Gaming myths you've fallen for

[BumblebeeCody]

Pretty sure we've all done this as some point.
You have a friend, cousin, older brother/sister, internet site who knows of a way to do [something] in a game that's rumoured to let you access [something].

One that I remember clearly is the Toad in Smash Bros cheat. During the credits, you're giving a minigame similar to Star Fox to shoot the developers names. If you shoot all of them you unlock Toad a hidden character.
I read from multiple sites and heard from a friend that they managed to do it. I gave up after a few tries.

One that I spent hours on, though I can't remember what it was supposed to unlock, was that:
In Mario Kart 64
Pick Mirror Mode
Toads Turnpike
Don't hit any cars and you'll unlock something. I forgot what it was though.

And then there's moving the truck by S.S Anne in Pokemon yellow to find Mew.
