General Cheat Information

RetroPie documentation on cheats can be found here:

RetroPie Docs - Cheats

NOTE 1: Cheats, if available, for retroarch games will be pre-loaded. You can use the above documentation to also add your own.

NOTE 2: Some games require a restart of the game to have the cheats applied, you can do this through the RetroArch Quick Menu.

MAME

MAME based games do not usually have cheats. However, if you hit TAB on a keyboard connected you can access the menu and find DIP switches that will adjust how the game functions like granting more lives, among other cheat like parameters.

Redream a stand-alone emulator and does not use the RetroArch UI. You still use the hotkey to access the redream menu but look for the 'Manage Cheats' Option. Documentation on this seems to be lacking, but find out more information in their post below:
