Easter Egg: Difference between revisions

Line 229:
* Similarly, try holding down the Z button as you start up a [[Game Cube]]. Now try holding down the Z buttons on all four controllers at once as you start it up.
** This also works for holding Z on the first two controllers, but not the first three, sadly.
* On the Radio Shack "Color Computer 3", pressing <ctrl><alt><reset> wipes everything in memory and displays a photo of three guys at Microware who wrote the 80-column display software... in ROM. This one graphic occupies nearly a quarter of the system's entire read-only memory; apparently Tandy was not amused?
* On Microsoft's now-discontinued "WebTV" dial-up Internet thin client boxes (including the Dish Network DishPlayer), entering various numbers into the remote control with the unit turned off trigger assorted test functions. For instance, [[555|867-5309]] (Jenny's number from the Tommy Tutone song) will cause the unit to call home to MS for firmware.
* While examining a painting of {{spoiler|Flora}} in ''[[Professor Layton and the Curious Village]]'', if you try to touch her breast when you're supposed to {{spoiler|find the mark of the Golden Apple}}, the Professor will say "Now Luke, be a gentleman."
* In the special edition of ''[[BioShock (series)]] 2'', you have several posters advertising Rapture. On each one of them is {{spoiler|Rapturian graffiti in UV-sensitive ink that is only visible under a blacklight. This is hinted at NOWHERE on the poster.}}
Line 237 ⟶ 239:
* In ''FreeCell'' entering game number -1 or -2 results in an unwinnable deal, while (in the newest version) entering -3 or -4 yields a deal that can be instantly won.
* ''Vectron'' for the [[Intellivision]] would display a message from the programmer if the player did an [http://www.intvfunhouse.com/games/vect.php#eastereggs incredibly difficult series of maneuvers] for seven levels. As with Atari's ''[[Adventure (1979 video game)|Adventure]]'', this Easter Egg was hidden because Mattel had a policy against crediting programmers.
