Before you shout "It was a dream" or even better, "Liar!", hear me out. Zip back several years ago. Me and my brother sitting in our room and Im playing Mario Bros 2. I wasnt playing for real, just messing around in the first level. I was at the part where there is the star and the turtle shell, when I jump and poof, the next thing I know ia that there ia a black screen and the words "Welcome to World -1". It did not include the small image or info on how many lives you have. When it started, it was just like another level in the game except black and white. Now here is the part where you yell "Why did you do that?!" because I was at the time, extremely afraid of game secrets and glitches and stuff that generally doesnt happen in a game. 10 seconds later I RESET the darn NES. Poof, this minus world never to be seen by me again. Now, I have a theory that maybe the game overheated or something, and thats what it produced, but Im still kinda skeptical about it. I also have no idea how i accessed it either. Probably a certain combo of buttons. If anyone has the system lying around and the game, my best advice is to just go wild in the first level. More evidence to support that it might have just been the game overheating is that you dont see any info on it anywhere. These days you can tear a ROM apart and see the coding, so if it were really in there someone would have said something. This is getting a little lengthy so ill end it here. To recap: Im serious, i didnt know how i did it, i had a whitness (my brother who still gives me the 3rd degree about restarting every time i bring it up).
