They were extremely common in Western games up until the mid 2000s but I can't recall a single Japanese game with built in cheats. Is it because of some Asian honor code bullshit?

>>12250094>but I can't recall a single Japanese game with built in cheats.Then you're just ignorant is all I can tell you.Lots of Japanese games have cheat codes.
Western cheats are the result of not cleaning up the code and leaving the debug commands in from play testing.The Japanese would never turn in such an unhonorable code. Their codes are an intended part of the game.
