Wow. So they're really going to do it and patch the demo in at some point huh? I feel like these are one of those wild dreams I had that I was assured would never come true, and now I don't know what's reality and fiction anymore. I need to go check if Megaman Legends 3 actually did come out on 3DS now.
I remember the 'cheat' code you typed in the menu of one of the Spyro games to get into a Crash demo. Would be cool to see something like that again!
Ugh this reminded me that I still have to redownload the game to just play that one bonus level.
A speedrunner of the Crash and Spyro series who is doing a lot of glitch hunting. He has done some TASes and definitely knows his stuff.

It's nothing ATM.
Putting in the OG Spyro 1 demo code in the title screen for NST (with Crash 3 selected) resulted in the selection cursor disappearing for no reason. We assumed this was just a glitch involving menus, but it's been confirmed to have been intentional.
In the OG Crash 3, inputting the Konami Code would boot a Spyro demo.
Doing it on N-Sane made the cursor disappear, but apparently there was more to it than we thought...

N.Sane Trilogy required PS4 4.55 to be extracted which was only hacked a few days ago, hence it being so late. I've also uploaded some raw voicelines including an unused one here.
I don't know whether it confirms a demo to be added, but, as I said there, I think it confirms the button code being intentionally added as opposed to being a bug like some people thought.

4.55 is open for everybody so this and many other games are able to be ripped apart.
Thanks! makes a lot more sense.
Again I see the game ackowledging the code entered but it could be entirely just what you see.
It's not a random code, it's the same one from the original games that would launch the demo for Spyro back on the PSX. Not only would it be a brilliant homage, but it would be incredible free marketing to embed a demo level from the current Spyro remake currently in production into every copy of N. Sane to notify fans that "another remake is on the way, check it out!"
That would be dope as hell. I do not know why people are so against it, lol.
I entered this code on day one when the trilogy came out, it certainly did something, as it would make a ding.
I hope we also get an HDR patch for the N.Sane Trilogy

The fact that the words SpyroDemo show up in a text string somewhere doesnt actually mean much. People name things for all sorts of reasons.
Now all the other evidence all but confirms that a game is coming IMO. This thing linked in the OP means nothing.

That could be an interesting (and awesome!) sales technique. I'm sure it'll sell a few more copies of the Crash remake if there's an early and exclusive demo of Spyro patched in. Plus it's a great nostalgic homage to the original games.
Would be nice to see, I was one of the first ones out there to find and upload a video of that demo code in the first place.
Heck someone else has already posted it here, if the Spyro Demo does go up, I will be sure to post a video playing the demo as well.

This was literally the first thing I did in the N. Sane Trilogy. I was happy enough the code did anything, but now it's straight-up called "SpyroDemo" in the code? I was already excited for the demo, but this is on a whole different level. I can't wait for this stealth update!
I have a feeling that people spoiled their E3 surprise. Activision doesn't even have a press conference at E3, so I can see them appearing at the Sony Conference and announcing a 20th anniversary game or collection and then telling Crash N.Sane owners that they can download the demo within N.Sane early, and then release a public demo later? does that sound plausible?
N. Sane Trilogy responds to the player inputting the code for the Spyro 1 demo in the original Crash Bandicoot: Warped, complete with the menu locking you into Warped in NST. It definitely seems like the demo's getting patched into the game when you input the code.
