Manhattan Project Konami code not working?

OK, so I realize the a and b at the end are reversed. I watched a YouTube video and saw that you need to select your turtle(s) before you get the level select screen.

I've tried like 40 times now and it's just not working for me. I tried a and b both ways just to make sure I'm not crazy.

I wanted to bring my nes and this game to a Halloween party tomorrow. I was gonna crank down the difficulty and up the number of lives...its just not working for me. Wtf could I be doing wrong? Any ideas?

    Hmmm. Maybe you've got a different region version of the game cart (JAP or PAL?). I just tested the code on my USA cart and it worked fine the very first time.



    I assume your controller is tested and working fine? Could it be a faulty/inconsistent d-pad/button on the controller that's messing up the code input?



    Edit: Oh, also just to be sure, you're entering the code on Controller #1, right?



    Best of luck.

    I swear I've had the same issue; I had two carts at one point, and one would always fail to work with this code. It has to be something with the cart.

    I didn't think of it being a controller issue. I'll try swapping it out.



    I was wondering if it could be a bootleg cart or something but I've had it since like 1995 so idk.

    I got it first time. Punch the code, select your turtle, and the options should pop up.
