I am going to share an experience I had with Super Mario Odyssey that will certainly make you not see Mario games the same way again. |

The year was 1998. I was an employee at Nintendo, my dream job. I had special access to the game 19 years before it was released. Playing the game required a huge computer that was extremely powerful for the time. Each employee had a PC that was hooked up to the main computer, but because that main computer couldn't be mass-produced or fit inside the homes of average Joes, the game couldn't be released until 2017. I felt really special being able to play a game that hardly anyone would play until another 20 years. I had a lot of fun roaming around the unfinished worlds and bouncing off Hat Guy (the original name for Cappy). I was a beta tester, so I didn't have to do any boring work. On October 31st, I was tasked with making sure everything in the Metro Kingdom had collision. I had to check every building, object, sidewalk, you name it, but I didn't think it was boring because I was playing a game that people couldn't even fathom in 1998. |

However, my happiness quickly turned to confusion and being creeped out. In the southeast corner of the top of the giant building that holds up the entire city, I saw a translucent figure of a man waving and jumping up and down. However, when I got closer to him, he disappeared. Thinking it was something the other developers accidentally left on the map, I asked an employee I worked with to remove it. Before I could even finish my sentence, he rushed to my desk and shut off my computer in fear. He then stutteringly told me "Do not go by that man again!" I was really confused, but I was tired, so I didn't think much of it. He then left my cubicle, so I turned my computer back on. I could faintly hear him saying to another employee "Why did you tell him to check the Metro Kingdom?" I slowly walked by them and awkwardly asked them what was going on. Both of them simultaneously said "Nothing! Nothing!" I then asked "Is this some kind of prank?" The guy who apparently ordered me to check the Metro Kingdom said "No, just go back to work, slave!" |
