Justin Bailey was the lead singer vocalist of Iron Maiden from 1994 - 1999.

Justin Bailey...is a play on words 😂!! For "just in barely"... as in just in barely anything because she was only wearing a leotard. SAFE AUTO DID THE SAME THING WITH THE GUY JUSTIN CASE.... because " just in case" purposes.... get it?? It was an old-school play on words Easter egg that for some reason not too many people caught on to they do this with names all the time

Down+B was big for me for attacking purposes, never capturing

[@petrnovak7235]

Rosebud only works in The Sims after the first patch (and in all later expansion packs and collections). But the original code in unpatched version of The Sims was "klapaucius". But in Sims 2, they changed this again and the new code is "kaching". Fortunately they kept this code for Sims 3 and 4, so you don't have to remember new code for later games. Though, Sims 4 also brought back the legendary "rosebud", so, now, you can use both interchangeably. But another money code that was added in Sims 2 and became legend since then is "motherlode". This code will add 50,000, so, way more than the original code and was around in all upcoming mainline games and also many side games. And I personally feel this cheat should be in this list instead of rosebud, because nowadays, if you say money cheat and Sims, many people, including some who never played the game, will immediately say motherlode.

We know what Justin Bailey is It was actually the sequence of the code and is just coincidentally spelled out a name. It's kind of like the final fantasy was the last game square soft was going to make. We know that's bogus too

Square was successful at the time. The actual story was that if final fantasy didn't have success then sakaguchi was going to quit the games industry.

[@montywh]

one code that i'll always remember was from the original Killer Instinct on SNES. choose Cinder, then on the VS screen, hold select and press L, R, X, B, Y, A to now play as the game's boss, Eyedol. lots of fun times in pulling that on friends when we fought each other, and we'd bring out the boss as a last resort

IDDQD is likely the reason most people called ID software, Eye-Dee software in the 90's. Hardcore doom players did not say Eid Software. Similar to RYU being pronounced Rye-you not Re-You in the 90's.

I think everyone gets the Konami code wrong because who the hell plays it solo? No, instead of "B, A, start," it's actually "B, A, select, start." for 2 players.

1:00 or 2, 1, 2, Down, Up if you had the Master System/Game Gear version. Top entry theres at least one, if I remember right its a Gradius title, where enterying the Konami code makes your ship instantly explode so be wary of where you enter it

[@matt010288]

7:10 iirc, if you enter rosebud followed by !;!;!;!; and a space after the last semicolon then you could hold down enter and just rack the simoleons without having to type and retype rosebud every time.

The first gen of Pokemon, had a nice glitch cheat, to get 99 items. You had to have the item in the 6th slot in items, say no to the the old man, then fly to cinnabar, surf up and down the side of the island, find missingo, defeat it, then you should have 99 of whatever item it was. Good way to get multiple master balls.

Justin Bailey also worked on kid Icarus. You started the game with all gear, including like 99 feathers so you’d fly back up if you fell in a pit. In mega man 2 holding right on the player 2 dpad would make mega man do a super jump and he’d walk on the bottom of the pits instead of dying.
