As for your nick, I'm guessing it comes from Star Wars' R2-D2.

Can you imagine trying to dash-jump-shoot at the same time, on the GC controller? Ouch.

Hell, I just want a Diddy Kong Racing port. An exact one complete with all the fun bugs and cool-but-useless debugging cheats. It'll never happen, but one can dream...

Although I do not officially have a Game Genie section, I thought I'd mention this code due to its very useful nature. Originally I created the code KKGZSO. Despite some nasty bugs it had, it allowed for many great things. First, it gives you one of each item in your inventory, plus an extra Whistle, and the remaining slots are filled with P-Wings. But that's far from all the potential this code has....

In addition to getting a full arsenal of items, you can start in ANY world you wish simply by pressing Up or Down on the Title Screen! You'll notice an extra cursor moving to indicate this. Also for each press of the A button on the title screen, you gain an additional 5 lives! A sprite in the Super Mario Bros. 3 logo will alter to indicate this. You can press A up to 19 times to get as many as 99 lives in reserve! In addition to all of this, if your timer ever reaches zero in any level, you will not die! This effectively makes some Game Genie codes obsolete. But the fun is only just beginning.... :-)

At any time in any stage, you can press the Select button to alter your current powerup condition! Each press of the Select button cycles through your powerups in this order: Small -> Super -> Fiery -> Raccoon -> Frog -> Tanooki -> Hammer Bro. -> back to Small and so on. Now you must be thinking the code is awesome at this point but there's still one more thing. If you hold A or B while pressing Select, you'll toggle Kuribo's Shoe!! Yes, you heard it here first. This code does it all. (Am I starting to sound like a salesman?). :-) All of this in ONE Game Genie code for the low, low price of $0.00!

In this code's original 6 letter form, it had a nasty bug in it, though. Fiery Mario and Hammer Bro. Mario could only jump a very low height, but they gained a spinning tail for some odd reason. It also caused you to die if you used certain pipes. But these bugs have been fixed, thanks to dso47 on the GameFAQs message boards, who converted my original 6 letter code into an 8 letter code. Now it is KKKZSPIU. I went through every level in the entire game to verify that the game doesn't crash. Sure enough, the entire game is playable with this code! This code works very well with YPXXLVGE so that Mario can re-use any of his inventory items. Now if only Luigi could re-use items too....

In addition to all of this great stuff, you can exploit some fun glitches. To play as a Statue in any power-up condition, first change yourself to Tanooki Mario. Now hold Down and tap B to turn into a Statue. While still only holding Down, press Select. Now you are a Gray Hammer Bro. Mario, who is immune to all attacks, except for pits and lava. You can cycle through your other powerups and remain invincible. The side effect to that is that you cannot enter any pipes. To remedy this, simply switch back to Tanooki Mario to cancel the statue effect. You can also be a statue in Kuribo's Shoe too! Also, if you use a P-Wing, then press Select twice while you're in the air or water, you can be P-Wing Tanooki Mario! If you're fast enough, you can turn into a Statue in the air, hold Down, and press Select 5 times without touching the ground to become P-Wing Gray Mario! Super Mario Bros. 3 will never be the same again. Enjoy!

Graphics are not a must; the only situation where I think they'd be a boon would be if you happen to have long, drawn out summoning sequences that you really use constantly (E.G. FFVIII). If you're gonna see those summons all the time, you might as well think they're pretty to look at.
