I'm skeptical that both a 1 error and a 9 error occurring at once would cause a "91 error". I think what is more likely that other random text ends up appearing before the error name, resulting in a 1 error actually being called a "91 error". Can anyone with more knowledge on the subject confirm or add to this? --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:52, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

== Do these really exist? ==
I've been looking through the disassembly again, and I've yet to find a single chunk of code that inserts this chunk of text into a stream intentionally. The string "ERROR." is mapped to the character code 0 in the text box display routines, and it's more likely that the appearance of this message is totally random in glitch situations and only appears because it's a predefined string mapped to a relatively common value. If anything, it may have been used in development, but it doesn't appear to be used anymore. --[[User:FSX|FSX]] ([[User talk:FSX|talk]]) 18:58, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
