game genie codes to uncap the level and speed of mixed match in SNES "Tetris & Dr. Mario"

here are the game genie codes i made for "Tetris & Dr. Mario" for SNES. they uncap the options in mixed match, including level and speed.

normally the tetris level is capped at 10. but if you wanted to, for example, play tetris on level 18, this game genie code lets you do that!

if you scroll past "HI" when selecting the dr mario speed, the names look really glitchy, and as far as i can tell there's no pattern to the actual in-game speed of each option (which makes sense). the speed immediately after "HI" is "-1Y", which is very fast (maybe the fastest possible speed?). i always find it fun to try to play with -1Y; it makes clearing dr mario feel very rewarding :)

note that point scaling doesn't work correctly when selecting higher levels/speeds. i actually like this: it evens the playing field if i'm, for example, playing against someone who isn't as good at tetris as me. i can just select a higher level to give myself a handicap, while still scoring roughly the same amount of points for line clears.

here they are:

at some point i might write a blog post with a deep-dive on how i made these codes and how they work, but i dont feel like it rn
