And then Nintendo Ninjas break into his house for playing on an emulator.
Nope, he's playing with original hardware, the screen shot is a reference to what was a speed running bounty. There was a streamer playing that part of Super Mario 64 and he glitched straight up, if it could be repeated it would be a great time save for speed running. After years of investigation the community decided that it was caused by a bit flip probably caused by cosmic radiation. You can't get that bit flip on an emulator.
Hey so the cosmic ray thing was a really popular meme but the glitch was probably just a crooked cartidge. It's funny to imagine a cosmic ray doing this but the odds are so low as to be functionally impossible, and this kind of glitch can happen with dirty or loose connections.
