Sorry about the banner ads and the pop unders. Unless someone gives me some free space, we're stuck with it. Sigh.
Greetings, gamer. This is David Dayton's Nintendo Code Book version 7.1, containing over 15,000 codes, tips, tricks, glitches, cheats, bugs, and "undocumented features" for tens of hundreds of Nintendo games. Take a look at this chart if you want a better idea of the game coverage.GAMES WITH CODE ENTRIES, LISTED BY SYSTEM NES 8-bit 382 |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Super NES 465 |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||| Game Boy 284 |||||||||||||||||||||||||||| GB Color 107 |||||||||| GB Advance 13 | Virtual Boy 11 | Nintendo 64 217 ||||||||||||||||||||| Arcade 4 | | = 10 titles. All systems with at least 1 title have 1 bar Total: 1479 (Checked: 128, Partial 74, Unchecked: 1280)Before you begin searching through these codes, make sure that you view this code book in a fixed width font, such as Courier. Charts, tables, and even bits of ASCII art can be found throughout this work, and they really won't make any sense if your word processor is displaying everything in proportional text. The file is also formatted for an 80 column display. If you have an ancient computer, or one of those new-fangled Palm top things, some of the entries might be a bit messy.Oh, please make sure that you read and understand the following legal notice:

Sacramento, CA 95820I've received a grand total of one cartridge so far... Pac-Man for the Atari 2600, from Aaron Kuhn -- one of my assitant editors! Thanks! Keep those carts coming... I'm pondering the idea of giving away free gifts to randomly chosen donators.
----- File and Game List Information ----- Anyway, getting back to the important stuff... this archive should contain the following files:NESCODES.TXT The main file containing the preface and codes REVISION.TXT A list of revisions. INDEX .TXT A list of all games covered in this archive FILE_ID .DIZ The description of the archive.The game entries in NESCODES.TXT are listed in alphabetical order. The articles "A" and "The" are ignored. If a game title begins with the word "Super" merely because it is a sequel to a previous game on a Nintendo platform, the game will be found under the series name (example: Super Castlevania IV is listed below Castlevania III. Super Bomberman is listed below Bomberman); there is one exception to this rule - all Super Mario games will be found in the S listings.
Next to each game title is an abbreviation used to designate the system the game is for.
nes Nintendo Entertainment System snes Super Nintendo Entertainment System gb Game Boy (grey cartridges) gbc Game Boy Color (black and transparent cartridges) gba Game Boy Advance vb Virtual Boy n64 Nintendo 64Please note that the GBC code will refer to both dual-compatible games (the black cartridges that will run on both a Game Boy Color and an ordinary Game Boy) and those that will only run on a Game Boy Color (the transparent cartridges). The GB code is only used to refer to games that have no built-in support for the Game Boy Color. This is important, as there are many games being released for the Game Boy Color that have the same title as older Game Boy games, even though the game program may be different (for example, the standard Game Boy Defender/Joust is an entirely different game than the Game Boy Color Defender/Joust).
----- Symbols Used in Code Descriptions -----
To understand the codes given in this code book, you'll need to understand the abbreviations I use to refer to the controllers.CNTRL I/II/III/IV Game controller number 1, 2, 3, or 4. If none are listed, use controller number 1. [On the N64, this will be used when the code can be entered using either the joypad or the joystick] PAD I Digital Crosskey Joypad (+) on Controller #1. [On the Virtual Boy, PAD I is the joypad on the left side of of the controller, and PAD II is the joypad on the right] STICK I Analog Joystick on N64 Controller #1. U D L R Up, Down, Left, or Right on the joypad or joystick. U+R U+L D+R D+L The four diagonal directions possible on the pad/joystick. U+R is the upper right diagonal, D+L the lower left, etc. These rarely appear in the code book. A B X Y Z The A, B, X, Y, or Z (trigger) buttons. cU cD cL cR The N64 "C" keys - the 4 yellow buttons with the arrows. [R] [L] The R and L shoulder buttons on the top of the controller. [On the Virtual Boy, these are the two triggers on the underside of the controller] SELECT The Select button START The Start button RESET The Reset button on the system itselfSymbols used for special code moves:+ Press two buttons at the same time. For example, "Press A+B" means you must press A and B at the same time. It might also mean that you should hold the buttons down in the order given; that is, hold A and then also hold B. x Number of times a button must be pressed. Ax4 means you must press A four times, or "A A A A". () Repeat a set of buttons a certain number of times. For example, "Press (A B)x2" means you must press A B A B. "Press U (A+B)x2 B" means you must press U A+B A+B B.A little piece of advice: often, you can make a one player cheat code into a two player one by pressing SELECT before you press the final START in the code on the title page, as this highlights the 2 Player option usually available.
----- Checked Codes & Assistant Editors ----- You'll probably notice that every game title has a small line under it that says CHECKED-something. This is my system for determining which codes I know to be 100% confirmed, and which codes ... well... aren't.
CHECKED-YES These codes work. I guarantee it.
CHECKED-NO These codes probably work. Please tell me if they do or don't
CHECKED-PART Some of these codes are confirmed, some aren't.How do you tell if a CHECKED-PART code is confirmed or fuzzy? Well, you'll probably notice at some point that every code is listed with a little ASCII arrow pointing to it. In all CHECKED-PART game entries, a => means that that code is confirmed as valid, while a -> means that the code hasn't been confirmed yet. All CHECKED-NO codes use => arrows, but those codes are still unconfirmed. Simple, eh?
----- Mirrors of the Code Book ----- While you can always browse the Code Book on the Internet at http://codebook.daviddayton.com , there are some people that have permission to use my codes in other forms and places.

What's New?
Ver. 7.1 - September 2cd, 2001 Things have been bad for the code book this year, and the server has changed frequently. Stals.com was gone in mid June, and the Xoom/NBCI server went down in July. Also, Bigfoot changed their policies. This means my e-mail and server have all changed. Sigh. Luckily, I now own a domain or two, and the future should be fairly stable... provided I keep updating this mess. Version 7.0 wasn't very widespread, due to these problems. 7.1 should be much more available, and contains the first Game Boy Advance codes. Many of these codes were available several months ago, but the revised version of the book simply wasn't available. Updated since last edition: EXCITEBIKE 64 (n64) New since last edition: ARMY MEN ADVANCE (gba) CASTLEVANIA: CIRCLE OF THE MOON (gba) EARTHWORM JIM (gba) F-ZERO: MAXIMUM VELOCITY (gba) GT ADVANCE CHAMPIONSHIP RACING (gba) IRIDION 3D (gba) MARIO KART SUPER CIRCUIT (gba) MR. DRILLER 2 (gba) PITFALL: THE MAYAN ADVENTURE (gba) READY 2 RUMBLE BOXING: ROUND 2 (gba) SUPER MARIO ADVANCE (gba) TONY HAWK'S PRO SKATER 2 (gba)
N64 Joystick Repair/LubricationFinal version of the SNES Cheats and Spoilers List. The Code Book effectively replaces it.
