The GameShark is one of the many cheat devices released on the Nintendo 64. The later "Pro" versions include a parallel port for firmware updates and advanced code creation, which many v3.3 units disabled to reduce costs. It also works as a pass-through region adapter in North American and Japan by fitting all consoles or games.
