The devs of DK64 made a mistake when creating the save file. The save data for the names associated with your DK Arcade highscore share 1 bit with your jetpac highscore.
As such, depending on the name you enter, your highscore will either look like a normal player or Steve Wiebe's cousin

i was going through my X archives and found this by @superpodsaga.com, which I qrt'd at some point years ago
so, let me bring the question back: what is the most useless piece of video game knowledge you know?

So figured out what this was... another race in Crystal Caves. This time a flying course against a very vulture-sounding Squawks. Unfortunately incredibly broken so requires a lot of pushing and poking to get it working as intended.

Whoever cooked up this path in Caves where a GB or balloon rises from the water deserves both a medal for their ingenuity and a question on why they went back on that decision

Oh, and it also supports all 5 known versions of DK64. It *can* also work with ROM Hacks, but depending on the complexity of the hack (in terms of what assets are compressed), the mileage will vary

There's more to come as well for DonkViewer. Just will take a sec to port it from Python to JS.
I've been using my python scripts to view this stuff for 1-2 years, and I'm looking forward to others being able to see the same kind of interesting things about this game.

Introducing DonkViewer:
The past few days I've been working on a brand new tool which shows all 216 maps in DK64 in various modes (geometry, collision etc) all within the web browser, and I finally have it in a state where it's ready for others to play with.

Turns out that DK64 has a wireframe mode built in. Doesn't look like there's any way to activate it in the vanilla game without memory hacking.
Thankfully, all it takes is 2 address changes to activate

Due to the forced diagonal-down perspective in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, a trick is employed whereby Mario actually walks faster towards/away from the camera than alongside the camera to create the illusion of smooth movement from that angle in particular.
