*Although the Headless Snowman was an extremely minor character in his few appearances, he got some publicity in the form of a [[Nintendo Power]] joke published around the time of the main circulation of the [[List of rumors and urban legends about Mario#Luigi in Super Mario 64 .2F .22L is real 2401.22|"L is Real 2401" ''Super Mario 64'' rumors]]. In Volume 107 of Nintendo Power, a Luigi 64 article is present where [[Nintendo]] states that angry [[Luigi]] fans had been campaigning to have the green-clad plumber in his very own game, and their apparent response was to create a hoax upcoming game known as '''''Headless Snowman 64'''''. This game was apparently to be made to satisfy lovers of the second bananas by featuring a ridiculous cast of both well-known and obscure characters (that weren't Luigi) from [[Samus Aran]] to "random audience members from ''Super Punch-Out!!''" to the Headless Snowman himself. Additionally, the game would supposedly contain some non-Nintendo characters such as "one of the civilian women in ''GoldenEye 007''" (in the mistaken belief that her name is Luigi), "that bald guy from ''Blast Corps''" and "the bikini woman in ''Cruis'n USA''". Humorously, this never-made game wasn't going to feature [[Luigi]].
