 		I've been looking, and I can't find that code being used for that game. But it's a valid code for its predecessor...

 		Thanks, Zaeil!
I don't know about these games, but is this code for *two* versions?
On that same link you gave:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Fight as same character:

Note: A six-button controller is required to enable this code.
Press Down, Z, Up, X, A, Y, B, C on controller two at the battle mode screen that allows either match play or elimination rules to be enabled. A sound will confirm correct code entry. The same character may be selected more than one time.

Turbo champion mode:

Note: A six-button controller is required to enable this code.
Press Down, Z, Up, X, A, Y, B, C at the Street Fighter 2 logo.

Is that 2 *modes* in the same game, or is it 2 different games, with *Turbo* being part of the name?!?

I have just as many questions about some of the others! Confused


Mind Candy, Can we PLEASE have a multiple choice drop-down for this one??? Crying or Very sad

Street Fighters II (2?)
Sim City (SimCity?)
Doom
The Sims (Sims?)
Super Mario Kart
Another World
Tomb Raider

Hmm... On second look of the top 20, I see this is one of those that *none* of us have! This is nuts! Confused

 		Ooh, Cassandra! That was post #333! Shocked (enter Twilight zone music)
Yeah, this one scares me! Punctuation, version, different games altogether, or something as stupid as needing a *space* after each one! ARRRGH!

 		#2 could also be

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition


Then again 1, 2, 4, 7, and 8 could all be two things...argh...i wonder how many combinations of all the answers, PLUS the different ways you could write numbers (II, or 2), PLUS punctuation it would take to get the right one....gotta love it

 		I would have hoped they would use some kind of fairly lenient regular expression to check for these.

eg. The Street Fighter II one would let you get way with any entry than included the text "Street Fighter".

Maybe they'll get it fixed soon, or someone will find the correct combination and we can all copy it!

SF2 Turbo is a different game. As near as I can tell, both of these codes just refer to SF2, but when input at different times, our #2 activates a different mode. See, in your excerpt, the first code is entered on the battle mode selection screen, and the second is entered on the logo screen for a different effect.

When in doubt, I say go for the original game. Smile

EDIT: Well, this should settle something. Street Fighter II Turbo is the SNES version, and since its controller has only 4 buttons, it can't have this code!

 		From what research I have done, it seems the version of Street Fighter II released for the Sega Genesis (Megadrive) was called "Street Fighter II: Special Champion Edition".

 		I can't believe they didn't even apologise for getting it wrong. Hours wasted...

 		It irritates me so badly that I play so many video games and can't get this one... Mad

Anyway, today I tried:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Attempt 1:
Contra (it's an awful lot like the Contra Code, so I thought I'd try)
Street Fighter 2
SimCity
Doom
The Sims
Super Mario Kart
Out of This World
Tomb Raider
Wing Commander
Jet Set Willy

Attempt 2:
K-1 The Arena Fighters
(all the rest the same as #1)

Attempt 3:
K-1: The Arena Fighters
Street Fighter II
(all the rest the same as #1)


Also, for #1, DDR 2nd Remix has a similar code, but as far as I can tell, there's no "start" at the end. I've never played DDR, so I have no clue, but I imagine there's a start button somewhere on the machine. Anyone?

Well DDR for playstation (I'll admit I have it... I'm so sorry...) came with a mat that has all of the arrows as well as start and select pads.
So theoretically it works that way.

However, as far as I remember (again I'm really sorry I know this) putting codes in just meant stepping on the right arrows really quickly, you never had to press start or select, the codes just got put in as you pressed them...
