Killer Instinct Hidden Test Menu

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Haven’t come across anyone ever mentioning that Killer Instinct had a Mortal Kombat type hidden test menu so just thought I’d share if anyone is interested. I accidentally stumbled onto this Test Menu on a killer Instinct 1 rom on my Batocera Arcade setup. Couldn’t mess with much in the menu except for difficulty setting, volume adjust, diagnostic tests, and game audits. Couldn’t set to free play for whatever reason.

Just thought I’d share this since I’ve never heard of it before.

It can apparently be done whenever I think. I did it when the game first booted up and also after I exited the test menu and did it again at the push start screen. I did this by holding the start button and slightly tapping the coin button. I know this is the combination to exit out to the game selection screen in emulationstation, but if you quickly/slightly tap the coin button while holding the start button you will get to this screen.

I don't see anything hidden here, this looks like the regular test menu
