[Request] Robopon 64 (N64)

[Shellshocker18]

Hello. I recently spent a hundred + hours completing all the content in Shiren the Wanderer 2 for the purposes of better documenting the game in English, I couldn't have finished Shiren 2 in any reasonable timeframe without the max health and max power gameshark codes I got from this site, so if somebody could help out with Robopon 64 it would be greatly appreciated. Preferably I would like a code that locks my health in place, rather than increasing my health to 999 or something and glitching the health meters, i want my screenshots to look natural. sorry I have no idea how to make codes myself, I hope its not too much trouble. I know the game is shorter and easier than Shiren but these codes would save me a lot of time and stress trying to play legit with my limited Japanese knowledge.

I'm having trouble finding the right game. What other names does it go by? There are a few games with similar names, but not an exact match.

EDIT: Is it any of these?...

Robot Ponkotsu 64 - 7tsu no Umi no Caramel
Robot Ponkotsu 64 - Nanatsu no Umi no Caramel
Robotron 64

Thanks Terpsfan101. My ROM supplier has 2 different ROMs for that game (7tsu no Umi no Caramel, and Nanatsu no Umi no Caramel). Will wait for ShellShocker18 to verify which is the right one. Also, since this is his first post, I want to make sure he's serious about his request. Lots of people will come here for the first time to make a code request, and never come back to see if it was filled.

Don' worry guys I am serious. You guys are gods. There is only 1 N64 Robopon game, my rom is also 7tsu no Umi no Caramel, so use that one I suppose. Thanks in advance!

This is the one I will use to make codes for... Robot Ponkotsu 64 - 7tsu no Umi no Caramel (J) [!].z64

EDIT: Since it's Japanese, and an RPG, I hope I can figure out what's going on. lol

[Tony H]

Ok, I have no idea what's going on in this game, but I think I figured out a Game Shark code for infinite health in battle. The code only appears to affect the actual number of your HP, and not the bar, but I don't think you die if the bar reaches zero. Let me know if it works. You can easily adjust the number that shows up on the screen if you'd like by changing the 4 digit hex number on the right. I've set it at 22 (16 in hex) since that's the starting number of HP that you have.

Did a quick test and it's not working for me. When I get hit the health bar goes down and at 0 my Robopon faints. I even chaged the final 4 digits from 16 down to 12 to see if my health numbers would change, but they didn't. I am playing on an Everdrive 64 for the record, though I doubt that has anything to do with it working, as Robopon doesn't need or use the expansion pak.

Do you have a clean .z64 file? Maybe it is my rom

[Tony H]

Probably a different version of the ROM. Will check it out when I get home from work.

[Tony H]

Do you remember where you got your ROM from? If you know, please send me a PM with the link. It's against the rules to post ROM links here, so private message only.


EDIT: I noticed that the checksum on my ROM is different than the one on the site. Must be at least two different ROMs floating around.

[Tony H]

Just got the ROM from the same place you did, and the checksum even matches the one in the db here. The Game Shark code is still the same...

Here's a picture to make sure we're talking about the same "battle". If you look at the HP amount towards the top left, my code forced it to 084, with a max HP of 022...

[Shellshocker18]

Yes that is the same battle screen. I will report back in the morning when I get a chance to test again

[Tony H]

Here's another code for infinite fuel. Not sure what that thing is that you sail around in, but I'll just call it a fish.

Infinite fuel when sailing on water in your "Fish". The "fuel" is the 3 digit number in the top left corner.

Okay, so one of my friends tested on project 64 and says the codes are working for him. He says that if he toggled them on they would only activate after moving to a new area (he toggled the fuel cheat he on while on the water, but it didn't start functioning until he went to an island or battle and came back). He gave me his rom so they are exactly the same, but these do not work on my everdrive 64 at all for some reason. i'm not sure of the reason because I've never used project64 but maybe the gameshark versions are different? I know that some codes also require the Expansion Pak, but since on Everdrive just using gameshark requires the expansion pak maybe I can't simultaneously use these codes? I'm trying to find a solution here. I thought maybe Robopon needs a Master Code of some sort but it doesn't seem like it

[Tony H]

Just an FYI, the infinite HP code is a RAM type code which constantly writes the value you use into RAM. The infinite fuel code is an assembly code which changes the programming of the game (in this case, it stops it from subtracting from your fuel).

Have no idea why it isn't working on your Everdrive. Will investigate later.
