Man, now I want to dump my Action Replay DSi, but I might just get a Game & Watch collections ROM
We're talking about the action replay by code junkies correct? Although i can dump roms with my 3DS i can't dump this one, it doesn't fit in the new 3ds slot which is my problem. But it should be able to fit in the old 3ds. If it had a9lh installed you can use hourglass9 to dump NDS roms.

Yeah, I have a o3DS with a9hl and decrypt9 installed, but I'm too lazy too dump it right now.

By Datel. Codejunkies is their website.
I know that, just making sure we are on the same page. You buy it from the website.:mellow:

Anyway why would a rom exist? If you have flashcarts, the idea of a rom is pointless, it already can use cheats. It would explain why no one ever published a rom dump. Not to mention how would you use it? Swapping roms the way the action replay requires isn't possible on flash cart. The game needs to be rest to do that.

If you mean the ROM then

I am not sure what, if anything, of great interest they will contain. As others speculated the modern ones, if dumped by conventional tools, will contain little more than the protection bypass game ( https://hackmii.com/2010/02/lawsuit-coming-in-3-2-1/ for more on that).
I know some of those working in cheats had various memory dumps they poked around to do things like http://doc.kodewerx.org/hacking_nds.html#arcodehacks . I don't know how public any of those dumps and anything gained from it ever became.


If were thinking can I run the action replay and use it on my real games then no, you can however do that with nitrohax

Some more on that enhacklopedia link above as well.

Personally I would dump saves from my real games and use them to cheat on ROMs/emulators, and maybe then flash the save back, but to each their own.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
