Ocarina of Time beta stuff.

I've been reading about a beta mode that was left in OoT. I understand you need a gameshark 3.0 to access the beta realm and mess around in it. But I don't have a gameshark so we're not doing that. ;p Is there any other way of going about this knowing that I'm using a rom to screw around with?

I think that there's not a way to use it without the GameShark, There's also one in Super Smash Bros. Melee, but you also need a GameShark 😞 . And where did you read about that beta mode?

I've been using PJ64 1.6. The only gameshark support I see are the codes it already has pre programmed in. I don't see any other way to enter codes other than the ones that are already there. Though, there are codes for beta mode, but they look like they're for when you're already in beta mode. And they make PJ64 crash anyway.

Cool link man.

Before OoT came out, there was a Nintendo Power issue with 100 preview pictures, all from the beta version of the game. They were pretty interesting, and it is amazing at how different (and how much better) the final version turned out.

whoa i just spent almost 2 hours on that link. thanks man. brought back soooo much nostalgia. OoT WAS my 6th grade in a nutshell.

Try right-clicking on the list of codes in the gameshark code menu. If that doesn't work, you could always find the file which actually contains the list of codes (cheats.chm, I think) and edit it manually.
