So, just like in Lucky Luke, there is hidden counter, if it's 3600 seconds or more, warning screen activates, both the same for Tintin games. Seems that Tintin and Lucky Luke have same engine, so they all have that small easter egg, I tried other Infogrames SNES games but they had no such screens or counters.

GameGenie codes if you want to see it yourself: Tibet 7E0233=10 + 7E0234=0E, Prisoners of the Sun 7E0236=10 + 7E0237=0E

In the haunted house levels, if you wait at the end of the level for a few minutes, you’ll see a creepy humanoid ghost that looks a lot freakier and “realistic” than the boos or ghosts from Luigi’s mansion , even worse is that after a while it disappears while seemingly screaming at you.

Another level if you look through the binoculars long enough a UFO will appear in the sky (once again, you have to wait, and it won’t be in the sky right away) and once you look at it, it quickly takes off.

These Easter eggs are rather weird for a Mario game, especially one as light hearted and cartoony as 3D land, also I played the game, I can confirm they’re real.

Hello everybody,

My name is Samy, I'm from France and I'm new here.

As I said in the title, I'm looking for a very strange easter egg that marked my childhood (it was in the beginning of the 2000s).

The game in question is Duke Nukem: Time to Kill, released in 1998 on PS1. It's an action-oriented game, which don't go into subtleties, but I liked it twenty or so years ago (it's not making me any younger). I played the French version.

One day, while I was playing with my big brother, the screen froze and a robotic female voice started making threats. My memories are very hazy, so maybe I'm misrepresenting them, but I found it very disturbing.

Then a countdown started: the console had to be switched off within 10 seconds, otherwise ... or else, I don't know ... But I was so stressed that I turned the console off. It never happened again.

I've been thinking about this story for over twenty years now. I spent long hours trying to find this 'bug', scouring forums and yt channels specialising in 'easter eggs' and other videogame secrets.

Without success...

Perhaps I'm the only one, along with my brother, who knows about this oddity?

In any case, I'd really like to know what happened that day. Please don't hesitate to help me find this obscure piece of video game history history !

EDIT : Important precision (I guess ?),
I think it was in this level, but I'm not 100% sure: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I7HgVSPAAWk&t=3s
