Could someone please try to make these codes? since there are no cheats at all for the USA version of this game.

1. Unlimited lives
2. Unlimited life bar
3. Start level with a certain item or don't lose item after dying?

I'm ordering my USB Gecko so hopefully I'll be able to start making my own codes soon :)

Ok with the help of a few hackers here and a lot of testing and playing around I have come up with the codes that I wanted to beging with. For anyone else that might want them. Here they are.

in what bit, memory range, or method you search? I been searching and was on bed (sick) :'(

I started searching in 32 bit range, also 16-bit, but I found easier to find what I was looking for in 8-bit. Well for this game anyways.

So the Weapon code I found it doing 8-bit searches and also the infinite health code. The Infinite lives code I found it easy in 32-bit searches, the Unlimited Golden Melons code I found it easy in 32-bit and 16-bit searches however getting it to work without freezing the game was a huge task. g6flavor pointed out that I could use a what if code to make it work and Romaap made the code for me.

With things like lives, it is probably very easy to just search in 8-bit. So if you have 8 lives, search for 08, lose a life and search for 07, lose a life and search for vule is not the same as last value. Then search again for the espesific value, then for value is less than previous value etc...

Mix it up and it should narrow it down quickly. Basically you only want 1 result. Then poke and try losing a life. With lives remember that sometimes the counter shows 4 lives but you have 5 because of the life you are currently using.

For the unlimited health I used the same method. I searched for an unknown 8-bit value, then I just kept doing this. Value is less than previous value, value is not the same, value is greater than before, value is not the same, value is less etc...

For the Inf melons code. Just go to the shop and search for what you have, spent some melons and search again, get some melons and search again etc... But the code only works in the shop so I needed something else so that it didn't affect the game in other areas besides the shop. So Romaap helped me creating a code that only changes the value where is needed.

See this post

I also used this posted by another member to change the codes depending on how I searched for them.


00= 8bit scan, 80000000 memory range
01= 8 bit scan, 81000000 memory range
02= 16 bit scan 80000000 memory range
03 = 16 bit scan, 81000000 memory range.
04= 32 bit scan, 80000000 memory range
05= 32 bit scan, 81000000 memory range

an example:
the memory adress is 8159437 and I want the value stored there 999. I did a 16 bit scan

8159437 000003E7 is what you would get without code types.
0359437 000003E7 is with them. notice the first 2 values changed. thats where you put the code types.

Seems the codes do not work for me except for the Infinite Lives.

The codes I posted are my working codes for the USA version. They should work for you, if you have the USA version. I tried them all and they all work fine for me. Anyone else that can test them?
