It is a code whose address is a position in RAM, that tells when a button on the controller is pressed!
Does every game have a Joker Command?
Yes, EVERY GAME has a Joker Command, but some are non-normal and non-reverse joker commands!
What does a Joker Command do?
It is used to avoid lockups during the intros or various places in the game or when you only want to activate codes at a certain time and not constantly have the effect of the code. ITS PURPOSE IS TO ACTIVATE CODES AT THE TOUCH OF A BUTTON!
Can you activate all codes from a Joker Command?
Yes. All you have to do, is to put in the Joker Command Code in the Master Code Section, otherwise it will just turn on the code that is below it.
Once I have the Joker Command in, how do i use it?
Well if you are using the Joker Command in a regular code box, not Master Code section, then when you press the button/s specified by the Quantity Digits below, the value that you change the '????' to, inside of the game, it will activate the code you have put in under the Joker Command code. If if was put in the Master Code Section it would activate all codes when that button was pressed!
If Entering a Joker Comand in Normal Code Section.
Be sure to enter the code that you want the Joker Command to activate RIGHT UNDERNEATH of the Joker Command Code!
EXAMPLE USAGE
Say you have Infinite Health for a game. The Infinite Health code is 8012 C04C 00AA and the Joker Command is D001 2876 ???? and it is a Normal Joker Command. AND in the game Select doesnt do anything! Well, take a look at the Quantity Digits and you will see that Select is value 0100 for a Normal Joker Command. So you enter the following codes D001 2876 0100 and direct under it 8012 C04C 00AA. Now when you are in the game with this code on, when you press Select it will refill your energy! Or if you hold Select and no other buttons it will give you Infinite Health! HOWEVER, once you let go of Select, you no longer have Infinite Health, so get a little further in the level, you notice that you have lost some energy, so press Select to FILL back up your energy. And so on!
