Legacy
Many years after the FDS was released, the system and its Disk-kun mascot would be recognized by Nintendo and others. In the Nintendo GameCube video game Super Smash Bros. Melee, switching the language to Japanese (via the options menu) would also result in the trophy gallery's Nintendo Entertainment System and Super NES being replaced with a Family Computer and Super Famicom, respectively. Additionally, Disk-kun could be unlocked as a trophy via accessing all bonus scores.
The background music of the Nintendo GameCube's system menu is a highly slowed-down version of the FDS startup jingle.
In the Oh My Goddess! TV series, a Disk System (and presumably a Disk Card) shows up in episode 26.
The FDS boot up theme is briefly played in Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door when Princess Peach inserts a floppy disk into Sir Grodus' computer during the fifth chapter's interlude.
