Notes:NCAA Basketball (SNES)

Game Options codes
Instead of having a stored pattern of controller button presses to compare against, this game uses specific 16-bit values, much like Alien Storm for the Genesis.

When pressing d-pad right or left on the Game Options menu following the title screen, a rotate left operation is performed on memory address. If pressing right, the value is also incremented by one. These are the same operations used in Roger Clemens' MVP Baseball, another game by Sculptured Software.

By pressing the right combination so that the final total is or, the cheats are unlocked.

Here is a detailed look at both sequences:

20 second halves
$CAF2

(stores to  after entry)

right 0000 << 1 = 0000 0000 + 1 = 0001

right 0001 << 1 = 0002 0002 + 1 = 0003

left 0003 << 1 = 0006

left 0006 << 1 = 000C

right 000C << 1 = 0018 0018 + 1 = 0019

left 0019 << 1 = 0032

right 0032 << 1 = 0064 0064 + 1 = 0065

left 0065 << 1 = 00CA

right 00CA << 1 = 0194 0194 + 1 = 0195

right 0195 << 1 = 032A 032A + 1 = 032B

right 032B << 1 = 0656 0656 + 1 = 0657

right 0657 << 1 = 0CAE 0CAE + 1 = 0CAF

left 0CAF << 1 = 195E

left 195E << 1 = 32BC

right 32BC << 1 = 6578 6578 + 1 = 6579

left 6579 << 1 = CAF2

Instant win/lose
