I Think The Internet Killed Cheat Devices
Recently I came into possession of a couple old cheat devices at a couple conventions and it got me thinking. I have not seen a single new cheat device since the original DS. I still remember seeing the package on the store shelf with off brand Pokemon on the front. Until the 3DS there was a cheat device for every console, Nintendo even sued the makers of the Game Genie and lost the suit.
These cheat devices often offered the same things, unlimited lives, cash, skip levels, rare items, and of course the fun game breaking stuff like switching assets or just breaking them. It was all good fun until online gaming really picked up and then the ethics of these cheat devices were put into question. Suddenly someone could use one of these to gain an unfair advantage in a match up and could absolutely wipe an opposing team. These days you can get banned from a game for hacking, or even using a glitch to your advantage.
Oh yeah then there's the professional scene. There are of course the ones where competitors go to a physical arena that is strictly regulated, but some are remote. A quick Google search shows that there have been some incidents.
A bit of a shame that this chapter of gaming had to be closed, even cheat codes are getting more and more rare. I miss the days when you could plug these devices into your console and absolutely destroy your games code. Well at least there's one good thing about servers going offline, I could play a Halo match with my friends with all cheats on with everyone wearing only the sluttiest of maid dresses.
