Would it be better to post cheats like this:
Code: Select all
:game0001:62000000:000000:00:FF:Select Health P1
:game0001:00010000:000001:FF:FF:Infinite
:game0001:00010001:000001:00:FF:Drain Now!
... or this?
Code: Select all
:game0001:00000000:000001:FF:FF:Infinite Health P1
:game0001:00000001:000001:00:FF:Drain Health Now! P1

IMO, it's better to have such cheats in the 2nd "format" as they are more intuitive for the end-users who may have the habits of them since 1998 or perhaps even earlier ...
"List" cheats should be limited to :
- weapons select
- characters select
- stage select
As usual, any comments are welcome ...

I concur, the second 'traditional' format is better, both for old times sake and Drain Now! cheats are more suitable for use with an activation key
