Greenio's Odd Findings

A series of 3 recordings have been uploaded by the YouTuber Greenio, all cataloged within a playlist called Super Mario 64 Odd Findings. The videos contain grainy footage of Super Mario 64 phenomena.

The video starts with Mario in the Basement of the Castle. He goes to the Basement Hallway, where a coloring error takes place. He subsequently enters the Star Door, where the Wario Apparition occurs, and the screen goes to black. After this, four black and white pictures occur. The first one is a screenshot of beta Peach's Castle. Next, a beta picture of the mother penguin at Cool, Cool Mountain. Then, a screenshot of a beta version of Super Mario 64 with a boo (presumably the beta Castle Courtyard). Lastly, a picture of Bob-omb Battlefield (specifically the Spring 1996 version of Bob-omb Battlefield). After this, the game goes back to the title screen.

The video starts with Mario at the Eternal Star Statue. The screen subsequently goes to black three times and Mario then dies. An error message subsequently appears with a voice playing in the background. The voice is in Japanese but the voice roughly translated says "The area reached in the game was not supposed to be accessed by the general public. Turn off the game system and send us a copy of the game for confirmation. Don't ask anything else. Luigi is not part of this game. He does not exist in this title. Talking about this event to anyone you know may have legal consequences. Thank you for understanding." Finally, a beta picture of Super Mario 64 appears, where both Mario and Luigi are in Rainbow Ride.

This seems to be a commercial accidentally airing on Cartoon Network back when the Nintendo 64 was called the Nintendo Ultra 64. It starts off with regular beta Mario 64 footage, but then, at 0:38, the infamous Wario Apparition occurs. The commercial then switches to a screen saying "EBS. This is a test. This station is conducting a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. This is only a test." Then there are two long beeps, and at 0:58, the text changes to: “This is a test of the Emergency Broadcast System. The broadcasters of your area in voluntary cooperation with federal, state, and local authorities..."

The video starts with a debug screen with the skybox of Wet-Dry World, which seems to be a showcase of textures starting with texture ID 37 which is the texture of the beta brick walls on the outside of Peach's Castle, the textures can be moved, change their size andangle of them. As the video goes on, it showcases more textures IDs until the video shows texture ID 41 (which is Luigi's cap emblem) and after that, when looking at texture ID 41, there's no visible texture at all, after that, a few texture IDs appear until there's texture ID 45 (which resembles a brain) which briefly appears before it causes a crash handler screens and the video ends.

Trivia

 * Originally, these tapes were canon to Greenio's Lost Tapes, but on August 8th, Greenio decided to make these separate from the other 6 tapes.
