You sir suck.

It looks like a Kid Icarus password, I could be wrong.

That's a NES Metroid password.

And Masterdan, why don't you have a try and see if it's a joke? And "fail" has been popularized by 4chan, mind you...

Sure enough, it was used sparingly before them, but the wide-spread use of it on the internet comes from them.

Is that really a password? Hahaha, even before it came into existence 4chan was influencing the digital world.

I still can't connect to 4chan for some reason.

I heard it was down, due to attacks of some sort.

Apparently, 4chan got DDoS'd. This has been confirmed on 420chan's /b/.

Ah, I guess that makes sense. Also ED isn't working for me either.

So what does the password do?
I don't have the original Metroid, so I can't see

I just tried it, and it started me at Tourian with 30 health, Ice Beam, and over 240 missiles. :(
