I emailed him urging him to participate, but unfortunately he was too busy. But he did point this out to me via email just now:

I gave a quick look to the topics and I have a question:
Why isn't there any "the select button in Konami games" topic?
It's the first thing I would have done, given the name of your forum.
The codec alone makes it, but there is actually a series of Konami
games that gave the select button an interesting function over time.
It's a bit late but I think it would have made a great topic and
forced people to go back and check all the Konami games they know and
own, under a different angle. |
so! in gradius you use select if you want to use the konami code with two people!
what does the select button do in other konami games??

Well to get the obvious out of the way it's used to make/receive codec calls in the MGS games.
In Contra III the select button is used to bring up a map during those crappy above view stages. |

Select is the menu button in Suikoden because in four our of five Suikoden games you can play one handed if you like.

There's got to be something more interesting than those blue and white maps...

I like how Konami makes Suikoden more masturbation-friendly than Rumble Roses. |

Sarsamis, I love your avatar.
I was just playing Castlevania III and the select button switches your characters.
Also, select in MG Ghost Babel makes you crawl, but thats sort of because they ran out of buttons. |
