Action Replay is the brand name of a series of video-games with cheating devices (such as cheat cartridges) created by Datel. Action Replays are available for major modern gaming systems including the Nintendo DS, Nintendo DSi, and the PlayStation Portable as well as older systems including the PlayStation 2, Nintendo GameCube, Game Boy Advance, and the Xbox. Power-saves by Action Replay is a related series of video-game cheat devices that store game saves created by Patel, which allows users to cheat without modifying the game code being executed—unlike the main Action Replay series, which cheats by modifying the game code itself. Power-saves are available for game systems such as the Wii on an SD card and the 3DS.

Typical features

Typical options include cheats, level warping, and display of internal game data, which are not normally seen by the player.

Versions for computers

The ISA-based Action Replay needed memory-resident drivers for the real and protected mode. The card had a grabber, a trainer, and a slowdown feature. It could also interrupt the current game or save it to disk (freezer).

Models running firmware 4.0 and beyond use EEP-ROM instead of ROM and thus are upgrade able.

In December 1998, Datel released a version for Windows 95/98.
