Easy. UFO in first level of Kirby's Adventure. It's already a painfully easy level in an easy game, you can't keep the power without cheating with game genie or something, and it's buried pretty damn good. At least the secret OP posted is a trade-off of a P-wing for 3 extra lives. You get nothing at all out of the secret UFO in Kirby's Adventure.

That was one of those things I never found out about until I'd become an adult male. I think it is just there for the noveltarious aspect - a well-concealed secret that gifts you the most powerful ability in the game, right there in the very first stage! Doom 2 did something very similar, with the rocket launcher in stage 1 secret, that most people will overlook.

After being an underage female?

I love you anon

You mean name a more awesome secret. Imagine being old enough to have discovered this on your own and not via some e-celeb's YouTube channel, zoomer. I know you can't, but take my word for it, it feels awesome.

>rocket launcher in stage 1 secret
I recall getting this as a kid and could never figure it out again to this day.

>>7441869
I won't spoil it in case you want to try to figure it out, but there's really no logic to it, youd pretty much either need to be told or just happen to accidentally trigger it (and realize you've triggered it)

>>7441215
That's not useless though. Its a P-Wing bonus.

>>7441215
Literally does nothing.

press select on the same frame you get hit

Obviously.
Only zoomers can't figure out the solution to this Mario puzzle.

>>7441215
technically it's a glitch

>>7441832
Heckin' cute and valid if true.

>>7443268
>technically it's a glitch
No, it's a feature. You can even escape -1 and get to -2 and so forth.

>>7441656
I assume the UFO was a late addition and putting one in the first level was the easiest way to debug it.

>>7442919
I think an enigma is a worthwhile secret. The fact that you don't find that anywhere else in the game makes it unique. If it were any other kind of setpiece that were all over the game then I'd say it's a waste of time though with no soul

Super secret warp barrels in DKC2 and DKC3. Only use for them was for a single one-time contest where kids with dads working at Nintendo had a clear advantage.

>>7443228
No, I mean once you leave a level, it's gone.

What the fuck is this reddīt baby babble?

Why do all you fucking freaks have a massive case of arrested development?

What’s your location so I can curb stomp you till your favorite activities are apple sauce and coloring books?

>>7443839
No fan of the it but when a redditot talks about "reddīt baby babble", while reddit spacing? I have to draw a line, You need to go back kiddo.

Both of you insufferable cunts shut the fuck up. Jesus.

In Shatterhand you can destroy this piece of wall, but it leads nowhere. More of a glitch than anything because the reason you can destroy it is because the white wall above that is destructible.

If you're lucky you'll get a coin that spawn when destroying the wall.

In Mega Man 5 you can slide and hide behind this wall

In Tiny Toons Adventure you can go on top of the screen in this level and go swin inside the background. If you keep going it'll be a dead end.

SMB3 has some really awesome secrets that are pretty well hidden.

in the 2nd part of World 5, there is a secret mushroom house that spawns another of those white flying ship bonus stages full of coins

you know those secret autoscroll segments in the clouds? Some of them hold secret safe boxes with cloud items in them, the ones that let you skip stages

My bad I got confused, it's an anchor for the flying ship that ends the world that you get, not another white ship full of coins. But who knew that the anchor existed?

Come to think of it, that anchor is pretty useless so it's on topic.

>>7443685
It's the strongest weapon in the game, it's just the fact that you have to sacrifice your entire playthrough to get it.

>>7446387
>>7446382
Btw, at the end of issue011 it says "look for another supplement in EGM's next issue", but that is nowhere to be found in any of the scans online. So I don't know if it exists or not.

And to think there are people who actually think World remotely stacks up to 3. 3 has so much shit like this it's almost in every single level in a very long game. Almost all the 2 and a half year dev time must have been spent on the level design alone.

>>7442919
This was clearly going to be an alternate exit leading to a different boss and presumably a Stage 6', but it was probably too late in development and both the Stage 6' and potentially Stage 7' (maybe even 8') were never worked on.

In Contra you can jump down onto an invisible platform right here.

"Reddit spacing" has been a 4chan oldfag staple since before you were even born.

Now,

cope.

>>7447219
I wish I was there.

:(

>>7441869
You go up the elevator to that small alcove with the imp and the button, then fall down to that weird light cube on the ground, touching that sector opens the door

>>7442919
Reminds me of the Angel statue in Sonic CD
I guess you do get a few rings tho

>>7447354
>wish I were there
ftfy

>>7441839
Yeah, by the usual /vr/ standard it's well crafted

>>7447413
And if you go to where it is in the Bad Future, it's an Eggman statue that drops spiked balls on you instead.
