SM64 Exposed Messages

By James S.

On this page I cover the messages displayed in the game such as when talking to certain objects.

Game Messages

All values are in hex.

The game displays a message by writing the message number to the message type variable (16-bit) as listed below for the different versions of the game:

PAL 802FD644

NTSC (USA) 80331484

The following are the message values as used by the game and a brief summary of the message. The value FFFF is used to mean no message. Note that if you trigger the message yourself (such as by using a Gameshark code) you can still move Mario while the message is displayed but jumping, etc will move onto the next part of or end the message.

0000 Bob-omb Battlefield introduction.
