Helder's Sega Saturn Codes

[Hacc]

The pad addresses can be found the same way as PS1. I've corrected my personal list to match this one. I use to just view my SS dumps in PS2DIS. The values were in little-endian format. I was mainly after button cheats (keep forgetting to post the ones I found). Here are the button values:

Even though the Saturn Gameshark is limited, there should be some good codes to be made like Invincibility you think?


A little off topic:
I have a model 1 Saturn. Best Xmas gift I ever recieved back in 1996. I also have the Saturn Gameshark too. I bought it way back when at Toys R' Us lol. I actually bought it, brought it home and it didn't work (so I thought). I brought it back and they only had 2 at the store. I exchanged for the other one and brought it home to try it and it wouldn't work either. I found out that the contacts on the Gameshark were not quite fitting in the Saturn. So to make it wok I have to put it in, and pull it up a bit so the contacts match.

I had a similar issue with mine recently but way back in the day it worked fine, I just said screw it and use my PAR/Ram cart/4in1 which does the same.

Would you be able to find any codes for Nekketsu Oyako - Hot Blooded Family (J)?

If I can find the iso I can look at it.

Do you test your codes on an actual Saturn using a cheat device? Joker command codes are possible since I saw some posted on a Japanese site when I was figuring out how to use CEP with SSF. I knew they were since the AR has the "D" command. I'm not sure what commands the GameShark has. I don't have any requests at the moment.

I should be contributing some ASM codes once I figure out the Yabause debugger. My unreleased RAM hacks need to be formatted properly (not many). This was when I was using RAM dumps made with Yabause, and didn't know that the Saturn used big-endian.

Just tested them on the Emulator but the addresses all match existing codes so I bet they will work,as for the D type code we just need to find the pad read address for the game and instant Joker lol. I will test the codes out in my real Hardware when I get the chance.

Just made some new Game Shark/PAR codes for Radiant Silvergun (J), these are ASM so they cover both player. I hope to add more codes and more games to this thread as I make them, feel free to contribute or request something but be aware the Saturn has very few code types which limit what can be made.
