* Action Replay EZ compatibility: The Action Replay EZ is designed for the original Nintendo DS, not the DS Lite or DSi. While the DS Lite is backward compatible with DS games, the Action Replay EZ is not compatible with the newer consoles.
* Code Compatibility: Action Replay EZ uses codes that are specific to the original DS. These codes may not work on SoulSilver, which is a DS Lite/DSi game.
* Software Updates: Nintendo has released firmware updates for both the DS Lite and DSi that often patch out cheat codes. This means even if you find a code for SoulSilver that works on a DS, it may not work on a newer system.
Alternatives:
If you want to use cheats on Pokemon SoulSilver, you'll need to explore other options like:
* DSi Action Replay: This version is compatible with the DS Lite and DSi, but it still might not have codes specifically for SoulSilver.
* R4 Card: R4 cards are flash carts that allow you to run homebrew software, including cheat codes. You can find code packs for various games, including SoulSilver.
* Cheats Available Online: Some websites offer cheat codes for SoulSilver, but these may require a different cheat device or a different method of applying them.
Important Note: Using cheats on Pokemon games can potentially affect the gameplay and make the game less enjoyable. It's best to consider the impact of cheats before using them.
