Seth Rogen shares 30-year old Nintendo secret and Internet loses its mind

Seth Rogen may have just broken the internet.

The Vancouver funnyman sent out a Tweet on Monday morning, revealing a secret about the classic 1984 Nintendo game, Duck Hunt, and the internet reacted by having its collective mind blown.

Apparently in the classic light-gun shooter game, the second player controller could control which direction the doomed ducks could fly in.

Hot tip that’s 25 years late but I didn’t have Twitter back then: in Duck Hunt on Nintendo, the second player controller controlled the duck.

Me and my sister found this out because I sat on the controller by accident and the duck kept flying to the top right corner.

The Internet, as well as Rogen’s celebrity friends, took to Twitter to respond to the video game revelation and there’s no turning back now.

This cannot be. This. Cannot. Be.

I did not come on Twitter to have my mind blown today. I feel like my life is a lie. What’s next, if you turn the NES upside down, it shoots money out when you beat Mega Man II?

OMG, It’s true! https://t.co/Df48A4mLd3 pic.twitter.com/NLJDt5BRBA

Thanks to Seth, it’s no longer Nintendo’s best kept secret and our lives may never be the same.
