The Konami Code (Japanese: ???????, Konami komando, "Konami command") is a cheat code that appears in many Konami video games, although the code also appears in some non-Konami games. The player could press the following sequence of buttons on the game controller to enable a cheat or other effects:

????<--><-->BA

The code has also found a place in popular culture as a reference to the third generation of video game consoles. The code is also present as an Easter egg on a number of websites.

History

The code was first used in the 1986 release of Gradius for the NES and was popularized among North American players in the NES version of Contra, for which it was also dubbed both the "Contra Code" and "30 Lives Code".

The Konami Code was created by Kazuhisa Hashimoto, who was developing the home port of the 1985 arcade game Gradius, a scrolling shooter released on the NES in 1986. Finding the game too difficult to play through during testing, he created a cheat code to give the player a full set of power-ups (normally attained gradually throughout the game). After entering the sequence using the controller when the game was paused the player received all available power-ups. The mistake was discovered after the release, but developers decided to leave it there, as removing it could result in new bugs and glitches. The sequence was easy enough to remember for testers and simultaneously sufficiently hard to enter accidentally during the gameplay for unsuspecting users.

The Konami Code was thus included in the series' other sequels and spin-offs, with some key differences:

  • In the Super NES version of Gradius III, the original code destroys the player's ship. However, replacing <- and -> with the L and R triggers of the SNES controller powers up the ship.
  • In the most recent iteration of the series--Gradius Rebirth on the Wii--the Wii Remote's 1 and 2 buttons fill in for A and B, respectively.

The code has been subsequently re-used in a large number of other games and a varied version of the code is now used in the Opera Browser to activate hidden advanced settings.

References outside of Konami games

The code was also referenced by American Post-hardcore band Falling in Reverse in their song "Game Over". In the song, lead vocalist Ronnie Radke utters the line "Up Up Down Down Left Right Left Right B A Select Start".

Electronic artist Technicolor released the 2016 track "Contra Code" which features the code as lyrics to the track, and has been rumored to appear in the upcoming "Wreck-It Ralph" sequel.

The Ataris' 2001 album End Is Forever contains the track "Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start".

The Moldy Peaches' 2001 song Anyone Else but You contains the lyrics "Up up down down left right left right B A start / Just because we use cheats doesn't mean we're not smart."

The band Deftones referenced the Konami Code in the title for the instrumental song "U,U,D,D,L,R,L,R,A,B,Select,Start" on their 2006 album Saturday Night Wrist.

The Motion Sick's "30 Lives" is specifically about using the code to spend 30 lives with a partner, and it uses the code in the bridge. The song was also included in several Dance Dance Revolution games, which require players to dance the code along to the song.

The 2012 film Wreck-It Ralph features a scene in which King Candy uses the code to open a secret passage leading to Sugar Rush's programming.

The Konami Code has been used to create easter eggs on a number of webpages. For example, East Jordan Church Online features an Easter egg on the homepage in which entering the code causes the site elements to fall apart.

In 2017, the Bank of Canada placed an Easter egg on its website promoting its new $10 bill. Typing the Konami code on the website plays the national anthem and fills the screen with animated banknotes or fireworks.

The website for the video game Overwatch displays raining images of one of its characters, D.Va upon the user reciting the Konami Code.

When a user recites the Konami Code to Alexa, the virtual assistant, she attempts to activate "Super Alexa Mode."

Some Sony devices with built-in Netflix apps use a variation of the code (????<--><--> ???) to let you log out of Netflix.

