Spoilers, I guess.

So I found something cool in the gameplay footage.

During the final Master Core fight, at one point during the battle, the music cuts out and is replaced by a series of fast beeps.

See this here in this video.

Turns out that's Morse Code. Hoping to find some cool secret, I went ahead and translated it.

Nothing too amazing, unfortunately. But it spells out "MASTER CORE."



(Apologies if this doesn't warrant its own thread. I kind of have no idea where this should go.)

You found hidden Morse Code in a boss battle, and you think that's "nothing amazing?" I don't care if it wasn't new information or anything - that's a pretty dang cool easter egg. Huge props for your discovery, sir!

Nice find! It's kinda odd it just says master core though, don't you think? I would watch this later on. Sneaky Sakurai might suddenly change it.

Read that title and my mind went too far and expected portal 2-like secrets haha. Image of Ridley on the moon.

All of the streamers were focused on unlocking characters sadly. Hopefully when we get detailed boss fight info in a few short hours you'll have your answer

Pretty sure Crazy Core is a thing.

...God, imagine how ridiculous it must be after seeing Master Core...

That's pretty awesome that they did that, and adds a bit of atmosphere to this new character. Looking forward to uncovering more Easter Eggs in this game as time goes on.

I can't believe that something vague like this would exist.

And you say this is nothing special? Who knows what other Easter Eggs there are!

Didn't matter which hand was attacked first. It still ends up as master core.
No, every single one of the streamers just attacked Master Hand. The only time they hit Crazy was when he just randomly happened to be there. They never actually "beat" Crazy Hand the same way they did with Master Hand.

You must have missed some footage

The "beeps" sounds weird to me... so that's a Easter Egg!
Good job for the translation, all credits to ya!

Oh, wow! Nice find!

I love it when game developers go out of their way to include little tidbits like this. It makes you want to find more.
