The True Super Mario 64

 The true Super Mario 64 



''' So, I bought recently an old copy of Super Mario 64 from the old game store just a half mile from my house. It is closing soon, so all the neighborhood kids are getting the games. The store opened in 1984 and was alive for Super Mario Bros. when it was new. Lot of memories. I rode my old blue bike home, to my grandma’s house up a rocky old road out here in a suburb of Fargo, North Dakota. I parked it and excitingly ran inside and put the game in my Nintendo 64. So, as usual, the game started up. I was a Mario fan so I was very excited. The menu came on, you know, with the Mario head thing. It creeped me out sometimes, I would just Google “Mario 64 head” just to have nightmares. I pressed “New Game” and the game started as usual. After all the beginnings and that stuff blah blah blah, I played. I was Mario, and I ran inside Peach’s castle. I knew how to play because I watched walkthroughs on YouTube a lot. '''

''' It was about 3 hours of continuous playing later, and I am still a bit excited. I have cleared a good few areas and got stars. I got twelve, so I make my way out to the courtyard behind her castle. There are a few Boo’s out here, as usual. I stomp on the Big Boo, and a small cage pops up. I shrink and jump inside and the game loads. After it is done loading, I am in a large dark castle named “Big Boo’s Haunt”. This place creeped me out some. I made my way around, checked the area and headed inside. The inside was also kind of scary in a way. There was a few doors. I headed up the stairs to a random room. In there, there was this piano that attacked me when I got close. I ran out of that room into another. This room had an eyeball floating around. I tried a few ways to defeat the eyeball, each ending in failure and low health. '''

''' After the eighth time, when I ground-pounded it, I disappeared. I think the game was glitching. I appeared in some dark hallway that appeared to be empty and made of concrete. I walked ahead, but Mario seemed to be..sweating? And he was walking slower. I kept moving, curiously. The screen glitched a few times. Soon, I seen a boo. Actually, two boos. Okay now three. They just kept coming out of the walls. My hands started sweating on my controller. Right at that moment, Mario started puking a strange brownish-green animated substance and he was covered in blood in a flash. He lied down on the ground and tears came from his eyes. The boos started filling my screen and I couldn’t see. The screen of my television went black. My room was also black since it was night time. The screen came back on after a couple of seconds, and showed a dark room that appeared as if it was in the mansion. Mario’s guts were splattered everywhere. His eyeballs were dangling from his skull lying on his shelf. I was truly disgusted and scared. I backed away from the television and threw the controller down. The television then popped off and my console start steaming and sparked. My room was pitch black and I was sitting on my bed in fright. '''

''' I don’t know what happened, if the game was hacked or now, but I know I am never playing another Mario game again. '''
