In my case, it was when I was playing a game clearly developed in Korea, but the Korean guides were mostly vague or inaccurate. Meanwhile, the Western guides were spot-on and explained everything clearly and in detail.

-Local game store I love going to

-Really wanna find a cartridge of Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions for the Nintendo Ds

-Can't find it, only the Ds port of Edge of Time which is bleugh but still a fun novelty so I buy it

-They take cartridge from the drawers every gamestore has

-As I'm driving home, I open the ds case to look at the game and see if it has a fun manual or whatever

-Instead of Edge of Time there's a cartridge for Shattered Dimensions

TFW you unknowingly pull reverse psychology on the universe itself


The exact same store I bought a copy of Spider-Man: The Movie for the XBOX and there was just a near mint disc of the Batman Begins game inbetween pages of the manual, no extra charge. Turns out that game is well regarded and ALSO one of the few og Xbox games compatible with the 360. Being into licensed games is a shockingly rewarding hobby lmao.

There's no more unexpected or ridiculous moment than the time I tried to Sketch Gau on the Veldt (FF6) and it corrupted my save file. I had to restart the game and when I reloaded I had 99 counts of various items. Never had that happen before or since.

I have ran into hundreds of bugs in Bethesda games but those are less memorable because none of them stand out.

The part in saya no uta where saya gets corrected. Completely unexpected, i actually widened my eyes while reading the scene, and to make matters worse, my father walked in and asked "what's that?"

It would have been better if he caught me playing the kingdom heart's atlantis level.
