A guy over at Assembler made some nice codebreaker codes for the games. I asked him for video displaying both aspect ratios.
4x3 standard aspect
16x9 Widescreen aspect

DEmul and NullDC Widescreen Hack Instructions (Cheat Engine)viewtopic.php?f=37&t=49228&start=45#p1121389This is pretty awesome, hopefully this can be patched into iso's of the games with ease for those of us using 16x9 displays.

Codebreaker is the same thing as Gameshark and Action Replay. It is a console game hacking tool. It comes on a disc you used to be able to buy at game stores. I believe these codes should also work on Gameshark as they use the same hexidecimal system to hack the games. You can find an iso of Gameshark around on the net that is hacked to save codes to a VMU instead of a special Gameshark memory card.

I am going to test it with Shenmue 1 first.
Shenmue 1 is much easier to mod.
Once Shenmue 1 is done and finished, I'll then look into Shenmue 2.
To make a long story short, I am going to hack the PAL Hz switcher into a resolution trainer menu.

Can someone tell me how can I use these codes on emulators or actual hardware? I need another "master code" don't I?
