5 out of 5 stars Dunno how I ever did without this!   October 26, 2008
 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I'm one of those gamers who just loves to cheat, and playing emulators via PC the emulators usually have a built in game shark or something. I loved the fact that they had those things built in, but have been hesitant over the years to buy one for a proper system.

You always hear stories about how these things work once or twice, then they never work again, or they corrupted game files & data, and the system never worked again ect...ect.... yawnnnn.

Recently I have started to play a few DS games and I just wanted some invincibility codes and things like that, but there where no cheats for certain games to do such things.

So I checked out what was available for the DS on ebay and found one of these Action Replays going cheap. I thought i'd look into it a bit first, to see what people say about it, and judging by reviews found here, It almost made me not want to purchase it. I gave in thinking that it was only a few bucks, it wouldn't scar me to at least try it.

And man, am I glad I did now!!

I have no idea why there are so many bad reviews for this thing, it is very easy to use, and makes gaming a lot of fun when you have decent codes.

It's simple to use, all you do is stick the Action Replay into your DS, power it on, and it comes up with a screen saying this is not indorced by nintendo, blah blah blah.... then says, inert your game.

So you eject the A.R, pop in your game and it says for eg: "Mario 64 DS" detected. Then what you do is hit a (*) icon on the screen and see what cheats you have for it. It comes with 100's of codes built into it, which you can delete later if you want, but right away there where plenty of cheats for Mario 64 DS and they worked great.

Once you've selected your cheats, you hit start and begin to play the game with your codes on.

Thats all there is to that.

The other cool thing is it comes with a little CD to install an updater. And a little usb plug to plug into it. You just install the software, plug the cable in while the AR is in your DS and it's turned on, and it goes to an update screen on the DS.

You have 3 boxes on the program, one is what codes are already on your DS, one is a saved codes file, which is all the codes already on the A.R, and then any more you choose to save there. And the 3rd box is where you get your updates. By default it only comes with updates from CodeJunkies for Pal, NTSD and Japan games.

But it is as simple as doing a google search for "Action Replay Subscriptions) and you can find plenty more to use.

Newer games may not be on the action replay by default, and displays "unknown game" when inserted. But it's just a search from your subscriptions from that game, and just drag the file from the subs box to the A.R box, and thats it, it's on there now!

As I said, it's simple to use, anyone can do it, the only thing you can't do is search for codes to make. It doesn't do the value search thing like other ones, but I never could do any of that stuff anyway, so I'm glad it's not on this.

There is nothing wrong with this thing, I think some reviewers may just not be able to figure out how to work it, or how to update it and hence, it's a bad review of a device that supposedly does not work. But hopefully if you read how I explained it, you can work it out, or read the manual that comes with it.

We were unable to get this device to work with the DS. It seems that all the data was removed. We would really like to simply return for a refund but suspect that because it is an electronic device that refunds are very limited.

I bought this item for my grandson's birthday. He reported to me after receiving it that it was AWESOME. I live in Canada and my grandson is in Australia, so Amazon is a great way for me to send presents. I think you are also AWESOME

The software does what its suppose to do. I just don't like pluggin it in the ds, then taking it out to put the game in, then putting the Action replay back in again, just to take it back out. But, like i said it does the job. I found that cheating makes the game boring though because there is no challenge.
