Forums - Nintendo - Have you Heard of this Easter Egg before? (Totaka's Song) + can you find it in ...

 

If you don't know , Totaka's song is one of the most recurring Nintendo Easter eggs that have been found in every game Kazumi Totaka worked on, he always hide them in there, and people find them years later, but as of now,  there are games some are VERY popular games that still to this day, this song haven't been found on, and these are 

Wave Race 64 (yes it has another huge easter egg other than that one with the announcer) . Wii Sports and Wii Music 

This is the first game to have him as a music director, and the first game he worked on, so its the first to have this easter egg 

 

watch this video to get the idea (watch the other parts since this is an old video and people found the other games he mentioned)

Also check this video and this site for more info on the subject

So with that said, Can you Nintendo people on the VGchartz , able to figure out where exactly can you find the  song in Wii Music (i don't have it sadly) and Wii Sports , Wave Race 64 (I have these two, so I can try them =D ) , of course our chances of finding them are really low, since these games are old now, and no one found them still, but who knows. right?

Y U NO post on interesting threads ?!



It is odd that it never appeared in Wii Music, given the purpose of the game. You would figure, however, that ISO/cartridge Rips (plus some sort of source-code-search program) would have yielded it by now if it existed in any of them

I did find it in Yoshi's Story, but that's all.

You cant find it by simply going into the ISO file and by ripping it, i've wrote about it, and its a long read, so lemme see if I find it somewhere.



I heard about this when GT did a pop-fiction about it with Wii Sports. It's a cool easter egg, bug I am not that die hard to go out to find them.



don't waste time

This was mind blowing when I heard for the first time, years ago.

The only thing I don't like about this is that the song actually sucks. Should have been more catchy, Mr. Totaka... after Animal Crossing we know you could have done better!

Well iit was a piece from a very old game, with limited resources, but it was intentionally sounding "Messy" because of the content of that game (fake scientist making a wacky face) and then the sequel of the game the same, so he decided to stick to it, and besides, when you hear it, you know something is "off"

How and where would find these? Do I need a gameshark for the n64 game?


All of these are easter eggs , that are meant to be found without using gamesharks and other cheating devices.

HERE I found it

 

Developers can easily hide Easter eggs nowadays without anyone finding them even if they search into the file. For example having multiple broken files, small ones and one "trigger" file, if you "trigger" this one file INGAME you will combine those smaller files into one and form an Easter egg. 
Something to know about this.

 

You never know which one is this trigger file

You can never trigger this file outside the game since you need the game itself or the games engine to run it properly , and you need to open this trigger file in the right area and the right time and the order, so it's pointless and more confusing than actually finding INGAME

You never know which combination of files from the Easter egg , maybe 10s and thousands, so yeah you can hide them very well, in the past most Easter eggs are easy to find sice developers and gamers didn't have the tech to hide them so the Easter eggs are just textures (doom) or sound files (old Totaka's song ) or text files (Zelda), the reason why Totaka's song in smash brothers and wii sports and also on wave race ( yes there is another hidden Easter egg in it) are not yet found is because they're using that same idea , about the trigger, the trigger file on wave race for example is the code you input , and the sound files of the announcer were hidden inside the general file of sound effects and was broken to pieces 



yes a very popular easter eggs!
