These days we hear about them soon enough but back in the day games could have bugs that you never even knew about. Anyone got any stories to tell? I have one of course, hence starting this thread.
Mario 64 course Dire, dire docks:
I had a glitch that mean that when I reached this level the yellow and black poles were not moving around. Of course, I didn't know that they were supposed to be moving so I spent hours trying to get all the red coins. And I got them all apart from 1. I concluded that it was impossible to get the last coin so, for the first and only time, I phoned the Nintendo game hotline and found out I had discovered a bug. The only solution was to start again. The result is that to this day I have never finished Mario 64.
Anyway, anyone else got any old skool game breaking stories?
