5 of the Best Gaming Easter Eggs in Recent Years

Totaka’s Song (Nintendo)

This is an easter egg that transcends video game generations. Totaka’s Song is a simple (and kind of creepy TBH) melody that Nintendo sound designer Kazumi Totaka has hidden in many of the projects that he works on. You can hear Totaka’s Song in older games such as Mario Paint, but also in new games as well including:

1. Mario Kart – Yoshi’s that are off track on certain courses will very faintly hum the tune.
2. Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer – If you use the DJ KK Slider amiibo card, enter his house, and place the turntable, you’ll hear the tune.
3. Yoshi’s New Island – To hear it in this one, wait long enough on certain world maps, the song will begin playing.
