EB Walk Through Stairs Glitch

I noticed something about this. If you walk through walls in EB, and you go to Giygas’ lair, you automatically become robots. Apparently it doesn’t work that way in Mother 2. Or maybe I’m wrong. Care to clarify, anyone?

I think if you found the walk through walls code for Mother 2, it’d act the same way. This glitch is different from the code though, so that’s probably why it acts differently. I bet if you tried this glitch with EB, it’d do the same as in the video.

Wow, that’s cool.

Cool, this could make for some interesting things.

holy crap. thats sweet

This is a straaange glitch. I would probably use it to skip Peaceful Rest Valley next time I play Earthbound, if I’m not lazy to try it.

I’ve GOT to try this! 😀

lol, they’re Moon-walking!

My, MOTHER2 is one of the most glitchied games I ever saw.

Was there a testing sequence in the development?
It’s still fun to see all those things like Double enemy, Circus Tent and Stair glitches

Yes, see here. But it’s not like this kind of stuff is stuff you would think to try. It took 15 years for this one glitch to be discovered, so I’d say they did a pretty good job.

Cool, I need to try this out for speedrun. 😛

Wow! Someone finally managed to do it. I’m glad to know I’m not crazy and imagined this happening. Lol. It’s been so long that it’s hard to remember.

But when I had this happen to me, I don’t remember using healing. As soon as the warning popped up, Ness went straight instead of up the stairs. Does you have to use healing or is it just used because it’s annoying having the screen flash all the time?

Yeah, you don’t need healing, the guy was just healing her because it was annoying or because he didn’t want her to die or something.

Wow, This looks cool. I’m going to try this out on my next run through EarthBound.

This looks awesome, I’ve got to try this, does it work in Mother 1+2?

It just goes to show you that glitches are still found in games no matter how old it is!

*they are.

If you need stairs proper and not just an escalator to pull it off, the earliest I can think of would be the underground tunnel in Threed. It’d be easy to get poisoned, too, thanks to nearby Zombie Dogs and their angry fangs!

Now, if you’re standing on stairs when that message happens (I think it takes really precise timing), you can walk through the stairs after the message goes away. The game then acts like it does when you use the Walk Through Walls cheat code.

I am confused on this part, does it mean it takes precise timing to get to the stairs, or precise timing pressing the buttons, or what?

You can use the walk through walls code to also access fourside in a complete moonside pallete

I tried to do the walk through walls glitch in the video by getting a cold and going up escalators, and it didn’t work. I am not sure if it was the cold, or the escalators, but it didn’t work.

I doubt it works with escalators, as they’re programmed completely differently.

So THAT’S how Giygas and his followers travel through time without having to become robots!

Damn it, this doesn’t work on MOTHER 1+2.

It would work on escalators if they didn’t pull you down right away, you see it get glitchy when you try to do it on them.

WALK THROUGH WALLS: EASY WAY
Get an enemy that poisons you up to stairs. When you get poisoned, go to the stairs and stay there until the message shows up.

It works when I do it, but if I try to go somewhere, it just has a blue background, it seems like summers (the place I did the glitch is the only place that you can see stuff in.

never mind I just didn’t read the post right. For people that haven’t been able to do it, try to get exactly at the top or bottom step. It’s impossible, the game will force you to move off it. that’s when you need the warning to come up.

Ness can MOONWALK!??!?!
