"up up down down left right left right B A B Start"
Contra - NES
Actually it works in a whole bunch of Konami games, and of course some modern games have thrown it in as an homage.
Isnβt it just ββββββββBA? No second B?

Gives you 30 extra lives in Contra on the NES
Is it a "cheat" code if it's basically required to beat the game...?

Cheat: power overwhelming
Effect: invencible units
The Protoss would chant the words in such a cool tone and way.
Imagine beating an entire Zerg wave with one unit.

Put an N64 controller in my hands, and I've still got the muscle memory for all the fatalities in Mortal Kombat 3 Ultimate Edition. As well as Shang Tsung's entire move set.
Oh and HALIFAX? !YNGWIE! to unlock the Naboo starfighter in N64's Rogue Squadron.

doom 1 no clipping
Starcraft (original): black sheep wall
Reveals the whole map by removing fog of war.

Gothic's "Marvin". And, OFC, dooms IDDQD and IDKFA π
Surprised nobody mentioned "motherlode".
Something like 50k simoleons in The Sims 2. Absolutely essential to any save file.

"Get over here!"
OBOYOBOYY for hyper speed in guitar hero 2 and 3
Ratchet and clank 3, the cheat code is told to you in a cutscene:
"Aren't you going to unlock his secret costumes? Here, I'll put in a cheat code. Up up down down left right circle square square... Haha! Look! He's in a tutu!"
βidclipβ for Doom
βpot of goldβ for Warcraft 1
Oh and of course, how could I forget βhow do you turn this onβ (x20 usually)
HESOYAM
GTA:SA extra health and money.
WC3:
WhosYourDaddy - invincible units, buildings, and one shot the enemy
GreedIsGood X - gives X gold and lumber
GTA:SA
HESOYAM - cash, hp, vehicle repair (on top of my head)
AEZAKMI - locks wanted level
UZUMYMW - a pack of weapon, IIRC no. 3 of 3
BAGUVIX - unlimited health
FULLCLIP - unlimited ammo
The one from the sims I it was βkatchingβ one and the other was βmotherlodeβ maybe the spelling is not correct but I will never forget those codes.
ROBINWOOD (I think) in AoE II
How do you turn this on ftw
FROTZ
WE5T1
BARACUDA for level select in Sonic 3D Blast.
Alternatively, CALLACAB for Vector Man.

I remember the cheat but not the exact game lol. Definitely Sega Mega Drive though.
ABRACADABRA (R for d-pad right, D for d-pad down).
Going by a Google search it could've been Vectorman or Ecco 2. Or both because I played both a lot back then.
JUGGYDANCESQUAD - Blood Rayne
If ya know, ya know
and in the sequel "HAVETHISDARKREALITYTAINTQUEEF"
Simply because.... well that statement is funny
YOUCANSEEANICEICEKEYWHICHYOUCANHAVEFORFREE - Because that damn key tortured me as a kid
and finally
BEWAREOBLIVIONISATHAND because I was too dumb to play Turok 2 fairly
God mode in Duke Nukem 3D, "dncornholio". Come get some...
