How to Use GameShark on KiGB

KiGB is a powerful Game Boy emulator for the PC. It allows users to emulate games from the Game Boy, Game Boy Color and Super Game Boy on their computer without the need for a physical copy of the game or the system for which it was designed. Within the many features of KiGB is the ability to directly enter GameShark codes into the program for use with the games. Inputting these cheat codes allows users to manipulate the game to their advantage, and is extremely easy to set up.
