GameCube menu music is actually Famicom disc system BIOS music when sped up

February 20th, 2010 Posted in GameCube, News, Written by Valay

Remember that Super Mario Sunshine nugget we posted yesterday? Well, here’s another hidden Nintendo secret for you.

Take a listen to the GameCube’s menu music:

Nothing seems to be too exciting about that, right? Well, let’s speed up the music by about twenty-five times…

Believe it or not, that music is actually the same song found on the Famicom disc system BIOS startup screen. Pretty neat, don’t you think?

    It is reasonable that
    1. GC is the first Nintendo system since FDS to have a BIOS startup
    2. GC is the first Nintendo system(excluding 64DD) since FDS to be a dis system.
