We've covered modder Waikuteru a fair... few... times... here on Nintendo Life, and that's largely because the mods they make and the secrets they discover are always worth a look.
Today's feature is Waikuteru's recreation of the Breath of the Wild "MarioClubTestDungeon", an area that only exists in the text files of the game. Having dug into said files, Waikuteru was able to figure out which items, weapons, and foods were placed into the debug room - a room that usually exists for testing and checking various in-game features - and create something that might look like the real thing.
Sadly, the room has one massive bug. But it's the good kind of bug: a giant one that serves as the boss! With just one shot from a bow, the bug is fixed. If only programming were that easy.
Waikuteru isn't done yet, though. While making the MarioClubTestDungeon, they made an interesting discovery of "something really exciting"... but we don't know what it is yet. Maybe it's a version of BOTW where you can play as Epona? That's all we've ever wanted.

All my efforts to get the savage lynel weapons are here... they are just layed out for you. You don't need to take damage. You just pick em up. Screw you game!
Yeah... that boss was terrifying... ^^
I am just about to put it on now.
I'm on my 2nd playthrough, technically 3rd but I never really got far with the 2nd one, despite my save file saying I played it for 100 hours. When I first played it on Wii U, I logged well over 300 hours without ever actually making it to the castle, so I've obviously never completed it. I was enjoying it so much, I didn't want it to end, so aimed to collect as much a possible before making my way there. But then Splatoon 2 came out and I couldn't resist the Switch any longer. My Wii U has never been turned on since. So I bought BOTW again, along with the DLC but I couldn't get into it in the same way as before. It was too soon. Now though, a good period of time has passed and I'm absolutely loving the game. This time I will go to the castle, I will complete the game and DLC and I will finally get the chance to ride that motorbike thing.
@OorWullie Cool! Have fun!
Yes, but is he Error?
I like how the plants are growing in solid concrete!
I just wanna know what he is playing on the graphics are so good ☺ on my TV is nothing like that 😭😭
Does anyone remember the debug room from wind waker? It was much easier to access with a action replay compared to now
Hello Hello.
I am thinking of picking up a Zelda game on my switch. This is my first time playing Zelda in my whole life.
Which one should I start first.
BOTW or Link's Awakening remake
@BigBoo PC emulator that enhances things.
@anoyonmus they are both quite different games. If you have lots of time to get into a game definitely go for Breath of the Wild. It is amazingly immersive - it took a little while for that to happen for me but it eventually ‘clicked’ - I completed the final boss and haven’t been back since but want to. I just haven’t found the right time to come back!
@anoyonmus cant go wrong with either but botw is on another level
@OorWullie I won't spoil it, but finishing the game actually makes no difference to your potential for continued enjoyment from it.
My son has put significantly longer into the game since 'completing it' than he did before facing Ganon!
