<p>Here’s a random story if ever there was one: a parakeet has managed to faithfully recreate all of the little bleeps and bloops that can be heard while navigating the Nintendo Switch home menu. <em>And it’s utterly fantastic.</em></p>
<p>Not content with copying <em>mainstream</em> phrases like ‘who’s a pretty boy, then?’, this parakeet has proudly stated its allegiance to the gaming community by talking in – what we like to call – Switch language. If you listen carefully, you might recognise all the familiar jingles from the system’s home menu – such as opening up your profile and checking your friends list – and even the sound made when scrolling through your games at high speed.</p>

<p>We’d love to see it take a crack at the GameCube loading screen, but this is still pretty cool nonetheless. If you’re reading, little parakeet, we salute you.</p>
