I've been opening these in Word 2007. It's the only way I know of to see the actual foreign characters instead of a bunch of garbage. It automatically picks the encoding of the text so that's why I thought it was Japanese...Be careful with this method. It's not very reliable. Here's a much better way to view GBA cheat files:
1. Double-click the .cht file, and you'll be prompted to choose a program with which to open it. Choose Firefox.
2. Once you've opened the .cht file in the browser, click on the top menu: View-->Character Encoding-->Auto-Detect-->Chinese
View-->Character Encoding-->Auto-Detect-->Japanese
3. This should be done by someone who can read Chinese and/or Japanese.
It would be awesome if you could find someone who can read both. I can read Japanese, but I have enough knowledge of Japanese characters that I can apply it to reading Chinese to a small extent.

Last release was 2809. Whatever format codes you can find such as Action Replay, Codebreaker, etc will be fine, I can try to convert them. I will post one of the current cheat files here and you can try to translate it for me. Here is the first one that needs translation, it's still got some Japanese in it:

Although some of the characters are in Japanese, none of it makes sense. In fact, the cheat file isn't supposed to be in Japanese, but rather Chinese. Here's what it really should look like:
