Did you know that Super Mario Brothers 2 isn't even in a real Mario game? It's a reskin of a Japanese title called 'Dokey Dokey Panic' so they could sell it to the west. wtf??

The real SMB2 was just deemed too hard for us and is now known as the Lost Levels. What the heck, Nintendo. They weren't lost, you just hid them!
 
Did you know that originally you used your penis to attack creatures un Castlevania, but it was renamed to "whip" in NA due to censorship?
 
Did YOU know that “Pac Man” was originally named “Puck Man” due to his resemblance to a hockey puck, until executives realized that “puck” was one letter off from “fuck”, so it was likely that teenagers across the country would vandalize arcade cabinets to say “video games are for faggots”, so they killed themselves.
 
Did you know that if you've beaten Ninja Gaiden, that you are guaranteed to be a virgin forever?
 
What happens if you beat it after losing your virginity?
If you managed to lose your virginity, you're probably not enough of a sperg to beat Ninja Gaiden.
If you do manage to loose your virginity and beat ninja gaiden. Then some secret ninja clan kidnaps you in the middle of the night to train you to be a real ninja.

That’s how it shook out for me, yeah.
 
Did you know that Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Heritage for the Future has a big playerbase still today on Fightcade? There are websites explaining combos for different characters and a tier list. My boy Kakyoin is towards the top if not in first place.
 
Did you know that the original name for Pac-Man was Puck-Man? You'd think it was because he looks like a hockey puck but it actually comes from the Japanese phrase 'Paku-Paku,' which means to flap one's mouth open and closed. They changed it because they thought Puck-Man would be too easy to vandalize, you know, like people could just scratch off the P and turn it into an F or whatever.
 
There's a Famicom game with text inside the code talking about how much the programmer thinks his bosses are asshats and his coworkers are bastards. Similar rants are found surprisingly often in old games. That or text asking you to apply to the company that made the game.
