Hidden message left for hackers within the NES Mini
It was bound to happened eventually, hackers have got into the NES Mini and not only managed to add their own games, but also found a hidden message. This message was hidden within the consoles operating code – whoever left it knew someone would find it one day. Here’s the text;
This is the hanafuda captain speaking. Launching emulation in 3…2…1. Many efforts, tears and countless hours have been put into this jewel. So, please keep this place tidied up and don’t break everything! Cheers, the hanafuda captain.
It was found by a Twitter user by the name of bakueikozo;

Hackers have had a busy week with the system, it’s now possible to load more games on the system – however like with any sort of hack things could do wrong. You can find out more here.

I doubt it really matters but this was found in the Famicon Mini, not the NES mini
