The '''GameShark''' is a cheating device designed for the [[Nintendo 64]] console; it was not released for later Nintendo systems. GameShark is frequently used to hack ''[[Super Smash Bros]]'', similar to how the [[Action Replay]] is used to hack into ''[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]''. Apart from simply cheating at the game, it is useful for accessing content that is not normally available, such as the {{SSB|debug menu}}. Common examples include fighting in [[stages]] (such as {{SSB|Final Destination}}, the "demo" stage, or even beta versions of Kirby's level) and playing as a normally unplayable [[character]], such as [[Metal Mario]], {{SSB|Master Hand}}, [[Giant Donkey Kong]], or a member of the [[Fighting Polygon]]s.

*Users have the ability to see the [[Congratulations screen]]s of every character in the game. However if they attempt to view the Congratulations screen of an [[unplayable character]] the game will [[game crash|crash]].
