Video game easter egg

Mummy the Peepshow was featured as an easter egg in the 2005 video game Far Cry Instincts for the Xbox console. Entering a special button combination on the controller in the game's map editor would reveal a special message that says "MtP! Maki! Naru! Mayu! Aki!", referencing the Electric Rollergirl line up of the band.
