Konami Code WTF?!

[DragonsAteMyMarbles]

I just discovered that entering in the Konami code (up arrow twice, down twice, left, right, left, right, B, A, Enter) on Facebook generates some sort of trippy lens flare effect.

Simultaneously awesome and irritating as fuck.

Any other websites where this sort of thing happens?

Where in the world do you input that on Facebook?

 

[Agayek]

The search bar, or any other text entering field.

Anywhere. Doesn't have to be in a text field or anything like that.

Here's a list, although Facebook seems to be the most interesting one that's still up right now.

Why would you randomly enter that on Facebook?

Why would you randomly enter that on Facebook?

Why were you on Facebook?

A combination of extreme boredom, insomnia and the fact that my 360 had just kicked an electronic bucket.

that's actually kinda cool

technically tho it's the Contra code, just got put into every Konami game after Contra

Wow, I didn't know that actually worked.

I of course went and tried this after I entered it I thought 'oh crap i hope he didn't just trick me to deleting my account or something' nope instead I got a neat-o lens flare.

Although Contra made it famous, it was first used in Gradius [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Konami_Code].
