Nobody is forcing anyone to find or access Easter Eggs. It wasn't malicious nor annoying, it wasn't even accessible unless you attached a keyboard. I haven't seen any backlash from "unsuspecting" buyers, only Nintendo.

I see the potential worries from a security perspective, but as an "unsuspecting" consumer, why would you care?
