We've all heard that many of our favorite video games have glitches that we can exploit. Sometimes we come across them accidentally, other times we read about certain ones online or in gaming magazines.
What are your favorite non-Pokémon video game glitches?
Two of my favorite glitches are both from the original NES
Super Mario Bros.: the "Minus World" (pictured above) and the "Stuck underwater" glitches. Both are 'death traps' to the player-once you get into the Minus World (on the NES version), and you get to the exit pipe, you are taken right back to the beginning of that level, but the timer doesn't reset, meaning you have to keep going and dying until "GAME OVER."
A similar story for the "Stuck underwater" glitch-you duck and swim into the space above the exit pipe in any underwater course (including the Minus World), and you get pulled to the right side of the screen and are trapped there until time runs out or you reset the game.
