How much fun did you have with the Game Genie?

The power codes dude!

Big bulky cartridge that you inserted another big bulky cartridge into.

What was life back then?

With the book of codes you had to input yourself.

I loved my game genie and my game shark. I remember playing resident evil 2 or 3 and the gameshark code was sub machine rocket launcher. Throw on God mode with it. Mass destruction everywhere.

I think game genie had a code for punch out for unlimited stars. I'm not sure though.

Growing up I only used the Game Genie for the NES. I felt like you had to back then because the games were so insanely hard. Getting infinite lives in some of those games were a godsend.

Also fun fact: sometimes I would use the Game Genie and NOT use codes. Sometimes the damn game would work better if it was in the Game Genie thing ha!

The most fun. Good lord game genie was the best.

Back then games were made for local coop with your brother tho so it really was just great for preventing fights

I remember if you used the Game Genie with Mega Man 2 it would mess up all the music in the game. My parents loved that one.
