  • The Site's New Format

    I am sorry, but I find the new format of this website to be far less user-friendly and informative compared to the previous format. In the old style, it was very easy to navigate through each system and game with ease. More importantly, each game had a dedicated page for each cheating code format which made finding Game Genie codes especially easier and more efficient. Not only that, but there were useful notes posted with each code and if a particular game (like Super Mario Bros. 2) had more than one version, each version had its own separate page. Is there any way the old website format will return? It was a more reliable website.

    Games are listed alphabetically, and can be searched.
    Every code for a game is on one page, but can be filtered for each device using the form at the top of the codes. That way you can only see Genie codes.
    You can see a game's notes by expanding the code box ("V" button), or by using simple view.
    Every version has a separate page, though all of the codes may not be separated yet.

    The old site is not coming back, and was not more reliable for these reasons.
    Codes were spread out all over the place. The new one converts all codes for each device to every format the code will be supported on. Game Genie codes were spread out as well, between the official and user-made codes. Not to mention the bsfree database was separate as well.
    There were multiple games that had spelling errors in their titles, which made it hard to search for them. The new site's titles are from No-Intro, Tosec, Good, etc.
    More reasons than that.

    If there is something you don't like about the new site, ask. A feature is either available and you don't know it, like most of the stuff you mentioned, or there are changes I can make to make it better.

      By the way, your post made me look at the default views, and I also found a bug that wasn't filtering out codeless games, so that's fixed.

      I made the default view (for not logged in/unregistered/new) for viewing games the table view with 50 items per page.

      Is there anyone that likes, and maybe even prefers the grouped game view?

          Since you are the second one to request it, I believe I will do that.

            thanks this is better than groups, by the way, to make it more better, can you increase the number of items per page to 200 ? because some letters contains more than 50 games.

                  What's wrong with the pagination?

                    by default value is 50 item per page, so when i change it to 100 or 200 or anything it backs to 50. i talk about guests not registred users.

                      Alright, I get that. I can work on that. My question was, what's wrong with the pagination? Even though there are 50 per page, you can still go to the next page.

                        well, some letters contains more than 50 game, so it will be better if it shows all games that begin with the choosen letter. (if we chose letter "C", it shows all "C" games).
