Where there are people, there will be history, and where there is history, there will be stories. For the game industry, the footprints and developed works of large and small game companies always hide some details or secrets that have been left out by people.

Did You Know Gaming (DYKG for short) is a channel dedicated to digging into the secret history of games. Since 2012, they have revealed anecdotes and anecdotes behind all kinds of games, and Nintendo games are frequent visitors to their topics.

Last October, they released an archaeological video about the Legend of Zelda series, revealing a lost Zelda game to viewers, but about two months later, the video was forced off the shelves after receiving a copyright warning from Nintendo. Nintendo's operation instead aroused people's curiosity about the original video.

The story in the video originated from Nintendo's Retro studio, which is best known for its "Mitrod" (also translated as "Galactic Warrior") series, and two decades ago, they tried to develop a Zelda game called "Hero of Hailaru," but Nintendo rejected the proposal.

According to the video description, DYKG got the original design document for Hero Hailar by connecting with former Retro employees. After the "final Fantasy Strategic Edition Advance" released in 2003 was well received, Retro Studios hoped to create a game of the same style for the NDS console, and the theme would be Nintendo's signature Zelda Legend.

The background of the final Fantasy Strategic Advance game is set a hundred years ago. Link and three heroes work together to defeat Gennon and seal it in a magic book. In order to prevent Gennon's resurrection, they spread the pages and hide them everywhere.

The three heroes correspond to the "strength", "courage" and "wisdom" of triangular forces, respectively, and a hundred years later, a teenager stumbled on the magic book. He was attracted by the stories of the heroes in the book. In order to piece together the complete story, the teenager began to collect pages, but he was unaware of the danger of doing so.

In order to make the game significantly different from the reference game, Heroes of Hailaru does not use the traditional RPG upgrade system, but focuses on exploration, environmental decryption and collection of items.

Using the power of different elements of heroes to decrypt and build two interacting worlds for this game-- the past of heroes and the present of teenagers in the book, when teenagers decipher and hunt for treasure in their own world, he can gradually unlock the stories of heroes, or provide gain to heroes, and when the perspective changes to the book, players can also manipulate the three heroes to fight and decrypt. And have an impact on the real world of teenagers.

The idea was complete, and there was something interesting about it, and after the video was taken off the shelves, DYKG did not choose to compromise, submitted a complaint to Youtube, and three weeks later, the video was magically restored to the shelves.

"you beat Nintendo?" Although Nintendo has not taken any other action so far, it seems that DYKG has won for the time being, but perhaps, as in the past, viewers can only see the tip of the iceberg and cannot understand Nintendo's considerations, just as the disappearance of this research video may be puzzling, but now its return is also somewhat intriguing.

However, apart from conspiracy theories such as "dark secrets hidden by Nintendo", the only impact so far may be that after the video has been restored, many people have come one after another, and the video has quickly gained tens of thousands of views.
