Line 1:
{{trope}}
* In ''[[Batman: Arkham Asylum (Video Game)|Batman Arkham Asylum]]'', the audience participates in "Scarecrow" sequences in which Scarecrow injects Batman with terror gas that makes him see things. In one of these sequences, the audience is confronted with the screen that appears upon an in-game death, only to find out that it is part of the Scarecrow sequence.
* "[[Professor Layton and The Curious Village (Video Game)|Professor Layton and The Curious Village]]": Layton tells you how to move and save the game as if he knows you're there.
** "If you want to move, just tap on the shoe."
Line 69:
* The ''[[X-Men (Comic Book)|X-Men]]'' game for the [[Sega Genesis]] asked the player to "Reset the Computer" to finish the Danger Room level. With no in-game switches or controls to operate, usually the player would be stumped... as it turned out, it meant resetting the game console itself.
* ''[[Mario and Luigi Superstar Saga (Video Game)|Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga]]'' has a scene where Bowser is launched into the air, and lands on the "monitor" of the Game Boy Advance, leaving cracks and sliding off.

To comment on the fight's [[Giant Space Flea From Nowhere]] quality, he says: "Gwar har har har har har! What's a finale without a Bowser appearance, huh? A cruddy finale, that's what!"
Line 117:
*** The "Quick Jump" option (for those unfamiliar with the game/series), is simply an option that allows you to skip a part of an area that you have already completed, that may be tedious to get through.
* In ''[[Tales of Phantasia (Video Game)|Tales of Phantasia]]'', a soldier in the castle of the future talks about how lazy it is to use the same music for (the [[Time Travel|entire time]] taken in account) 150 years.
* ''[[Hotel Mario (Video Game)|Hotel Mario]]'' is full of these. "And YOU gotta help us!" [[Viewers
** Isn't that more like [[No Fourth Wall]]?
* Nina and Max from both ''Secret Files'' games sometimes break the fourth wall. Always humorous.
