Official New Game Genie Code Thread

[Tony H]

I'm having a tough time finding any Game Genie codes for the Genesis version of Uncharted Waters: New Horizons. Can anyone point me to a few? All I'm seeing is ones for Super Nintendo.

There is one Game Genie code here: https://gamehacking.org/game/16157

I'll take a look tomorrow and see if I can come up with any more.

Thank you so much! I am looking for codes for the UW sequel; sometimes it's just called New Horizons. It would be great to have something out there on the internet. Maybe similar to the codes at that link?

Just to make sure we're talking about the same game, here is a new Game Genie code for the ROM I have called Uncharted Waters. Test this code on a new game and make sure it works. If it does, I'll make some more codes tomorrow.

CBBA-6RPJ
Start a new game with $10,000 gold (instead of $1,000).


EDIT: Looks like the game I'm working on is the original game, so will have to get the ROM for the second game and make codes for that.

[Tony H]

Made a few codes for the first game since I had already started on it. The second game is taking forever to get past the dialog to actually start the game, so not sure how much longer that will take.


Uncharted Waters (Genesis) Game Genie


JD3T-AACR
Stats offered are higher when starting a new game.

L53T-AACR +
S15A-BE2T
Stats offered are much higher when starting a new game, and stat limit is 125 (instead of 100).

CBBA-6RPJ
Start a new game with $10,000 gold (instead of $1,000).

LBBA-6HZJ
Start a new game with $50,000 gold (instead of $1,000).

REZT-E60Y
Don't get charged for goods/cargo in the Market Place, although you still have to have enough to cover the purchase price.

REGA-E6ZL
Don't get charged for weapons/equipment in the Guild, although you still have to have enough to cover the purchase price.

Yeah, I was bored and looked into testing the first code you posted. But once I got started I had no idea what to do, how to see my stats, etc...

The first game (Uncharted Waters) lets you start playing pretty quickly, but like you, I couldn't figure out how to get my stats to show up. I ended up being able to see how much money I had when I entered the shop that is straight up from where you start the game. If I remember correctly, once you board your ship (by pressing down by the dock), I think you can see your stats there.

The second game (New Horizons) has you walking all over the town talking to specific people before it will let you start playing the actual game.

Still haven't talked to everyone in the second game, but I at least got access to the Item Shop to make some codes. Please let me know if they work. I only tested them in the Item Shop, so not sure if they work anywhere else.

New Horizons (Genesis) Game Genie

AVWT-JA7A
Don't get charged in Item Shop, although you still have to have enough to cover the purchase price (may work in other shops as well?).

B3WT-JA60
Don't get charged in Item Shop, works even if you don't have enough money (may work in other shops as well?).

CBVA-JA7N
Lets you enter the Item Shop to buy things if you have zero gold.

[Chimaera]

Just tested it out and those all work great! What a fast turnaround! Awesome that we're still able to tinker around and find new stuff in these old games.

[Tony H]

Glad to hear they worked. I'm out of town for a week, but will work on more codes when I get back.

8CEA-DT46
Stock car has more power (can combine with the "Accelerate much faster" code for even more power).

8CEA-DT6N
Prototype car has more power (can combine with the "Accelerate much faster" code for even more power).

Take turns at full speed (Prototype car).

RE5A-C6TT
Enables mirror mode for Japan version (can race tracks backwards). Keep scrolling right in the Mode Select screen until you see "Virtua Racing" backwards.

[Tony H]

A couple more codes for New Horizons.

If anyone wants any specific codes for this game, let me know. I was going to make some more codes but the game is fairly involved, and not really sure what would be useful.


New Horizons (Genesis) Game Genie

VAYT-5GC2
Start a new game with $5,000.

ZAYT-4C42
Start a new game with $25,000.

Road Rash 2 (Genesis/MD, REV00) Game Genie

AAET-CAAY
7 fastest CPU bikes are much easier to catch up to. The 7 CPU bikes that are way out front and out of sight when you start a race, will be super slow until you pass them, then they will go back to their normal speed.


KRXT-CK8W
Double the amount of top speed boost when using nitro. Having too much acceleration/top speed can cause your bike to intermittently stop for a split second and then speed back up, so be aware if using this code with other bike performance codes.


JGYA-CM44
Double the amount of acceleration boost when using nitro. Having too much acceleration/top speed can cause your bike to intermittently stop for a split second and then speed back up, so be aware if using this code with other bike performance codes.


B6DT-DA2N +
AJDT-CA2J
Your bike is black. Can easily change color by modifying 1st code (use code converter and change 700?, where ? = 0 thru F).


A2DT-DA2N +
AJDT-CA2J
Your bike is dark blue. Can easily change color by modifying 1st code (use code converter and change 700?, where ? = 0 thru F).


