Max's Game Dev

In Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, there is only one Double Pain badge that is normally obtainable, the effect of which is to double the damage Mario receives. Despite there being only one in the game, the code contains functionality for multiple being worn, multiplying the damage by (1+amount of Double Pain badges worn), so x3 for 2 badges, x4 for 3 badges etc.

Interestingly, this is even directly stated in-game in the Nintendo Switch version, which states "Wearing two or more of these badges further increases the damage taken." in the menu despite only one being obtainable.

The footage shows 98 of these badges being worn by modifying the game, turning a Goomba's 1-damage attack (and by extension every other damaging attack in the game) into a devastating attack dealing the maximum possible 99 damage (any attack that would deal 100 or more damage deals 99 damage instead).

Pratt: “I was in Yonkers trying to find the post office when some fat tuck italian stumbled out of a Starbucks and puked on my shoes. Fucking hate New York, this place is crawling with dagos.” Knowing about this now deleted tweet makes this satirical quote sound believable.
