What is that one video game cheat code you’ll never forget about?
I’ll start us off with the classic “Explode All Cars” cheat from the classic 2004 game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, as that is one that I remember using a lot for no rhyme or reason:
R2, L2, R1, L1, L2, R2, SQUARE, TRIANGLE, CIRCLE, TRIANGLE, L2, L1
IDDQD
IDKFA
iddqd
idkfa
idspispopd
I always preferred idfa, so you’ll actually still get to play the whole level looking for the keys.
Up, down, left, right, A & start at the same time. I still sing the jingle when sonic 1 starts
That’s the one I remember (but as “all three buttons and start”) but I have no clue what it actually did.
Technically it’s: hold A, then press start
Also from San Andreas (or maybe Vice City) R1 R2 L1 R2 left down right up left down right up. It was used for different weapon sets and I think you could change the dpad combo at the end for different sets (eg left down right up left down down down)
The konami code
I have it on a T-shirt & still try it on games randomly to see if there’s an easter egg.
It works on my kids’ Fisher Price controller, game boy, and switch

Fuck that lava level.
The SNES or mega drive version?
DIPSTICK to enable chests in rise of the trial. SEEYA for god mode where the protagonist just walks around with his hand of God yawning at how boring it is when there’s no challenge. CUJO for dog mode.
Also, LONDON and NODNOL to enable/disable fog.
MARKSTEAM in the name box would unlock all tech and give a bunch of money in Syndicate on the Amiga.
DOOM: IDDQD - god mode, IDKFA - all weapons / items
SimCopter - I’M THE CEO OF MCDONNELL DOUGLAS unlocks all helicopters
Superpower multiply
“up up down down left right left right B A B Start”
Contra - NES
Actually it works in a whole bunch of Konami games, and of course some modern games have thrown it in as an homage.
Isn’t it just ↑↑↓↓←→←→BA<start>? No second B?

WC3:
WhosYourDaddy - invincible units, buildings, and one shot the enemy
GreedIsGood X - gives X gold and lumber
GTA:SA
HESOYAM - cash, hp, vehicle repair (on top of my head)
AEZAKMI - locks wanted level
UZUMYMW - a pack of weapon, IIRC no. 3 of 3
BAGUVIX - unlimited health
FULLCLIP - unlimited ammo
thereisnospoon
For GTA SA I remember chittychittybangbang to make your car fly.
ultimate mortal Kombat 3, Sega Saturn

Rosebud for money in the Sims
Don’t forget all the :;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;:;
didn’t play much og sims, but sims2 (and later, iirc), motherlode gives more.
i also had a few custom items i could drop in to a house, too.
They also had “kaching” or something similar instead of rosebud in Sims 2 I think. But it was only 1k or 5k unsure. Motherlode was much more ye
motherlode
Or motherlode
Also “move objects on”
Just gonna delete these bills here… Hey why not the whole mailbox?
I also once had a sim make enough garden gnomes to fill every single tile of the street… Then he kicked one. 😂
How do you turn this on (Age of)
Fly and ghost (Unreal 1 : to observe every minute details of the map))
