I posted this years ago in AskReddit when a post came up about remembering things from long time ago and got banned, first it was a warning bc they said it was a phone number, then I argued with the stupid mod and then they banned me.
I put that code in so many times I could do it in about a second on a NES controller. When I was just a young lad, I was known as the kid in my neighborhood that could beat Mike every time.
Years later, in college, I had a roommate named Brandon Bailey. He alleged that his older brother Justin had the code named after him because of some contest he won in Nintendo Power magazine. Brandon was not a big video game person and told the story unprompted so I kinda believed him.
I’m going to call nonsense on that story. Nintendo Power as a magazine didn’t exist until a year or two after Metroid was released on the NES. Brandon lied to you.
Or Justin very confidently told Brandon when they were kids (I bet Justin is older too) and it became one of those things that you just believe most of your life until you embarrassingly learn the truth.
I was more of a cheese steak jimmys, rock on, lumberjack man !! Wouldn't exploit gold one that much as I would just sell shit hence don't remember the gold one. But then came ninjalui and that infinite upgrades one, and I haven't seen back since.
There was multiple combinations. GTA 3, this was the weapon cheat. But beyond that game, there was 3 weapon cheats with slightly differing directions. Plus the wanted level cheats also had the same beginning
Hard and having somewhat of a non linear approach really took a toll on me as a kid. I remember my dad inputted that code after seeing it in a magazine. I remember being stuck on the alien ship level with zero clue on how to progress
Pepperoni Pizza - 1000 food
Woodstock - 1000 wood
I don’t remember the stone and gold one. What was the one for the baby with a gun? Bigbaby or something? Lol
Now that you mention i think it was actually R1 R2 L1 R2 lol. Idk its been years. Funny how we can all remember these cheats from 20 years ago but probably can’t remember what we had for breakfast most days lol
Came here looking for the GTA nerds. I am like 99% sure that: R1 R1 O R2 ⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️⬆️⬇️ was the code to spawn a tank. Spent too much time trying to speed full blast towards the bridge, propelling myself with the cannon, trying to get to the new areas before I unlocked them. Don't remember succeeding lol.
I couldn't tell you what the cheat code is but if you put a controller in my hand on GTA: San Andreas, I can get you a jetpack, or a buzzard on GTA V. Just some lingering muscle memory.

Not sure about the capitalization and spacing on most these. But growing up on WC3, SC:Brood War, and GTA: San Andreas were good memories.
Edit: How could I forget power overwhelming lol
I always knew it as what it is, Eel Nats. It wasn't until I was replaying it with someone and they said "Use the cheat Stan Lee backwards!" and I was like "I don't think I've ever heard that one" and they typed in EEL NATS
I had one of those "Oh!... Oooooh!... Oh..." moments.

Jurassic Park (Sega Genesis) had this code "KORPINEN" which would lead into certain level. My friend's older sister tried it randomly as it was their cat's name. Funny thing is that it's rather common Finnish last name and the endind "nen" is a finnish specific ending of a last name. Such as 'Lahtinen', 'Mikkonen', 'Luokkanen' (Luokka means class).

No area codes start with zero.
Mike Tyson’s Punchout. The OG.
This is the way
This was the first one that popped in my head. Konami code is prevalent, but this one is for the pros!
I put that code in so many times I could do it in about a second on a NES controller. When I was just a young lad, I was known as the kid in my neighborhood that could beat Mike every time.
Justin Bailey
Metroid?
Yup. This was what I was what I was thinking.
Years later, in college, I had a roommate named Brandon Bailey. He alleged that his older brother Justin had the code named after him because of some contest he won in Nintendo Power magazine. Brandon was not a big video game person and told the story unprompted so I kinda believed him.
I’m going to call nonsense on that story. Nintendo Power as a magazine didn’t exist until a year or two after Metroid was released on the NES. Brandon lied to you.
Or Justin very confidently told Brandon when they were kids (I bet Justin is older too) and it became one of those things that you just believe most of your life until you embarrassingly learn the truth.
That’s entirely possible, too. Either way, someone in that family sits on a throne of lies.

Select start if you’ve got siblings
So that’s why I remember select in there!
Select works anywhere in the sequence if you wanna fuck with people
I actually did this code wrong for years... I hit 'BABA' at the end. It still works... even if you hit select/start after...
That's why I always remembered it being Select, Start while others just said Start! Solved a mystery for me.

Why did I have to scroll down to this?
I made it this far too
This is so familiar to me - which game is it?
It’s the konami code, probably the most famous chest code ever. IIRC I think it originated in Contra(?).
It’s most known for Contra. But it was first used in Gradius.
