on the second profile is え not い, which would mean her name is Kanae, not Kanai.
(If anyone is curious, the pronunciation for かなえ/Kanae is ‘kah-nah-eh’)
Yeah I've studied japanese for the past 6 years and it really threw me for a loop when I saw him put even the wrong hirigana next to the original ones.
Kanye West = America
Kanae East = Japan

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that, those two kana are really different lol. I imagine he misheard the translator he was with?
@@Syiepherze yeah, I checked the play through video, and it was kinda hard to tell what the name was. It is easy to get confused sometimes lol
