Remember a few weeks back, when someone bizarrely decided to enter the Konami Code (up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start/enter) on ESPN.com, and discovered (no doubt to bewildered delight) that it made unicorns and rainbows appear? Well it turns out ESPN.com was not alone. KonamiCodeSites.com (via Joystiq) has compiled a list of all websites so far known to have some kind of effect when the Konami Code is entered on it, and the list so far totals 25 pages.
A couple of not-so-surprising sites are on the list, such as GameSpot (the code takes you to their Contra hints page) and Giant Bomb (to their Contra page in general). But how on Earth can we account for the Konami Code appearing on Google Reader? Or FaceBook? Or Digg? On the AdventureQuest Worlds website, the code initiates an animation -- no doubt inspired by the ESPN.com event -- showing some sort of creature shooting unicorns with a bazooka. On JQuery.com, the website for a JavaScript library program, the code reveals a simplified web-based Guitar Hero game.

All of which begs the question: What the hell is going on? Is this the work of hackers, or playful web designers? Is this some sort of greater Internet conspiracy? A series of coincidental but unrelated events? Is this what a Ghost in the Shell fan might even call a Stand Alone Complex?! Whatever inspired such a series of Konami Code-inspired gags, we must say it's pretty awesome.

No, it can be done on the regular keyboard. Just click the screen(not a link) and enter the code, a video should pop up Smile^
