And it inspired this stupid strip:

And this halfway decent strip:

Anyone else want to run the Konami Code into the ground?

Never tried the code in Gradius III.

It blows you up?

THANKS A LOT KONAMI!

At least...I don't *think* the DDR pads have A and B buttons, do they?

nope, they dont. however, on the pads you just substitute the B, A for X, O and it works just fine. i forget what it does though. this is also the way it works on PS2.

i am a colossal nerd.

Does that code work for MGS2 then?

in Gradius III (Super NES), the correct code for extra lives is Up Up Down Down L R L R B A Start. The L and R buttons were new, you see. If you put in the regular code, your ship self-destructed. I am so fucking L337.

Hmmm I have a few Konami games. I bet they are the ones without the code though =/

evidently, if you input the konami code on the title screen of one of the MGS games (the first one, i think), you can see a high-res video clip of snake and psycho mantis running a train on a bound and gagged meryl. either that, or there's just a clip of snake yelling. i forget which.
