Nope, it's the infamous Konami code. In Contra, if you entered the code you would get 9 lives. It has lived on ever since in other games from Konami, the most recent appearance was on the PS2 and X-box.

Worked on most if not all Nintendo games - you had to do it really fast before the game fully loaded

I need to get a game system I think. We bought this really cheesy billion games in a hand controler thingy. Worked great except for that you couldn't duck. No down button leads to often, early deaths!

Get a DS and a Wii, both from Nintendo. The DS has alot of great games, I just killed Dracula in the newest Castlevania game, flippin' sweet...
And on the Wii, they are going to eventually let you buy and download nearly every single game ever released for a Nintendo system (NES, SNES, N64, Gamecube).

You like your Wii? - didn't they just recall a bunch of them? What was that about?
Castlevanina - cool game! I think the last time I played that it was for nintendo 64 - would that be right?

I don’t like the Wii because according to the commercials, you have to physically play a game.
I don’t want anything moving except my thumbs and fingers (and my arm with a bottle of beer to my mouth).

Bubble Bobble was a big part of my gaming childhood. Had it on Game Boy, it did not hold up well...
They recalled the wriststrap on the Wiimote, they replaced it with a bigger strap. Some people have had problems with the Wiimote flying out of their hands and breaking things.

Two dinosaurs (Bub and Bob) blew bubbles to trap baddies in, then you popped the bubbles to kill the baddies. In fact, I have the theme song on my phone as a ringtone...
