Alternate Peach Letter Anomaly

The Alternate Peach Letter Anomaly is an anomaly that occurs in several personalized copies of Super Mario 64. As the name suggests, the anomaly changes the text of the letter sent to Mario by Princess Peach at the start of the game. This can range from minor changes to entirely new text, presumably created by the A.I. How exactly the A.I. does this is unknown.

List of Examples
Due to this anomaly's broad nature, several examples have been documented of this anomaly. Below is a list of some of the potential alternate letters one may encounter.


 * The mentioned food can be changed from cake to some other food, typically another pastry or sweet of sorts. Common examples include pie, spaghetti, rolls, pudding and donuts.
 * If the playable character is changed, the character addressed in the letter may change to match.
 * If the game's story is changed significantly, the character who wrote the letter may change. Common examples include Princess Daisy, Bowser, and Pauline.
 * If the game's hub world is changed, the location the player is asked to go to may change accordingly. This can range from minor changes, such as changing from Princess Peach's Castle to Princess Daisy's Castle, which has minimal geographic changes, to an entire new location such as Toad Town.
