Found a cheat code in Goldeneye 64 that still works in 2024

I kept getting wrecked on the harder levels because those guards have perfect aim. Spent like 2 hours looking up modern guides and nothing clicked. Then I remembered the old 'infinite ammo' cheat from way back - you just pause, hold L and press R 10 times. Worked on my dusty N64 cart I bought at a garage sale in Phoenix last spring. Has anyone else found old tricks that still save your skin in retrogames?

Those old shortcuts always remind me how people just Figured things out before the internet gave us every answer.

Isn't it wild how we just memorized phone numbers and directions back then, @viola_lopez30?

Memorizing phone numbers was just how it worked, you didn't really think about it. But honestly, I remember way more random stuff from back then like my best friend's landline number from 7th grade than I do my own current cell number now. Relying on the internet for everything has made my brain just kind of lazy about remembering basic things like directions or numbers. Sometimes I wonder if having to figure stuff out on your own actually helped you learn it better.
