Ghouls N Ghosts has the Jap title screen, but when yanking out Space Harrier 2 and putting in Ghouls N Ghosts and just resetting some of the data from Space Harrier 2 is left in the memory of the Genesis. Hitting reset isn't like turning the power on & off, info can be retained from the last cartridge in the system, and since the N64 has a reset button it can be done. Easier analogy. To use the Gameshark with a game that requires a Keycode you have to start out with a non Keycode game, i use Goldeneye. Select the Keycode you want. Power Off the N64, then replace Goldeneye with the game you want to play, we'll use Zelda: TOOT, and then Power On the system. There's data that says in the Gameshark while the power is off, and you can't use the Gameshark after that unless you turn it on with Zelda: TOOT plugged into it. How's that?

How's that? Also keep in mind that the N64 hardware was designed specifically to allow hot swapping. I think this is a safety precaution so that when the N64 is jarred while in play, the games don't lock up, ala the SNES. As for your gameshark analogy, It very detailed. But I fear "little kiddies" , will have trouble with all that complex work. I mean, its even more complex than hot swapping. Then again, GameShark is most popular among those age group. So much for belittling those little kiddies. har har har. - -- Dexter S.

I've pulled Mario 64 out with ease (by accident; forgot to turn the system off first :o).
