Hhidaka

You all know that game for the Gamecube called Super Smash Bros. Melee, right? The fighting game with all of the Nintendo characters (Mario, Fox, Kirby, Ganondorf, etc.)? Well, you can find all of the scripts, models, textures, and files in the game if you can access the files using a program.

One script, called "Char.txt," contains all of the variables and move sets for the in-game characters. Each character has a TXT file that refers to their models, too, in a folder called "Char".

In order to add my texture hacks, I needed to copy all of the files to my computer. While copying, I noticed there were 26 items, but I was sure there were only 25 characters. To make sure, I explored the filenames. All of the normal files were there; there was Cfalcon, falco, Dkong...then I came across Hhidaka.

I opened the file and noticed his variable number happened to be "666". I assumed they must have randomly generated the numbers, otherwise it'd have been between 1-26. His texture file was located in "E:\SSBM\textures\Char\modeltexture\Hhidaka.

The contents of the folder were quite disturbing. What I saw was a PNG file of a Japanese girl dressed like a hooker. She had been stabbed and mutilated to the extreme, especially at her stomach; it was cut clean. It was called "Hhidaka.png" and was the main model texture.

I absolutely couldn't believe my eyes. Why the hell would that be on the disc?

I eventually remembered that I had bought this used from a flea market. It had no instruction booklet; it was replaced by what I thought might have been cheat codes or a walkthrough written on a sheet of printer paper.

I got out the case and unfolded the "cheat codes". Instead of cheats, I saw some Japanese writing. I couldn't translate it at the time, so I went back to the computer. I checked the script and saw that Hhidaka was a hidden character. To unlock him, you had to (from what I understood) KO the purple-colored Peach four times in a row without taking damage, while playing Ganondorf.

I found it odd, but I ended up doing it. After KOing Peach for the fourth time, it went to the new character screen. Instead of a battle, it showed a video of a Japanese woman who murmured things in Japanese. A knife was in her eye.

Because my parents were home, I quickly turned the volume down and waited. I did not dare to look full on, but I did peek every now and then. It went on for four minutes until the sound of a gunshot rang out and the woman's head jerked back. Then it cut to black.

It displayed two things on the screen: "Hiroki Hidaka's taste for blood shall be quenched!" and "You have gotten the HH trophy". I looked in the trophies, but found there wasn't an actual trophy displayed. The description was still there, though. It said, "FINDING THIS WAS YOUR MISTAKE."

At this point, my Gamecube restarted itself and went to the normal SSBM menu. There wasn't any music or sound, now that I think about it, but I began a match. I chose the thumbnail-less Hiroki Hidaka and pitted myself against Kirby. Corneria was the stage. Nothing happened for a moment before text popped up on the screen that said "FINDING THIS WAS YOUR MISTAKE". My finger immediately went for the power button.

I must have pressed reset instead, as the game didn't shut off. I could hear the disc spinning rapidly, as if trying to play Crysis 2 on a laptop. The TV started displaying the same Japanese woman with the knife in her eye, but instead it was a still image. There was a caption that said "Play as Hidaka and this could be you".

I later found out the Japanese text on that paper that came in the game's case translated to the exact same words and was even signed by Hidaka. It turns out he's a Japanese serial killer who was executed on December 25, 2006. That was the same Christmas I bought the game.

  2. For the love of god! Stop doing these awful video game pastas! They are ll just lame rip offs of the Ben Drowned one, and that one wasn't that good either!

    1. Fuck off, this one wasn't anything like Ben. Ben's was stupid and didn't have any consistancy. This one goes into deep detail and is plausable. I don't mean to troll you, just pointing out that you're comparing an apple to a supercomputer :-)

    2. I hate to break it to you but this creepypasta sucked just as much. And on the note of "deep detail" and "plausible", seriously? For one thing, the shitty Ben one was so, so fucking long it went into too MUCH detail. Second, this one didn't go into any more detail than "this is the game and this is the image and this is when it all started." And seriously, plausible? It's plausible that the ghost of a Japanese serial killer is haunting a video game? You've gotta be fucking kidding me.

    3. HAte to break it to BOTH of you, but this paticular pasta doesn't give me nightmares (as if I even had dreams, which I don't) EVERY SINGLE FUCKING TIME I THINK ABOUT IT, like the fucking mouth of truth. So please shut the fuck up. Because prosecutors will be violated.

  3. Agreed on the Rip-Offs... but as long as they're good it is fine. However this was not good.
    Especially the mid part: I eventually remembered... yeah like hell you do >_>. Also i didn't feel anything while reading it, it was just like : so what, not like anything is about to happen.

    P.S. : Everyone can take the name of a serial killer after they died and add a story around it (@ mister i shat brix)

  8. It's not believable at all, but I enjoyed reading it. It reminds me of when I used to search the internet for any SSBM rumors I could find.

    One thing though, the serial killer's name is Hiroaki, not Hiroki. Note the "a".

  10. Can you guys stop arguing?
    Not everyone likes the same thing, so suck it up.
    If it didn't do anything for you, that's fine. Same goes for those who found this entertaining.

    In my opinion, I find this one to be entertaining.
    It's not exactly frightening, but it does provide a small chuckle.

    1. Ganondorf = Evil
      Evil = HH
      No damage run = Murder without hurting the killer-self
      Why he play "hacked SSBM" anyway?
      That game hacked by HH!
      You know,he hacked the whole game before you,next player of THAT SSBM!

  14. Little cliche with several of the devices (do something obscure in a game and something weird happens, pick up shady copy of game from someone), but reasonably well executed.

    ReplyDelete
  15. OK, but the part, and I quote, "I could hear the disc spinning rapidly, as if trying to play Crysis 2 on a laptop." killed it. But Christ, I will never fucking do this.

    Nice, now my childhood with SSBM is killed. Turns out that Google or Wikipedia, doesn't find any results.

  16. It had promise. As soon as '666' came up it just went down hill. Also the shady flea market buy was too cliché. With a little more creativity this could be pretty good.

    I have to give props for the picture though, good job on that!

  17. The hand-written note seems like it was Google Translated from English; 再生する means play, but in the sense of playing back a recording, not playing a video game.

    3/5

  24. Okay, so I've read this. So far, you tried your best, Creepypastas are quite interesting, if bored, try it out, if not, heck, it's a story after all.
    But, euhh, side-notes, since I played Melee so many times... If you mean the purple-colored Fighting wireframe female characters, those are Zelda's. You might will notice it when it does a down smash...
    My opinion about the story, yeah, sorry, I find it somewhat cliche like some others here, but still, I enjoyed reading it. :)
    And I'm quite laughing to the people who just flip tables because "it's a ripoff", "this sucks balls" or for w/e reason... They need to think about to even begin with a story, without insulting the writers.
    So in general (my opinion): Story is okay, needs some small corrections and variation in some scenes, then it's actually a quite interesting story. :D
