What's in the vault
Codes, cross-checked
28 GameShark and Game Genie codes, each one carrying the source it was verified against. Where a release shipped in more than one revision, the codes are tagged by revision so a working code is not filed next to a dead one.
Easter eggs and secrets
17 documented easter eggs, with the exact input or condition that triggers each. The myths that turned out to be real are separated from the ones that never were.
Glitches and exploits
12 glitches cataloged: what breaks, where it breaks, and whether the trick is reliable enough to plan a run around. Community-reported entries are labeled as such.
Covered in the canon
Original strategy guides for these titles: codes, secrets, glitches, easter eggs, and completion routes. They're open to everyone now.
SharkVault is the original-content strategy guide platform for classic and retro games, Atari through PS2, working toward a Top 500 canon, from GameShark Labs.
