  Reminds me of a Rug Doctor rental machine I saw that was proudly displaying the default Raspberry Pi OS background and a login prompt

  There’s always a chance for hardware damage chaining devices together that were not designed to be used as such. To keep your hardware safe don’t use it in ways that violate the manufacturer’s guides and recommendations.

  In this case? Probably just wouldn’t really work, might corrupt save game data.

  Based on my (admittedly not incredible) knowledge of how those devices both work, they intercept reads for specific memory addresses from the CPU and insert their own values. As long as they both weren’t set up with codes to modify the same address very little would happen, it would behave as you might expect.

  If the two both had codes that modified the same address the Game Genie would “win” here since it is physically closer to CPU in the chain. It would see the address matching one of its codes and spit back its value, neither the cartridge nor the Action Replay would see the memory read occur.

  I got that post directly previously in my feed. Get out of my head, get out of my head
