- NCAA Basketball Final Four 97 (PlayStation) includes a hidden marriage proposal accessible via a specific button sequence.
- The sequence is: Select, Start, Triangle, Up, X, Square, Up, X, Left, Up, X, leading to a proposal from Scott to Melissa.
- Answering 'Yes' results in 'And they lived happily ever after...', while 'No' prompts 'Error, please try again'.
- A second hidden sequence unlocks a SECRET menu with options like Half length, Big Head Mode, and Roll Credits.
- The same Easter eggs are found in World League Basketball, another game by the same studio.
- Scott Corley, the lead programmer, confirmed the proposal was real and that he and Melissa are happily married.
- Other games with marriage proposals mentioned include Mortal Kombat 1, Marvel’s Spider-Man, and Klax.
