GameCube menu music == FDS startup music!

[UglyJoe]

I'm at work so I haven't heard it yet, but apparently the GameCube menu music, when sped up 25x, turns out to be the same as the FDS startup music.

Amazing!

That's awesome!  I love it when people find stuff like this.

Wow! I'm seriously impressed!

In fact I needed more proof than that video to really believe it so I recorded the sound off my GameCube, sped it up in GoldWave and confirmed that it is indeed true!

This is one of the most awesome Nintendo related discoveries made in a long time!

I did the same thing. It is quite remarkable.

Ok, I've heard it now.  Mind.  Blown.

Holy shit. The Gamecube is how old and this is only NOW being discovered? AMAZING.

Great discovery. Nice.

Oh, okay - I thought it meant the GC startup music.

At first, I was like, what do you mean? It's nothing like the FDS tune.

Then I realized it said 'menu music' so, yeah - okay.

But who seriously spends time listening to that!

Holy shit! I'm... wow!  It could be considered subliminal because of the fashion in which it's hidden. A cameo would have to be more direct in order for it to be considered a cameo. I wonder what other semi-creepy-interesting stuff Nintendo has done just out of curiosity? Anyone care to check the Wii menu for something just for the sake of it? I love when people find stuff like this.

This one is 16x sped up.

To call it an Easer Egg would be a better description.  I always liked the kiddie laughing intro you got if you held Z or whatever when you powered on.

You mean this?