Variations

The original version of the cheat code was designed for the NES controller. The exact sequence varies from game to game and has been adapted to fit the button layouts of different video game consoles, mostly the A and B buttons. For example:

  • Any code for a PlayStation controller, which uses shapes instead of letters, would use "×, ?", appearing even in Konami's Dance Dance Revolution series, input on the dance pad.
  • In mobile phone games by Konami, they are replaced by 5 7 3 on the numerical pad, which is the goroawase pronunciation for "konami"; 5 is pronounced go, 7 can be pronounced nana or just na for short, and 3 is usually pronounced as 'san' but has an alternative pronunciation of 'mi'. Together, this becomes go-na-mi.
  • 573 is also used extensively in the Dance Dance Revolution series; the original board for DDR 1stMIX (also used in many other Konami designs) was called System 573, the maximum combo in several difficult songs (such as MAX 300) is 573, highscores often start out at 573 000 or similar, and so on.

These deviations may occur for purely operational reasons (e.g., if the code must be entered while the game is paused, the code might be altered to avoid resuming), to keep powerful upgrades better concealed while still referencing Konami, or through a programming error.

Curiously, the "B" and "A" buttons were switched for the code when used in the 1991 NES game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III: The Manhattan Project.

Despite the differences, though, these codes are still often referred to in general discussion as "Konami Code", "Conami Kode", or, less commonly, "Pseudo-Konami Code".

A common misconception is that the code ends with Start or Select Start. In many titles, the player must press Start after entering the code in order to start a game, or press Select to switch to two-player mode and then start the game, leading to the confusion.

  • Gradius II (PC Engine) - Pausing the game and enter the code ????<--><-->III to activate full power. This code works more than once on Easy mode.
  • Nemesis (GB) - Pausing the game and entering the code will give the player full options.
  • Gradius III (Super Famicom/Super NES) - Normally entering the code while paused activates all powerups, but the player's ship is instantly destroyed upon unpausing. The player must enter the code by substituting <- and -> on the d-pad with the L and R shoulder buttons to apply the power-ups without penalty.
  • Gradius III (PS2) - Pausing the game and entering ????<--><-->×? will activate all power-ups and the Laser weapon. Alternately, pressing ? and ? in place of × and ? will activate the Double weapon with the other power-ups.
  • Parodius! From Myth to Laughter (GB) - Pausing the game and entering the code activates all powerups except for Speed Up and Double. Entering the code when the Konami Logo appears enables the Sound Test mode.
  • Parodius! From Myth to Laughter (Super Famicom/Super NES) - Pausing the game and entering the code destroys the player upon resuming. However, entering BBXXAYAY?<- and resuming will fully power up the player. The second code uses the same finger-movements when the Super NES controller is held upside-down.

  • Gradius Gaiden (PS) - Pausing the game and entering the code ????<--><-->×? will result in a power up.
  • Gradius Galaxies (GBA) - Normally entering the code while paused activates all powerups, but the player is instantly destroyed upon unpausing. However, if the player enters the code and substitutes the L and R buttons for <- and ->, the powerups are applied without penalty. Entering ????-><--><-AB will result in full powerups, but subtracts one life per use. ????RLRLAB gives full powerups followed shortly by self-destruction.
  • Gradius IV Fukkatsu (PS2, PSP) - Pausing the game and entering the code activates all powerups except for Speed Up and Double.

  • Gradius ReBirth (Wii) - Pausing the game and entering this code will give the player's ship four options.

