This site is editable by anybody, including you. To create a new page, change this page's URL to include its name, for example:

http://www.smspower.org/cheats/Sonic the Hedgehog

See the template page for an example template to help get a consistent structure, or click the "edit" link on any page to see how the Wiki formatting is done. It's easy!

Please only enter cheats you have tested and verified as working and try to add screenshots where it is helpful and/or illustrates the effect (ie. proving that the cheat is genuine). If you want to add screenshots, email or PM me to get the uploading password.

As for guides, walkthroughs, FAQs, etc - maybe later, but not now. The SMS FAQ Completion Project is perhaps a better place for that.

Button press format

The format for describing button presses is:

[Up][Down][Left][Right][1][2] - press and release the corresponding directions (Up, Down, Left, Right) and buttons (1, 2), one after another.

[Up]+[Left]+[1]+[2] - press and hold the corresponding buttons, generally in the order given, and release them all (unless told to hold them). However, in most cases it is only necessary that the last button be the last one pressed, the rest can be held in any order.

[Up]x10,[1] - press and release the button the given number of times (the same as [Up][Up][Up][Up][Up][Up][Up][Up][Up][Up][1] but easier to read).
