NES GG Dictionary By Cheatmaster (tlucas@inlink.com) Your official purveyor of uselesss information! Ask about my equally useless Game Gear Handbook (who owns a Game Gear GG?) and Genesis code converter (who owns a Genesis GG?)! Just how many words can you make from the NES character set? This list (if it can ever be completed....) could be used to plug in interesting and new random codes for games. Note that this list doesn't contain 5- or 7-character words with extra "padding" to make them fit. Also, 6-character codes are those that the Game Genie decides to break after the 6th letter. None of those "6 letters in a 8-letter blank" codes here.... (Although, remarkably, such codes actually work) Many, MANY thanx to my little pocket electronic dictionary, for automatically searching out a lot of these words. It's a shame it has the tendency to make up words.... If anyone out there knows what a pilaus or a patine is, PLEASE let me know.... Finally, some words were omitted from this list for the sake of your mothers. If you want to know what they were, pull out your dictionary.... 6 characters: 170 words!!! (Note that I probably missed a lot) ALIENS ALIGNS ALLEGE ALLIES ALINES <-- Well, my pocket dictionary says it's a word....
