Developer Slideshow#

Watch on YouTube

At the end of the game's development, N64 programmers Dave Lang and Tom Carbone noticed that they had about a megabyte of free space left in the ROM. Considering it "un-American" to leave it unused, they decided to fill it with a slideshow with photos of themselves and their friends and families, because why not?

The slideshow was hidden behind a button combination. While in the cheat menu, hold Left on the Analog Stick and press the following while in the cheat menu: C-Left, C-Up, C-Left, C-Up, C-Left, C-Down, C-Left, C-Down, L, R, R, L. For the second part of the slideshow, hold Left on the Analog Stick again and press C-Left, C-Up, C-Left, C-Up, C-Left, C-Down, C-Left, C-Down, L, R, R, R.