Contra series

  • Contra (NES) - Entering the code at the title screen gives the player 30 lives. If the two-player option is picked using the Select button before or after entering the code, both players will have 30 lives. In the Japanese version, the 30 lives code can be used alongside a stage select code exclusive to that version. The codes were removed from the special Contra 4 version.
  • Super C (NES) - Entering the code(-><-??ABStart) before the title screen appears, gives the player 10 lives in US version of the game while in Japanese version the code gives 30 lives. If the two-player option is picked using the Select button before or after entering the code, both players will have 10 lives. This is different than the original game which offered 30 lives to a player. The codes were not included from the special Contra 4 version. To access sound mode in Japanese/US version enter the code Hold(AB) and press Start. For stage select in Japanese version at the title screen, press and hold ? on the crosspad, while holding it press Start and immediately hold Select. If done correctly the player should see the stage select screen.
  • Operation C (GB) - Entering the code at the title screen (followed B and A again) will enable the Stage Select mode. Choose the desired stage by pressing Select and press Start to begin.This code can give the player 10 lives in the Japanese version (Stage Select is default)
  • Contra: Shattered Soldier (PS2) - At the title screen, pressing ????L1R1L2R2L3R3 on the second controller gives the player 30 lives upon starting the game.
  • Neo Contra (PS2) - Same as Contra: Shattered Soldier
  • Contra 4 (DS) - When the game first starts on Stage 1, inputting the Konami Code via the Touch Screen (top of screen twice, bottom of screen twice, left side, right side, left side, right side, B, A, center of screen) before the player lands on the ground will award 30 lives. Entering the code with the normal buttons during play in the Pause menu will power-up whatever weapons the player is currently carrying. The code can only be entered once per stage, as inputting it a second time will kill off the player, taking away a life. This code has no effect on the Easy setting, where all the weapons picked by the player are upgraded by default. The codes were removed from the unlockable emulated bonus versions of NES Contra and NES Super C due to legal reasons.
  • Hard Corps Uprising (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) Before starting the first stage, enter the code when the loading screen is shown (a sound will confirm it) and the usual background music will be replaced with the Jungle theme from the original Contra. Entering the code at the title screen with L3 and R3 as the button presses will unlock a 30 lives powerup for purchase in Rising Mode.
  • Super Contra (Xbox Live Arcade) Enter the code to receive unlimited lives (the life counter will remain at 4) and the most powerful gun in the game (collecting gun powerups will also not affect the weapon used). The player can not get any achievement while playing with the code.

The Probotector versions of the games also allow use of the code.

Castlevania series

  • Akumaj? Special: Boku Dracula-kun (Family Computer) - Entering the code at the title screen will display a black screen with the text "There's nothing here!" in Japanese. In the unofficial translation hack of the game, this was reworded as "Sorry, that won't work!".
  • Castlevania: Bloodlines (Mega Drive/Genesis) - Entering the code at the title screen (a sound will confirm it) enables the selection of the Expert difficulty in the option screen. The code also gives the player the possibility of starting the game with 9 lives if it is entered at the title screen after the music settings in the option screen have been set to BGM 05 and SE 073.
  • Castlevania Chronicles (PS) - Entering ????<--><-->X? on the title screen will take the player to a hidden options menu that allows them to adjust the "system time" and turn on-off the transparency of the status bar in Original mode. The system time affects small things in the game, like the hands on the clock tower.
  • Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance (GBA) - Entering the code when the Konami logo appears and choose Boss Rush to play as the original Simon Belmont, with the music and animations from the original Castlevania for NES. While significantly harder due to the limited movement of Simon Belmont, the player can do more damage with this character and collect far more hearts to fuel subweapon use against the bosses than the other two characters. Simon is also limited to special weapons from the first game: Holy Water, Knife, Axe, and Cross. (Additionally, the Holy Water weapon gives the "static flame" from the original Castlevania, not the moving flame from when Juste uses it.)
  • Castlevania: Lords of Shadow (Xbox 360, PlayStation 3) - Entering it at the load screen of a level (with analog sticks) and the player gets a cheat menu at the extras point.

In the Japanese Famicom version (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2), the game will display a message from Konami saying "Thank You for Purchasing This Game" in Japanese. In order for the code to work properly, the functions of each button must be reversed (????-><--><-AB).

  • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (GBA) - Entering the code at the title screen unlocks Very Hard Mode.

  • Dance Dance Revolution 2ndMix (Arcade, PS) - The Single steps on Basic difficulty for the song "Make A Jam!" include the directional portion of the code (i.e. without B or A) five times throughout the song.

  • Dance Dance Revolution Extreme (Arcade, PS2) - All charts for the song "Twinbee ~Generation X~" contain the directional portion of the Konami Code as part of their charts, and the doubles charts all contain the sequence on the left pad, a reference to the code traditionally being entered by player 1.
