As we course of and work via all of the Nintendo Swap 2 protection right here at Vooks, there’s one factor we simply needed to let you know about immediately – the GameCube boot intro is hidden within the Nintendo GameCube – Nintendo Classics app, which is offered now on the Nintendo Swap 2 for Nintendo Swap On-line + Growth Pack subscribers.
Should you begin the app usually, you’ll see the usual controller-on-red-screen picture, like this:
Nonetheless, for those who maintain Up on the analogue stick whereas it boots, you’ll get the basic startup display screen that includes the unfolding GameCube brand.
However for those who’re sufficiently old to recollect, there was additionally one other boot animation, accessed again within the day by holding down the Z button on the controller when powering on the purple system. That methodology doesn’t work right here, however for those who boot the app and, whereas the Nintendo Swap 2 brand is clapping collectively, rapidly double-press all of the set off buttons (L, LR, R, ZR) and maintain them, you’ll get the squeaky kids-laughing model.
Observe in my Bluesky publish I say it’s a must to maintain up, seems this isn’t required.
Earlier than you say, “Properly truly, there was one other one” – you’re proper. Should you had 4 controllers and held Z on all of them, you’d get a 3rd and remaining sound. Whether or not or not that’s included right here, we don’t but know – this author doesn’t have entry to a few different pairs of arms to attempt it out.
If it really works, tell us, yeah?
Additionally one final little egg, for those who use the GameCube controller within the software you’ll get GameCube colors and sounds within the app as effectively. Neat!
