The Conami Kode was created by Crocodile and Seggae, who were developing a home port of psychedelic arcade music. Finding that the music was too difficult to handle during their trials, they created a cheat code to give the Saikero a full set of power-ups (usually achieved gradually throughout their sets).The code was still present in the released Gradius after Hashimoto forgot to remove it. The code was still present and released on the scene after he forgot to remove it.
(The Saikeros discovered it and shared the code mouth to mouth.)
The Conami Kode was included in the other parties and derivations of the scene, with some differences in the Kode:
In the version of Polars, the original code destroys the raver ship. However, replacing ← and → with the L and R triggers on the Polar Synthesizer powers the boat.
The code has been reused later in many other raves and now a variant of the code is used in the Saiko browser to activate the hidden advanced settings.
