Cheat Switch
You can set cheats to be Off, Always on, Activatable (able to turn on and off while playing a game), or “instant codes”, which I honestly don’t know what they’re reffering to.
When you turn on cheat codes for the M3 Real, there's a short delay of several seconds between the time the ROM loads and the time the codes actually become active. Normally this wouldn't be an issue because it takes a few seconds to get through the title screen, and by the time you actually start playing the game, the codes are already active.
As I'm sure you already know, some "cheat" codes are created to bypass the anti-piracy measures designed into some games that prevent the ROMs from loading. The activation delay became a problem when developers began designing games to initiate the piracy checks immediately after loading the ROM, before the piracy check bypass code had a chance to become active. So the "Instant Codes" option was developed by the M3 Team, which activates codes as soon as the ROM loads, without any delay. Why this option hasn't entirely replaced "Always On" is beyond me, since they both seem to be the same thing, with the only apparent exception being that "Instant Codes" just activates the cheats faster.
Anyway, awesome job with the review, extra points for getting it done so fast. I would only suggest
rotating some of the images so that people don't have to tilt their heads sideways when looking at them
