How to access hidden majors mask credits
For those who own a copy The Legend of Zelda: Collector's Edition and GameCube or Wii, it's fairly easy to access this credit screen. Players can enter it virtually anywhere they have control over Link. The code is similar to the iconic Konami code, but with a few additions. All players have to do is launch the game and enter this sequence:
When holding L + R + Z:
- D-Pad up
- D-Pad up
- D-Pad down
- D-Pad down
- D-Pad left
- D-Pad on the right
- D-Pad left
- D-Pad on the right
- X
- Y
- B
- AND
- D-Pad up
- D-Pad left
- D-Pad down
- D-Pad on the right
- AND
- Start
Once entered, the secret credits should appear. There's nothing to interact with and the background is pure black, so unfortunately there's no new gameplay or cutscenes to admire. I give credit to those who made it possible to play the N64 Zelda classic on the GameCube makes sense, though it's unclear why the only way to see it was through this convoluted code. Including them in the game's standard end credits would have gotten the team more attention, but finding this code twenty years after the title was released for the GameCube now at least proves them right.
