Action Replay

Typical cheating options include: • Making the player character stronger, such as with infinite lives, invulnerability, permanent power-ups, no collision detection, walk through walls, one-hit kills, super-high jumps, infinite money, etc. • Warping directly to specific levels. • The ability to download, upload, import and export saved games from and to the Internet or a storage device. • Allowing the player to save the game state to disk, so that the game can be restarted from that point even if it does not support saving. • Region-free operation. • Loading of third-party or homebrew applications/games. • Display of internal game data which are not normally seen by the player. ==Action Replay DS and DSi ==

Also known as Action Replay for the Nintendo DS system, this device is a part of the main series created by Datel. The device usually comes with a cartridge, a software disc, and a cable to connect the device to a computer. Unlike future iterations, these versions communicate directly with the game's memory in real time. Because of this, the desired game needs to be inserted within the cartridge and then inserted into the system. Codes are created using the hexadecimal numbering system, and while Datel supplies a rich base of codes, users are given the ability to create their own codes. ==Power-Saves ==

Power-Saves by Action Replay are a related series of video-game cheat devices. Unlike the main Action Replay series, which cheats by modifying the game code itself, Power-Saves store the game saves created by Datel, allowing users to cheat without modifying the game code being executed. Power-Saves are available for game systems such as the Wii on an SD card and the Nintendo 3DS. ==Versions for computers==

The card has a grabber, a trainer, and a slowdown feature. It can also interrupt the current game or save it to disk (freezer). Models running firmware 4.0 and beyond use EEPROM instead of ROM and thus are upgradeable. In December 1998, Datel released a version for Windows 95/98. ==Versions for video game consoles==
