    Nintendo didn't sue Galoob for the Game Genie, they merely got their product removed from store shelves by bullying the stores. Basically a sort of "If you carry this unlicensed product, we'll have to short your order on the latest hit games, because you know there's a chip shortage, right?" Galoob sued and said people had a right to play the game the way they wanted to, and won a $50 million judgement in their favor.

      Pretty great summary honestly. I know Nintendo were huge bullies in the 80’s, but as I understood it they just sued everyone into the ground cause they could… didn’t know they had to get creative/take it to the streets to maintain their monopoly

    From a legal perspective, Nintendo lost the case because the Game Genie DOES NOT actually permanently alter the actual code - that would have been an illegal creation of a derivative work.
    When somebody used a Game Genie, the original cartridge remains absolutely 100% intact, the Game Genie simply TEMPORARILY altered the code for a single game session (and the player is the one choosing how to alter it, not the Game Genie itself).

    Man this brings back so many memories of my childhood. I had a Game Genie as a kid growing up and I would play Mario 3 with it and I would use the Skywalker code and Start and Stay as Hammer Brother which would lead to a glitch at the end of the game if you didn't hold up on the controller's d pad after you defeated Bowser the game would pause forever.

    • @boudreaufrombayu
      @boudreaufrombayu Рік тому +2

    I used to use the same 3 codes: Infinite lives (SLXGLOVS), Skywalker (SXEZSKOZ) and start and stay as hammer Mario (XNKXGLIE). I never realized until much later the Skywalker was saving me from being soft locked in world 6 where tail is required. Also, whenever I beat Bowser while using these Game Genie codes, the door to peach would only open for a fraction of a second and then the game would pause forever.

    • @Bloodstar-o7

  • @Eric-yt7fp

    Common misconception, Nintendo didn't sue over the game genie. Code Masters and Camerica pre-emptively filed suit to legitimize the product. This is also why Sega licensed it, they didn't want to waste time in court. If Nintendo sued the court case would have been called Nintendo of America, Inc. v. Lewis Galoob Toys, Inc. Plaintiff comes first in case names.

  • @jarrod752
    @jarrod752 Рік тому +3

    So you gotta remember the game genie was just an address location and a value to force it to be. Bouncing off an enemy is a different area in the code than standard jumping. You were effectively just setting Mario's jump speed to very high. Your holes in the ground and display stuff is just breaking the level renderer or possibly forcing a specific tile set.

    As the discoverer of the debug mode code (in its original 6-letter format in the 1990s), I explain briefly on my channel (and on my old site) how I stumbled upon the code and how it became modified to the 8-letter code in 2001. The infinite lives code you use isn't really needed, since debug mode can already start you with 99 lives by pressing the A button 19 times on the title screen, just in case you decide on using some other 3rd code.

    About twenty years ago I soldered a Game Genie directly to the 72 pin male connector on an NES motherboard. The NES wouldn't read games very well and it wasn't as easy to find third party replacement 72 pin connectors at the time. It worked every time after that, but since the motherboard wouldn't fit in the case with the GG hanging off of it I made a case out of cardboard and duck tape. You could smack it while it was on and it didn't glitch either. Unfortunately I ended up losing it while I was a couch-surfer for a few years lol 🤷‍♂

    • @VoidHalo

      Welp, I did it. I just used a level editor to shift the ground at the end of 1-1 4 spaces to the left so there's a pit right at the end of the level. Mario just walks over it like nothing. I confirmed I could fall into it and there wasn't just some invisible floor.... But what if there's an osbstruction that keeps him from walking off screen? Or a spike wall. Or power up. So many things to try. But I feel like Mario will just walk through them or they won't have any affect.
