  • This code appears in some Konami Video Games and in other Video Games. This code is executed in the next way: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A,B,A select, start
  • The Konami Code has since become a pop culture sensation. Why? Because Shigeru Miyamoto said so! That's why, you ungrateful little... nevermind. The Konami Code is celebrated around the world (by "around the world", we mean in all countries that start with the word "Mushroom"). It is also a thing people say when something happens. Example: *something happens* Robin: Holy Konami Code Batman!
  • Some games of the Silent Hill franchise have employed the use of the code in unlocking a hidden easter egg. In all instances, the Konami Code unlocks an alternate costume for a male character.
  • The Konami Code is a well-known cheat code that is used in many video games and in other places as well. In the next Bloon Tower Defense game, it may be typed to use it in its classic way - obtaining 30 lives. After using it once, you must wait five games before it will work this way again. However, it will still work to pop open Konami Bloons, which can only be popped by typing it. You will not get extra lives for typing the code while Konami Bloons are on the screen.
  • The Konami Code (known as the Konami Command in Japan) is a famous recurring cheat code in various Konami developed video games. It was identified by pressing "Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, and A" (or in the case of PlayStation games, "Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, O, and X"). Because the Metal Gear series has been published by Konami, they have also incorporated the Konami Code at various points, or at the very least referenced it.
  • The Konami Code is a specific version of the Classic Cheat Code, and is one of the most popular variants in video game history. While the code first appeared in the Nintendo Entertainment System version of Gradius, it became famous for its use in Contra. Named for Konami, the video game company that made it. Although games from other companies will give a Shout-Out.

  • The Konami Code is a specific version of the Classic Cheat Code, and is one of the most popular variants in video game history. While the code first appeared in the Nintendo Entertainment System version of Gradius, it became famous for its use in Contra. The typical form is the directional combination followed by two buttons and then start and/or select, though most of the time, start is just pressed to start the game and not part of the cheat code proper. As the code is used on Konami games of various systems, the actual buttons will vary. For the examples listed below that include a select before the start, in Contra, select was used to select a 2-player game after entering the code. Named for Konami, the video game company that made it. Although games from other companies will give a Shout-Out. The weird thing was that for such a universally well-known code, it's hardly been seen at all since the NES, and most of the time it just gives the player a little easter egg or even does something harmful. And of course, it won't work on any game that doesn't use a standard controller (which rules out everything under the Bemani label) or a console that doesn't have an A or B button (like, oh, everything Sony has released ever).
