Games you needed/need a cheat code/hint to beat

I can only remember on a few occassion where I needed a cheat code to beat a game. All the other games I either didn't bother getting a cheat code to beat cause it wasn't worth it or I just haven't gotten around to getting a cheat code yet.

I am sure I have used millions of hints to help me in a game, I don't know if they helped me beat the game completely but they helped sometimes.

If any of you have used cheat codes or hints to beat a game or to help you on a game, what was the game and what cheat code or hint did you use on it and what did the cheat code or hint do?

FF7 to beat Ruby Weapon and Emerald Weapon.
