Sorry for the doublepost, but whoo, two new users registered in one day, and both are here for
HAX!!
Not SM64DS this time, though, but SM3DW and... SMG! Two new users in one day! How long ago was the last time that happened?

The original SM64DS has two American versions: Revision 0 (v1.0), with some game-breaking bugs, and Revision 1 (v1.1), which fixed those. Their code is clearly different and therefore a hack containing custom code should have a different patch for each revision.

EDIT: BUG REPORT: catching the cap-stealing rabbit on mission 1 of The Lost Valley as Yellow Yoshi crashes the game the instant Yoshi catches the rabbit, due to him not wearing a cap. Great hack nevertheless.

Where is your awesome mod then?
.killux (annoying name, because the period breaks usertags: [user=.killux]) asked a question about SM3DW and because lots of hacking questions don't get answered anymore, I PMed Hiccup if they could look into it.

This weekend, I helped my mom with hooking up her SEGA Mega Drive (Genesis) to her TV (you needed a special cable for that) and now we can play Sonic. Currently on Labyrinth Zone Act 1. The game doesn't save, but luckily there's a level select menu. Read that on TCRF.

Action Replay codes are hexadecimal cheat codes that are essentially on-the-fly ASM patches. They can easily be translated into ASM. Lots of AR codes have been documented for SM64DS, ranging from codes that have been made into SM64DSe patches, like Skip intro, Infinite health, Choose starting character etc. and there are also funny AR codes like moonjump, walk-through-walls and the ones that allow you to play as Signpost.

This thread is for sharing your Action Replay codes for SM64DS, from useless funny ones to ones useful in ROM hacking, either ones found online or codes you found yourself.

Always specify the ROM version your AR codes work with!

Here I have one. Found on a French-language site, so probably for the European version:

Yoshi won't lay eggs from eating enemies/shells/crates until (R) is pressed

6209B468 00000000 B209B468 00000000 10000677 0000FFFF D2000000 00000000

I haven't tested it in-game yet, to see if it really works on a 0022 European ROM and if it won't cause glitches when:
 • entering a swimming state (would normally cause Yoshi to auto-lay his egg);
 • collecting a power-up;
 • eating an actor that never turns into an egg, like the Baby Penguin, fire, Ukiki, Bob-Ombs...

It would definitely come in handy in ROM hacks to be able to choose whether or not to lay an egg.

Bleh, I'm just too lazy to look up the user IDs in the Memberlist (and to memorize them). There are some UIDs I know by heart, like Arisotura's or mine, and you're #2599, but usually I use the usernames in usertags. NSMBHD only allows for user IDs in usertags.

Le updatezorz... this is truly amazing: ChapterCheats works on 3DS again after throwing the infamous SSL connection error for a long time! ChapterCheats was the first site where I posted and where I first used the username Staryu Trek (my first posts were derp posts (you've been warned, loltrigger cringe warning!!!) about Pokémon Rumble World, so that's why my username contains a Pokémon reference). I started as a n00by derpo, but eventually another ChapterCheats contributor's posts about SM64DS glitches (I can't really say "user" as you don't need an account on ChapterCheats), STRANGERR's a.k.a. Ghost-2023's got me into glitch research. And as a result my glitch research and documentation inspired him to keep finding glitches in SM64DS too (see SM64DS Hints and Tips » The great player (//heh) Staryu Trek). If he didn't get me into glitch research, I wouldn't have looked up glitch videos on YouTube, I wouldn't have stumbled upon hack playthrough videos and I wouldn't have become interested in ROM hacking! So yeah, that's where it all started! Now that ChapterCheats works on 3DS again, I might start documenting glitches on there again.

EDIT: Offtopic, since it's not about websites or unmodded 3/2DSes, but about AI: there's a homebrew ChatGPT app for 3DS (called ChatGPT3DS) found on the Universal Updater. I tried it, but needed an API key or something.

I definitely prefer buying original cartridges over piracy (also because they don't take up as much space in the 3DS's memory as ROMs/downloaded games); the only reason I pirate, is because I can be lazy. But modding isn't just piracy. Sure, that eShop clone where you can download games for free (won't mention the name as to not invoke the wrath of Khan Nintendo) is, but most 3DS modding is just homebrew, which is legal. I can make custom HOME Menu themes (Star Trek theme, hell yeah baby), make screenies in every 3DS software etc. etc. etc.

And I'm eagerly awaiting the arrival of Pretendo like a child awaits the arrival of Saint Nicholas, who comes with his steamboat full of presents.

Most people tend to like the rollerskates in XY. Maybe you can post your opinion in the Your controversial opinions thread on Bulbagarden.

But yeah, XY development was rushed, something which you can also tell from the scrapped beta designs of Pokémon that would've been suited to be in the final games, but they didn't make it in and we were left with ~70 something new mons. Oh yeah, and don't even mention Southern Kalos.
