Remember the short-lived Unicornification of ESPN.com (http://www.joystiq.com/2009/04/27/konami-code-turns-espn-com-into-a-lisa-frank-wonderland/) which could be viewed by entering in the Konami Code? Turns out that's not the only site that can be modified by entering in everyone's favorite sequence of keystrokes. Check out the extremely aptly named KonamiCodeSites.com (http://konamicodesites.com/) to see a list of pages that respond in various ways to the familiar tune of Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start (or Enter).
For instance, Facebook (http://www.facebook.com) adds a lens flare effect once the code is entered. AdventureQuest Worlds (http://www.aq.com/aw-designnotes.asp) shows a short flash clip featuring ... unicorns! (We're beginning to see a pattern here.) The best we've seen? The official site of jQuery (http://jquery.com/), a JavaScript library program, loads up a Java-based Guitar Hero game when you input the code. Oh, and Joystiq? Every time you enter the code here, an angel gets its wings.
