i love coming across playable arcade games inside other games.
the example that comes to mind is Klungo's Arcade in Banjo Kazooie: Nuts & Bolts.

Back in the day, when I fired up Mortal Kombat 3 for the snes, I'd usually end up spending more time in the space invaders game than playing MK itself, especially since the consoles kept the tuning intended to keep the quarters coming for the arcade version (first fight would be easy, next fight would be hard, then easy after continue, so it wasn't just pay to play for the arcade but pay to win).

I'm curious if I'd remember each of the codes required for the secret menus, one of which contained the mini game. Can't remember them offhand but it might be different with an snes controller in my hand.

Actually I think I do remember one of them (or maybe it's the Konami code, or maybe those two are the same code):

Up, up, down, down, left, right, A, B, A

Or maybe it was right then left. Lol I also remember usually needing to try several variations before I'd get each code correct.
