Reviewing Reviews
To be perfectly honest, I don't own the Action Replay, though I would like to. I am only reviewing to let the uninformed buyer know that they should ignore the two people who gave the Action Replay a bad review.
This 'christina swan' person I can forgive, as she apparently doesn't know much about game systems. I'll tell you now, a cheat system CAN NOT ruin the game system itself. I own a gameshark for the N64, and I know that the dumbest thing you can do with one of those is to put in a bunch of random characters and hope it's a good code, and even then, the worst you could do was ruin the gameshark itself. If you want my opinion, the kid probably left the Gamecube open too long, letting dust or something get on the laser reader, blocking the laser and rendering the Gamecube unable to read discs. That happened to me before, the guy who did the repairs said that happened a lot with laser-disk based game systems like Gamecube and PS2.

As for the I HATE ACTION REPLAY guy, I'm gonna have to come up with a list for you:

-The codes are a bunch of numbers and letters, it takes you over two hours to put in one code.

*These codes are meant to actually change how the Gamecube reads the game, so you can keep the health meter stuck on full and stuff like that. Can you appreciate how much programming code is used to pull off something like that? Feel lucky you only have to put in a few letters and numbers. And as for the two hours, can you say exaggeration!?! I really doubt it would take even the slowest gamer that long to put in codes. Besides, learn to put a little effort into what you do.

-Codes only give you stuff like infinite lives and extra characters, who in their right mind would want that junk on their game?

*Oh, for the love of... It's a CHEAT SYSTEM. You're supposed to *gasp* CHEAT WITH IT!! Who in their right mind would want that on their game, you ask? Everyone but you, apparently.

-The price is too much.... it should be less.

*It's worth how much it cost the company to make it, plus some for profit. If you don't like it, don't whine to everyone on Amazon about it.

-Also it doesn't work on my super nintendo.

*Oh my...I'm sorry, I didn't know you had mental problems. You see, kid, a system that's made for a Gamecube usually works on a Gamecube, not the Super Nintendo. They're completely different systems, you see.

-Datel can't make cheat systems, they should jump off a bridge.

*I hate to stoop to your level, but here goes:
Considering your arguments, I think the world would be done a much better favor if YOU were to jump off a bridge. A high one. That happens to be over a pile of jagged rocks.

Actully, that felt pretty good. Anyway, last one:

-Don't buy this...instead go by the amazing Etch-A-Sketch.

*Why? If a person is looking for a cheat system, how would a toy drawing pad help them? And, no offence to you Etch-A-Sketch fans, but I don't see what's so amazing about it. Please come up with a decent argument next time.

If anyone wants to argue about this some more, feel free to e-mail or something, especially if you happen to be anything like this I HATE ACTION REPLAY guy. I'm here 'til Thursday. ;-)

Works well, but has a big downside
The Action Replay does everything it is rumored to do. All the codes work perfectly. However, there is a big downside. If a code is not preset, you must manually set it. This may not seem like a hard task -and for some codes it isn't- but some codes can be up to 30 lines long. Doing this with a control stick can be quite tedious. I find myself deciding not to use the Action Replay sometimes because I don't want to spend the time entering a code. I've heard people say this software is user-friendly, I don't know where they got that from.
