My Package arrived from youruglyclone today with the very nice Hey You Pikachu in it :)

Although, with there being a region lock chip (or so i believe) i can seem to boot it using my adapter. (Dont forget im a PAL region'er!)

I then tried using my adapter, then an action replay in, and managed to boot the action replay.

I was wondering if there were any action replay codes i could use to disable the lock out chip so i can play this game and be a 10 year old again :D

Cheers

All N64 games have lockouts, maybe the refresh rate is causing issues with the microphone or something, and that's making the game not boot.

And the more I think about that, the more nonsensical it sounds. I'm assuming other NTSC carts with with your adaptor? Maybe try it without the mic plugged in.

SuperNES: Probably not much, I saw tons of copies marked at ten bucks during the final days of the N64, and they weren't going anywhere. A similar situation to Pokemon Snap and Perfect Dark...

I've got Hey You Pikachu! and got it to work on my UK N64 by using a Passport III and one of the inbuilt codes on there (for another game) but I don't know if it'll work with an Equalizer (which I think I have one of somewhere). Might be worth picking up a Passport III from Lik-Sang or Play Asia.
