10 Video Games That KNEW You'd Try To Cheat

If you've ever played Animal Crossing, chances are you've had a few run-ins with Mr. Resetti. The annoying mole-man will frequently show up outside your house and rant at you about resetting your game, and this, literally, is the only purpose he serves.

But he doesn't go all "moral high ground" on you for no good reason. If you shut off your game without saving it, Resetti will be waiting for you when you load back in, ready to hit you with another one of his speeches. So what's so bad about not saving your game, and why did Nintendo program in a whole character just to counter it?

Well, Animal Crossing players can use an exploit wherein they quit the game, change the console's clock, and load back in, which causes the stock at Tom Nook's store to change. Nintendo didn't want players cheating the system in this way, so they put Resetti in the game as a way to make them feel bad for their actions.

The more times you reset, the more agitated Resetti will become. At one point, he'll even tell you to go to bed early, and that staying up late is "for chumps." He's insanely annoying, but then again, that's kinda the point.
