@technotreegrass ABBA ABBA sadly doesn't work anymore as far as I've tried! In my days we only used it in the event of a powercut or if we had to stop for whatever highly annoying reason.. you know like eating, sleeping, homework, school...I wish I could portal myself back to the easy going 90s.
If you want to enjoy these games, then you have to play them without using the cheat features, otherwise each game will feel very short! In my days of playing these (early to mid 90s), we didn't even have a load or save option. We were hooked, and game over only made us feel even more determined and start from scratch. Yes, from the very beginning. Seeing our lives drop to 3, 2 and 1 was very exciting and nerve wracking, something today's generation will sadly never experience! The only exception being that if your younger sibling or parents turned off the console without asking us first, or we had a powercut, it was a whole different story! Well, fortunately if this happened, Aladdin (SEGA version) had a password a couple of people mentioned on here. You press pause, and you press A,BB,A A,BB,A and magically you're moved on to the next level. (I've tried it on the switch version but it doesn't work). Oh, and using it as a cheat was not a cool thing to do! As for the price, they should really do the moral thing in this case and make it a bit cheaper - either for nostalgia-seeking gamers like me, or to encourage our offspring to pick it up! Pity Capcom didn't join the party, else the price tag could have been justified.
