Well not peach%, just "Allow 8-4 IL runs with peach or something" if we can trigger that without having the game to break

There is indeed an intended way to activate it :)

But is it hidden or is it just obvious and we never figured it out

Nice! Didn't want to give it away, since I saw it in the code.. Not as fun as figuring it out on your own.

Will we be allowed to run 8-4 IL with Peach?

Québec

Well, I tried the 1st thing that came through my mind, and it worked! Og gamers will know how to unlock her.

Well 8-4 IL is already done in a hacked version of SMB1, and this feature has existed since 5.5, so I can't see why not allow her.

Yeah I guess it's just a sprite change. I would love to see WR done with Peach lol.

The only hint I gave to some runners was "30 lives"

i'm just gonna say, it didn't work on nestopia for me, but it did work on fceux tho, i dunno why it doesn't work on nestopia.

Works on Nestopia for me.

For anybody that wants to go digging through the code to find it, it was silently added in the same commit that updated the faces on the intro screen.

Sweden

Hehe of course it is discovered through a bug :) The epitome of Pellsson ROM.

I'll just call it a feature and leave it in there :)

Full credit to https://www.romhacking.net/hacks/1229 from which I shamelessly ripped the sprites.
