Cheating the Pokéwalker with a Phonograph

Part 2 with SIX Pokéwalkers:

As I had to erase the approximately 12,000 steps I had taken on my Pokéwalker due to the Saturday to Monday broadcast, I decided I'd try to find a good way to fake those 12,000 back. This is my method.

Using a phonograph (also known as a record player) and a piece of packing tape, I was able to get the Pokéwalker to automatically accumulate steps. If you attempt this, do NOT tape it to a record unless you do not care what's on it; instead, tape it to the platter. Also, tilt one side of the player up sideways. Without this, the device won't register any vertical movement and thus won't increment the step counter. 78 speed works best.

Don't use duct tape, because that will leave a sticky residue on both the Pokéwalker and the phonograph platter. Clear packing tape works best, but ordinary cellophane tape might work as well.

i cant imagine that doing that is good for your record player, it wasn't designed to spin that much weight, especially when it's unbalanced.

@jaxes88 This phonograph doesn't work right anyway. I've got another one that works better.

u can do this with a cd player, no1 uses cds anymoer so it doesnt matter! :D

[cat333pokemon]

@irtehnublet CDs still far outclass any digital music service that doesn't provide a lossless download.

I wouldn't want to mess up my own records. I collect from aerosmith to Led Zeppelin to Queen and other rock bands and soul an blues and jazz groups. How dare you mess with the vinyl records. P.S. I'm only 13.

[cat333pokemon]

@dandyfireable I'm perfectly fine with the vinyl records and do have a decent collection. I'm just showing off a trick you can do with a phonograph.

And the song in the disc was "I wanna take you for a ride" (from Marvel Vs. Capcom 2), wasn't it?

Laziness at its best!

now that is creative.

I would do the same thing but I have two problems

1: My pokewalker has run out of battery power

2: I don't know if my parents will let me use their phonograph to do that. lol

[discokossan]

creative

[0822kitten]

@irtehnublet I use CDs still...

Actually, lots of people do!

Or lots of people I know anyway.

Also, although I has one letter, you does not. Please take this rule to mind.
