I did not know how to reload prior to completely emptying your guns magazine (where a reload would happen automatically) until after I had completely finished Resident Evil 4. I learned how to do this in the middle of my second playthrough.

Not knowing how to get off the bike in Ruby and Sapphire. Took me weeks to get off my bike next to the Kecleon shadow right next to the ladder and the gym and even then, I needed help.
'Course, I was at most 7 or 8 then.

In Red Alert 2, I had no idea you could scroll faster by holding down the right mouse button and then moving the cursor in the direction you wanted to move. I've been playing this game at least a few times a month for just about a damn decade now, and I only just discovered this about a week ago.

I kind of realized the change when one NPC informed me through in-game dialogue. Perhaps you should have read that.

When I first played Asassin's Creed, I didn't know about the Weapon Wheel, where you could access more weapons (i.e. pistol, throwing knives, smoke bombs etc.) I didn't know about this in AC2 when I played it at my friend's house, but when I eventually got Brotherhood (only had an Xbox since December), I eventually learned that.
Especially given that the NPC was a gym leader...
I never could use the cape in SMW to fly for quite a while. I eventually ended up teaching myself how to do it through trial and error.
I knew that before the game was even released in Japan.

In FFII for the iPod, I did not know that you could hold the bottom right screen to see the overworld map.
I didn't know it was possible to jump in BioShock until I was almost at the end, escorting the little sister, then its like "HOLYCRAP."

I didn't know this either; if I was really desperate for health I would stand there for about 5 minutes tapping the button

Nope. Made it pretty clear pre-release, and in-game.
I still suck at cape/wing cap(SM64). I rage at the 'Red Coins in the Sky' level to this day.
Don't you have to jump early on? Or was that just crouching?

In Dead Space 1 I had no idea you could heal with items in your inventory by just pressing the B button (I think that was the one). I always went to the menu during fights and healed.
Crouching.
I encountered many areas where I said "Wow, jumping here would be so helpful," but I didn't realize it until almost the end of the game.
