Just to let you guys who love the original pokemon game glitch know, if you do that glitch too much, it will permanently eliminate your ability to save.
I, and many others over did the missing number trick, and now our pokemon games are gone for good. My red version suffered, so I need to find a new one that can save to complete my collection once again.
Did you know that if you capture a missing number, and try to trade it to gold or silver version through timecapsule, that it will show up as a remoraid, and give you the message "your friends remoraid is abnormal!" It's true. I have a feeling that the programmers of silver and gold forsaw people trying to do that, and prepared ahead of time by adding the abnormal message.
As for other glitches, there was this one in bugdom during the big one where you fly dragonflys at the giant bee hive and attack it, and if you land with the back of the thing facing the wall, with you still on it, you can get outside of the game boundaries, and into the red zone outside the area cell data limits. It's interesting that I remember that glitch after it's been SO many years since I last played that game.
Then in lemmings paintball, if you jump on a certain trampoline square on a certain level in a certain angle, you can get outside the game cell limits, eternally running across endless squares of terrain.
But those are less well known games that I experienced only a handful of times in my childhood. Let's get on to the extreme stuff!
So in rayman 2: the great escape, if you play it on just the right kind of old computer, then it might produce a glitch in the beginning of the first level, where a duplicate of Rayman runs eternally forward up against the wall, and another glitch, where if you play it off of the right kind of old computer, you can jump into the waterfall, and come out swimming in the air.
Then there's the glitch where you can control areas outside of your influence ring in the original Black & White. I'm not even sure how to make it happen.
Then there's the nice glitch, which I'm not sure if it's a glitch or not, in Battlefield Vietnam, where if you ride in a transport helicopter, but just jump into the back and dont actually sit down, then the helicopter gets shot down and turns all black and charred from the explosion, you might actually survive the explosion, and the crash landing.
But my #1 favorite is still the missing number glitch, which I grew up with, and did all sorts of cool experiments with, even if it did kill my red version.
