In the old generations of video games, it was not possible to pay to win, instead we used cheat codes or secret codes that developers voluntarily added to games to facilitate the testing period.
The most notable example is undoubtedly the KONAMI CODE (UP-UP-DOWN-DOWN-LEFT-RIGHT-LEFT-RIGHT-B-A) to activate a secret option in most games developed by Konami on Nintendo (Gradius, Contra, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and others).
