Game Boy cartridge tilting

Game Boy cartridge tilting is an exploit for Game Boy and Game Boy Color games, involving gently tilting the Game Pak.

This exploit is more likely to result in a freeze than Nintendo 64 cartridge tilting, however on rarer occasions it can be used to put the game into a glitched state.

It is ideal to perform this glitch on a Game Boy Advance or Game Boy Advance SP with a Game Boy or Game Boy Color game, as the Game Pak sticks out significantly on these consoles.

This exploit may also be performed with Game Boy Advance cartridges, very likely resulting in a Game Boy Advance freeze sound.
