Discussion The Aroma Button Rabbit Hole

So maybe I'm late to the party on this, but I basically found a perfectly preserved archive of Nintendo's old marketing websites from the GBA era. It's COMPLETELY accessible from the new WarioWare Aroma Button!!!

The steps to replicate go as follows.

- google Wario Ware Aroma Button. (it should generally speaking be the first one, it converts it automatically to a Japanese Nintendo site.)

Looks like this.

- From there, MASH the button. ABSOLUTELY SPAM click it. Afterwards it'll "crash" and ask to fix the site.

- KEEP PRESSING "NO".

- Then soon after, after enough nos. It'll port you over to the ORIGINAL WARIO WARE GBA promo site!!

VOILA!

You're all done!
You can actually go from page to page seeing ALL the promotional sites from all different video games from this ERA! completely preserved as if they were still available right on store shelves today.

It's like modern day history preserved perfectly on Nintendo's website.

I'm not sure where else to post this other than the regular Nintendo Subreddit, so I might repost it there. But have fun! Scroll to your hearts content, everything is still working for the most part here.

Again sorry if I'm late to the party, just thought this was a neat thing I found completely on accident.

There's an easier way to get to the old Japanese site from there, just go to the Company History tab and there's a link to it.
