Super Mario FX
I was moving and went to check all my belongings, deciding what to keep and what to trash. In the back of my room, I had a box. The box was full of CD-ROMs of stuff from over 10 years ago. The CDs were full of content from the internet, links, HTML files from downloaded webpages, ROMs, text files. I looked at the text file and saw this at the beginning.

Of course, it was from my time on the Nintendo Prototype Forums, back when I was called BooHooToYou. I remember how, at the end of my time there, I met someone named, "PokemonNerd" who found a prototype cart for the Super Nintendo. He did all sorts of things with it, and was about to email me the ROM file, but left the forums and since I had a friend at Google, and he recognized the linked email for his account, he told me that the use logs were null after December 6, 2005. Satoru Iwata's birthday.

The official police statement talked about how they were sorry about someone take his own life. I have searched for the cart, but he destroyed it. I will always wonder what resided on that cart: perhaps all the problems we have today.
