Digimon world 1 is a game I have a massive love for, being a game I actually own and have beaten a couple of times. Digimon world 1 is a game that lets you raise your own Digimon. You must train your digimon, care for it properly, and explore the world and recruit people to your town! They help in a variety of ways, from item storages, hospitals, diners, an arena, all helping make the world easier to traverse!

There's a rather small selection of Digimon to obtain through evolutions, this here being the screen showing you all the digimon that exist within the game (after digivolving into them, of course.)

However, did you know within the gamefiles, there's some extra digimon not implemented in the game? They are, MetalEtemon, Gigadramon, and Panjyamon (Or IceLeomon).

However, two extra digimon exist with no models, those two would be Kaminarimon, and WereGarurumon! (I had no idea what Kaminarimon was and had to look them up for the sake of providing an image. They've not made any appearances at all, so it's surprising they were even thought to be in this game!)

All of these digimon have digivolution items as well! Meaning these were all cut rather late in development. These items are the MetalBanana, Noble Mane, Giga Hand, Electro Ring, and Moon Mirror.

That being said, to those wondering why WereGarurumon was cut and not prioritized to be put in, this game came out before the Anime! An interesting extra tidbit, is the english voice actor for Mameo is Mona Marshall, also voices Izzy from that anime!

In "Yella in the Cella part 4", you can obtain the Bubble power-up, which as long as you have enough ammunition for it, allows Scooby Doo to capture monsters and put them in a bubble, which Scooby Doo can use to jump on top of as a platform. This game has probably the easiest out of bounds glitch one could possibly do. By obtaining the Bubble power up, getting a monster close to a wall, and then using the Charge attack. If you wiggle enough, you can just simply... pop out of bounds!

When I was younger, this little glitch was exceptionally fun to mess around with! I often did it in "On Edge in the Hedge Part 2." Unfortunately, if you stray too far from the main path, Scooby Doo may occasionally teleport back to where you entered the room in!

If you own this game, I'd say play with this little glitch. As far as I know, there's no real good use for it. But, not everything needs a use.

If she battles you, she will sputter out nonsensical text, and when the battle starts, she’ll simply crash your game! But, Inputting another cheat code/tampering, you can give her the ability to battle you, and you learn this Ghost Girl actually has a name, Cara!

She has only 3 Pokemon, Two Horseas and a Kingdra. With this, you figure out that her name and her Pokemon are actually taken from a trainer in the Dragon’s Den. However, upon defeating Cara, you’ll see this!

A red Kingdra! Now, in terms of gameplay, this is about all you get. She appears, spouts nonsense, fights you, and then leaves. However, there’s a little more people connect her with, and that’s with some unused text that would appear in Ecruteak City. “Oh, no. Oh, no… My daughter is missing. No… She couldn’t have gone to the BURNED TOWER. I told her not to go near it… People seem to disappear there… Oh, what should I do…?“

This is to be a side quest that was ultimately scrapped. But connecting this to Cara here, one could theorize this is what happened: One day, Cara went to the Burned Tower, and somehow met an unfortunate demise. Now, she’s a ghost, doomed to roam Glitch City, a distorted nonsensical world for all eternity.

In Sonic CD,  by inputting specific codes into the Sound test, you can get unique screens.

By inputting (FM 46, PCM 12, DA 25),  Created by “Satan”  “Masato Nishimura,” this screen is the most famous out of all the secret screens, scaring many people over the years. Accompanied with this image is Sonic CD’s Boss Theme. The text below reads, “Infinite fun, Sega Enterprises - Mazin Picture.”

However, while this is the most infamous screen, there’s more to see! By inputting (FM 42, PCM 4, DA 21), and created by “Takumi Miyake.“ You’ll get what’s nicknamed “Batman Sonic,” due to the muscular figure, and darkness. The final boss theme plays during this little screen.

By inputting (FM 44, PCM 11, DA 9), you’ll get an adorable little sonic here. The Japanese text you see below translates to “You are cool”, “By Sanchanzu.”

By inputting (FC 44, PCM 11, DA 9), The artist behind “The Fastest DJ, MC SONIC” is none other than “Kazuyuki Hoshino!” With the phrase “Can I kick it?” Looking it up, it’s a call and response, wanting the audience to say Yes.  

Finally, by inputting (FM 40, PCM 12, DA 11), you’ll this art of Tails with Lotus Seven. Created by “Judy Toyota,” “Yasushi Yamaguchi”. Not much to say for this one!
