So, I've been watching a lot of Stryder7x's videos on YouTube, specifically his paper Mario glitches and exploits of the game. Does anyone have other channels that cover the mechanics and glitches of retro games?

That kind of stuff is so specialized that it's on a game-by-game basis. Watch speed runners.

That's what makes it fun though.
I wish every game had its own 'pannenkoek'.

Pretty much every game that isn't complete shit or totally broken has a speedrun posted. If they're good enough to be really competitive usually some glitches get discovered pretty fast.

They do it they just don't usually explain it, lest they help other speedrunners beat them but if you study their runs you'll see them doing it.

Show me a speedrunner that talks about the mechanics behind the characters' blinking.

Blinking isn't a glitch or an exploit so it's off topic for the thread and moving the goal posts. I'm not arguing that The N64s first and second party 3D platformers haven't been exhaustively scrutinized I'm saying there are a lot more games out there to learn about glitches in, which I think is what OP was asking.

Blinking is a mechanic, and as the video shows it's pretty clearly defined and not just a random thing.

It's an aesthetic
