The Bezlo Rom

The "Bezlo" Rom refers to a ROM of Super Mario 64 that circulated on 4chan around 2004. Despite being a SM64 ROM dump, there were many oddities that people pointed out including poor music, a new level, and constant slow down. Many have assumed it was an early SM64 ROM Hack, and while that is indeed possible, this ROM predated the wide spread of SM64 editing tools, leading some to believe this ROM contained personalization.

Due to the ROM's bizarre nature that conflicted with many's SM64 experience, many did not back up the ROM leading it to become Lost Media. However, looking over 4chan threads we can gather what the game may have looked like. For the most part it was a fairly standard SM64 affair, but the game did replace most of the music with what was described by a 4channer as "s****y hip-hop". Now this could mean the Personalization AI made the music "bad", but it could also be an issue with emulation.

More interestingly however was the amount of people who claimed the level Tall, Tall Mountain was replaced with a new level called "Spooky Sinister City", a level which took place in a "post-apocalyptic city" near a "beach". Luckily someone was able to rip some files from said stage which can be seen to the side of the page. Additionally, several described "zombie-like goombas" plaguing this level, however these were sadly not ripped.
