That was actually mentioned in Nintendo Power volume 50, it's one of the most well-known and easy-to-perform video game glitches.

They also mentioned the Zelda 2 glitch where you could wrong-warp by jumping off the top of the screen and using the Fairy spell. You could get into a weird town that didn't exist, and if you left you were stuck in the middle of the ocean.

Oh good grief, that happened to me by accident once and I had no idea what was going on. I think I had to restart the game! Thank you for clearing up this mystery for eight-year-old me.

NBD, but I had Nintendo Power issue #1. It came because we registered the original NES super system bought from Sears. We were some lucky kids.
