Did you ever use the hint line?
>>12899227nope. not from NA
>>12899227That's not the Nintendo hotline.
>>12899227No, I had access to the internet in my high school by the time I owned a Playstation. I did, however, call the Nintendo Power hotline after becoming stuck on "Link's Awakening" for Gameboy. >First defeat the imprisoned Pols Voice, last Stalfos.They knew what they were doing. Probably raked in an extra $200,000 in hotline calls and magazine sales from that room alone.
>>12899227I called one asking for help about finding the last fortune doll in Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon, I don't really remember how it went other than he couldn't help me since he didn't know which ones I'd gotten already, I guess I figured there might be one everyone misses or something.
>>12900559This is in bongland btw and I have no idea who I called, something out of the pages of N64 Magazine
>>12899227no but i used to call 1-800-BIG-TITS from payphones and listen to the intro message
Once with the Nintendo one. I forgot to give Frogfucius the Cricket Pie, so I was stuck in Marrymore.It was a common question they got, apparently. At least that's what I remember him saying (or maybe it was just that he instantly knew the problem).
>>12899227>Did you ever use the hint line?Never. But I would've liked working as the guy who answers the phone there.
>>12899227>Did you ever use the hint line?no. i was actually good at games.>>12903672>this is *yawn* nintendo hotline. my name is.. what is it again.. steve? ah. yeah, hello? >kid: my name?>no i mean .. oh never mind. what can i *yawning gets louder and more obnoxious* do for you?>kid: i am having trouble completing zelda>yeah no problem! you do .. uhh. shit.. i mean. let me check..>*10 minutes of silence*>*sound of someone smoking bongs in the background*>call endssomething like this i think
>>12899227Yeah for N64 and GB Zelda games and I remember calling them just to ask how they knew all this stuff. Also got some nice ASMR tingles from the calls.
>>12904035I could never have called one from Spain, but that's exactly how I imagined it would go.
>>12904042I'm in Australia. These corporations opened up their own hotlines here under insane premium 1902-xxx-xxx numbers that averaged between $1 to $2 a minute depending on the business. adult lines used to go up as high as $5 a minute.. something fucking stupid like that. crazy times. my parents would kill me if i called a 1902 number but apparently many parents gave no fucks and let their kids go wild.
