果然还是高估了制作者的好心呢！

Andy Lee Chaisiri:

"The arcade version of Gradius is really difficult, right? I never played it that much, and there was no way I could finish the game, so I inserted the so-called Konami code."
-Kasuhisa Hashimoto, creator of the legendary Konami Code

“街机版本的宇宙巡航机很困难，对吗？我从来都没有花很长时间在玩这游戏上，自然也就不可能通关，所以我加入了所谓的- Konami code（科乐美秘笈）。”
-桥本和久，传说中 科乐美秘笈 的创造者

Konami Code

Cheat codes originated in the play testing phase of video game development where the creators want to test certain portions of the game so there's codes intentionally put in to make that process easier, such as having a near-infinite amount of lives to progress through a difficult (even for its creators) game like Contra.

作弊秘笈起源于游戏测试的过程，制作者为了使得测试某些特定的部分更加简单，于是在游戏当中故意加入了这些代码，比如几乎无限的生命使得通关一些类似魂斗罗这样的困难游戏（即使是对制作者来说）更加容易。
