For some reason, Nintendo always hides a few easter eggs in the interface of their consoles. For example, on Switch<\/a>, when you unlock it, depending on the button you press, it will sound in a different way… And, actually, this is something that dates back 23 years, since the release of GameCube<\/strong>, with a couple of absolutely amazing surprises that you probably didn’t know about and will make you dust off the console.<\/p>\n\n\n

The game cube<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While all eyes may now be on Switch 2<\/a>, it’s worth taking a look at the past: try turning on the console. If you press the Z button in the meantime, the famous G made up of cubes won’t have its usual xylophone-based tune: instead, it will sound like one of those squeaky children’s toys that make noise when you squeeze them<\/strong> and end with a childish laugh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nice, yes, but there’s more! If you connect four controllers and press the Z button on all of them at the same time, the startup screen will sound this time with a reminiscence of ‘Donkey Kong’<\/a>, with jungle sounds that culminate in a desperate monkey scream<\/strong>. Why? What is the reason for Nintendo hiding this secret in broad daylight? Who knows. The truth is that a TikTok video from the Secret Castle Toys store has revealed it and now I can’t stop thinking about a weekend alone with the GameCube.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
