Do you consider these cheats?

Cheating to get Hubbat., FCR or any other thing that isn't in the American version?

NCP Compression.

Do you consider all of that fair?

If you use a game altering device (action replay, gameshark, etc), then it's cheating as far as I'm concerned. Program compression is a normal part of the game, and is fine.

He's talking about BN5.

Well, if there's no other way, the dubbers prolly didn't want you having it in the first place, so...

I find that uing an AR or Gameshark is fine if you've beatn' the game and just want to get the most out of your game. I mean if SCR isnt available in the NA version of MMBN 5 for DS (for example), then buy all means go shark it. Games are for amusing you and if you get more play time out of you game buy "cheating" then go for it but if people still want to battle you after that, thats their choice.

To an extent. If it's something that was normally accessible in the original game, I think so . . . Of course, I shpose you could import the game and get it, but if it's one of those things that you get in events that don't even happen here. Of course, those're usually not NEEDED in the game.

The way I see it, cheat all you want, but then you deserve no credit. I remember my friend used to brag when he beat me in games, but he always cheated. Of course eventually I got really good and slaughtered him, but yeah. But if it's something just used at your own leisure that doesn't really accomplish anything I don't see a problem with it.

I'd classify cheating to get event exclusives and such as "permissible cheating." It's forgivable, since it's not as if you're cheating to give yourself some unreasonably fair advantage. Unless you're hacking for a Bass GS chip or something. But if you're doing that it's not like you're going to be a formidable opponent anyhow.

You can't even get Hub/Saito Batch in the Japanese version without cheating Sad

. I agree with Malinhion, though. Cheating to get something exclusive like FCR would be "Permissible Cheating" since there's no other way you could get it. As long as your 'ill gotten' BCM doesn't have 9999 HP then I'm fine with it. The Ereader cards might be another story though.... Since in 5 there's a way to get those with cheating as well. I suppose if you don't exceed 80MB with your ill-gotten cards then it's fine too, huh?

I know these two people who both had 9999 hp in bn3 and their charged busters did 999 damage. Hardly anyone wanted to battle them except each other.

I don't like cheating myself, but I though in BN 5 DS FCR was open to both players...

anyway, i never had a case of cheating (unless er well, i never cheated in my life).

I'll stop now.

Cheats should only be used to obtain the unobtainable. Nothing else.

SPOILERS

BN 1 needed Forte (which sucked badly regardless of high ATK). BN 2 needed Gateman SP, and the 4 elemental Gospel chips. BN 3 needed ForteGS (Black/Blue needed Punk as well). BN 4 needed Grandprix Challenge and Duo (not sure about Final Gun). BN 5 needed Leaders Raid and Nebula Grey (also not sure about Final Gun for this one).
