3 out of 5 stars No cheats for DS games   November 17, 2005
3 kidz mom (San Diego)

My sons bought this because they were told it worked on both SP and DS, which it does - sort of. The cheat codes work only on SP games; there are no cheats for DS. This is clearly stated in the instruction manual but not on the outside packaging. My boys were disappointed because they thought they would get cheats for DS games also because the packaging says that it works with both SP and DS games.

I can definitely really tell when a game needs the use of cheats, and the gamer needs it a whole lot more. That really hasn't been the case for Nintendo DS owners, and the recently conjured Action Replay. The Action Replay code enhancer for the Nintendo DS, doesn't really add up very well. The code device doesn't really offer a whole lot for any help on games for the DS like Super Mario 64 DS, Madden '06, or Need For Speed: Most Wanted. The device does however work well for people who own games for the Game Boy Advance as a double, if you have either the DS or the Game Boy Micro or GBA. There are great codes pre-loaded for the GBA like Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Brothers 3, Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy Kong's Quest, and many others.

All that I can say for Nintendo DS owners, you might be better off waiting for another version of the Action Replay to come out for DS games, but if have just any variation of the Game Boy Advance, or the Game Boy Player for the Nintendo Gamecube, then this might be a better buy.

Code Enahncer: C-

Game Boy Advance usage: B+

Nintendo DS usage: D+

2 out of 5 stars Stay away from this.   December 5, 2005

I tried this with Shining Soul II, game would constantly select the last option on any menu.
I tried this with Pokemon Pinball Ruby/Saphire, worked quite well.
I tried this with Pinball of the Dead, the codes available both online and in the unit did not offer any real gameplay help.
I tried this with Doom II, no codes available online or in the unit!

Pros:
1) Some games work.
2) Menu system is easy to use.
3) Unit can backup DS games.

Cons:
1) Company is not motivated to release new codes for existing games.
2) Unit does not offer cheats for DS games.
3) The scroll to last menu item bug prevents you from playing the games it affects.



4 out of 5 stars Action Replay - Commonly Glitched Device   January 8, 2006

Action Replay's for the Nintendo Handhelds have always been the ones that are least likely to mess up or break on you. Thats why they are a good buy. This particular one is great it comes with LOADS of pre-loaded codes for Pokemon Ruby to Sonic Advanced The few GBA games it doesn't have you can upload teh codes with the cable and disk included with product. My friend let me borrow this for Pokemon Emerald And it didn't have any Pre-loaded Emerald codes so I was screwed. You can Save & Load DS game files and GBA. Great. Too bad Animal Crossing DS: still isn't compatible with it after a month of it's release. Anyways if you sue this to get rare pokemon it doesn't let you trade them pokemon that are in this group are: Mew, Mewtwo, Deoxys. Good thing you can trade Jirachi. Hope you found my review helpful.

P.S. This Action Replay doesn't let you use actual codes with the DS games. All it does with DS games is saves and loads game files. thats about it not much...

Oh, and you can make roms with this I heard.



1 out of 5 stars Big Disappointment -Action Replay DS   January 23, 2006

This product does not have any cheats for DS games.

Animal Crossing Wild World DS is NOT SUPPORTED.

We owned the previous version, and the kids loved using cheats for GBA. When we saw the DS version, we jumped on it. It doesn't do anything usful for DS except save games. And it doesn't even work for my kids favorite.

Don't buy this for your kids - they will be disappointed.
