Game Genie: plug the cartridge into the Game Genie, then the Game Genie into the console. Enter up to three codes on the start-up screen and press Start.

Emulator RAM codes (address:value): in RetroArch open Quick Menu → Cheats → Add New Code, or load the matching .cht file from libretro-database.

Action Replay: enter the code on the device's code entry screen and enable it before launching the game.
