Cabel SasserHereโs an easter egg in the new Lego Batman that I think all of yourwill REALLY appreciate.
Itโs so good, I had to make a video.

Timothy Wood@cabel Fucking amazing.
I'm your desk sized companion! 
@cabel this is ENTIRELY unrelated but I do have to wonder where and how the diamond shape became this ubiquidous icon for "go here." like once you notice it you start seeing it come up everywhere... at first I thought it was exclusive to Control (2019) but it just Keeps Appearing
Natanox ๐บ๐ฆ๐ต๐ธ@rabbithawk256 @cabel Huh, interesting. Red diamond shapes are also the questmarker in NieR:Automata. Thought that's just part of the UI design of that specific game.

Gameplay from Lego Batman: Batman takes something from a stuffed bear and plugs it into a computer. Subtitle: Red Hood One put something in this bear, but what? Let's analyze it.
On the computer monitor appears two screens of what looks suspiciously like Commodore BASIC, followed by a banner that reads: BAT BASIC v19.89
Video cuts to a Commodore 64 emulation, where the above program listing is typed in and run. It brings up a small yellow Batman logo, which bounces around the screen.

Fred Haineux@cabel Good on you for doing this incredibly necessary task!
Justin Miller@cabel Fantastic. Thank you for doing it so I didnโt have to.

Daniel Jalkut@cabel Holy shit, Batman.

๐@cabel holy Molly this is amazing
TunafishTiger@Migueldeicaza @cabel teaching Batman BASIC is trivial with enough tokens
รscar Morales Vivรณ@cabel If this cut got any deeper we'd need John Cameron to fetch it back.
Graham Sutherland / Polynomial@cabel haaaa, Batman DVD logo simulator
opulentpavingWhat's the easter egg? Is something in the code?
Austin Huang โค๏ธ@mattmaison The BASIC code shown on the in-game computer screen, when entered in a Commodore 64, generates a batman sprite that "flies" across the screen. @cabel This is why alt text is essential.
@mattmaison @austin Yes, as i explained in the voiceover, i typed in all of the code i saw on the game screen into a c64 emulator, and hit run. the code made that bat signal screensaver. :)
Ah, my bad. I didn't know there was audio. Nice work running the code! Very cool!
Also, I just saw this article on it:

Lego Batman's Newest Easter Egg Really Makes You Work For It
Lego Batman: Legacy of the Dark Knight is full of Easter eggs, but one of its most obscure will put a smile on the face of anyone who grew up in the Commodore 64 era of computers. As spotted by the eagle-eyed Cabel Sasser, a quick jaunt to the Batcave during one of the early...
Just listened to your audio. I thought the blue screen was from the game also. My fault for not listening... Your explaination is good.

Knightmare@cabel OMG OMG OMG
screambiogenesis@cabel It's too long to fit in a post, but in case anyone wants to try out the code (I did!), it's in the alt-text of the image below. Tested and verified in the Denise C64 emulator.
Shroomy (formerly Leaf)@cabel omg. That's amazing!
ShivvinessAs a former Commodore 64 owner, I think that's so sweet they went to the bother of including that detail, and thank you for running the programme for us.
Andy Baio@cabel OMG, amazing find! If anyone wants to quickly try it themselves, copy the code here: https://gist.github.com/waxpancake/c6b287e725347cc6981a87bb8fdd11ea
And use the menu in the bottom-right of this excellent browser-based C64 emulator to paste text from clipboard, and hit enter to run it! https://ty64.krissz.hu/
Jeff Atwood@cabel OMG CABEL I AM LITERALLY IN TEARS THIS IS SO GOOD THANK YOU FOR THIS

Anthony Baker@cabel THAT IS AWESOME

Tom Forsyth@cabel As someone who has transcribed many 8-bit BASIC programs from one platform to another, it is tragic how a screen full of POKEs is correctly interpreted as C64. Every other platform had an actual BASIC that you could do things with!

Irenes (many)@cabel yes. that was quite pleasant. thank you for the video.
