"Fredbear and Friends" helped the Hypno Discs Work.

Now I had this thought while reawatching MatPat's FNaF Theories, and I realized something: Why don't more people talk about the TV show in FNaF 4, "Fredbear and Friends"? I mean aside from the 1983 date on the screen, it's been almost completely forgotten and pushed to the side. But I just thought of something. What if the show helps the Sound Illusion (Hypno) Discs, display their images? Now in the books we learn that the discs basically take blank animatronics and gives an image to them. However, where do these images come from? It's been noted that the mind can't naturally create a new face or image, and that it uses something you've already seen as inspiration. Now if this is the case for the characters, where are these images coming from? I mean you could say from posters or the buildings sign, but you don't FULLY pay attention to those normally. But something you would pay attention to, is the characters on a TV show. Now each of the main characters made an appearance on the show, so if the show was a huge hit and was broadcasted nationwide, that would mean almost every kid or even teen in the states would have those characters looks and designs in their memories. Now cut to when the Illusion Discs are being used. The characters have had enough time to become known and recognizable, and the company is spreading, with new Pizzerias being opened at a rapid pace. Now the company can't afford to make new animatronics that fast, so William Afton makes blank Animatronics, and attaches the Illusion Discs to them, so now everyone will see the characters that the customers know and love! Saving money, and eventually letting him add on different parts to allow him to capture children, and their Remnant. Heck, this can even be explained for new animatronics. When a new character is pitched, Afton or Henry will show a picture of the character, and when they present the animatronics, the character designs are already in their mind. Now most likely, these characters would make their way into promo images, commercials, and of course, the show. Now like I said, the mind will sometimes only use the image they saw as inspiration, and their seems to be hard evidence that Afton can manipulate the discs to see certain things, especially from FNaF 4, with how Mikey "Cry Baby" Afton seeing the iconic characters in a horrific, nightmare style. It's the designs from the show and Pizzeria, but made to seem frightening and hellish. Exactly what William wanted in order to keep his son away from the place. Now who's to say that he hasn't done this before? I mean if he's found some way to control how people perceive the way they look, this can open a whole new realm of possibilities we hadn't thought of. Now of course, this deception doesn't apply to FNaF 3 Springtrap, The OG Puppet from FNaF 2 and 3, and Golden Freddy. But the rest are very likely to have this. Even variations of The Puppet and Springtrap we see. But in the end, that's just a Theory.

A GAME THEORY!
