Older games had stuff like passwords or the konami code, but i dont see how those button combos could be figured out by one player. Im guessing some official strategy guides had them but if the game didnt have one or didnt include them, did they just spread word-of-mouth from that kids uncle who actually does work at nintendo?

It was usually done by people reverse engineering the game executable. File sizes were small and no attempt was usually made by the developers to obfuscate the cheat codes. People with know how found them easily and then the information spread through printed magazines and BBSes.
