What Happens if you Unplug your Controller in the Mystery Man's room in Undertale?



If you disconnect the controller in the Xbox version of Undertale, there’s a fun easter egg. But what happens if you disconnect the controller in the Mysteryman room? That is to say… what happens if you disconnect the controller near Gaster?

Is it even possible to reach Gaster in the xbox version to find out?

  1. Imagine this happened instead.

    Finally gets the gray door
    Disconnects controller next to the door only for a normal message*
    Goes inside the Gaster room and disconnects controller for the same result
    Talks to Gaster, waits for him to completely disappear, and disconnects controller

    "No Controller Connected."
    "Never gonna give you up."

  2. Explaining to my gf why bread uses TTS and she said to me “maybe they’re a celebrity. Like maybe they’re scarjo” and now I can’t stop thinking of Scarlet Johansson sitting down and logging into the half bread chaos YouTube channel to make undertale and deltarune theories

  3. What would be actual worst is if there WAS a random secret controller message in the mystery man room but there's a further 1 in x chance for it to display.

  4. Man making theory videos looks so fun but also like the sheer gut punch it might be if you mess up on something and your entire theory is wrong, or if someone else debunks it, I'd feel so embarrassed lol

  5. I wonder if a game is required to have a controller disconnected message programmed into it in order for it to pass Microsoft's Xbox certification checks that all Xbox games need to go through before they are allowed to be released?

  6. How is it that still, after all these years I find out about stuff about this game I haven't known about yet. The controller easter egg completely went over my head for years. I still wonder if Toby left more weird stuff in the console versions of the game since he'd know we can't dig through those easily.

  7. Imagine if there WAS a secret message, but it just had a low chance of appearing. Like it replaces the "No Controlli is Conoli" message. And it might just be as simple as

    Controller disconected from the universe
    pleace reconnect to the universe.

  8. Having 1 in 1000 odds is different from "you'll probably get it in 1000 tries." You only have about a 65% chance of getting it after 1000 attempts. For something like an 80-90% chance it would require between 2000 and 2500 attempts

    20 years from now we'll discover there actually is a mystery man controller easter egg, but in order to trigger it you have to unplug your controller on the 666th frame after entering the room.

  10. Not sure if this is any help, but aside from “skin,” it seems to be saying the body parts in the same order you’d say them in hangman. That is to say, hang man

  11. Just a thing I did at some point, not sure if it helps or means anything.

    So I wanted to transfer savefiles from my Xbox version of Celeste to my console, and I managed to pull it off by taking and renaming a file in the corresponding directory after using the Xbox app on windows and the Microsoft store to download the app and sync save data. Although Im not 100% sure if this can work beyond savefiles, this could make certain files accessable to edit on PC, although likely the file name will need to be remembered or written down.

    It's likely not to be useful but it's something I guess.

  12. It's not "little finger" because ゆ pokes over the top. ゅ isn't the same, it comes after certain characters to change the sound (e.g. し/shi + ゅ/little yu = "shu") and doesn't stand on its own. In katakana, it works, but I still think "little finger" is unlikely lol.

    The issue with this is that ALL the body parts are spelled in katakana regardless of whether it's normally spelled with hiragana or not–except for body, "どうたい". This means it's likely a normally-hiragana word spelled in katakana, or a katakana word.

    Some possibilities are:
    テアシ (teashi; hands and feet)
    ショウ (shou; form/shape)
    ファー (faa; fur)
    ココロ (kokoro; mind/heart/spirit)
    シソウ (shisou; thoughts)
    ココチ (kokochi; feelings)