AYFA-CAFE
Get 5x as much prize money for finishing level 1 races.


AYFA-CAFG
Get 5x as much prize money for finishing level 2 races.


BM9T-AADR
Getting busted only costs half as much.


A19T-AAEG
Bike repairs only cost half as much.


CXRA-AABW
Start a new game with twice as much player health (this makes it harder for opponents to knock you off your bike).

Hey Tony, what's up?

I miss the collaboration we had going, so I thought I'd come up with some ideas in case you are interested. I have to say though, they're all for games you have already looked into for me, and not all things listed below are things I haven't mentioned before. It's entirely up to you if you're willing to take a look. As always, no hard feelings if you'll pass up It'll be more like notes at first. As always, I can elaborate wherever needed.

Jurassic Park Rampage Edition
This game (and its development) continues to fascinate me.
- There's a prototype that pre-dates the one you got to run by 2 days. Might be interesting to get it to run. But I know the previous one was a lot of work, and with the 2 days it might not be that different.
- Funny, yesterday I accidentally found a prototype screenshot (Flux magazine) with the red hud I previously had never seen until you got the June 22nd prototype to run.
- I wonder why the map screen never moves up to reveal the icons of the final levels. Any idea if that is possible?
- If moving the screen up to reveal the rest of the map (if it exists) is not possible, would switching the levels around be possible? I'm mostly interested in seeing the icons for the levels.
- The Raptor has a lysine power-up. After having grabbed a few (the number depends on the selected difficulty setting), the screen will turn red and the raptor will be invincible for a short time. Enemies die upon touching, and crates (depending on the type) will also either open or explode. Could this effect be replicated (without the red screen) and used as an invincibility code?

Jurassic Park
- The raptor has some extra moves that aren't well known, like taunting and grabbing/holding enemies. But there is one instance where I've seen a raptor scaling/climbing a wall. It happens in the Power Station (level 2) as Grant, after being followed by a raptor. I can get you a screenshot or savegame if you want to see it. But I'm wondering if this is something that can be applied while playing as the raptor.
- There's a prototype screenshot that has a Grant icon instead of a weapon icon. I wonder if this can be recovered in either the final game or in a prototype. Honestly I'm all for testing any codes made for prototypes of my favorite games.

Home Alone
- You've made a bunch a great codes for this game, but it always (no exceptions) freezes on me. I haven't yet been able to figure out why this happens, do you think it might need a Master code? Might test some more today to see if I can figure it out. I'd like to use the codes to train for Expert mode. Would you believe I love this game and never actually mastered the harder mode?

Pirates Of Dark Water
- There's 2 versions of this game (January 1994 and May 1994), is there any way to check them for differences? It's probably just the US and EU versions, though. So far the only difference I've seen is that the January version will not run on PAL settings.
- Do you think it'd be possible to assign a button to swap between selected powerups?

Terminator 2 Judgment Day
- You made a code (ADFT-AA66) that let's you clip through other vehicles during the driving levels, making you invincible. Would it be possible to make a no clip code for the driving levels in general, making it possible to view all of the map?

In general
- In Batman Begins, there's a small introduction scene before the menu comes on. I found a code online that allows you to stop that video and play in it yourself. This is when I learned how demo videos in these games are made. They're not videos, but levels with recorded input. Input that was stopped by using that code. It would resume when disabling the code. Can't think of more from the top of my head, but there might be some interesting scenes in games that can be explored this way.

Edit:
Added Jurassic Park prototype screenshot of Grant icon as well as Gens screenshot with climbing raptor.

Hi GelmiR, a few of those ideas sound interesting, so may take a look at them later. If you figure out any more info on the Home Alone freezing problem, let me know. Does it always freeze in the same place?

A few codes that people requested...


Road Rash 2 (REV00) (Genesis) Game Genie

4DRA-BALW
Less gravity. Using at speeds over 190 MPH can cause your bike to stay in the air too long when going over big jumps/bumps.

4DRA-BZ4W
More gravity. Useful for super fast bikes that you want to get back on the ground quickly when going over jumps.

=======================

Budokan - The Martial Spirit (Genesis) Game Genie

AJTA-AA20
Infinite Stamina.

AJMT-AA8E
Infinite Ki.

RTTA-BTVC
Ki refills faster (both players).

I'd forgotten to test it earlier, and have done so this morning. I turned codes on indivually and saved here/there to make testing easier. In the end, I went full blast and turned on all the codes I kept around. Every previous playthrough, the game would freeze on me. Sadly (but not surprisingly), I haven't been able to replicate it this time. So for the freezing, there really isn't anything to go on at the moment.
