The Konami Code

DragonicityDragonicity Registered User regular
edited April 2009 in Social Entropy++
This wonderful little code is well known by many gamers, most of which memorized it so that they could actually beat Contra.

It is embedded in many wonderful places in our society.

I would like for you to show me more places it is embedded.

Here is one that a coworker told me about today.

http://www.espn.com

type in this variation of the classic code at the homepage.

up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, b, a (Then you can press enter ad infinitum)

Enjoy the tribute to manly men, who like sportz. (I like sportz, btw)

I wonder how long this will last now before ESPN has to pull this from their site. :lol:

Show me more!! GO!

    on your keyboard.

    Just go to the page and hit the keys in that order. You don't need to be at an input box.

    I saw a girl with it tattoo'ed on her stomach, just below the navel.

    I always wondered what tapping it on her buttons would unlock.
    what? it's a natural curiosity.

    I'm not experienced when it comes to ink but that would probably be the least painful place to get one.

    It was somewhere on the internet, so if you looked around on Destructoid for long enough, I'm sure you could find it.

    They lap that shit up.
