The Konami Code makes it rain on Bank of Canada’s new $10 note website

The Konami Code strikes again, this time on a new $10 note website hosted by the Bank of Canada.

The site, designed to show off Canada’s new $10 note in all its glory, goes one step further with the Konami Code is input. Hitting up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A on the site will make it rain, throwing in O Canada, the country’s national anthem, in for good measure.

Go on. Give it a try.

The Konami Code was also recently used in Old Time Hockey — it will unlock advanced controls when input.

Thanks, Kotaku.
