ABN_EHSHF, Wii cryptologist and a plumber's worst nightmare
Kryss864 Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 take the writer's signed name, ABN_EHSHF, and set it to the NOA RUFUS on the book cover, and then line up the alphabet so that A=N, B=O, N=A, etc. Then use this code over the capital letters in the message, and you get: "howdy pardners way to crack the code but youll have to wait to find out about wii wont you" .......
AshMat Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Well, 9i notced a lot of random capitals, the ones in bold were at the beggining of words, so they might not count: U L N E A R E F N L G B G U R B Q R O H L B H V Y Y U N I R G B N V G G B S V A B H G N O G J V V J G L B H Those could mean somethin g, they jsut stuck out..
Pestneb Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 maybe there'll be more articles using this code on the site, perhaps actually revealing information? doubt it but who knows
Patch Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 take the writer's signed name, ABN_EHSHF, and set it to the NOA RUFUS on the book cover, and then line up the alphabet so that A=N, B=O, N=A, etc. *Applauds* Well done sir.
Ninty 182 Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Hehe... Da Vinco Code... Luigi Code Wow, Sherlock Holmes has stepped into our midst
DCK Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 If you take out the capitals and shift them 13 places in the alphabet you'll get: "Howdy pardners, way to crack the code but you will have to wait to find out about Wii" and then some letters I couldn't be bothered with. Nothing it is...
ShadowV7 Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 It's really to taunt us,I read that earlier on and I hope for a little clue about Wii
spirited away Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Four days, quit bitchin' :p The days go slow with Sats, 4 days only i spose
Tellyn Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 They could have put ONE hint in there that won't make sense till E3.
spirited away Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 They could have put ONE hint in there that won't make sense till E3. Quit bitching, only 4 days :wink:
Tellyn Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 Point made. But I am not BITCHING, I am TWITCHING. This wait for three Zelda games, two consoles (DS Lite and Wii), DS games and Wii launch games has made me develop a twitch. Seriously, it's not funny.
ShadowV7 Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 So much is expected of this E3,just don't get your hopes up so high or it will just be another E3 05.But I can't help myslelf i'm looking forward to it.
mario_jr Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 To me its like 3 days who cares, how many months untill we will actually get to get one in our hands?
DiemetriX Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 This may or may not be a hint towards a Luigi Wii game.
pedrocasilva Posted May 4, 2006 Posted May 4, 2006 If you take out the capitals and shift them 13 places in the alphabet you'll get: "Howdy pardners, way to crack the code but you will have to wait to find out about Wii" and then some letters I couldn't be bothered with. Nothing it is... yeah it's in Kotaku too:-> http://www.kotaku.com/gaming/wii/the-luigi-code-171518.php Aparently he used some encription method called "ROT13" or something
Raven Posted May 5, 2006 Author Posted May 5, 2006 They could have put ONE hint in there that won't make sense till E3. maybe they have.... maybe, just maybe, the 3rd secret is a cowboy expansion.......
Flunx Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 Aparently he used some encription method called "ROT13" or something http://www.rot13.com
Jamba Posted May 5, 2006 Posted May 5, 2006 From what I remember ROT13 is just a technical description for a code using two alphabet discs. Just rotate 13 places.
spaceroller Posted May 9, 2006 Posted May 9, 2006 sorry for more speculating but what if the luigi code wasn't what we thought it was, what if the code was in the name NOA RUFUS? My theory on this is, Nintendo Of America Right Undulating Frequency User Sine If anyone else has checked up on the 3d theory these words seemed to pop up in several of the light blue optics stuff? I know its just me hoping that Nintendo could actually force a revolution on a massive scale and actually change everything.
